Dear Editor, The Nov. 8 election will have the bill to ban homosexual marriages and civil unions, which I think is a great idea. I do not want to give benefits to someone doing wrong. For Bible-believing people, it is like asking us to give you benefits for committing adultery, fornication, child molestation, or bestiality. They are all sexual sins, as is homosexual behavior. It is a mind disease, not an ingrained gene trait. We are all sexual, and our physical bodies define which type of sexual partner is best, and that is a heterosexual partnership relationship, for our differing parts complement each other. Why mess with perfection? Why is it difficult for a gay-proned individual to see he/she is settling for third best (behind heterosexual marriage and singleness). Homosexuals will not receive God's favor for settling for a third-best sexual sin relationship. You want God's favor to overcome your temptation to support sexual sins of this type in your newspaper. Having favor with God is better than having favor with men, who love you when it is convenient.
