To some, though, the issue is not one of tolerance versus intolerance, but right versus wrong, or as such a person might explain it, Leviticus 18:22, 20:13, Romans 1:26-27, 1 Corinthians 6:9, 1 Timothy 1:10 all say that homosexuality is a sin, and we are instructed to "Abstain from all appearance of evil."
