Ok, you still love them...in your strange, neglectful, exclusionary way.
No, chances are if you are excluding them from the same rights as you I doubt you are still friends.
Yes, judging them is precisely what you are doing.
Yes, you are in fact condemning them to hell if you are indeed a Christian and believe the Bible. Contrary to popular practice, you do not get to pick and choose which parts and parables fit into your lifestyle and personal choices of what a Christian is.
Yes, you will allow people to bully them. You are doing it in this image by disregarding them as persons with equal access to the rights and privileges you currently enjoy.

Of course you're entitled to your own opinion, but when it's so fundamentally flawed, contradictory, and generally dangerous and unhealthy it is very difficult to consider seriously. This was never an attack on faith, this was a push towards progressing our social environment. Do not act as though some backlash from a small, vocal, aggressive segment of supporters is akin to the oppression these individuals have faced, being rendered at best invisible and at worst criminal within as recently as 1969 in Canada.

And besides, this isn't something that homosexuals believe according to their homosexual manual. It is an embrace of love, acceptance, equality, and logic, and is as much or more in accordance with nature and natural law than an opinion or choice.

/rant. Thanks for the cathartic release, CP.
I think that the bolded above is exactly what being Christian is. The various sects pick and choose what and how to believe and interpret all the time. Otherwise I agree with you
