The world has not ended and the doors of Christian churches are still open.  THE HEADLINE NEWS ----- Gays are being killed in record numbers in the Middle East by Isis soldiers. They are being beheaded, beaten, hanged, and pushed off the tops of tall buildings. THE SAD NEWS ---- Preachers and political leaders are still advocating similar treatment for gays in America, which is adding fuel to the fire for ill treatment to continue against gays all over the world. Presidential candidates are using techniques of hate against gays to stir up emotions in conservative Christians in an attempt to gain increased numbers in public opinion polls. THE GOOD NEWS ---- According to recent public opinion polls, the majority of Americans support love.
