Hi Kenny'sID, from what I've heard, I would very much tend to disagree (but what do I know, I don't have the facts
).
That's the advantage of looking at recent data from organizations like the Barna Group, who provide us with factual information so that we have something else than what we've heard or feel or think (from the circle of friends that we run with) to rely on. What I believe to be true is often confirmed by groups like Barna, but they've also shown me how wrong I've been at times as well.

p.s. - as Christians, we should always be concerned with the facts/the truth, yes! I admit that this topic is of particular interest to me because I come from a very large family (5,000+), and I made my living in the arts for more than 30 years (so I have many family members and friends who are gay). Everyone
(including gay people) has the right to hear Biblical truth spoken to them in love, but if conservative Christians begin to believe what the world is telling them, instead of what God teaches us in the Bible, then there will be very few, if any left to do that for them. That's why I was interested in knowing if Rubiks' "factual" statement was actually that, a fact, or if it was something that she simply thought or felt was probably true.
