No it's not segregation, it prudence, its obvious. Not that i hold very many ministers in any regard.
The office of minister should always be according to the scriptures.
I also don't believe there should be divorced, or fornicating ministers, drunkard ministers, lovers of money, gluttonous or any other deadly sin ministers, the position has been degraded enough.

godspeed,

freedom

In that case the internment of Japanese Americans during WWII could be seen as prudent, but I still call it racial profiling or racism.
So you could say that the Christian church is guilty of sexual preference profiling which still is discrimination.

Nothing to discuss honestly. You want to discuss a subjective view. You like this, I like that. Pointless.

This topic was about Gay Ministers within the Christian Religion. The objections I have had in this has been according to the claims that it is valid within the confines of Christian teachings.

We did have a disagreement over the definition, but I think you use too much subjective interpetation to come to that conclusion and I honestly don't wish to argue with you over such trivial issues.

So you win. Good for you, here is a brownie. /shrug

You could say that, i would say the church is trying to hold onto its last shread of morality and honor, in a sin infested organization of Jesus did it all, i need do nothing.

But that has started to change, i think the heat was turned up to fast on that old frog and its ready to jump out of the pot.

Tares and wheat are dividing.

godspeed,

freedom
