@fmf saidI'm good with just leaving it at that except to say;
I can't think of any. Not with a belief about homosexual acts being a "sin". Maybe if one's social milieu were adamantly supportive of homosexuality and progressive Christian views like Suzianne's were predominant. Maybe, I don't know.
There are work and social settings here in Indonesia where one might require some degree of courage to declare that one is tolerant of homosexu ...[text shortened]... e know what it is. I may have expressed myself badly or you may have got the wrong end of the stick.
Courage is demonstrated when one takes a stand in opposition to the prevailing belief of others when there is a threat present.
Even if they're wrong.
For example: a flaming homosexual barges into a bar full of Hells Angels screaming about homophobic alpha males. That takes balls.
But gathering in mass, in a public display of moral decadence, not so much.
In a spirituality forum? None at all.

@fmf saidYou don’t see a massive difference between a drunk child hitting on a trollop and getting rejected and adults having sex with a child?
"Jokes" about drunken 8-year-old children in sexual situations with "trollops" is what is being referred to as "pedo stuff".
Because you falsely claimed that Roman guy posted “hundreds and hundreds” of comments about the latter while I recall him posting around a dozen comments about the former.

@josephw saidThe "threat" might be imprisonment or physical violence or possible death at one end of the spectrum, or the discomfort of social opprobrium or the scorn of people in the human environment at the other.

@pb1022 saidYou can’t recall your imaginary username but you can recall, in detail, all of what another poster was saying or not saying, how many times they post this or that and what was or wasn’t pedo stuff.
