USA To Use Foreign Aid To Promote Gay Rights

[Aquila]

Here's an interesting angle on this. What are some of your thoughts?

I know a former dean of the Anglican Accademy in Columbus Ohio. He's an Anglican priest and is VERY liberal. We were talking almost a year ago and he was explaining how proud he was of his congregation. He went on to talk about how his church voted to be open to gays as active members and was proud because no one made a serious issue over it. He doesn't believe the homosexual issue as we know it today is what the Bible was addressing. So he doesn't see it as sin. He has traveled abroad and even officiated gay unions. He believes gays can be Christians and since their church doesn't see it as sin, for him and his church gay marriage is an issue of religious liberty. He feels a fundamentalist interpretation is being forced on gay affirming churches who desire non-celibate members to marry, rather they be gay or straight.

In this context is this an issue of religious liberty?
