I agree with you... I am about as fundalmental as you can get as a Christian with me not having a Santa Claus at Christmas and not taking part in Holloween and no abortion at all as it is an innocent life, HOWEVER, this is not a reflection of law that Jesus prescribed to. Stealing, killing, being unfaithful to your spouse were some of his laws he prescirbed to.

Outlawing unsavory sexual positions with another person isnt something Jesus commanded man to uphold in the name of human decency.

I am not an advocate of this disgusting act but in my learning, these people are to be won over with Gods word, not mans law.

being unfaithful to your spouse>>

Ok, you talked of Jesus and the things he abhored, you brought up the above. I want to correct you--Jesus also abhored promiscuity of the unmarried type(Go and sin no more Mary M.) and at the very least I think as Christians we can agree that since a man and man or a woman and a woman could NEVER marry in God's eyes and with His blessing, no matter if it is made legal in the state's eyes, than homosexuals ALWAYS are displeasing to God at least in the realm of promiscuity and unmarried sex. I think it would have been more genuine for you to say you don't think the state has a hand in changing this behavior if that is what you believe, but to say that Jesus somehow sanctioned, or at least turned a blind eye to it, it ridiculous. If that is so, than why is there even a need for you to win a homosexual with the word if Jesus had no problem with it? Your priorities seem a little mixed up. We tell the Santa tale, but he is presented as the Saint he was and as a believer in Jesus Christ, we however do not let our children believe a fairytale that Jesus tolerated immoral behavior like homosexuality.
