This has to be one of the more stunning news releases I have seen in awhile. The Bangor News is reporting, "Demonstrating a divide among religious leaders, a Christian think tank on Thursday released a paper opposing a Nov. 8 ballot question that seeks repeal of the state’s new gay rights law."
This think tank, the Christian Policy Institute of Maine, is headed by state Rep. Stan Moody of Manchester, a Baptist minister. It should come as no surprise that Moody is a Democrat. He acknowledges that while some Christians believe homosexuality is a sin, they should still be afforded the same protections under the Maine Human Rights Act. He sums it up real nice by saying, "Let anyone among you who has not sinned cast the first ‘Yes’ vote."
Let’s hope this kind of common sense will spread throughout the Christian community. No matter what Christians feel the bible says with respects to homosexuality, we’re all human beings that were created equal and should be treated equal.
We here at Religous freaks give Stan Moody a big BOOYA!! Keep up the good work my friend and freak on!!

We need to treat Homosexuality as it realy is,
a mental illness. Homosexuality is no different than
any other MENTAL illness, they are people who need
treatment.
I’m a licensed minister, and the war going on regarding this issue saddens my heart. If someone were to ask me my side, my first response would be to say that it saddens me because I couldn’t say ANYTHING without hurting SOMEBODY.
I do have some food for thought, though, primarily for the Christian community: Before joining this bandwagon, do you have friends who are homosexual? Do you know a homosexual personally? Have you had a homosexual over for dinner, or invited them to a gathering of some sort? I want to encourage you, please, to practice compassion first for homosexuals first. If not, please do. See homosexuals as human beings, and let it bring you to tears when someone mistreats them. It’s okay to stick to your guns regarding how God designed our sexuality. But that doesn’t mean that you can’t be loving and civil to all people, no matter who they are. A fundemental belief for us as Christians is that WE are ALL messed up in this cursed world. Yet, Jesus still took us in. The church is pretty good at accepting ex-cons and divorcees, but homosexuals seem to be the exception. We are ALL in need of grace, and continue to be a work in progress. Truly love a person and they may be more apt to listen to what you have to say.
I agree with matt.
I have a homosexual family member and I still love them. Nothing is going to change that. Do I think homosexuality is wrong? Yeah, I do.
But the question of homosexuality is a question of sin and when it comes to sin, we are all experts.
I am no better than my homosexual family member.
One of the most lacking ministries ever is one to the homosexuals. That should make the Church ashamed because of its fear and lack of compassion for homosexuals.
Umm… Anonymous? I think perhaps YOU have an unfortunate mental illness yourself, the one they call ignorance. Good Luck with that
i probably would not have imagined this had been interesting quite a few years back but its surprising the way in which age adjusts the means by which you perceive individual creative concepts, thanks with regard to the piece of writing it is really good to look over some thing clever once in a while instead of the widely seen nonsense mascarading as blogs on the web, i’m off to have fun with a smattering of rounds of facebook poker, take care
Important?…
Is this really important?…
I am glad that it turned out so well and I hope it will continue in the future because it is so interesting and meaningful to the community.
I agree that if done incorrectly, inbound links can hurt your research engine rankings. Getting to many outbound links can increase a red flag with search engines, due to the fact they may believe that your site is too “spammy.”
