Truth

I don't always get some Christians. There are protests against a new exhibit in Oslo. The reason - some of the animals are depicted in same-gender relationships. If we as Christians are following someone whom we call the Way, the Truth, and the Life, then we need not be concerned about the truth. Same sex relationships, mating, life-bonds have been observed in many different animal species. Why should a display that indicates such be grounds for protest?

But the problem is that some Christians want to deny what is factual in deference to their beliefs about what is in Scripture. And homosexuality is found throughout nature. But some have the belief that homosexuality is unnatural. In fact homosexuality is natural, part of the natural and found throughout nature and such has been demonstrated in observations over and over again. Christians and those of other faiths who want to argue that homosexuality is against nature just plain need to find other grounds on which to denigrate homosexuality, to do otherwise is to go against the truth.
