This a very good topic indeed. It's one of the most thought provoking topics I've seen here in awhile.
I will venture and say that many people feel as though homosexuality is a chosen thing, that's why people don't feel bad about hate speech towards them. Me personally, I'm indifferent about homosexuals. They neither threaten or enhance my life. I don't see a reason to discriminate against them so I don't. I do think that it's foolish for people to discriminate against them on the basis of their sexual orientation. Even if you believe that homosexuality is a sin, you shouldn't hate. After all, Jesus never preached hate. While I don't advocate the hatred and the discrimination of gays, we must all be real and know that we have all done things of a predjucial and bias nature. Let's not preach it, cause it's easier said than done. And I hope that I answered your question. If not, the thesis of my post is that there is no justification for hatred of any kind. God is Love, and once we sanctified people stop using the Bible as a tool for hatred, the world will be a better place. It starts with us who know Christ!
