"Perhaps God loves both."

Jesus Christ made it clear that God loves us all. But please point out where Jesus said that God was OK with people proudly living in sin?

I agree with you 100%. God is never ok with sin, especially willful sin.

Mr. Rogers seemed to understand something though:

People don’t care what you know, until they know that you care.

I am quite judgemental and critical, of myself and others. It’s my nature, but Mr. Rogers was right. He didn’t seem to condone, excuse, or justify homosexuality.

Lying, cheating, stealing, being a hypocrite, doing drugs or alcohol, slutting around, cussing & swearing, blowing our money, seeing violence and sexuality as entertainment, not taking care of our families, being stingy, rude, inconsiderate... we are all guilty to some degree or another.

Divorce was once looked upon the way homos are now. Having sex prior to marriage or outside of marriage was taboo at one time, as were so many other things we engage in today without blinking.

Who are we to judge? We Christians are to judge those who claim to be Christians too, and as such, we should all remove the plank from our own eyes before we go worrying about the eyes of others. I don’t know that those homos claimed to be Christians. If so then the bible tells us how we should go about pointing out their sins, and it’s not publicly through a journalist.

That’s what God is teaching me and it’s a hard lesson.

I’ve turned my life around so much over the years yet the closer I get to God, the more aware I am of my shortcomings. I am filthy in his sight. He loves me anyway. Hates the sins I do but he loves me.
