I would disagree with you and refer to the Bible on the definition of ‘love’. We are to love the Lord first before family and friends. When we love someone, we respect their wishes. God has made his position on homosexuality very clear.

Matthew 22:35-39

One of them, an expert in the law, tested him with this question: 36 “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?”

37 Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’38 This is the first and greatest commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’

All I can say is, you go to your church and I’ll go to mine. I am speaking of a person who has been closer to me than even my own brother. Your church may call this an abomination, I can’t call it that.

Doesn’t mean I’ll vote FOR mixed marriages, but that’s because I don’t want them indulging in the perks that normal marriages offer.

Flame away all you want. I will never stop thanking God for allowing me to have such a wonderful friend in this lifetime.

And, FYI, I’m out of time to post today....so don’t waste your time and bandwidth trying to get a rise out of me. Be back tomorrow.

Sorry we can’t agree, but more sorry that you may have never had a friend as good as my friend. It was a gift.
