Local Controversy Concerning A TV Show
George L. Faull
Regarding Kevin Hunter's letter to the Editor
Saturday; he claims to be a voice of reality. I don't think so. He maintains that the "Pastor" of
the show "The Book of Daniel" who "supports" his homosexual
son is not wrong. In fact, he says it is Christian. He says that the Christian
thing to do is to love them anyway. Agape, unconditional love. He then argues
because you cannot stop it, you must not try to stop anyone from their
Constitutional right to practice homosexuality.
Excuse me! At one time sodomy was a felony in every
state. When President Clinton wanted us to celebrate National Gay month, he was
trodding on the State Rights of a dozen states where it was still a felony. The
people who wrote the Constitution lived in states that had it as a capital
crime because it was against nature. To speak of the Constitutional right to
practice homosexuality is so contradictory it is absurd. A constitutional right
to commit a felony!!!! So says our current Supreme Court since 2006 because new
Supreme Court Justices came in and overthrew the 1986 decision declaring that
the Texas Sodomy Law was unconstitutional. This is certainly not the
"voice of reality".
As for the love of God being unconditional, I think
he should read John 3:16, "For God so loved the world,
that he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believeth on him should not
perish, but have everlasting life." That beautiful passage not only
contains a promise, but a threat. The believer will not perish, but what of the
unbeliever? What of those mentioned in Revelation 21:8, Revelation
22:14-15, Romans 1:26-28? Where is the unconditional love in these
verses?
Did Jesus ever address the subject of homosexuality?
Yes, he did. He said, "But from the beginning of the creation God made
them male and female. For this cause shall a man leave his
father and mother, and cleave to his wife;" Mark
10:6-7. Jesus never mentioned
the word homosexuality, but then he never mentioned beastality or pedophilia
either. I wonder, if Mr. Hunter believes these two gross crimes should also be
Constitutional Rights and that we must support those who practice them because
they don't live the way we think they should? Perish the thought!
