I can see why Abraham’s reaction would be an unacceptable topic of discussion for you, sadly.
You claimed:
"The only passage at issue is the division of sheep and goats as taught by Jesus, and recorded in Matthew 25"

You then contradict yourself by quoting:
Mark 12

That's what liars do - contradict yourselves, and Christ - whose teachings on the doctrine of Marriage are clear:
=============================================
Matt 19:4-6
4 "Haven't you read," he replied, "that at the beginning the Creator 'made them male and female,'a 5 and said, 'For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh'?b 6 So they are no longer two, but one. Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate."
NIV
John 14:24
24 He who does not love me will not obey my teaching. These words you hear are not my own; they belong to the Father who sent me.
NIV
You forgot to mention that I also alluded to 1 Corinthians 13. Both that passage and the one in Mark shed invaluable light on Matthew 25.
Nope didn't forget - just didn't need to. One self-contradiction on the witness stand is enough to expose the nature of your sheep-skin-clad lying character, Wolf.
Futhermore, Abraham didn't congratulate the Sodomites on their perversion like Gorsuch allegedly did: “Joshua Goodbaum served as a clerk for Gorsuch in 2009, and now works as an attorney. He told Reuters on Friday that on the week of his 2014 “wedding” with his partner, Gorsuch expressed his support. “He said, ‘This is a wonderful thing. You’ll see how your relationship grows,’” Goodbaum recalled."

Few men in Abraham’s place would have reacted as he did.

What is Gorsuch’s version of that scenario? Does he support the lone testimony, or contradict it?

So you are giving this practicing—indeed, ‘married’—homosexual absolute credibility? This is because you believe homosexuals to be of such upstanding, unimpeachable character and veracity that when one makes a claim, you know it absolutely and positively to be true? In your eyes, no further substantiation is necessary, because when a lone homosexual makes an assertion, you consider the matter settled?
It appears your approach is, ‘On the word of a single homosexual, truth is established.’
I can’t agree with you there. I’d need to hear the other side of this issue. If a homosexual made a claim about you, perhaps you’d like to be allowed to give your side of the scenario, before the matter was considered true/settled?
Why don’t you just go join the church of Thelema instead of subverting Christian doctrine?
My unwillingness to give absolute credence to the claims of a lone homosexual is subversion?
It just seems you'd be more in your element at a “church” where “Love is the law, love under will.” -- Instead of wearing your sheepskin and subverting the body of Christ, His Church.
His Church - that's identifiable by how its sheep adhere to His clear teachings on the doctrine of Marriage.

The word of the homosexual is not absolute. Any fair person would allow Gorsuch to give his own account. Christians, bound by the Golden Rule, would be even more obliged to allow Gorsuch to speak on his own behalf.
As for the rest, all I have done is call attention to the words of Jesus, and to related Scriptures. The words of Jesus are absolute.

It's not surprising the "Queer Christ" doctrine isn't subversive in your fantasy world, Wolf.
Meanwhile - The doctrine of Christ's Church on marriage is absolute:
MALE and FEMALE.

The subversive doctrine of the church being discussed in this thread is CLEARLY contradictory to the ABSOLUTE teachings of Christ:

4 "Haven't you read," he replied, "that at the beginning the Creator 'made them male and female,'a 5 and said, 'For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh'?b 6 So they are no longer two, but one.

I objected when people dug into the PERSONAL lives of Clarence Thomas. Even dug into the type of books he checked out of the library. Stop the witch hunt.
Sarah Palin was criticized by the left for attending an evangelical church. GASP. Stop the witch hunt.
I’m interested in Gorsuch’s opinions not his church.

Me too, but one isn’t going to attend a church for very long that has an antithetical position to their beliefs and values. Has he had any cases that came into the realm of social value issues?
