I have studied the Bible and the theology behind Christianity for many years. I have been to many churches. I have walked the depth and the breadth of the religion and, as a result of this, I have a lot of bullshit to scrape off the bottom of my shoes. ~Ziploc Surprise

In recent years, the president of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary said that he believed homosexuality was determined by birth but still felt it was a sin because it's attributable to "the fall".

Proving to their satisfaction that homosexuality is part of nature and determined by birth won't force them to admit that gays deserve equal rights because they can fall back to the "we live in a fallen world filled with sin". This is, after all, the same religion that tells me I've committed adultery with every woman I've ever felt lust for.

If there is one thing I would expect it is that a priest can tell what a homosexual looks like.

I'd just like to know what a “diabolical, homosexual look” is.
