Lucy #049: You continue on by stating that ―You think God accepts all sin!‖ – a<br />

statement which is, of course, completely false … It is not that I think God accepts all sin, my<br />

dear, it is that I have faith that God (if He exists, and if He exists in any form worth worshiping) fully<br />

accepts and unconditionally Loves all sinners – and thereby unconditionally (and appropriately)<br />

forgives all sinners as well; and this, whether said sinners are repentant heterosexual Christians<br />

or unrepentant homosexual atheists (or anything in between).<br />

I do not know if this is true, of course, and yet if God does exist, and if He truly is a<br />

perfect manifestation of perfect Love (as Jesus quite clearly claims Him to be – see Matthew 5:48),<br />

then with such awesome Grace & such limitless Kindness is how He must deal with all of us –<br />

gay & straight alike … For indeed, perfect Love simply knows no other Way.<br />
