The so-called "Religious Freedom Bill" that allows business to go back to the Jim Crow era segregation days and refuse service to homosexual people on the grounds that it is against their religion was defeated in Arizona. However, other "Bible belt" states are also considering passing such discriminatory legislation.
Since we have already covered the subject of homosexuality on this blog (please search for it if you have not read it), let us consider the actions of Jesus himself.
In Mark 2.13-17 Jesus eats with sinners - much to the disapproval of the hard-hearted Pharisees.
Regardless if people who are calling themselves "Christians" or not believe that homosexuality is a sin, I ask you: do you also condemn Jesus for associating with "sinners"?
