The it shouldn't be much of a problem for you to provide me to a citation

Of course not! I can read his words. This apparently is more than you can do.

You simply don't get it. When he said 'a gay lifestyle' he simply meant
engaging in homosexual acts. I was more explicit when I say
'having a sexual relationship outside of marriage.'

You say this because I suggest that homosexuals can life a life free from
sexual sin. It strikes me that you might be the idiot, and a stupid,
bigoted, and ignorant one at that.

There is a big difference. We don't have identity cards with our sexual
preference specified. We don't live in ghettos. We don't have distinctive
names. We have the ability to practice our sexual habits in the privacy of
our bedrooms. None of this applied to Jews in Nazi Germany.

By your silence, I take it you agree that sex outside of marriage is a sin
and that we should confess our sin and repent of it. In this case, you will
no doubt agree that 'Bishop' Robinson should be inhibited in the
performance of his duties until such time as he confesses, repents, and
seperates himself from his unmarried lover (in a physical sense).
