“It felt really important for us to say that we believe LGBTQ people are beloved children of God, not in spite of their identities but because of who they are – who God created them to be.”
If God created them as gay, then why does he ban them from inheriting the kingdom of heaven?
Ichabod
Assuming the Glory was there in the first place.
such BS.....
The Episcopal Church is all gay, all the time.
Really - they have to try hard to promote homosexuality as much as they do.
Is this a joke ?
The final resting place for this unrepentant sodimite is hell followed by the lake of fire.
He is experiencing right now eternal torment by a just God for sins committed and not covered by refusal of God’s priceless gift.
Until now I never knew the part about Matthew being a drug dealer and his dealer partner was actually the murderer. Wow.
His family seems to be in total denial about the real reason Matthew was murdered. Of course the Rats will perpetuate the myth that his death was due to anti-gay hatred.
So are they going to literally dig him up every 20 years to remind people who had nothing to do with it that they need to be guilty for his death like Burr Oak Cemetery does with Emmett Till?
There you go, letting facts ruin a leftie narrative.
a gay dude killed another gay dude over a drug deal and that means straight folk are bigoted and so he should be buried in the National Cathedral?
Where do they hatch this logic? Is there some secret stupid machine in DC that people get to visit once a week?
Why not? Years ago they decided each bishop could run his own church - provided that the ruler of England approved.
My Catholic Church has its share of issues/problems, but some Protestant denominations haven’t the slightest link to Christianity anymore. They’ve ignored not only God’s punishment of Sodom & Gomorrah, but also the sanctity of marriage as expressed by Jesus Himself, the male priesthood as instituted by Jesus Himself, the concept of Hell as described by Jesus Himself...Islam has stronger links to the Bible (at least the Old Testament) than many Christian denominations.
I predict a stained glass window depicting it in the near future.
...All this creative energy has been based on an important central premise: that Shepard was targeted solely because of his sexual orientation. According to conventional wisdom, he met his killers by chance in a bar, told them he was gay and left with them when they appeared to respond to his advances. They started attacking him almost as soon as he climbed into their pickup...
...All three of them, Jimenez argues, were involved in Laramie’s crystal meth subculture, as users and dealers. McKinney and Shepard may also have had a casual sexual relationship.
“Shepard’s sexual preference … certainly wasn’t the motive in the homicide,” Jimenez quotes police investigator Ben Fritzen as saying. “What it came down to really is drugs and money.” A number of other sources close to the story and the protagonists confirmed much the same thing.
