In pixelated form, they look like Jedi.

Frankly, I’d find them more honest if they claimed to be Jedi.

But then they would neither have the form of religion nor the power thereof. At present they delude themselves they have the power

Here is a pertinent article. But since it is published by the AFA, if any of us cite it we will dismissed as haters. You know the drill. Nonetheless, some good points: “Yes, Jesus Did Talk About Homosexuality.”

I have read the link, and it is the older and correct teaching on the meaning of porneia, or uncleanness. The ancients noted that peversity was not exclusively homosexual, nor those who had sex with men averse to also having sex with women: they had societies such as the greeks that praised pederasty. What worries me is that it is seen by those in the UMC as “hatey”.

Today we have conflicts with Churchian’s – Back in Jesus’s time, he and John the Baptist, with Pharisees and other holier than thou and missing the point types.
