Probably even most peoples opinion. Even mine. But not everyone.
And, is a "gay" prostitute morally worse than any other prostitute?
Both are sins. Where in any religious teaching are levels of sin defined?
Or are we talking opinions again?

Catholicism I believe.
And what is your deal with these "opinion" disclaimers. Shut up, its a message board. I'm pretty sure that most people on this forum with half a brain would realize that Shinerbock is posting his opinion when he calls a guy getting hired to have gay sex with a guy....."filth." When he says something and writes "in my book".....that is more than likely an opinion. Being a journalist, I would expect you to know that.

Hey, as someone pointed out, "It's a message board."
It's not up to you or anyone else to tell me to "Shut up."
And I'm a broadcaster (television director), not a journalist -- although part of the latter does rub off.

I'm sorry, I can't read your posts until you identify whether or not it is an opinion.

Now, in reality, the confusion comes in with the changing word "fundamentalist" which now has a negative connotation in many senses. Thus people think that the Westboro Baptist Church or whatever it is is how Baptist churches are. Most evangelical Christians have strong views about right and wrong, but they aren't going "you're going to hell for being gay". We think all sin gets you to hell without Christ, be it having a gay affair or stealing a candy bar. Most don't want to condemn, they want you to find what they've found. Of course, this is my version, but its also based on a lifetime within Baptist/Methodist churches. It just so happens that the harshest and most hypocritical evangelical Christians often tend to be the loudest.
