Syncretism doesn't work? Hmm, but Christianity is loaded with syncretism.

In alluding to inclusivity, Point 4 says that we are Christians who are welcoming of "those of all sexual orientations". Given a recent book discussion that we are having on this forum, I thought it would be good to ask: does this stance apply to:

 

1. Pedophiliacs?

 

2. Rapists?

 

3. Those who commit incest?

 

4. Sadomasicists?

Those are sexual disorientations. Whereas gay, straight, bisexual, are sensual sexual orientations that begin to develop early on in the individual and later are consummated between consenting persons.

Whereas the aforementioned 4 sexual assaults are not.

It's a bit like the conundrum when someone claims they love everybody. If so does that include the pedophile, the rapist, the person who is incestuous, the sadist? (The murderer, the burglar, the bully, etc...)

If so then what does that say about love?
