LETTER: Potential paper-eater?
Mon, 07/08/2013
Everyone is aware of the florist that refused to perform floral services for a same sex marriage because of her relationship with Jesus Christ.
I fail to see the connection and need someone’s help. Tina Turner has a song ‘What’s Love Got to Do with It?’ And so I say ‘What’s Jesus Christ Got to Do with It?’ (meaning homosexuality, same sex marriage).
I ask that devout Christian readers, Bible scholars respond to this letter with New Testament Book/Chapter/Verse where Jesus emphatically states that he condemns homosexuality, that it is a sin against God, and cannot accept same sex marriage.
If this paper will graciously print this letter and all responses with Scriptures, I will eat the entire paper on camera. And I am a heterosexual male so I have no dog in this race. I simply try to maintain an open mind, being tolerant, compassionate and loving to people of all walks of life – just as Jesus of Nazareth did in his times as an example for all of us.
And the law of the land here is the Constitution, not a religious text of one faith.
