You omitted the part where Christ would say “When you are having sex with other men, that is wrong, but that wrong is not enough to take you outside my love. Repent, be at peace, go and sin no more”.
The judging part is way out of context also. The Bible teaches christians that they will “judge angels”, they are to “privately rebuke some one that is sinning” and “teach righteousness”. New age cafeteria christianity, where you load up on the love & grace and blow off the holiness & righteousness makes for christianity warped beyond the gospel.
Fine, again, we disagree.
To me, the most significant portion of the Jesus quote, which you two left out, is “Neither do I condemn you.” For you, it appears to be the other half.
Such disagreements in interpretation and in emphasis are the reason that there are so many different factions of the Christian faith, even factions within factions, such as differences in belief between Missouri Synod Lutherans and other Lutherans, for example. This is only natural.
As for myself, you could say that I have a different view of what ALL religion is and of what the Christ story was than probably most members here. I recognize that. I am largely a fiscal conservative, somewhat a social conservative, but not a religious conservative.
With regard to this news story, I would not condemn this person, but rather start by talking to him about what led him to this new decision.
