So ignoring one of the 10 commandments isn't a sin then?

I really don't feel like getting into the New Covenant and Paul's letter. Point is: yes, ignoring some of the 10 commandments is not a sin for christians. Jesus and the New Covenant lay out a different groundwork for Christians, some of which is borrowed and used directly from the 10. However, as Ninja said, some fundamentalist prefer to adhere to a more 'classical' approach.

Plan something useful and stop worrying about other people fuckin

Trampling Christian values by *being alive and having a job*, implying they want all gay people dead, unemployed, or marginalized.

There's a reason they call the Christian far right the American Taliban.

Why do I get the feeling the father has already "educated" his kids about homosexuality.

The anti-gay crowd are similar to the anti-evolution crowd in that they are so instilled with dogma that anything contrary to that dogma is seen as the enemy which must be suppressed. Contrary views harm their ability to brainwash their children into their own twisted mindsets, as well as challenges their own beliefs, which, god forbid, could lead them to thinking they were actually wrong about something.

Well yeah, that's the thing. Depends who you ask, but I'd assume members of the American Christian Right would likely tend to not follow the NCT and strictly abide by the 10 commandments.
