Then be a compassionate human being and start acting like it. Because I sense nothing but hate from you.
The idea that it is somehow ''hateful'' or ''un-Christlike'' to condemn sins such as homosexuality flies in the face of what is written in the Bible. That idea is grounded in the modern, secularized world's flawed understanding of what love and compassion actually are; as opposed to the Bible's understanding of what those terms mean.
The Bible defines love and hatred much differently from the modern world. Coddling people in their sins (and thus encouraging them to continue down a path that will lead them to Hell) is not considered loving or compassionate at all. Warning them about their sins (an act that you and many others apparently consider ''hateful'' and ''bigoted'') most definitely is, however. The Bible, in fact, calls upon us to do just that:
''Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thine heart:
thou shalt in any wise rebuke thy neighbour, and not suffer sin upon him.'' - Leviticus 19:17
http://www.jesus-is-savior.com/Believer%27s%20Corner/offend_them.htmJesus considered it loving and compassionate to condemn sin - which He did on a regular basis. What we (conservative/fundamentalist Christians) are doing by condemning homosexuality and other forms of sin
is, in fact, an act of kindness. You might not perceive it that way personally, but that is simply because you are basing your definition of kindness on modern, secular ''morality'' as opposed to Biblical morality. If I somehow knew you were in danger of being hit by a bus and I failed to warn you, it would be quite unkind of me. Similarly, it would be unkind of us NOT to warn homosexuals (or any other types of sinners, for that matter) against their sin.
