“To the extent there are those born with homosexual affections”

I don’t believe anyone is born with it. It is learned behaviors.

For those looking for alternatives to the Boy Scouts, here’s a good list of options.

So you can be a thief in your heart and it's ok with God as long as you don't steal?

God will take away the desires in his time. Are you claiming to be perfect and never, ever have a sinful desire - is that what you are saying here?

No, I'm saying your 'rightly dividing the word of the Lord' is imprecise, i.e., that it is ok to be homosexual as long as you don't act on it.

Oh, so you're not perfect but somehow God is OK with your sinful desires you don't act on but he's down on gay desires that people don't act on. YOu must be one special dude that God gives you a whole different set of rules.
