I’m not a supporter of the gay movement, but that doesn’t mean that I don’t love the people and consider them my family and friends. It breaks my heart that people think that being gay is the worst thing in the world. Such as Larry here, and what happened to him.
I just read in our local newspaper about Fred Phelps and how he’s out protesting at military funerals and stating that God hates our ‘gay America’ and all that. That’s horrible. It’s so not how God works! God says to LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR, and that includes neighbors of all kinds. It doesn’t just mean the nice “normal” family that lives next door. It could mean the gay person from across town.I know that God doesn’t need to be defended, but I hate that He and the rest of us as Christians are getting such a bad rap because of idiots like Fred Phelps. Hatred is wrong no matter what.
The same with abortion–the “Right-To-Life” advocates that shoot doctors or harm nurses/techs/anyone that goes into those clinics. There’s one thing to stand at the doors and protest, but it’s another thing to start taking ‘justice’ into your own hands.Love the people.
(hate the sin, but LOVE the people!)
