I’m not going to write long on the issue. It has been written far better than I could. I’ll simply link over to an interesting summary on some of the current thinking on the issue within Christian circles:

I will just quickly say that I yearn for the day that all sides of the issue can come to the table with a common attitude of respect and like-mindedness towards the goal of social equality and the intent to address human suffering. Even if we can’t agree on the priority of God’s glory, we should be able to agree on that.
