Gay Priests

CNN:

Episcopal churches in California and Minnesota moved toward appointing gay bishops over the weekend, less than a month after the denomination lifted a self-imposed freeze on promoting openly gay clergy into the top ranks of the church.

For too long, many Christians have used spot-checks in Scripture to exclude groups from the radical equality and freedom before God that serve as the base of Jesus' Gospel message.

Why don't they just make up a different religion! Christians? Well, Jesus love us all, but he hates the sin! This is mocking his word. Why would you proclaim to be something you do not believe! You cannot believe in half the bible or just the parts you agree with! You believe in all or none! We all fall short of the glory of GOD, but who are you fooling yourself?

Well if you do not like it that is just the way it is!

Well, you cannot handle the truth!

Sorry if I hurt your feeling, but the truth will set you free!

jesus denounced some sins as being ridiculous(working on the seventh day, eating certain types of food..) He never mentioned h.omosexuality at all.
Make up your mind which testament (old/new) you're going to espouse, you can't have it both ways.

Hint: Jesus wasn't in the old testament. Try reading the bible, before lecturing others.

Yeah, Jesus didn't like gays at all. He said so many times. I just can't find a quotation.

Geeze, how many gays does the Episcogay church need? It is getting tiresome. This is clearly a dying denomination. Don't expect this to get past the censors at Huffpost, but it is the truth.,
