Christian theology is antithetical to gay bashing
While Christianity does teach that homosexuality is a sin, Christianity also teaches that one should love others - even your enemies who persecute you (Matthew 5:44). Jesus also taught "But I say to you, Do not resist an evildoer. But if anyone strikes you on the right cheek, turn the other also...". (Matthew 5:39 NRSV). And the Apostle Paul taught: "If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all." (Romans 12:18).
In his essay which examines Bible passages regarding homosexuality, Pastor and Associate Professor of Pastoral Ministries at The Master's Seminary Alex D. Montoya states that "The 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."[8]

Yeah. Why is there no demand to conduct an investigation? After all, has ploughed tens of millions of $$$ into the PA justice system. Surely there must be something to show for that... Or was it all stolen by the Palestinian leadership?
