Church needs to show love, not hate@$ID/[No paragraph style]:Elizabeth Ann Seton Catholic Church in Crystal Lake refuses to host Boy Scouts because of the Scouts decision to include homosexual boy scouts in their program. As a religious leader, the Church must be applauded for their stance of shunning homosexual children, excluding them from their property.Hate homosexuality is the lesson here, shun their sin, after all God does make mistakes here and there and some sins must be avoided at all costs. Protect the purity of heterosexuals. Hate, fear, shun and exclude. Not on my property will gay scouts trod ... Oops! Wasn#146;t it Jesus that preached love, inclusion, understanding and acceptance of differences. Maybe Jesus and his teachings about unconditional love are not part of this particular church?Marty KlemenzElgin
