You strained gnats is what you did. Nowhere have I argued that the God of Scripture advocates particular issues. I do hold, and still do, that granting freedom of conscience to all, striving to show justice to all, often via equal protection, honors the dignity inherent in humanity. As for your particular takes on Scripture, the "Religion" forum is more appropriate for at length discussions in such matters. I've read enough of your posts elsewhere to get a pretty good fix on where you're coming from.

You can call misquoting Scripture gnat straining if you want. I don't. And as I have already offered, feel free to correct me anywhere you see error.
