I suppose it's awfully progressive of Mr. Shore to note how Christians are "(#8)Too fixated on gays and lesbians." But I fear that even after a week's respite from the anti-Gay vitriol, it will be back to business as usual, since his position is so "unassailably Biblical."

But how so, exactly? Of course the Bible condemns rape and promiscuity and ritualistic pagan sexual practices. Of course the Bible provides us with a moral and ethical framework within which we might conduct our lives with decency and humility, regardless of our sexual orientation.

After his week's respite from being "too fixated on gays and lesbians," will Mr. Shore be back to clinging wistfully to the notion that Straight (i.e. heterosexual) couples get to date, get, engaged, get married, and build lives together in the context of monogamy and commitment, and that this is a GOOD thing ... but for Gay couples to do exactly the same is automatically a BAD thing?

To me that's a pretty poor value judgment.
