LGBTI Religious Icon Retires
|
If God, as they say, is homophobic, I wouldn't worship that God.
When will we learn that human beings are of infinite value because they have been created in the image of God, and that it is a blasphemy to treat them as if they were less than this and to do so ultimately recoils on those who do this?
In dehumanizing others, they are themselves dehumanized. LGBT people are part of God's family.-
Archbishop Desmond Tutu |
