I do not wish to arouse any conflict with the well meaning Christians of the world,but anytime Christians are asked to think logically about their religion(it always inevitably,offends them and puts them on the defensive).
You hit the nail right on the head with this statement.
IMHO true Christians don't get involved with issues like this if those issues do not involve them. In other words they live their religion and don't try to push it on others. I try to be that way: that is live by the golden rule.
For example neither the wife nor I are for abortion and in fact we would never have one. But we don't believe they should be outlawed like some demand. That decision is between the woman, her conscience, and her God. We feel the same way about gays. That is their choice to live like they want to live not mine or the governments.
I know a number of Christians who don't care how others live as they believe those people will go to hell, as they prepare to go to heaven.
