Ahhh, the story of Jesus and the adulteress women. Liberals favorite bible story and the one they LOVE to use to hammer Christians over the head any time they attempt to even meekly condemn anything as sinful....Except they completely misinterpret it. For one thing the entire incident wasn't a parable to teach a moral lesson, it was an actual event, a "trap" that was arranged by the Pharisees in an attempt to put Jesus in a no win situation. If Jesus had condemned the women, it would have undercut his entire ministry of forgiveness, but if he had not condemned her, the Pharisees would have attacked him for abandoning the law and the ten commandments. His "He who is without sin, cast the first stone." essentially threw the decision back in their faces. What the liberals miss, is that Jesus DID condemn the sin, he just offered forgiveness from the death penalty which would have been required under the law." The point of the incident is not that Christians can never identify or take a stand against sin, but when they do, they also have a responsibility to tell the sinner that Jesus can and will forgive, if you just ask.
Translation: If Christians were calling for Gays to be put to death under old testament mosaic law, that would be wrong and not in the spirit of "Jesus and the adulteress women". However just to say publicly that Homosexuality is a sin or to shun those that practice the sin, is perfectly acceptable for Christians (in fact some might argue a duty).

You're right - the left has turned this one story into a false mantra - that 'nothing can be judged'... Which of course they only use against us. (Which IS a judgement by the way...) Elite liberals are the most thoughtless judgementalists on the planet.
