I posted simply to explain to you why Christians (who do believe that Jesus is God, hence their being Christians) are generally anti-gay.

Yup. No worries. Understood.
We each find our own truths in our own way.

No doubt they will change in the years to come with new knowledge and experience.

...you've all lost me.

What has Jesus got to do with any legal arguments regarding gays or does the bible now form part of the UKIP Manifesto?

Much of our law about such matters came about as a result of pressures from the C.of E.

Apart from that absolutely nothing at all.

"came about" sounds fairly past-tense to me. :wink:

Of course they should, if they want to, same as hetrosexuals should, if they want to. It's all love, isn't it.

Well, yes, it is.
The pressure to resist change is still there though.

So, change is good!
Let's abandon this web site and raise the blue and gold flag over our houses. Surely the urge to resist change in such a way has no founding, has it?

I'm all for change when the change is practically useful.
Blue an' gold flags don't have any positive practical use.
All they do is irritate folks.

Some men really enjoy a drag on a fat cigar now and again. I don't smoke, myself.

I don't have a problem with those who care to do so - as long as they don't wave it in my face..... :wink:
