What is the best ingredient of a salad? Everyone might have a different answer to that. Someone might think the lettuce, or tomatoes, or bacon bits, or even the dressing is their favorite part. Now suppose the salad was entirely made up of your favorite part; a salad entirely of bacon bits, tomatoes, or dressing. That would be a terrible salad. It wouldn't even be a salad at all.
Just like a perfect salad, in order for the church to be perfect, it needs a variety of types of people. If the church were entirely made up of one kind of person, even if it were your favorite type of person, it wouldn't be perfect. Members who have gay orientations make up an essential part of the church and it behooves us to be more welcoming to them. The church can't be perfect without them.
