I agree that homosexuality seems to be the "flagged" sin for many Christians, above and beyond many other prevalent sins.
Indeed, I have witnessed churches overlooking adulterers and people having sex outside marriage (both sins according to the Bible), whilst gays are
vehemently castigated and expelled from the congregation.
I'm not arguing the Christian belief system. What I am wondering is why homosexuality seems to be singled out so much more than any other sin -
particularly when others (i.e. adultery) are highlighted in the Ten Commandments.
A case in point - there aren't many threads on here condemning live-in partnerships, sex outside marriage, babies outside marriage and adultery - all
of which are considered to be sins. And yet there's an abundance of needling against homosexuality
