Project ideas.

Here are some of the ideas for projects that have been running through my mind:
*A possible continuation along the same lines of my ISP which dealt with homosexuality and Orthodoxy. Except maybe this time I'd move outside of the theory and into the practice of the real-world: are homosexuals shunned from the Orthodox Church? What happens to the clergy who are found to be homosexual? And the laity?
*Looking at the Bible verses dealing with homosexuality and determining why laws such as the sodomy laws were put in place.
What basis do these laws have? This would look at the Bible and see what, if any, Scriptural authority they were instituted under.
*Anti-homosexuality: personal opposition or adherence to doctrine?
Looking at whether people just don't like homosexuality because they think it's "not natural" or "not right" or because they think it's an affront against God.
*Anti-homosexuality: why not just a platform against sexuality in general?
This would deal with the topic of sexual renunciation on a general basis, not on depriving homosexuals or heterosexuals their right to love.
*Why is one form of love not equal to another?
In relation to Our God being a God of Love, why would He, and by extension we, discriminate against love between those of the same gender and those of opposite genders?
