Gays don't have as long a history of abuse in the U.S. as blacks, but they certainly have endured quite a lot of discrimination.
Feh. Having impure thoughts is as natural as breathing. I think that portrayal (I say portrayal because nothing written in the Bible was written by Jesus himself) is a little heavy on the "this is sin, that's sin" type of thing. People can't control their thoughts.
If tolerance is good, would not promoting tolerance be just fine? Would it not be better, in fact? In my mind, promoting tolerance is nowhere even close to approval. So I honestly don't see the big deal. Even if I had a problem with homosexuality. Which I don't.

I'm not against promoting tolerance. I, personally, have nothing against SpongeBob (other than he's stupid). Like I said, not everyone is sure where tolerance ends and approval begins. Personally, I think the people complaining about the episode are going overboard.
So, allow me to appologize for this, on behalf of my more...
paranoid brothers in Christ.
