Gays Attack Rick Warren's Church (It Sounds Like Something From The Onion...)

While Obama was being elected as the next President of the United States, California quietly passed the now infamous proposition 8, which has effectively banned gay marriage in that state. An angry group of homosexuals have been rioting ever since and their protests have become so violent that an old lady who was being interviewed by a news outlet was harassed by a crowd who pulled a cross out of her hands and stomped on it. (The blogger over at the Gay Patriot is asking if any grown ups are there.)

Glenn Reynolds (who certainly doesn't consider himself to be a Christian) has been defending the Christians involved, which is probably the first time he has done that since I started reading his blog. He wonders why these angry gay activists are not taking out their anger on Mosques, of course, that would be a hate crime.

There is a terrible rift between America's Christians and America's homosexuals and this doesn't have to be the case. We can blame some of this on foolish Christians who have blamed gays for hurricane Katrina or insisted that every gay person is a child molester. This is not the view of most Christians, only of a small few, but as always that vocal minority has made the rest of us look bad. (Rick Warren is not a gay basher, so it is unfair that his high profile church is under attack.)

Let's take this opportunity to get rid of the "us vs. them" attitude between Christians and gays and not add to the clamor. Let's show the homosexuals in our families and at our jobs that we not interesting in fighting them, but in showing true Christian love to them.
