I agree with David's seven points. I remember my Mother's teachings about sin. She educated us about equality of sin in God's eyes--not the world's. My LCMS Pastor clearly held forth the teachings of Scripture when he instructed us in the "just as if I" had done it: I remember him saying that if I/he had said just one bad word ever in my life or in the history of the world that Jesus would have still died for that one sin and sinner. After many years of observing in friends the aftermath of homo and heterosexual pain, reading what homosexuals themselves say and, by no means declaring that this makes me an expert, I have come to know what, in addition to Scripture---which says clearly it is wrong---the homosexual folks say about themselves: that is wrong and that it is a choice. I quote them. I agree and will continue to pray for anyone struggling with any kind of sexual sin ----hetero or homo. I take great comfort in God's word in Ecclesiastes: There is nothing new under the sun. And Christ died for all!
