[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So you were highly invested in adhering to what you believe is the absolute word of God on sins such as homosexuality. Are you equally invested in calling out other sins, such as adultery or greed?[/quote]
Not the PP you were responding to, but the basic answer to your question is that conservative, traditional Christianity is not beset by people trying to make adultery and greed acceptable within Christian doctrine, [b]unlike the movement to normalize homosexuality within the church[/b].[/quote]

Well said, monsieur/madame.[/quote]
The movement to normalize greed in the culture and church has already won. It was subtle, maybe you missed it. We are all guilty.

I agree that the church has allowed sins such as these to creep in and take more influence. However, there is no church that I know of that AFFIRMS greed and adultery as good or even neutral things.[/quote]

The church is complicit in the greed that infects the Body and says nothing about adultery. Do you think because no church "affirms" adultery and greed publicly (like on their website? in their creed?), these things  simply "take more influence?" No, They destroy relationships and keep people from knowing God.  Yet you don't write pages on DCUM against pride, greed, gluttony, murder, harming CHILDREN, but you choose to make homosexuals your scapegoat. I suppose it frees your conscience to do so, that way you don't have to see beyond the clearly unstated AFFIRMation of the church in the sins that harm our culture and the children of God far more than any homosexual ever could.

Anyone who is okay with heterosexual adultry and payoffs to porn stars but has so much trouble with homosexuality that he or she writes diatribes like this is struggling with something. I will stop posting and try to offer love and compassion, as Jesus would have. [/quote]
