Thank you Mike Jones! Mike was wrong to go with married men,but is doing yeoman’s service in exposing this kind of hypocricy.So many cherry pick verses to justify their bigotry: the verses requiring stoning of children cheeking their parents are just as important as Yeshua stated that he did not want to take away a tittle of the law!Bi-and homosexuality are just moral in themselves!One who is one or the other expresses her value as a human being.Those who get “cured” deny their integrity.We must overcome the corrosiveness of bigotry! It hurts us all.Let us all be moral!
