World Vision recently took a neutral stance on homosexuality--deciding they would not discriminate against Christians in legal same-sex marriages in terms of employment, (neutral and legal being the operative words there) but many people have threatened to drop their sponsorships.
("More alarming than the frustrating homophobia is the fact that people are willing to make starving children the victims of a socioreligious debate." ~Kristen Howerton, Huffington)
...what's beautiful, though, is that I just overheard a phone call where the person basically said, "I heard people are dropping children. I'd like to sponsor another one. It makes me angry that Christians would turn their back on kids"
I'm proud of the man who made that phone call.
