This is a very timely article for those who might suggest that there is an egalitarianism of sin.

>Being drawn into conflicts over homosexuality profoundly discomfits us...

This guy is complaining about "discomfort"...

Oh my.

Any Christian who thinks he should be "comfortable" in "this world" needs to read the New Testament again.

Actually, you've confused 'discomfit.' which means to put into a state of perplexity and embarrassment, with 'discomfort,' which is to make uncomfortable. I think you need a glance at Webster's Dictionary more than this author needs to re-read the New Testament! ;-)

Thanks for the ping, FormerLib. I'm so far out of circulation where I live that, believe it or not, I hadn't heard of Touchstone. After a few minutes scooting around their site, I've ordered the complimentary copy. So, thank you for the introduction, too.

Thanks, Manny. This article is a good argument against the "all sins are equal" position.

Too bad the full text wasn't posted here. It should be in our archives.

The size of the article made me reluctant to post the entire thing. Hopefully, people won't mind clicking the link to read it.
