I've been following the podcast Unbelievable? for some time now. It features debates and discussions between and among different Christians and atheists. It seems like it's the atheists who always bring up homosexuality first. Right now it's the most popular critique of Christian theology. Regardless of whether the atheists are right or wrong, it seems like they are the one's who are most interested with making it an issue. In every generation the Christian community is trying address whatever seems to be the most prominent moral issue of the time. In the mid-19 century it was slavery. In the 1920's it was temperance. Then abortion. Then divorce and the breakdown of family structures. Christians aren't obsessed; they are just responding to the larger society. And now gender identity has become the hot political issue of the day. Everyone is weighing in, not just Christians.
As far as I can tell the biggest issue inside the church for the last 10 years hasn't been homosexuality, but rather porn addiction. On AF it isn't even an issue. It's just taken for granted that porn is innocuous. To the extent that it does come up, it's considered positive and even has it's own forum, area 69.
Just an observation. YMMV.
