    Christians might sin but the difference is they don't justify their sins, they don't publicize and codify their sins into law and compel people and nations to accept that behavior as right. They don't tie their "sins" to loan ...

    If homosexuals are children of God who are Christians???

  • johnD 8 years ago

    It is not the Catholic Church that is against homosexuality, it is the bible that condemns the practice. If the Catholic Church is a Christian Church, it has no other option but to condemn the practice as well.
