I'm sure by now everyone has heard about the brouhaha (fun word!) surrounding Chik-fil-a. I have decided that I need to weigh in. So here it is:
First of all, many people seem to think that the president of Chik-fil-a was attacking homosexuals. I find it unsurprising that they've missed one very important fact: he was simply answering a question! He did what anyone - on either side - in his position would do: state his company's position. Whether you agree with that position or not doesn't matter.
So now we get to the real point...
So here's the truth. Not what anyone thinks is the truth, but the Truth: Jesus preached unconditional love despite people's sin. He never. Once. Said that sin was okay, or excusable. Just that we are to love people despite it. Now I don't know about any of you, but it seems to me that means that we're supposed to love everyone, from the person that tells a little white lie to the mass murderer to *gasp* the person who sleeps with someone of the same sex! I could go through and find plenty of Biblical evidence - both Old and New Testament - that clearly says no to homosexuality. But that's not the point! It's not my - or anyone's - duty to judge people based on their choices.
