<DIV>Tell me, why don't you criticize adulters as much as gays? And some in your church have committed sexually immoral acts; no doubt some are <SPAN>adulters</SPAN>. Why not use your fake name to publically condemn them? </DIV>

<DIV>Evangelical Christians are getting it? There is nothing for Christians to get in that area. The Bible is explicitly clear concerning homosexuality.

<DIV>These verses are pretty self-explanatory (whether you agree with them or not). So Christians that are beginning to accept homosexuality are going against their own faith. I'm sure you would say that people are entitled to believe whatever they want, and while you obviously don't agree with Christianity very much, it should be pointed out that those "Christians" in the gay parades are the ones not getting it. Christians should treat them just like murderers, enslavers, liars etc. Christians preach against it, pray for them, and minister to them, just like murderers etc. No bigotry here. But that's obviously not how you see it.</DIV>

<DIV>Art- You sure draw a lot of conclusions and create a lot of conspiracy theories by not attending the conference or visiting the churches you attack. </DIV>
