Jesus weeps at Prop. 8, for both sides...

i may be inconsistent and it may disturb a lot of people for saying this, but i don't think what the bible says about homosexuality is the point, in some ways it is clear (mainly regarding the sexual behavior) and in many ways vague (wasn't an issue of relationships or being as it is now), but i think like many other things we can discuss as sins, the most important thing is how we respond to it as followers of Christ. yes, i know, some have accused me of being soft on sin and thus soft on obedience. i beg to differ. i personally believe that we are called to follow Christ as our model in life (in character and mission). and thus my understanding of Christ is that how we deal and face sin in this life is with agape (perfect love). this is more complex and organic than one might think. i'm not calling for a hippie-like everyone's okay life. i'm saying what's missing at the core was, is and always will be love (that which is given to us by God as generously and undeservedly, thus grace). by dealing with life (and people) with love is far more powerful, effective, important and practical (realistically) than what majority of Christians are dealing with homosexuality in this country. in short, i believe this love and the way to deal with life with love means we utilize what agape is (as revealed throughout the Bible) as initiating and intentional in understanding the "other", forgiveness as act of courage, seeking wholeness for people in hopes of making holy people, learning to see and treat people with the dignity and value deserving of an Imago Dei, and thus showing the world that there is a good news to what is wrong, missing, imperfect, unjust, oppressive and violent...agape.
