Your Opinion: Response to Otto on homosexuality

Dear Editor:

I want to respond to the Nelson Otto letter to the editor published May 23 in the News Tribune titled “Gays also read the Bible.”

I am in my late 60s and when I was a child you mostly heard the word gay around Christmas time. It was a time of merriment as we celebrated the birth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Today when we hear the word gay the connotation is by and large used to describe male homosexuals.

Recently Barack Hussein Obama and Joe Biden have attempted to give credibility to homosexual unions.

It is a shame that our young people as early as kindergarten are being brainwashed into thinking homosexuality is normal.

I would suggest that if gays also read the Bible they would include the book of Romans 1: 21-32, as it deals with the depravity of homosexuality.

Pray for our nation and people worldwide that they stop deceiving themselves and accept the natural knowledge of God that is written in every man’s heart.

Issue-oriented letters to the editor in response to this or about other local topics are welcome. All letters should be limited to 400 words. The author's name must appear with the letter, and the name, address and phone number provided for verification. Letters that cannot be verified by telephone will not be published.
