I've found no law that commands me in any way other than to love my neighbor as myself

In the nineties Jennifer Knapp was an award-winning Christian singer-songwriter popular among evangelicals. Then she disappeared- rumors swirled that she had quit because she was a lesbian. Seven years later she returned, apparently from a hiatus traveling the world, with a new album and the admittance that yes- she is a lesbian.

Jennifer has affirmed that she is still a Christian- one in a same-sex relationship. Reactions in the evangelical Christian community have been mixed.

Lesbianism has apparently been really good for her skin. Or is it the Christianity?

I don't know why anyone's surprised. She sounds just like the singer/songwriter women-with-acoustic-guitars that my wife listens to, and a lot of the performers in that genre are gay.

I don't like that music to begin with. Adding the typical Christian music "Oh Lord, I'm So Impressed With You" subject matter makes it much worse.

the radiant, recalcitrant image of God

Remember when Paul Keating had that big feud with God in the 90s? Good times.
