I couldn't believe what I was reading! Then again, it comes from the Washington ComPost, so why should we really be surprised?!

If you ask me, this so-called "new gay theology" is a greater threat to the fabric of western civilization than Osama bin Laden and the rest of his al Qaeda thugs.

I pray that the forces of darkness do not suceed in destroying the church as we know it. The good news is we already know how this story will end.

BTW, this post is not meant to bash gays, as that would be very un-christian like in my opinion. The purpose of this post is merely to stand up for the TRUTH.

Everyone has free will to choose the lifestyle that suits them best. What bothers me is when that lifestyle is used to blasphemize the Word of God.

Certainly, not all gay people are guilty of this crime and should not, as a group, be unfairly singled out.

Rationalization. My gay sister is the queen of it.
Truth is gray. It's not how it is but how you feel.
Geez Louise!

One of the followers is singled out in John 13:23 and 19:26 as "the disciple whom he loved," which itself is "remarkable," Jennings said in a May lecture at the seminary, affiliated with the United Church of Christ.

It truly is sad when these perverts equate love and lust. In other words, if you love someone, you must want to have sex with them. How disgusting.

Homosexuality is a gift of God that somehow requires massive doses of modern antibiotics to counter the myriad of diseases that it promotes.

Redefining theology is how 10,000 denominations of Christianity came to be. This is nothing new. Just ask Henry the Eighth.

This is a reversion to Old Testament behavior, and the consequences will be similar.

This must is certain. When a church EMBRACES sin as the Episcopal and other churches have done, they CEASE TO BE A CHURCH. I-C-H-A-B-O-D

Yes it is by a lot. The problem is that there is no political gain to be made in pushing a war on the homo agenda. Easy political gain can be made by exagerating the threat of terrorism though.

Very bothersome indeed. Those who support the new "Gay Theology" ought to read the letters to the churches in the first few chapeters of the Revelation of John and continue through to the end of the book. WHen they are done, they should start again at Genisis and read through the whole bible - they obviously do not understand the situation.

Oh well, GODS people do hear His voice, and Gods people do have the "Truth" revealed to them, and Gods people WILL be saved, as for others, well, I just dont know...

It has nothing to do with WP, this stuff is real and has been at work by professors of theology teaching our clergy for decades.

a diverse and increasingly vocal movement called "queer theology" will create an impact on Christianity matching that of the 16th-century Protestant Reformation.

"Complicating the biblical debate, both sides acknowledge, is the lack of any explicit discussion of same-sex relations in the Gospels, the heart of Christian theology that includes the life and teachings of Jesus.

This is a lie. I would like to know their sources. The Bible is clear about same-sex relations.

I also found it interesting in how the attack on the two angles in Sodom is not a "homosexual" issue but a rape issue.

Contrary to what is report by these "queer believers" Jesus never promises a world of peace. He promised peace for his believers. The world will be destroyed.

It would be helpful if they read their Bibles before establishing a church. It may help them doctrinally.

Queer theology "pushes the need for sexual reformation" that will make the world a more peaceful and loving place, not only by including gay men and lesbians but also by viewing all forms of sexual expression between committed partners as an "original gift of God," said Goss, professor of religious studies at Webster University in St. Louis and a former Jesuit priest.

The Sodom story, for example, might appear to condemn same-sex relations, but it really tells the story of an attempted rape, said Goss, author of "Queering Christ."

Webster University retains a former priest as a professor of religious studies. Apparently, they are not in the least concerned over his reasons for leaving ... or ... being defrocked from his order.

The Catholic Church has already taken its stance. Homosexuality is disordered! CONSIDERATIONS REGARDING PROPOSALS TO GIVE LEGAL RECOGNITION TO UNIONS BETWEEN HOMOSEXUAL PERSONS

As for other religious denominations, one branch of the Episcopal church has already elevated an active homosexual to the position of bishop. This was done through 'interpretation' of the Bible, which supports the arguments put forth in this WP article. Any doubts as to where this is headed? Check out this link, created by a lesbian minister who married 'the love of her life' in a Lutheran church ceremony last year. You'll certainly want to see their "Wedding Album" (click on the link). Just make sure you do so on an empty stomach. And, yes, like the former Jesuit Gross, she too believes that scripture has been misunderstood.

"Where there is a genuine tenderness, an openness to responsibility, and the seed of commitment, God is surely not shut out. Can we not say that God can enter any relationship in which there is a measure of selfless love?"
1963 Quaker publication

"Reconciling Journey: A Devotional Workbook for Lesbian and Gay Christians" is an invaluable resource for anyone going through the process of reconciling their faith and sexuality. The workbook provides scriptural passages, reflection questions and guided meditation, presented in a way that's practical, engaging, and inspirational. Reconciling Journey is one of the finest resources for gay and lesbian Christians to come onto the market in a long time!

Like a cancer, this disordered view of scriptural interpretation is spreading rapidly!

The first quote in the Postie article is from one of YOUR locals--a homo from Webster College. Thought you'd be really pleased...
