^ 'Polish National Catholic' that sounds serious! Some beautiful churches in Poland (Krakow anyway) btw.

I notice alot of people like the "Hate the sin but love the sinner" quote when it comes to homosexuality. Personally I think it's because it's a nice way to tell themselves that they aren't really prejudiced against gays.

But let me give an example of "Hate the sin but love the sinner" and see if anybody thinks it sounds right? If somebody were to say...

"I don't hate Jews, infact I love Jews.. it's just people who speak Hebrew, pray in Synagogues and who celebrate Hanukkah that I really hate".

Sorry but that ^ would be totally unexceptable and makes no sense whatsover! So why is it exceptable in respect to homosexuality?

Crazy I know, but true.  Now toss in the Christian Science and they ended up with an agnostic child, go figure.  I'm not even sure if agnostic would be the right description because my main belief is just that I am a part of something much larger than myself.  I cannot put a name or face representation to it as most religions do in regards to their own faith.  I just know that I don't hate people.  I personally may not like how they do some things compared to how I may do them but I don't use that as a way to judge myself being better than them.  We are only human.
