Has your computer accepted Christ as its one and only salvation and asked forgiveness for its sins? Has your computer repented for its sins? |

| Christians and gays sometimes gets ridiculed for being who they are. Gays for being gay and christians for believing in values that are conflicting with society (sex outside of marriage for example) |

I think it refers to the false assumption that gays and Christians can't see eye to eye on anything.

Actually, there was a comic about gay people and Christians that somehow did not get through (Fuzzy showed me the link). But the unintentional blank post turned out to make a funnier thread than the comic could have.

Shh! 
But yeah, I think Gays and Christians can see eye to eye on a lot of things. Its only once they identify each other as hard-liners that suddenly thats all forgotten.
