[Faith-talk] Another Thought

[Alan Wheeler]

Why do you keep comparing homosexuality and blindness?  You are comparing apples and oranges.  Homosexuality is a choice, blindness isn't. 

You keep using the same comparison, but it doesn't work.  Homosexuality and blindness are two totally different things.

   O LORD our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! 
Psalms 8:9
