Ok, some of the e-mails strayed a little bit but, here is why I said this:

Let's say I am a homosexual (which im far from) and a Christian comes to me 
and tells me that I'm a bigot, im nasty, I'm just downright wrong and sinful 
or as Gabe put it "Pure nasty and distasteful", do you think I would give a 
second thought on asking you to help me?

so coping with the sin is hard, but when someone starts being harsh like this, 
it just turns them aginst you (throwing them to the wolves) instead of being 
caring and loving and understanding in a way that you can influence them to 
go in the other direction.
