The most compassionate thing any Christian can do for a person with homosexual desires, is to help lead that person out of the "gay" deathstyle.

Imagine the Baltimore reprobate described here were a pick-pocket and that her date were a pick-pocket. Imagine they show their affection for each other by picking each other's pocket in a ceremonial celebration of all the pilferage they have committed against other members of the student body. If the crowd "booed" them, they would be engaging in the kind of shaming Mothers Against Drunk Drivers routinely use in calling attention to a social sin--shaming the offender.

The loving thing, of course, is to lead homosexuals out of this lifestyle, but the love usually can't start until the homosexual feels enough shame to seek help. If, however, the shameless libertarian wing of our movement insists that there are no social, spiritual, or economic costs associated with homosexuality, we will go right on paying for every new strain of virulent death bred in the caldron of people who eroticize their own excrement.

You got it. On the money.
