Fundamentalists say God hates gays.
But this is based on the words of David.
And David's vision was not perfect.
He says God hates sin and wickedness.
And: "I hate them with prefect hatred." Psalm 139:22 (NRSV)
But Jesus says: "'You have heard that it was said, "You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy". But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.'" Matthew 5:43,44 (NRSV)
And Jesus words take precedence over those of David, Moses, and Paul.
