@Alex
I am open to any introduction and as I said the issue of morality is
subjective and conscience based. You may see gay relationship as okay and
right from your perspective. However, to another person, it may be immoral
depending on one’s beliefs.
The board has also given the reasons behind the ban.

@Lawrence
Why is love between two consenting non-abusive people a morality issue?
Please explain?
There are many issues of morality in relationships, but what does the
sexual orientation of the partners have to do with anything?
So basically you are saying being gay is immoral, it would be nice if you
could back that up without resorting to the first testament.
Once again, I am more than willing to introduce you to my LGBT friends and
their morality. If you would like to be introduced and learn something,
contact me.
Kindly,
Alex
