Peer pressure?

You gals are funny.

When I asked if you'd welcome a gay person in your church?

That's a stretch. I'm talking about acceptance - - not church.

Is AFF a church, or not?

If you don't think it is, why do you compare it to one?

Good gravy, this psychic ability you and Renda seem to have is just odd.
It's not psychic - - people talk to us and not just in our heads. LOL!

We are totally aware of the thread on AMF and that many of those are here reading this thread.

Are you a member of AMF?

You gals are funny.
If you're not just posting for your (or someone else's) entertainment, then what on earth is behind your asinine, baseless accusations and pointless posts? You make statements that you can't (and won't) back up with facts, and you expect anyone to take you seriously?

The truth is (in case you're interested in that rare item):

1. No one has told Azzan that he (or she) is going to be saved while practicing homosexuality

2. No one has stated that they approve of homosexuality or said that it isn't a sin

Again, this conversation was started on a POLITICAL thread - it wasn't religious in nature. However, just to be CLEAR, our official statement regarding homosexuality was still posted as a reminder of where WE stand.

So why are you hysterically proclaiming things that aren't true about this forum and its admin? Are you just lying to yourself? Or are you trying to convince other readers?

Yes, I am.

Do you think I sent out an APB or something?

Funny, that you won't answer my question about you accepting a gay to attend your church.

You want to focus on making that "a comparison that AFF is a church".

Nope - AFF is NOT a church.

However, your opinion seems to be that you do not accept gays at all, so with that being your opinion and knowing you are a minister (pastor), I'm asking - -would you accept a gay attending your church? And, just because he attended your church, does that mean you accept his lifestyle?

Can you not answer that?

Thank you.

I'm through playing now.

I am not a pastor, thus I cannot answer your question.

Have fun.
