God created only a man and a woman, male and female. He never said He created an in-between, one that we now call gays or homosexuals. i believe that gays or homosexuals have psychological problems and they have to be helped by the community. tolerating them and going as far as allowing them to be married to one another is just so sick. to top it all, they have become so strong that they are able to create such divisiveness in the church. this has become so because the church tolerated them. are we short of good christian leaders nowadays? how can we have christian leaders who allow disunity and divisiveness reign in our church? all my respects go to Bishop Duncan who decided to remain in the TEC with the hope of instituting changes from within. My prayers will always be with him, a man with a great vision!

I find homosexuals very homophobic, because they they can only relate to one sex, while heteralsexuals are not homophobic because they area able to relate to both sexes, male and female. Homosexuals are homophobic in their relationship with only one sex, male or female of the same gender. Those who keep complaining about Christians who insist upon keeping the historic and biblical church are ridiculed by homosexuals again proving that they are homophobic. John Bartleson Jr. Th.D
