		<description><![CDATA[&quot; A generation ago even non-believers had a moral compass. We could all agree generally about what was right and what was wrong. Homosexuality was considered morally wrong.&quot;

- I love that Christians seem to be suggesting they have the monopoly on morality. As if without your evil little delusion, that has been responsible for Centuries of oppression, torture, and murder; we&#039;d all be worse off. 
Homosexuality is just love.
Perhaps Christianity should be considered immoral? I certainly regard it is as an utter disgrace. I have a moral compass as a non-believer, and it tells me that your delusion is one of the most vindictive, oppressive and evil cults the World has ever had the misfortune to have to endure. 
Damn right i&#039;m intolerant of the Christian Right. Because without that intolerance, we&#039;d have to put up with you imposing your fairy tales on the World, through campaigns of fear and hate. The lovely little old gay couple who live two doors down from me, who are in their 70s and both say hi, and ask how I am, and how university is going for me, who look after our dog when we go on holiday and who don&#039;t have it in them to say an unkind word to anyone, would be forced to understand that in your disgusting little eyes, they&#039;re immoral and heading for hell.
If hell is full of lovely people, and heaven is full of Christians, I look forward to my time in hell.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[What you said to that young person was very insightful and thought provoking.  I agree wholeheartedly.

I think that homosexuality is a hot topic right now for a number of reasons.  One of those reasons is that it illustrates that our country is without a moral compass.  A generation ago even non-believers had a moral compass.  We could all agree generally about what was right and what was wrong.  Homosexuality was considered morally wrong.  Now, Christians feel like they are standing alone in a world where morality has been thrown out the window.  And we stand in a world where the &quot;left&quot; that &quot;preaches&quot; tolerance, has become very intolerant and even violent against those who believe in Biblical values.

You quoted from II Timothy that Scripture is used for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness.  Hebrews also tell us that God&#039;s Word is living and active, and sharper than a double edged sword.  While I think it of the utmost importance for us to live out our faith for others to see, and that we show Christ&#039;s love (&quot;love the sinner, hate the sin&quot;), I also think that it is imperative for us to let God&#039;s Word work.  We must know what it says and we must use it.  It is a living word; it speaks to even the hardest of hearts.  It is a sword that knows just where to slice!
We need to use it to teach, rebuke, correct, and train, and we must learn to do it in love.  Therein is the hard part!  It is easy to &quot;preach&quot; and hard to &quot;love&quot;.  We must combine the two and let God work.]]></description>
