Hate The Sin, Love The Sinner

"I don't hate the people who are a part of it just because I don't celebrate or affirm it."

Haring, Keith. Unfinished Painting. 1989. Acrylic on canvas. 100 cm by 100 cm.

Do I hate you?

No, I don't hate you, why would you think that?

But I think that the way your brain is wired is wrong

Unnatural

Abominable

Sinful

I don't hate you, but I think you don't deserve to be in love

In fact, what you feel isn't love

It’s sodomy

Disgusting

Gross

I think you should read this book that says you should be stoned

Electrocuted

Denied medical treatment

Bullied

Beaten

Drugged

Disowned

And disinherited from the kingdom of God

By a God that didn't love you enough to wire you right

I don't hate you

I just hate who you are
