This article provides a unique and fascinating perspective on the intersection of homosexuality and theology. The writer is Mormon, but as he continually points out, the article is relevant for Christians as well.
In particular, the paragraph below speaks incredible and incredibly eloquent truth.
"If you know and love somebody who is gay and LDS (or Christian), your job is to love and nothing more. Let go of your impulse to correct them or control them or propel them down the path you think is right for them. Do what you need to do to move past that impulse. Do not condemn the choices your loved one makes. Love. Only love. Show your love in word and deed. Embrace them, both literally and figuratively. I promise they need it—and they need to feel like they can figure out this part of themselves in a safe way without ridicule and judgment. It’s what Christ would do. It’s what your loved one needs. Accept them. Love them. Genuinely and totally."
