It's important to make these guidelines across-the-board rather than homosexuality-specific: Churches should not promote gay activities in the same way they should not promote other actions that the Bible says are wrong.

Jesus said that those who divorce and remarry are committing adultery. Should churches refuse to allow pictures of someone's second wife and family on the grounds that it promotes an adulterous life-style?

This topic has been beaten to death on half a dozen posts since it surfaced. The long and short of it is thatgiven their position on the matter the church should probably never have made the offer in the first place.

To answer your question, yes. I could never figure out how today’s Christian churches are so against homosexuality (and rightfully so, based on what the Bible says), yet gloss over that part on divorce and remarriage.

Jesus states that both are wrong, yet you’d never know it with the way divorce and remarriage are so mainstream in today’s churches.

Jesus said that those who divorce and remarry are committing adultery.

But He also acknowledged that there were legitimate causes for a marriage to end, did He not?

And did He address marriages where one party is deceiving the other?
