A Christian group shows up to a Chicago Gay Pride parade holding apologetic signs including "I'm sorry for how the church treated you".

Right ON! Just wanted to share this, its so refreshing to see religious people who "get it". Your thoughts?

The bible says a lot of things, one of the main themes that repeats itself over and over is loving others.

True. But parts of it kind of contradict each other ya know? I like to see this though. But these guys would be moral without the bible anyways.
I think a lot of christians have a hard time reconciling the contradictions between the old testament and the new testament, which is weird to me seeing as how (if you go by what the bible says) Jesus's death made most of the old testament "laws" moot.

Dragonaut said: Wait...so now God loves fags? 
Does this mean God is gay?
If there was a god, (which I personally doubt) then I would sincerely hope that he/she/it would love EVERYBODY.

Newbie said: I mean I do appreciate what the christians in the OP are doing, but it's going against their religion. So can they really call themselves christian?
It depends on how they define their religion. I'd say, if you call yourself a "CHRISTian", the truest way to go about that is to follow the teachings of Christ. Its been a while since I read the bible, but I don't recall Jesus condemning anyone's sexuality. If you read between the lines, its even quite possible he was boning Mary Magdalene, a prostitute.
