Colorado Republican Renfroe calls homosexuality 'offense to God,' equating 'sin' to murder

'I'm not saying this (homosexuality) is the only sin that's out there. We have murder. We have all sorts of sin. We have adultery. And we don't make laws making those legal, and we would never think to make murder legal.''

Colorado state Senator Scott Renfroe during a debate on whether same-sex partners of state employees should have health care benefits extended to them. It's reported that Renfroe went further calling homosexuality an ''abomination'' and an ''offense to God,'' all of which left some fellow Senators at a loss for words. Jennifer Veiga, an openly gay Senator stood up to say that ''... God also created me.'' (Colorado Springs Gazette)
