Salvation Army: Gay parents deserve to be put to death

The way I look at things these are nature's "judgements". Not speaking about homosexuality, but any 'sin'.

And it states specifically above that there is no condemnation of homosexuality, so what you're saying here is wrong. There is no condemnation at all of "gays" or anyone else.

"This is a misunderstanding of the text
referred to. The Scripture in question, viewed
in its broader context, is not referring to
physical death, nor is it specifically targeted
at homosexual behaviour. The author is
arguing that no human being is without sin,
all sin leads to spiritual death (separation
from God), and all people therefore need a
Saviour."
At no point is there any attempt to disagree with the idea that god madates 'death' because of homosexuality. They don't need to say the words 'we hate gay people' in order to be in support, overtly, of a position that causes discrimination against homosexuals.

Their 'apology' is not really an apology at all and an insincere apology is a double-insult.
Sum ergo sum
