It could be me, but do Church "Traditionalists" ever smile?

‘A traditionalist Anglican group has warned the issue of homosexuality could split the Church of England the way the Episcopal Church has done in the US.
The Fellowship of Confessing Anglicans will be launched in the UK on Monday.
The group has campaigned against active homosexuality in the Anglican Communion after being established last year.
One supporter, the Bishop of Rochester, the Right Reverend Michael Nazir-Ali, told the Sunday Telegraph homosexuals should "repent and be changed". ‘
The thumbs seem to be broken again.
BR – Nobody is all bad, but I wouldn’t cite that as an example of good.
Yes they do. I have a couple of Christian friends and a Christian daughter and they all smile. I think the Bishop of Rochester and the Right Reverend Michael Nazir-Ali should just mind their own business about homosexuality and live their own lives. Why should they think they have any right to interfere? I feel sure that few would choose to be homosexual, with all of the troubles it brings them. My neighbour is homosexual and has been beaten up just for existing and he is one of the nicest men I know. People who are breaching in the way they are make the problem worse for men like my friend/neighbour.

It isn’t the ‘issue’ of homosexuality that splits the Church, its the small mindedness of some bigots who think that two men or two women in love is the worse thing in the world. I can name several things worse than two people being happy together.
And to answer you, no they can never be happy. They are far too busy preaching on everyone else’s life to be happy with themselves. Religion is like that.
Gig – you say respect people’s religous freedom but you then go on to compare feminists and gay people to the devil. Hmmm why is it all the bigots freedom that should be respected and not everyones’

Agree totally with Claire!!
Shame on them !!
This really angers me–also the way they seem to pick and choose instruction from the bible to suit whatever hate campaign they are peddiling this week.
My God loves everyone no matter whom they choose to love and some of the biggest hypocrites I ever met were all fanatical church-goers.

Please respect to their religious freedom.
In the bible, homo is not welcome.
See Revelation chapter 12
" And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars: And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered…."
Woman has to be travailing in birth as stated in Genesis 3: no matter how godly she is.
Only red dragon tried to stop such thing. This red-dragon may refer to feminists , homo-ists and all rejections.

A Quote from Wiki:-
In January 2008 Nazir-Ali wrote that Islamic extremism had turned "already separate communities into ‘no-go’ areas" and claimed that there had been attempts to "impose an ‘Islamic’ character on certain areas", citing the amplification of the call to prayer from mosques as an example[11]. He criticised the government’s integration policy as "an agenda which still lacks the underpinning of a moral and spiritual vision", and asked that the government make a public affirmation of the "Christian roots of British society".
He cant be all bad then can he?

I don’t know if it is a smile or a sneer but catching someone "sinning" brings something to their face
