Gramme, I appreciate that you try to be reasoned in your thinking but the problem I have with your thinking...and other christians who tout the same tolerance...hate the sin not the sinner types...is how completely arrogant you are in your opinion. I'm not attacking but it insults me to hear you talk as though you are speaking the voice of god. Sorry, but you are not. You are speaking to your own experience and relationship to god. Good for you...it sounds like you have a strong spiritual relationship with god.
But don't try to tell me that because I don't believe what you believe that I am wrong or because of my lifestyle I am wrong in the eyes of god...but you love me anyway. Oh thanks for your compassionate conservatism. You don't know. You have a set of values that guide your beliefs but you don't really know any more than anyone else. I have a set of beliefs that guide my spiritual life; I do not know beyond certainty that what I believe is right or wrong but I follow my own sense of faith. Example: I am not a literalist but I have no interest in trying to hit anyone else over the head with my beliefs...it's very personal.
That's my issue with your words and personally I'd rather you kept it to yourself and influence through your actions rather than words.
