An Oklahoma Legislator, Sally Kern, made anti-gay comments in a speech she gave in her district to about 50 people. She is getting crazy backlash. Nothing she said was untrue or hateful, but her words are being labeled "ignorance" and a "hate crime."
She said that public schools are indoctrinating young children with gay agenda. (This is TRUE)
She said that it is a lifestyle that leads to death because studies show a higher incidence of suicide, depression, disease and illnesses along with a shorter lifespan in gays. (This is TRUE)
She said that the Bible tells us God does not approve of it. (This is TRUE)
She said that she thinks the gay agenda is a bigger threat to our nation than terrorism and Islam. (This is her opinion, she has a right to say it even if there is no statistical data to back her up. She didn't call gays terrorists, or advocate any hate crimes against them.)
Now the media is involved, their teasers say things like, "Tonight at 10:00, hear why this Oklahoma Legislator calls gays terrorists, and why many are calling for her resignation."
Free Speech: A constitutional right that applies to graphic movies, controversial artists, and anti-Christian activists of all kinds, but NOT to the Bible, Christians, or anyone speaking the truth, if that truth is unpopular or in the process of being suppressed.
JENNI'S OPINION: God loves us all, God calls on us to love everyone too, even if we don't agree with them, even if they hurt us. God loves me and God loves gay people too. But God also disapproves of the gay lifestyle (Leviticus 18 outlines all sexual practices that God doesn't approve of including incest, adultery, bestiality, and homosexuality Lev. 18:22). In Leviticus 18 the Bible specifically says that such sexual practices are not only abhorred by God, but that they will destroy the people/nations that practice or allow them. (Lev 18:26-28)
