::::::Love is not synonymous (actually, it's an antonym) with failure to discern between what is morally right and wrong, and popularity is not an indicator of truth. --[[User:1990'sguy|1990'sguy]] ([[User talk:1990'sguy|talk]]) 17:12, 16 May 2019 (EDT)

:::::(edit conflict) Also, keep in mind that we don't oppose homosexuality or transgenderism because we simply dislike it or have some "subconscious hatred" or whatever -- we're simply repeating what the Bible says, as the ultimate source of authority. For example, [https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Romans+1&version=ESV Romans 1:26-27] states that homosexuality not only is sinful behavior, but that it's also punishment for sinful behavior (remember, this is the New Testament--good bye to your notions that it's all just "Old Testament stuff"). Also, [https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1+Corinthians+6&version=ESV 1 Corinthians 6:9-10] list homosexuality as an act that indicates that one is not saved. Also, see [https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1+Timothy+1&version=ESV 1 Timothy 1:9-10]. There are other passages that deal with the topic of marriage (see Jesus's statement in [https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+19&version=ESV Matthew 19:4-5], for example). --[[User:1990'sguy|1990'sguy]] ([[User talk:1990'sguy|talk]]) 17:12, 16 May 2019 (EDT)

Here is a quote from Conservapedia's flagship [[homosexuality]] article: "In his essay which examines the biblical passages regarding homosexuality, Pastor and Associate Professor of Pastoral Ministries at [[The Master's Seminary]] Dr. [[Alex D. Montoya]] states that 'The [[Christianity|Christian]] needs to befriend and witness to the homosexual with such [[love]], [[compassion]], and [[wisdom]] that such will respond to the saving [[grace]] of [[God]].'"<ref>[http://www.tms.edu/tmsj/tmsj11h.pdf]
JohnZ, I hope this helps clarifies Conservapedia's views on homosexuals.
