Thanks everyone for everything posted. Until recently...maybe it's because I'm getting a little older (not much older....lol) I wanted to know more about this subject. I always wanted to know, but didn't at the same time...does that make sense?

I was afraid if I checked, I would basically be told not to associate with my BIL and that was something I wasn't willing to do and still not. He is a great person and I couldn't ask for a better brother-in-law.

Janet, just a quick note to let you know that, while some may think you should disassociate from him, if there is nothing about yout BIL's behavior around you and your family that adversely affects you or them, there, in my opinion, is no reason not to associate with him. We all sin, as someone else said on here. God may hate the sin, but He loves the sinner. Personnally, I would make it clear to my son that even though we love Uncle _____, we know his way of life is not right, but we love him and are there for him and him for us. I had an uncle with some problems, he was not gay, but had other spiritual problems, and we still loved him, and he was still one of my favorite uncles.

If we don't have love, we are nothing. Wishing you the best!!
