Sin is sin and we need to call it what it is.

Did He call her a whore? No, He did not. He masterfully pointed out the sin in her life without resorting to degrading language.

basically He did in that he told her she had five husbands and the one she was with was not her husband.That is pretty plain talk.
Basically he said,You are a sinner and living in a state of sin right now.Its time to change your ways.
A meeting with the Master usually changes anyone.That is what I offer people.

I think we are missing each other here, Trouvere. My discussion with Brother Benincasa has been concerning using demeaning language towards sinners, homosexuals in particular. I don't see where Jesus used demeaning language with the woman at the well. Do you?

Homosexuality is "unnatural". It's perversion of something that God created holy, wonderful, good, amazing, fulfilling and necessary to the propagation of the human race which is a reward and benefit and blessing all of it's own. Namely, children!
The perversion and "unnaturalness" is why there's so much disgust involved on the part of people toward the lifestyle and the people. Some of the sexual behaviors are absolutely filthy, disgusting and harmful to the human body.
I feel so sorry for these people who are caught up in the lies, deceit, and destruction of the homosexual lifestyle. I say destruction on two counts. One, the fact that many of them end up dead because of AIDs and other diseases .... and the way sex is done does injury to the body that is nasty. Secondly, because they are going to spend eternity outside of Christ and heaven.
There is no reward of children. They have a stigma attached to them because of their lifestyle that they have to bear. And many of them end up ultimately alone and filled with regret because of the choices they've made. What a waste!
I don't hate the homosexual. I hate the devil and the traps that he has set of deception, lies and destruction that so many good men and women have gotten caught in.

There are many disgusting traits of sinners, they are living lives of destruction and as their lives are wasted they perish.
Nothing positive can be said concerning the lives that you have described. But in the body of these dysfunctional human being lives souls whose sins have been paid for by the cross. If believers in the gospel are too disgusted to believe that they can enter into the life that is provided for them, how in this life is it possible for them? Wouldn't you agree that most Christians doubt that homosexuals can be changed?
