It's really difficult for Christians when their children turn out gay. You think you're bringing them up in the nurture and admonitions of the Lord and oops, all of a sudden you find out that they're homosexual. It's hard for any parent, Christian or not, but I think for Christians it's difficult because we know how God feels about it and it's sin. None of us wants our kids to get involved that way because it's downright dangerous spiritually as well as physically and morally.

We've had several children in our congregation who have gone int hat direction. Thank God that one of them, a young woman, has repented and turned away from it. Another one has split with her partner and one can only hope it won't happen again. One young man is gay but that didn't surprise me when I heard about it. My ex-daughter in law has two brothers, twins, who are gay. It's a devastation for her parents who love them. None of these parents have turned their backs on their children, though. Prayer has certainly helped. Gays CAN be delivered from that lifestyle, no matter what the world thinks.

My Roman Catholic inlaws had eleven children. The youngest chose a homosexual lifestyle. Although I'd long ago guessed that he was heading in this direction, it was a shock to his family, especially to his parents. I love him dearly, but as scientific research is showing that societal influence is what probably what causes homosexuality, then it is clear that it is not a biological issue. As someone here pointed out: it is a choice and choices have consequences. It is up to anyone who chooses homosexuality to know what those consequences will be and to be accountable for his or her choice. But the feminists made sure that victim mentality would prevail and hence, no one feels the need to be accountable for anything anymore. It is easier to continue doing whatever floats your boat and blame someone or something else for any leaks.
