1796: According to Jim

Sara Gilbert does a good job on The Talk and she is also one of the show's creators. Homosexuality is a sin, but so are other things like lying, stealing, sex with a person outside of marriage, etc.

So it's "hate the sin, not the sinner" for you?

How do you reconcile your (presumed) belief that God made everyone and God doesn't make mistakes, with Jim saying today that he'd always been gay, with no feelings of guilt etc?

Brought up by Christian parents in the God-fearing half of Murrrka, he still ends up gay.

Personally, I reckon God is probably gay. He has much better style, good with colours and can interior decorate a whole globe like a motherfucker.

Homosexuality a sin? What pish!

I really enjoyed listening to Jim and his presence makes a nice change in the studio. He's older and wiser and completely lacking in bullshit. The conversation was so much better than recent ones.

This is definitely a repeat listen episode and I hope you guys have him on again.

A compelling case indeed...

And (s)he can be a cruel bitch at times.

They reconcile it by saying that being gay is a choice, so God didn't "make" them that way. It doesn't matter what inconsistency you try to point out, they will weasel around it.

Isn't that the idea?! He was a conversationalist - an engaging and interesting conversationalist who didn't need to be constantly prodded into talking. What the fuck more do you want?

It wasn't a conversation. It was him talking over and cutting off Keith and Chemda.
