Homosexuals have an equal share in Christ's redemption

I would like to thank Jeff Ellis for his letter to your newspaper. I would also like to assure him there are Christians in Fayette County who know and love gays and lesbians. Christians like myself, m who believe that homosexuals have an equal share in the redemptive work of Jesus Christ.

In the book "A Feast of Anglican Spirituality," Archbishop Desmond Tutu states, "Why should we want all homosexual persons not to give expression to their sexuality in loving acts? We spurn them, we shun them, because we are all caught up in an acknowledged or a tacit homophobia and heterosexuality. We make them doubt that they are children of God, and this must be the ultimate blasphemy." Amen.
