"why don't you criticize adulters as much as gays?"  Personally I do just as
much, but I don't "criticize".  If you are referring to "you" as just
myself.  But if you're referring to the church in general, they probably do
just as much, people like you and others on this board however just don't
like to focus on that.  "my church"?  As in Christ Church?  I don't go to
Christ Church.  But I know they completely ignore adultery.  In fact, Doug
Wilson recently joined a Adultery Parade.  Come on.  When they've had issues
like that, they would take care of it just as much as if they would have
been homosexuals.  Those are serious answers.  Insult free.
