From boytwnmom:
You just put something into words I hadn't thought of.
Protesting the word of Christians is just part of the fabric of free speech. Christians share a country and a world where they do not have a voice that convicts a significant number of their own countrymen. Protest is going to happen, and unless Christians choose to simply ignore the protests, I imagine they'll continue to rise to the occaision. If you have something so very worthy of witnessing for, consider your audience.
Whether you mean it or not, whether it is anywhere NEAR your brain when you make statements of faith, they are sometimes provocative, which results in shock and anger, at nearly every level of society. That should mean something. Delivering your message is a two way street. It matters A LOT that your message is received well, isn't that the point?
If "the point" is not received well by those not assisted by the Holy Spirit, do you just write them off, deny their concerns have any connection with reality? NOT being filled by the Holy Spirit is real, too. Clearly verbally leveling the ground between homosexuality with murder and other 10 Commandments sins ought to offend 5% (at least) of the US population. Are that 5% worth offending? You offend someone, you LOSE them, and what else closes someone off so quickly as bigotry?
If Christians are requested to spread the word, they aren't aiming much for homosexuals, or their defenders. I perceive lax disregard for the human wellbeing of homosexuals, as evidenced by the denial of the perception of the community this teacher's Facebook post addressed on this thread.
