@itsem3345 God makes no such "demand" that one can't be #gay and #Christian. And the claim by some that he does certainly does not hold up to close scrutiny. https://t.co/vvwm72xwCz

@nkostelic @ErinGreenbean There are only 3 settings for LGBTQ behavior in the bible: PAGAN IDOLATRY: Pagan temples enslaved male & female cult prostitutes; VIOLENT RAPE: as we read in the Sodom & Gomorrah; PEDERASTY: An exploitative & often violent type well-documented in the ancient Greek and Roman world

@ErinGreenbean @rentveil It would be wise for you to inquire before making such assumptions. I've supported full inclusion for #LGBTQ people for over 20 years. But I also know your assumption that Ruth was a lesbian is not exegetically supportable.

@rentveil @ErinGreenbean I have a seminary degree also. But one need not have a seminary degree to have done their homework and no one is above reproach ... even those of us with seminary degrees.

@nkostelic @ErinGreenbean You're reading 21st century culture and concerns into the ancient text. There were no gay households, no gay institutions or gay culture at all.

@weirdlilguys He's thinking outside the box.

@OceanSapphire82 Responsible exegesis is about seeking to draw out from the text what it meant to the author and original intended audience, not reading into it stuff never intended. We don’t get to rip passages out of their ancient context and replace them in another age for convenience.

It's my understanding that #HBOGO is part of HBO and available for free for subscribers whereas #HBONOW is a separate service @ $14.95/month for non subscribers. Has this changed?

A month after a firmware upgrade gone wrong that results in loud high-pitched beeps when using TV or DVR customers still have no status update from #Sony. What gives? @forbes https://t.co/y98tma3KSa

As a long-standing #JetBlue flier, I applaud your steadfast commitment to outstanding customer service. You never cease to amaze. Bravo!!!

@ShaunMelady I'm Christian, gay and a seminary grad. See my blog at: http://t.co/vvwm72gtAz. I suspect much will resonate for you.
