When masturbators and adulterers begin appearing on stage demanding that we accept them as "normal" paragons of society, then we'll talk

Where have you been since 1960? Adultery and masturbation were accepted as "normal" by most people long ago. Our churches are full of people who don't have the slightest problem with receiving the Body of the Lord with the same hands they jerk off with. Our churches are full of remarried divorcees. Our churches are full of birth control users. Our churches are full of people who occasionally step out for a little slice on the side. Why no thundering sermons against any of them?

Because they'd vote with their feet, that's why. Condemn the homos from the pulpit and it's no big deal. Condemn the birth control users and masturbators from the pulpit and the new Family WorshipTainment Centre doesn't get built.

If we're going to hammer the homos, honesty compels us to hammer the divorcees, adulterers, fornicators, masturbators, birth control users, and unwed parents just as hard. To do otherwise makes us hypocrites in the eyes of the unbelievers -- and also in fact.

There is a rather pronounced difference between a sin that is tolerated and one that is actively promoted by political action committees. I believe Planned Parenthood are "children of the devil" and worthy of withering ridicule because they are actively proud of abortion and promote it as having social utility.

The next time I see a "masturbation rights" rally, or my city hangs out flags to celebrate adultery for an entire month, I'll let you know.

Almost no one I know considers masturbation or adultery "normal" -- including most of the people who think it's perfectly fine to live the "gay" lifestyle.
