Few topics are as polarizing to the Christian community as gay rights. It seems that today, no matter which side of the fence you stand on, both sides of the argument for or against gay rights can use the Bible as a basis for their arguments. Both sides can point to scientific and psychological studies. Both sides can cite studies of family dynamics. Hardcore supporters of gay rights point and shout and call Christians bigots and hate mongers, and hardcore supporters of traditional marriage point and shout and call the LGBT community sexual deviants and sinners. Overall, the debate is just a bunch of people yelling at each other and trying to shut each other down.
