Lott on Homosexuality

As an " unrepentant bi-sexual ", I will defend Trent Lott's right

    to   have what is really just the traditional view of homosexuality: that

    it is a wicked sin condemned by the Bible. People everywhere have a

    divine right to express their beliefs .I understand he does not think

    they should be persecuted or abused - like alcoholics, he thinks, they

    need help.

        Gay people must also " tolerate " traditionally religious people who

    are indeed the majority in this country. I respect any man's intellectual

    and ethical integrity . I do not want anybody to change their deepest

    convictions because of social pressures.

          For example I believe in Darwin's theory of evolution. Science is

    on my side as it is on my side in this matter of sexual orientation. But

    most Americans have the traditional view of Creation. Do we " progressive "

    minded people want them to  renounce their simple faith unwillingly ?

    No, we must only insist that  Darwin's theory prevail in the SCIENCE

    class - for the good of the country.

        Many gay people also have something to learn about TOLERANCE !

       I will say this about Trent Lott : unlike Lot's wife in the Bible,

    HE is always looking backward. Perhaps his brain will turn to stone !
