I actually envision [Jesus] hearing Christians talk about how much God hates gay people and then flipping through a copy of the Bible like "Where, man? Where the heck did you hear me say that? Where did I say, ‘be celibate’? Where did I command gay people to condemn themselves to a life devoid of romantic, long term and emotionally and physically intimate love that all people understand not only as their birth right but as just about one of the greatest parts of being human? Where did I command gay people to be alone? To live alone? To not hold anyone’s hand? To not snuggle on the couch with anyone? To not have someone to talk to, enrich and otherwise share and synergize with over the experiences of life? Where did I command them to not have or raise children, or not to get married? Where did I command them to live their whole lives without knowing that joy, that sharing, that fulfillment? When did I command my gay children to resist the terrible temptation of love which I myself ordained as the greatest?" …. This is where we really end up messing ourselves up. Is when we take God’s law – which is Love God and Love others above all else – and we use that to hurt people.
