Funerals for Christians are easy. We know where they are going.
Funerals for perverts are bad. We also know where they are going...
and don’t like that direction one bit.
Theology and ad hominem attacks aside, the whole issue can be solved with one statement: Their church, their rules. Don’t like a gay-unfriendly church? Simple. Join another church that allows for such behavior. Until then, learn to feel like a second class citizen in a church until you follow their rules fully. Don’t go crying to momma government about how you think you were treated unfairly.
Problem is figuring who is which
So...no Christian church of any kind should hold a funeral for a homosexual since you've already decided which direction they're headed?
I agree that a funeral shouldn’t celebrate the sin, so I go along with the Church. But, that said:
1) All funerals are for sinners, period.
2) We do NOT know where each individual person goes (there are no advance copies of the Book of Life, to my knowledge). We can assume dear Aunt Edna went to Heaven, and can assume limp-wristed cousin Eddie went to the other place, but in reality we don’t know what God did in the last moments of anyone’s life.
