jl, your responses were far more measured. You are a better man than I. When I think of self righteous on this forum, you are not one of the posters that come to mind. You are firm in your positions and very often humble as proven by your willingness to admit to your past transgressions. You are well versed in many subjects, including the topic of homosexuality. To say that you are in over your head is laughable.
Thanks, TAdams - let's just say I've had a lot of practice at this sort of thing; and I don't have to resort to fake arguments, since the simple truth is right there for all to see, if they want to see.
As I just mentioned to someone in a freepmail, my favorite story of the Bible is the Prodigal Son. We're all prodigal sons, each and every one of us, and God is the wonderful father who has never rejected us, although we've rejected Him. He's waiting for us right now!
Homosexuals aren't the only ones who have turned their backs on God. But not everyone holds parades celebrating their faults and sins, or gets judges to promote them.
Good night to you!
