Narrow Minded People

I am so discussed by how narrow minded some people can be. So the Lutheran church that Rick belongs to and I have gone to a few time and really like. The Pastors there are great and the people make you feel very welcome. Well this church belongs to the ELCA and the ELCA has recently passed a resolution to allow gay pastors and basically says you should treat all gay people just like everyone else. Well some narrow minded members of Grace Lutheran church are having a fit. They want the church to leave the ELCA because of it. The pastors of Grace said they will not leave the ELCA. I just cannot understand why some people think they are better then others. Doesn't the church teach you that you should forgive and except ALL people. Women, men, black, white, gay straight.....I am so disappointed in some of the people that belong to Grace right now. It is my opinion that as long as it does not hurt anybody who or what a person wants to do in there private life is none of my business. Gay people should have the same rights as everyone else. They should be able to get married and have children just like the rest of us. And they should be able to go to any church they want to and not be singled out.
So that is my rant for the day.
