With what before the Lord?

6"With what shall I come before the LORD,
and bow myself before God on high?
Shall I come before him with burnt offerings,
with calves a year old?
7Will the LORD be pleased with thousands of rams,
with ten thousands of rivers of oil?
Shall I give my firstborn for my transgression,
the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?"
8He has told you, O man, what is good;
and what does the LORD require of you
but to do justice, and to love kindness,
and to walk humbly with your God?
~ Micah 6: 6 - 8 (ESV)

Where is true kindness for gay people and their families?

Where is the true curiosity as to what will fullfill their reasonable wishes without participating in iniquity?

I've seen none.

If you truly value empathy, live it, and demonstrate it. If the people that you claim you're being kind to can see only bigotry and condemnation, your kindness doesn't go far enough.

I will most gladly spend and be spent for your souls. If I love you more, am I to be loved less? ~ Paul of Tarsus (2 Corinthians 12: 15)

This passage is about actions rather than words. It'd be wise for you to not pretend to know me based on a few, rational dispassionate posts in an overly emotional and heated debate.
