NO, OF COURSE THAT UFC GUY DIDN'T YELL ABOUT "NOT FOR GAY J" ON TV
* no gay jesus *
Pope Francis was recently asked about his views on homosexualy. Persons wh homosexual tennci are children of God. Crimalisg people wh homosexual tennci is an jtice.
This isn’t the first time Pope Francis has shown himself to be a progrsive lear when to, among other thgs, gay Catholics. As a biblil scholar, I would suggt that church lears who e their cultur and theology to exclu homosexuals don’t read Scripture refully.
Those who would exclu homosexuals om God’s kgdom choose to ignore J, turng stead to the Old Ttament – most particularly to Genis 19, the stctn of the ci of Sodom and Gomorrah. Their terpretatn of the story is that is about homosexualy. Levic 18:22 and 20:13, for example, are not about “homosexualy” as we now unrstand – as the rg, lovg and sexual relatnship between people of the same sex.

It is technilly te that J did not specifilly addrs homosexualy the Gospel acunts; however, He did speak clearly about sexualy general.
The pot is that J did not need to emize s, pecially when the further revelatn ntaed the Epistl remov all doubt as to homosexualy’s sfulns. In addn, unbelievers who practice homosexualy stand need of salvatn jt like any other unbeliever.
Christians are lled to pray for those who do not know Christ, to serve others love, and to share the msage of J wh all people, cludg those volved homosexualy. If homosexualy is a s, why didn’t J ever mentn ? In a 2012 article for Slate onle, Will Orem asked a provotive qutn: Was J a homophobe?
