"Mainstream" Christianity is a difficult term, and perhaps I chose poorly to use it, but there are definitly churchs that DO hold those Gays=Hell beleif.

yeah, if you are talking about the nuts that protest funerals, but I wouldn't call them mainstream.

Pat Robertson, Jerry Falwell and their loathsome gay-hating ilk have huge media exposure, their own TV networks, endless radio shows, enourmous flocks and hundreds of millions of dollars coming from people who share their beliefs. Megachurch superstar Rick Warren is more subtle, but no less Gay=Hell. And while they make not advocate protesting funerals (I don't actually know) I'm doubt they disaprove based on comments they have made.

Hard not to look at that and think mainstream.

I would find it hard to believe they do approve. Sometimes, funerals are for soldiers. Sometimes, they do very disrespectful things to the American flag. Somethings have signs that say insulting things about American. I don't believe Pat Robertson or Jerry Falwell would approve of those things.

Also, I really don't consider Pat Robertson, Jerry Falwell and their ilk to be mainstream. I consider them to be extreme.
