(CNSNews.com) – The Very Rev. Gary Hall, chief ecclesiastical leader and executive officer of the National Cathedral in Washington, D.C., said in a sermon on Sunday that “homophobia” and “heterosexism” are sins.

“In its wisdom, the church came to its senses and labeled both racism and sexism as sinful,” Hall said. “And now we find ourselves at the last barrier—call that barrier homophobia, call it heterosexism.

“We must now have the courage to take the final step and call homophobia and heterosexism what they are,” Hall said. “They are sin.

He’s wrong, though. After they take this ‘final’ step, there will be yet another step to take, another sin to extirpate-islamopbia. Only then will the progressive vision be realized. Of course, the pews will be empty at that point, but that’s the desired result.

Everywhere is freaks and hairies
Dykes and fairies, tell me where is sanity
Tax the rich, feed the poor
Till there are no rich no more

Id love to change the world
But I dont know what to do

never understood about homophobia. I am not afraid of homosexuals. I don’t understand homosexuality. Nor do I see why we need to normalize it in our laws and social policies. But that hardly means someone has a phobia about homosexuals.

These destructive perverts are big on creating labels to try to silence people. We need to turn the tables on them.

They hate what is good, normal, and truly fulfilling. They want destruction and despair; they want to destroy goodness.

Maybe they should be called intolerant savages or some other label.

It isn’t up to a Church to decide what is a sin when it is written in the Bible. This is no man of God.

Like Obama he is making his own Executive Orders and denying the Bible.

Lots of church “leaders” think they’re God. They rewrite the Ten Commandments before too long.

Sodom wasn’t destroyed because of homosexuality. Sodom was destroyed because God couldn’t find ten righteous men.

Gay marriage is really a pedophile loophole to marrying children. Homophobia is a term to attack those raising objections to such practice.

Fulfilling is the key word is. How can someone be described as anything but sane when they deny the fulfillment of the opposit sex and they wallow in low self esteem envy as they compare themselves to people of the same sex.

Same sex attraction is a sickness; like many other mental illnesses or addiction. Not crime to suffer some degree of mental illness, many of us for example have bouts of depression.
But to normalize the behavior and attack those who point out such behavior as abnormal is the problem.
