My letter to Frances&Friends

Good day SBN

Could you please explain the "gay" lifestyle. When you say it in your shows or services it sounds like hate speech.

If you replace "gay" with "black" it would be the same to me. Bibles used to be written like that. This is why Canada has laws against discrimination including from the pulpit. It's something that upset me in my home church enough to make a visiting American pastor stop, say someone was putting up a wall. Darn right I was, I was so mad. I'd never heard that kind of talk in church. I walked out. I apologized to Pastor and Sister after but stopped regular attendance. Much like how I stopped giving at share-a-thon.

I have rarely been around people who are so mean. It sounds ignorant when you discuss it. Maybe if you explain your position it could clear up some confusion.

I see way, way more abusive behavior in the heterosexual community. Is Spring Break a "gay" thing, was Miami this year how good "strait" kids behave? I don't have my email flooded with naked photos from crazy lesbians but sure have from men. I can go on. Is gay the real problem?

I think your position is based on interpretation of scripture that has nothing to do with the actual historical context. There are other manuscripts from the time, lots of hours of research on them.

I have been working on a academic paper so what are the key scriptures that make it "bad" in your opinion.

It isn't getting rid of Jesus or traditional relationships, it is realizing it is 2021 and we deserve to live in a better world. There was a young trans lady in chat breaking her arms to "toughen" her up. It doesn't just lead to violence in the pride/rainbow community but anyone who is different. I don't want to turn back the clock on human rights.

Most of the problems like addiction in the community are from isolation and abuse. This kind of ministry keeps that cycle alive.

Jesus loves anyone who accepts them in their heart. Nothing you say will change it. Why I volunteered for you even if it felt wrong and I do still pray for you even if you are very annoying.
