Richard, thank you for taking the time to read my article. Even more, your response is a terrific summary of why you (and the majority of Christians) believe that same-sex relationships are wrong. I fully understand your perspective and respect it. In contrast, many scholarly and devoted gay Brothers have already written about why they believe God blesses same-sex relationships. I hope you will likewise respect our perspective. Your comments have certainly been very respectful to me personally, of which I thank you. Many blessings to you, Richard.
