Pretty clear from the way the article is constructed, that ABC is not interested in an objective discussion of the obvious issues. (Including the one that goes to how any Biblically based denomination can even dignify the ABC point, by discussing it as an option.)

Now it is not that anyone is calling for a revival of stoning pits, or any extreme reaction to those "coming out."

But why, one might ask, with perfect good will, should those who engage in very "controversial," at least. behavior, not have the self-respect--as well as respect for the sensibilities of others--to keep it to themselves? Why this endless, "in your face," exhibitionism?

“Why this endless, “in your face,” exhibitionism?”

Yes, who could be behind it (so to speak)? Could it be anyone other than the father of lies?
