Religion is the world’s greatest undoing and it is high time people stop perpetuating crimes - mass killings, hate crimes et al under the guise of religion.

This gesture is a really good start. An acknowledgment of all the ills meted on LGBTQ and probably other protected class. But we still have a long way to go. Continue to preach tolerance and acceptance! Live and let live!

Actually you're wrong, sin has been modified and would continue to be modified

Most of the things Christians today regard as normal were sinful in the past and there are many things regarded to be okay in the past that are now regarded as barbaric and sinful. even the morality of your folklore book you call bible differ from old testament to the new

I'm skeptical of this news though. First off the headline of the thread exaggerated what happened. its worded as though most/all Christians apologised whereas they're apparently just a few vocal minority
Secondly, there's no proof those are Christians, they could all be pantheists who are gay trying to push an agenda for all we know

Tolerance will naturally slot in
when regardless of your sexual orientation, we preach chastity, faithfulness, loyalty, honesty, love, lifetime commitment, fidelity etcetera
Regardless of your sexual orientation, preach against infidelity, promiscuity, unfaithfulness, dishonesty, cheating on partner, lust, greed etcetera

On a slight detour, Johanna Siguroardottir, Leo Varadkar, Xavier Bettel, Ana Brnabic, Shabnam Mausi, Elio Di Rupo etcetera
I almost forgot to chip in Alan Turing, too
Anyone familiar with any of these chaps?

PS: I deliberately refrained from mentioning celebrities along with those few

"Members of the Church of Freedom in Christ Ministries apologize for Christians at a gay pride parade in the Phillipines.
Religion has often been used to put down the LGBT community.
But at a pride parade this past weekend in Marikina,
a city just east of the Phillipines' capital of Manila,
a group of Christians gathered to say something different: I'm sorry.

Members of the Church of Freedom in Christ Ministries stood at the main entrance of the parade
holding signs that offered apologies for how the LGBT community has been treated by Christians.

Their banners read,
"We're here to apologize for the ways that we as Christians have harmed the LGBT community."

Some of the signs had more personal sentiments.
One man's stated, "Can we hug you?"

According to parade-goer Kohlin Lallabban, many took the group up on the offer.

"It was so genuine and most of us got teary eyed when we saw them," Lallabban said.
The demonstration was part of the church's
"I'm Sorry" campaign, through which members seek to apologize on behalf of their fellow Christians
for the way biblical writings have been used against the LGBT community.

In a statement on its Facebook page, the church wrote,
"We do not need the recognition of people
but the heart-warming response of those who accepted our sincere apologies motivates
and encourages us to continue doing this mission of our church."

Lallaban thinks the act means an exceptional amount to the Filipino LGBT community,
which has often been at odds with the nation's heavily Catholic culture....

Some church members made their own signs.

According to you christians God is an unchangeable God. Even the jesus said that he didn't come to abolish the law itself. So if it was applicable then it is applicable now.

Even if you say that was a different time with less morality we are talking about Yahweh here. This was a god who parted the red sea, covered an entire country in three days darkness, caused a worldwide flood. If god despised rape, he would put up a law punishing rapists and not telling victims to marry their rapists.
