Just another example of tolerant Christians
This article is a couple weeks old, but I find it interesting how the Christian right persecutes Christians that actually believe and live Jesus' words of tolerance.

http://www.nydailynews.com/front/story/347148p-296300c.html

Broadway favorite Kristin Chenoweth is finding out it's hard to be a gay icon who records Christian music.

The former "Wicked" star was just disinvited to November's Women of Faith conference in her native Oklahoma because she's a little too pally with the same-sexers.

"She has been asked to withdraw by due to her publicized and heartfelt beliefs that God is accepting of all people on earth," according to a statement on her Web site.

1. Wow....
"She has been asked to withdraw by due to her publicized and heartfelt beliefs that God is accepting of all people on earth," according to a statement on her Web site.


SO... What kind of "Women of Faith" are these people?

But yet, I've been told that Jesus doesn't tolerate sin!!

4. See for yourself

They seem to do Christian music concerts. Can't imagine that they don't have a gay lighting designer, or gay hairdresser somewhere on tour.

For what it's worth, Kristin is still listed as one of their performers. Boy, if they cast her out for being a gay icon, imagine what happened to Tammy Faye Bakker!
