Seed of destruction
I love the letters to the editor. Sometimes they are just too easy a target. And if you think I'm picking on someone here, remember that this person took the time to write to the largest newspaper in Akron for the sole purpose of having this crap published for all the world to see. The purpose to voice an opposition to my having civil rights. I think a response is not undeserved. From the opinion section of the Beacon Journal 3/10/04:
Seed of destruction
I am definitely in favor of a constitutional amendment. We are a nation under God, and God's word states it is a sin to have same-sex relationships. Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed for this sin.

Yeah, so let's get an enternment camp going for those Buddists, Atheists and anyone non-Christian! WTF? God called this woman long-distance on the telephone and told her same-sex relations are a sin, or is that her interpretation? I wonder if she's ever cut her hair or eaten shellfish. And of the many interpretations of S & G I don't think it's entirely a cut and dry issue to use it against civil rights. Many interpret it as a warning against many other things not including homosexuality. This person is obviously either simple-minded or ignorant. Problem is that this is the dominant voice of the "majority" who seek to oppress the gay community, and it's really stupid.
As for the rest of the letters opposing gay marriage, they all boil down to one thing: discrimination. Base it on religion, personal choice or blueberry jam - I don't care. It's still discrimination, and these people rationalize like slave owners. It's just really stupid.

I'm surprised they were able to write an entire letter using their small grasp of the English language.
