“This is sin on a level that most churches ignore. This is sin; meaning,
that which destroys. That which is destructive, which causes hurt in
other people and perhaps even in your own life. When people lose their
jobs, aren’t promoted, are discriminated against, are treated
differently, are described as `gay’ as an insult, get kicked out of
churches, and are disowned by their families, that is sin.”
– Pastor Jay Bakker, from his book,
Faith and Doubt and Other Lines I’ve Crossed: Walking with the Unknown God,

It's nice to know that just because you love God doesn't mean you have to hate us or discriminate against us. Jesus was always about love. Why can't people cherish and hold on to that most important message of his instead of a handful of ancient laws that disapproved of homosexuals, shellfish, interwoven cloth and piggies while approving polygamy, slavery, stoning and rape? You'd think it'd make sense unless you're a crazy person trying to justify your bigotry.
