Loving homosexuals, transgenders means telling them the dangers of LGBT behavior

That reminds me of a graduate school professor I once had who used to say “It means everything and it means nothing.”
 
Yes, that is true, but my prof was going for the extremes. Also, we tend to think in dichotomies rather than trichotomies and so on, for example good-bad, large-small, short-long, heavy-light, on-off, alive-dead, right-wrong, true-false, fact-fiction, everything-nothing.

Which is exactly what I meant. Keep your unholy lifestyle to yourself. Don’t try to force me to accept it as virtuous. And don’t try to indoctrine children into it–that is monstrously evil.

How do you know I have a ‘conspiracy theory’? Why do you assume something I didn’t say? I brought up specific points. If I had a conspiracy theory then I would ask for no further information.

Who has the courage to do that today, besides me. I tell it like it is out loud, in public, when the opportunity presents itself.
 
Yes, and I’m sure you let people know what kind of Christian love awaits them with your loud declarations.
 
They don’t have to “admit” anything. Just stop trying to force everyone to accept it, and to glorify it. Especially children!
 
Christian love includes Christian teachings. Here’s two:
  1. God proscribes homosexual activity–it is an abomination.
  2. Marriage is between one man and one woman. Same sex “marriage” is a counterfeit.
    I can say that with perfect love. Love for God, first and foremost!

You can adopt a meeker tone without distorting the message.
 
When considering the supposed sins of others, God also has some instructions that view their special calling to be judges of others.

Matthew 7:5
 
When I need instruction in Scripture from someone who rejects its very source, I’ll be sure to holler!

Well you can ignore my words, if you like, but when you ignore Christ’s in favor of conservative Christian virtue signaling, I’m also mindful of Matthew 6:5.

“Oh, we’re all sinners, try to do better if you can but don’t stress over it, ignore those mean homophobic prophets and Apostles because homosexual intercourse is just an alternate form of loving expression, drag queen story hours aren’t really about indoctrination and grooming they’re about helping small children learn tolerance, ignore the Catechism or just change it,
it’s all good, everybody goes to Heaven and gets a pony and a participation certificate…”

Um, no. That is a distortion of what the Church teaches and not what I was talking about.

I don’t agree with puppson nor the OP’s approach because they’re flawed from a Biblical approach but those aren’t “supposed sins”. Homosexual activity is a sin.
Why is an atheist dictating what is sin and what is not in the first place when sin doesn’t exist for an atheist?

Where does Christ say sexual immorality is OK?
Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfil them. For truly, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not an iota, not a dot, will pass from the Law until all is accomplished. Therefore whoever relaxes one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do the same will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever does them and teaches them will be called great in the kingdom of heaven. For I tell you, unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.
-Matt 5:17-19

Where does he say the mark of a good Christian is to go around harassing sinners, making their lives horrible and feeling pride in being judgmental and prideful in imposing your will on them?

My criticism was you trying to define what is sin and what is not.
Second, isn’t it judgemental to deem someone prideful when one can’t read minds?
