I think it is important to consider the best material from both sides of this debate. Unfortunately, I have not done enough of that myself. Sometimes I find it very difficult to listen to perspectives that are so contrary to my core values. I'm sure people on both sides of this fence feel this way at times, which is why we must approach this material with patience and love. It is not a salvation issue. It is a respect issue, a consistency issue, and a reaching-the-lost issue.
