- From your webpage:
-The truth is, Sexuality, whether Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, or heterosexual
-is a gift from God, every bit as much as God's love and God's grace are
-gifts!

- If this is the truth where does the bible teach it?

Ah, now you have moved the topic to the really interesting question: which one
of these is the true Church? It can't be all of them. But the descent of the
