he doesn't condfem them in any way. he actually says he is fine with them as long as they dont harp on him. he seems to be very understanding, at least from this qoute:
""“In talking to some people around the league, there’s a lot of Christians in the NBA, and just because they disagree with that lifestyle, they don’t want to be called bigoted and intolerant and things like that. That’s what L.Z. was getting at. Just like I may tolerate someone whose lifestyle I disagree with, he can tolerate my beliefs. He disagrees with my beliefs and my lifestyle, but true tolerance and acceptance is being able to handle that as mature adults and not criticize each other and call each other names….
“Personally, I don’t believe that you can live an openly homosexual lifestyle or an openly premarital sex between heterosexuals, if you’re openly living that type of lifestyle, then the Bible says you know them by their fruits, it says that’s a sin. If you’re openly living in unrepentant sin, whatever it may be, not just homosexuality, adultery, fornication, premarital sex between heterosexuals, whatever it may be, I believe that’s walking in open rebellion to God and to Jesus Christ. I would not characterize that person as a Christian because I do not think the Bible would characterize them as a Christian.”""
I cant find anything wrong in that. He also does not say they aren't christian, merely that they are sinning, along with anyone who has sex out of marriage.
EDIT: I guess in the video he does he would not charactize them as a christian. But he certaintly seems reasonable in what he says an not that he is gay bashing in any way.
