So if a whole bunch of holy people were getting ready to stone a homosexual, do you suppose that Jesus would walk up to you and hand you some rocks? Or maybe he would say something like, "Let he who is without sin cast the first stone?"

Personally, I don't oppose giving federal appointments to homosexuals, but I do think there's a difference between stoning them and not giving them federal jobs.

No one is saying anything like that. Why would you?

He would say "Let he who is without sin cast the first stone?" and then say "go and sin no more".

Jesus did not accept vigilante justice any more than he accepted prostitution or homosexuality.

He certainty would not promote the homosexual or prostitute within his ranks until after they had repented of the sin and accepted him as Savior.

Thankfully your point is for not as I never condone violence against gays, nor did I suggest it.
