Hey, I'm not a Christian, but the way I see it is this:
If you aren't willing to live by the Church's ( or the synagogue's, or the temple's ) rules, then you ought not to be there.
If you can't or won't live that way, the only thing to do is stay out and SHUT UP about it.
right. I never understood someone who joins a group,club, church,etc. knowing the rules , but then wants exceptions
made for them or they want to change the rules
