I guess for some of us, there are limitations when it comes to choosing to associate with people who don't agree with all our beliefs. For many, homophobia and racism are always deal-breakers. Sometimes people believe that "doing you" can contribute to hatred, discrimination, dehumanization, and worse, and so aren't okay with people "doing" racism and homophobia anywhere, for any reason. Some people believe in fact that it's their duty to work toward achieving social justice for marginalized groups through active, critical, conscientious decision-making.

Soooo, have you run enough circles? Or are you going to answer?

Nope, I wouldn't date anyone who is bigoted/racist/sexist. What happens if you marry this guy and you have a gay child? Do you disown him/her?

Don't judge people just because their sins are different from yours. On the other hand, don't condone sin and call it good. There's a lot of Biblical truth in the saying, "Love the sinner, hate the sin." Only God can makes hearts obedient to His Word, and He only changes our hearts when we seek His will and ask for His help. I pray you and your boyfriend, both, will do that.

This only matters if you believe in the bible or god. If not, then the boyfriend is a homophobe and it should be a deal breaker based on the OP's position.

You forgot to capitalize: God

..... this probably won't go unpunished

Ugh I promised to take my mom to church on Sunday day....I suspect I'll be punished.......

In the form of lightning bolts

Haha. Yeah, my mom would probably live at the church if they let her.

As a kid, I was dragged there waaay too often.

...... The upside is that I now have a ton of church going credits built up.

I'm probably a better person for it.

Well, maybe not.

I'm gonna wear a lot cut top. Why? Cause I suspect god would like to sneak a peek

Nobody could blame him.

Her...nobody could blame her...

I'd probably introduce him to some guys who he would never guess are gay and then after he talks about how great they are drop the info on him. And then drop him.

I had a friend in college who was borderline homophobic- learned from his family- and at the end of the year he was floored to find out that another guy in our ring of friends was gay. You could literally see the gears grinding in his head like, "....mom and dad.......are wrong......."

This prolly isn't going to be a very popular post ....

But "love the sinner", in reference to being gay, is just never going to sound like a very "loving" phrase to me

And strangely enough, my gay friends have never been won over by this one either

I think the whole "love the sinner, hate the sin" is completely judgmental & passive aggressive. I also find it curious that this is commonly used in the context of homosexuality. Is this used when someone kills their spouse? How about if they commit assault? Adultery? Not honoring thy mother & father?

And hey - if someone doesn't like the "gay lifestyle" then don't enter into a gay relationship.

When my mentally ill brother's anti-psychotics stopped working and he developed offensive world views, my mother and I tried to practice "love the sinner". It was very difficult. Fortunately, his doctors eventually found that Thorazine works for him and he's back to his old self.
