"In what sense?"
"I have honestly never heard of the gay....er...guy."
"No, he was the 'old dirt road' variety."
All this hate and contempt just because he was not heterosexual. He gave many millions of dollars and his own time to charities and "respectable" people in need. Including over $3,000,000 to Childline (a British charity which helps abused children). He made most of his large charitable donations confidentially, clearly without any desire to benefit from positive publicity. What could be more Christian and philanthropic than that?

Whatever.
According to the book...it's "an abomination".
Quite a bit.
Christianity isn't just performing good works. Most antiChristian actions are immersed in good works.
A common emotional response of the carnal man is to perform a good work to satiate a feeling of guilt, thereby justifying his behavior to his conscience.
Christianity is very different. It is a living fellowship with God Himself.
