The page you found is no doubt a parody of of the "Christian" Group called God Hates Fags. (They do have a warning on their site that says: "Warning: Gospel Preaching Ahead.") The site is at http://www.godhatesfags.com/

If you really want to be sicken your soul, body, and mind, log on to the listing of Hate Groups monitored by the Southern Poverty Law Center at http://www.splcenter.org/intelligenceproject/ip-index.html

Type any of the names of these groups into a search engine and I'm sure you'll find they have website.

Pray for them all.

If these people are preaching the true gospel, their website should be godlovessinners.com

Needless to say, these self-defined Christian conservatives are not Christian.

God�s love for each of us is unconditional. He loves us whether we follow Him or reject Him. Of course, if we do not follow Him we disinherit ourselves from a share in the Kingdom. By not properly differentiating the difference between God�s unconditional love for each of us and His direction to us to keep the Commandments the authors of the referenced website have succeeded only in closing more ears to the Gospel.

Christians have the obligation to call all people to follow Christ and repent of their sins. Our message to homosexual individuals must always start with telling them that God loves them and that there is nothing wrong with having homosexual tendencies but that it is always wrong to engage in any sexual activity outside of heterosexual marriage. Such behavior must always be condemned by Christians as sinful because Christ Himself condemned it.

Rather than discuss this group further let�s pray for them, that they may come to see the fullness of the Gospel and accept a true Christian understanding of how Christians should minister to homosexual individuals. Let�s also pray for all homosexual individuals, that the Lord will bless them with strength to follow Him and live a Christian lifestyle.
