Pluralism? Tolerance?

This month Singapore society's strong polarized views over homosexuality has blown up in the local media over the leadership in a woman's group called AWARE. The arts community has been vocally in the middle of the fray. It's been ugly.

It appears to be a watershed event where under the rhetoric of "inclusiveness" and "pluralism" flames of intolerance have been fanned toward Christians/Christianity or any whose convictions are for the equal right to speak of or uphold traditional moral values in the civic arena.

Jesus is still the Son of God and Saviour. The Holy Spirit brings conviction and some choose to turn & follow. The Father "is not willing that any should perish, but that all would come to repentance." I read John chapter 1 again and am strengthened with an eternal view. However,

Please pray I will have wisdom to be an agent of peace and truth with grace and character.
