If I'm bigoted toward homosexuals, then I nominate myself as the World's Most Incompetent Bigot.
The nephew of a friend of mine invited me to the Lion's Club for Thanksgiving dinner last November.
Along with my myself, my friend (the Uncle), and the Nephew, was the Nephew's spouse, who is a man.
We all had a wonderful time talking, joking, laughing and enjoying the great food. It was one of the most delightful Thanksgiving's I've ever experienced.
All people are made in the image of God. I can enjoy a good time with people without endorsing any sin that they may be involved in. We are all sinners in various ways and in various degrees.
The world is not divided up between Sinners and Non-Sinners; it is divided up between Forgiven Sinners and Unforgiven Sinners.
