Now that the election is over it seems (at least here in southern California) that hype, both for and against, prop 8 now merely glows reminiscently, like a setting sun. But this does not mean the issue has been resolved. Nay, contrary to popular belief, there is more to the Christian life than simply seeing that a proposition securing marriage between a man and a woman stays intact.

It is still our duty to love our neighbors. And whom are our neighbors? Well, the Bible is pretty clear that it is everybody we come in contact with...(even "Christian" advocates who sold their time on street corners over the past month holding expensive signage).

Guys, I must admit, I still struggle with the homosexuality topic. I find, within context, nowhere that Jesus speaks against the lifestyle. This is not to say that I agree with it. I believe that a the biology of a man and a woman fit together so beautifully. And not only that, but nothing compares to the way a man and a woman can complement each other. But I also believe that I am unsure as to how to keep my sin under control. It seems that I do it all the time, and my confusion as to how to live a perfect life becomes even more apparent to me the more I do it. Thus, based off the fact that I sin, and on the fact that Jesus does not seem to tell the homosexuals of his time (see the argument on the link below) to get lost, I too need to look on them with as much love and acceptance as anyone else. I must pray continually for them just as I would by best friends. For my best friends commit willful sin also, right? And do not I also?

I was taken by this article. It is a definite MUST READ. I won't spoil it for you, but basically one man (a self-proclaimed conservative Christian) visits a seminar entitled, “Homosexuality is Not a Sin…It’s a Blessing from God.” This was enough for him (and me) to be hooked. I hope that this article sheds some light on the issue for any of you who also conclusively struggle on this issue as well.
