As with many blogs, the meatiest and most interesting parts of the above are in the comments.
And, an interesting development in light of the NBC story using an out-of-context quote to attempt to show that young evangelicals are perfectly fine with homosexuality: Tom Brokaw has come under a little bit of fire recently for excluding the gay rights movement from his new book Boom! about the 1960s (see Google News, LA Times).
“young evangelicals are perfectly fine with homosexuality”
No, not yet; but just give them a little more time. As the neo-liberalism of the emerging church swallows up more and more of the mainstream evangelical camp they too will affirm homosexuality just as the mainline denominations have.
