A thought about Homosexuality in Christendom
This is about gay christians, not gay non-christians, who don't have the same basis with which to be held accountable to. I think homosexuality in non-christians isn't even an issue at all. This is a thought about people who are Christian and who are gay.
Homosexuality is an important issue but I think that people make it a more important issue than the other issues that every christian struggles with, when I think it's on equal grounds with them.
For example, I know a lot of people who go to church and who also have premarital sex, it may be disapproved of by the church but it's not condemned in the same way homosexuality is, yet they both fall under the issue of sexual morality. The difference in my mind is that gay people would struggle with it a lot more since it's perceived as a part of their identity and something they don't have control over, as oppose to a mere lack in discipline.
The truth is I doubt that a single one of us is perfect in their ways and behaviour and we all have areas that need growth and areas that we may not even be aware that we need growth in, and areas that we unrepentantly practice that goes against the standards of Christianity. Not one of us is scriptually perfect and I don't see why homosexuality is put up there as worse than anything else any of us may or may not be guilty of.
