Salvation Army does not support equality

"Scripture forbids sexual intimacy between members of the same sex.  The Salvation Army believes, therefore, that Christians whose sexual orientation is primarily or exclusively same-sex are called upon to embrace celibacy as a way of life.  There is no scriptural support for same-sex unions as equal to, or as an alternative to, heterosexual marriage."


When will people realize that the bible was written by a group of MEN, who were bishops at the time.  
The Council of Nicea met in 325 AD (300 years after Jesus' death), this council was called by the Emperor Constantine.  
These men chose which writings from Jesus' followers would be used in the bible (several were thrown out, because they did not portray Jesus as "divine" enough), and they also picked the dates for all the religious holidays.  
Just think about it, 325 AD, a group of middle-aged men, of course the Bible is going to be conservative by today's standards.  People just need to stop hiding behind the Bible...it has alot of good in it, but it is not the law of the world.

Here is my suggestion...If you are looking to support an organization, don't drop your change in those annoying bell-ringers with the red buckets, and don't donate anything to their thrift stores.  
Find an organization that truly supports equality and non-discrimination.
The YMCA does a great deal of good work, and they welcome everyone.  But, check your local YMCA...as they can differ on levels of acceptance.
The United Way and the red Cross are also a good alternative...
but, if you support equality and acceptance, avoid the Salvation Army at all costs!
