To the Editor:
The Sept. 18 issue of the Herald has a letter promoting Christian acceptance of homosexuality. Those that hold that the Bible, from Genesis to Revelation, utterly condemns that practice are a “homophobic minority” within the Christian community, according to the letter writer.
Leonard Pitts Jr., the syndicated columnist and self-styled “voice of reason,” is therein quoted approvingly as a “Christian authority” in this matter. Pitts comes across as a high priest of political correctness and tolerance. That is, tolerate anything as long as it’s not biblical morality. We certainly can’t have that!
The Apostle Paul, in another context, talks of activity “contrary to nature” (Romans 11:24). On the other hand, males and females complement each other. Do you get it?
To quote the blizzard of Bible passages that view homosexuality as immoral would take up way too much space, incidentally, if you want to look up appropriate verses, do not use inaccurate paraphrases like the “Living Bible.” The King James Bible is light years ahead of all the modern versions/politically correct perversions in terms of precision and scholarship.
Suffice it to say: woe unto them that call evil good and good evil (Isaiah 5:20). And again — don’t follow the multitude to do evil (Exodus 23:2). If you truly love your neighbor as yourself, as the Sept. 18 letter writer seeks, you would teach them to flee sexual immorality (1 Corinthians 6:18).
Cape May – Governor Murphy says he doesn't know anything about the drones and doesn't know what they are doing but he does know that they are not dangerous. Does anyone feel better now?
