And most non-extremist christians don't believe in hating gays; but not condoning the practice.

This is what I learned when I was a Christian:
God is Love. God is wrath. God is a jealous God.
Jesus said that he with out sin, cast the first stone.
He also said that only God can judge.
If Jesus was the champion of the under-priviliged, of the underdog, if he indeed was a true rebel as history portrays him, I wonder what he would say about our Government and its war in Iraq vs. our Government and its policies against homosexuality.
I'm not judging you . . . I'm just making an observation.
