It seems a bit of semantics, but I will take your word for it.

As for you comment on adultery, I do not understand that as being the sin undertaken by an unmarried couple. Not saying it should simply be ignored, especially if it is openly stated as potentially temporary and transitory — as opposed to effectively permanent despite the lack of government certification or church ceremony.

I do not disagree that there are places where the church has some responsibility to call its own with respect to sin. The question is which sin. And in an environment in which the whole of the participants are not necessarily Christian, it becomes even more interesting. I understand that you don't just let sin remain. But in the era of the writing of the law on the hearts and the understanding that sin does not simply cease (as a whole), it is not as simple as telling everyone who does something you think is a sin (even if you know it is a sin) to stop it because it is sin or get out. Or writing bylaws to define every sin that everyone thinks is "one of those sins."

But we disagree, so that can be that.
