LETTER FROM THE EDITOR:
his week's news section might be of interest to anyone who's
a homosexual or a Baptist, but it will be of special interest
to those who are both. The feature article concerns a Baptist
church that has, quite controversially, allowed gays among its ranks. Be sure
to read the Bible quotes about homosexuality for an additional perspective.
Religion has an important place in the lives of many people, but
when its codified bigotry comes head to head with a changing society,
how can its members cope?
We've also got the usual assortment of eclectic articles, arrogant
opinions, and strange columns. Scroll, link, enjoy.
