Jesus and churches who truly follow Him would welcome all sinners including homos. But they would not back down from informing homos they are sinning and encourage them towards repentance.

Quite agreed — Jesus as Savior from sin would be a significant feature of a sincere church, and because of this, the temptation to stratify sin would be resisted. The repentance move is to embrace Jesus for His love with the intention to use this love to get right with Him looking towards eternity.

Buggery (and other sexual sin in the sado-masochistic vein) is an idolatry-of-hostility move. But it can be mighty addictive because we are all born sinners. The only real antidote for this is love of a divine quality. And that love can only be acquired through an embrace of Jesus.

The archbishop is right, ironically. “Jesus, we shouldn’t be here.”
