Being gay is a gift from God, asserts one church in Ohio.
That’s the message that Central United Methodist Church is spreading throughout their community via a digital billboard, launched on Monday.
This “simple statement,” the church announced, is “intended to be a gift to those who have experienced hurt and discrimination because of their real or perceived sexual orientation.”
“The Church seeks nothing less than the healing of the world, and Central UMC wants to offer words and acts of healing to those hurt and marginalized,” the website states.
Jeff Buchanan, the director of Exodus Church Equipping & Student Ministries, agrees that the Church must display love and compassion for those in the LGBT community. But he opposes the message that CUMC is sending through their “Being Gay is a Gift from God” campaign.
“Why would God bestow this ‘gift’ only to condemn it throughout the Bible? This would seemingly contradict His character as a God who is loving and just.”
Lmao that last quote. Why do Christians believe "God" wrote the Bible?!
After 13 years of Catholic school it's pretty obvious that the only thing commonly cared about is their obsession with condemning issues not understood, with the actual issues of poverty, homelessness and war being routinely ignored.
I mean, let's not take it too far now. How about we just let consenting adults love who they want without having to bring God or religion into the picture at all?

Can we not do this right now?. This is a positive thing.
