Rather, people who take on GLB identities are making the link where they shouldn't. In other words, they take it personally when they shouldn't.<br /><br />However, I disagree with this position (and agree with you, sz). The self-determination of one's own relationships seems like a pretty big deal to me, and it's perfectly acceptable for someone to consider that to be an intrinsic part of themselves.millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05990852054891771988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9124539381685751273.post-8492689710389694872012-10-03T21:01:19.862-07:002012-10-03T21:01:19.862-07:00"Love the sinner, hate the sin."
Let..."Love the sinner, hate the sin."<br /><br />Let's forget the christian part of this, and focus on the figurative meaning of it, as you did. I am somewhat confused why you would resort to awkward statistical argumentation, when in addition to the meaning or the users of this phrase, also its application can be wrong. In all your positive examples the "sinner" and the "sinning" are not intricately linked. Like how they are with homosexuality. How can one condemn hunting without condemning predators? One can't. And that's the difference.sznoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9124539381685751273.post-61131764851495996622012-10-02T07:01:14.326-07:002012-10-02T07:01:14.326-07:00Yes. Typos!Yes.
