I've seen a LOT of straight Christian parents (and even pastors etc..) with gay children. Some of the children have been completely disowned, some get bashed up, some get the silent treatment and some even get fully accepted and loved unconditionally by their parents.
My question is (as above) - if you love and accept them un-conditionally, is that a sin?
Is it a sin to be proud of your gay son/daughter?
Is it a sin to openly defend your gay son/daughter against anti-gay messages/preaching/prejudices/people?
Is it a sin to 'not' send your gay son/daughter to ex-gay conversion thereopy?
Is it a sin to 'not' tell them to repent of their apparent sin?
Is it a sin to 'not' pump Gen, Lev, Rom, Tim, Cor etc... into them until they understand that who they are is an abomination in the eyes of God?
Is it a sin to allow a homosexual person to join you in church?
In my opinion, i would answer "NO" to all of these questions.
I would like to know what others would answer to these questions.
If you choose "YES" to any of them, could you explain why?
If you choose "NO" to any (if not - All), can you try to explain why these things happen sooooooooooo often in Christian families?
Any other comments welcome as well.
