Comment on Christians think gay people are trying to convert them to being gay *because Christians try to convert people to being Christian*.

I’ve really wanted a reformation for a long time, and that other yahoo replying to you really illustrates why.

There are far too many who call themselves Christian that actively spread hate for the people that Jesus spoke most in compassion about, the poor and sick, the criminal and foreigner.

If more people actually read the Bible, as you point out how few there are, then maybe that change could get started.

Have the best week!

This is true! So many spread hate and try and use Christianity as a vector for that.

However, what you provided was still unbiblical. The fact of the matter is, EVERYONE is equally sinful. No matter of sexual orientation, past doings, etc. For ALL have sinned and fallen short of the Glory of God. A pious priest is no more deserving of heaven than a satanist. a charity worker is no more deserving of heaven than a mass murderer. It’s through Jesus that we are redeemed. And only Him. Salvation is a free gift which isn’t related to works, but to your heart attitude towards God and the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, our Atonement.
