I don't get this at all, the Bible condemns adultery too but that seems totally acceptable now but in the New Testament which is the new covenant and also we are told contains the speeches and words and teachings of Jesus from which Christianity is supposed to be totally based on,his direction,his example, I have read all four gospels which are the only words and events attributed completely to him and in them he doesn't ever make a single reference to homosexuality whatsoever,

It is from the writings of Paul in the New Testament that the homophobic comments come and he seems to me to have been someone who either woke up in a good mood some days or on others in a foul mood and started attacking all sorts of people in his anger.Whether they were Romans, Women or whatever inclination some may have.

Discrimination is wrong full stop and listening to this couple on TV early today, I wasn't sure they were saying all they would wish to on the subject.using words like as to dealing with a child with homosexual leanings that they would talk to the child when it was not feeling adequate because of homosexual feelings. Not feeling adequate??

Jesus, whether people believe in him or not, but Christians are supposed to,he preached love for everyone, forgive everyone everything, never judge or condemn anyone. From what I see and hear of many so called devout and practising Christians,there is little or even none of those actions being done to others by them.

tbh If that's what they would do with a homosexual child then it's best they're not allowed to take children anymore, that could very damaging

I agree niamhxo, I just felt watching them that they were holding back on some maybe more extreme and prejudiced views they may have.Very odd terminology they used. In my opinion that is.
