A church in Indianapolis, Jesus Metropolitan Community Church<\/a>, is embarking on a new, $55,000 campaign: Would Jesus discriminate?  What would Jesus discriminate against: homosexuality.  The church, one who ministers specifially to gays and lesbians.  Below are a couple of quotes from their website.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

We’re a Church that’s passionate about Jesus and the Bible, but not afraid of diversity or independent thought.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

You will find a warm welcome whoever you are —
\nstraight or gay, white or black, Asian or Hispanic, conservative or
\nliberal, old or young, rich or poor, deaf or hearing, married or
\nsingle, transgender or any gender identity. <\/em>Like the early Church, we are a rainbow congregation!<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

They have a four-point Call to Action plan with regards to their campaign:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. We must renew our commitment to honesty.<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. We must educate ourselves by daring, like Jesus before us, to become genuine friends of gay and transgender people.<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. We must carefully reexamine what the Bible teaches about same-sex relationships.<\/span> <\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n
  4. We must stop using the law to hurt gay and transgender people.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    I would like to see what information they have regarding #3.  Scripture clearly forbids homosexual relationships.  <\/p>\n
