i don't have a problem with a man expressing his views, though i personally try not to hate people.

i read a verse in the Bible recently where Jesus said something like 'you will see tax-collectors and prostitutes entering the kingdom of heaven before you'. that doesn't mean He approved of these lifestyles, He just meant nobody is beyond hope.

well, maybe tax-collecting is an unpardonable offense. =)

he also said this as a warning to all the holier-than-thou types. humility, not arrogance.

thanks for your thoughtful reply.

I agree about the tax collectors...ha.
