[Looking for Diogenes]

Nowhere, in either Christian or Jewish cultures, religion or beliefs is homosexuality tolerated or condoned.

Homosexuality is tolerated and condoned by a number of Christian denominations (Episcopalians and Church of Christ for example) and by Reform Jews. George Washington and other Founding Fathers worshipped as Anglicans (Episcopalians). If the church of the Father of the Country approves, why all the arguement?

I grew up attending services with a Church of Christ and I assure you that homosexuality was never condoned to my knowledge. Anything I ever heard a preacher say about it was negative. Either you've heard of some weird congregations or you're thinking of the United Church of Christ (a different denomination).

Can't speak for the United Chruch of Christ, but the Episcopalians only dropped the position that homosexuality was a sin about 25 years ago, in the general liberalization which drove thousands of believers out of the Church. The Church that Washington attended certainly did not tolerate or condone sodomy, whatever the position of the Protestant Episcopal Church of North America today.
