I'm still receiving a deluge of email re gay marriage, because the CNN piece refuses to die of natural causes-- it is now up at the top of the "Spotlight" section on Google news. Much of the email I am getting is wonderful-- thoughtful support or disagreement. Some of it is... well, different. Here are excerpts, for example, from a very very long note I received from "Henry & Tamara:"Dear Mr. Osler,I am compelled to respond directly to you since Belief Blog of CNN wouldn’t publish my comments in reference to your article “My Take: The Christian case for gay marriage," due to their anti-Christian bigotry, and their pro-homosexual bias.You say, “I am a Christian, and I am in favor of gay marriage,” but that is an oxymoron since the Bible states, “What do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness? What harmony is there between Christ and Belial? You can’t serve both, God and your perversion....You are a Christian like you are a Choo Choo Train or an Automobile or an Airplane, otherwise you would have known without a shadow of a doubt that homosexuality is a filthy perversion practiced by those that God gave over to shameful lusts as stated in Romans 1: 26- 27, “Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.”...Here is how the English Dictionary defines the word Perversion: “A sexual practice or act considered abnormal or deviant.”What could be more perverted than a penis entering the anus that is specifically designed by God with the sole purpose of evacuating excrement out of the body?It is obvious that you are another self-deceived sodomite with fancy titles preying on the ignorant, gullible, and vulnerable.There is nothing to prevent sodomites/pedophiles from marrying mere children as soon as they succeed in lowering the age of sexual consent through NAMBLA, the North American Man/Boy Love Association.The fact is that sodomites are determined to homosexualize the culture as stated by them in the issue of Gay Community News. Sodomite Michael Swift published “The Homosexual Manifesto” an essay on the homosexual revolution, stating in part. “We shall sodomize your sons, emblems of your feeble masculinity, of you shallow dreams and vulgar lies. We shall seduce them in your schools, in your dormitories, in your gymnasiums, in your locker rooms, in your sports arenas, in your seminaries, in your youth groups, in your movie theater bathrooms, in your army bunkhouses, in your truck stops, in your all-male clubs, in your houses of Congress, wherever men are with men together. Your sons shall become our minions and do our bidding.”And in February 15-21 1987, the “The Homosexual Manifesto” was added to the Congressional Record.And in November 1987, sodomites Marshall K. Kirk and Erastes Pill published another article, this time in Guide Magazine titled, “The Overhauling of Straight America” stating in part, “The first order of business is desensitization of the American public concerning gays and gay rights. To desensitize the public is to help it view homosexuality with indifference instead of with keen emotion. Ideally, we would have straights register differences in sexual preference the way they register different tastes for ice cream or sports games: she likes strawberry and I like vanilla; he follows baseball and I follow football. No big deal.”It is obvious that the Overhauling of Straight America was written with the sole purpose of homosexualizing the culture, and demonize opponents opposed to the normalization of sodomy.You said, “The question before us now is not whether homosexuality is a sin, but whether being gay should be a bar to baptism or communion or marriage.”... here is what Jesus Christ says in Revelation 21, “It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To him who is thirsty I will give to drink without cost from the spring of the water of life. He who overcomes will inherit all this, and I will be his God and he will be my son. But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the SEXUALLY IMMORAL, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars, their place will be in the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death.”Consider the matter very carefully since it has eternal consequences, if you don’t have Jesus Christ living in you, and standing next to you as your advocate right after you die, you are doomed.You must repent, admit, and confess to God that you are a sinner misusing the Holy name of his beloved son Jesus Christ to advance the homosexual agenda, and he will forgive you, and God will give you a new heart that will be willing and able to follow his Commandments.However, if you refuse, you will be thrown into the fiery lake of burning sulfur with unbelievers, idolaters, liars, thieves, self-seekers, murderers, witches, warlocks, pedophiles, zoophile lesbians, and homosexuals, and with those that love and practices falsehood.Henry
