Pat Robertson Warns The Wrong People
It has barely been a year since televangelist and national kook, Pat
Robertson warned city Officials in Orlando, Florida of impending doom from
storms and other forms of "God's vengeance" because the city officials had
decided to allow rainbow flags to be placed on city property during Gay Pride
Week. In light of today's news, it seems that Mr. Robertson was out of touch
with God and God's plan for vengeance.
Several tornadoes ripped their way across Oklahoma, Texas and Kansas (an area perhaps better known as the "BIBLE BELT"), causing massive destruction. In light of these storms, it seems the people that God truly had in mind for His vengeance were the intolerant, militant Christians of the Baptist faith.
God rattled their buildings to the ground, but spared most of their lives. Perhaps if they keep preaching their brand of hatred, in the name of God, then the Lord may not be quite so tolerant of them next time. It is my guess that these stubborn Christian idiots will have to endure more of God's devastation before they get the message.

Two Sides of the Bigot's Spigot
I just finished scanning through your "TV Stations Refuse Religious
Reich's Anti-Gay Ads" article.
Am I to understand that these people, the same kind of people who are bitching and moaning about Budweiser running a gay ad in a GAY magazine, are crying censorship because a TV station doesn't want to run an ad that really IS promoting a mentally unhealthy, hateful mindset? Do they not realize that their ad, unlike the Bud ad they're trying to get rid of, is invasive and being thrown in the face of people who really don't want to hear their unnecessary blithering? OK, we get their point. They believe that homosexuality is wrong and can be "cured." Believe what you want, but please don't try to make me believe it because I won't. If somebody wants their "help" they know where to find these people and I'm sure they'll go to them. Their pushiness only damages them and makes them look like fools.

I thought that your readers might be interested in this upcoming event.

AIDS Scammer Goes Down in Flames
Please remove my P.O. Box info and my web page information from GayToday's article "Major AIDS Scam?" The article was a blessing and so are you. The article was directed to those who bought vaccines. The scam sold to terminal patients…they die and no witnesses, no response. See www.suzannehenig.com web page put up for news media. Quackwatch trashed Suzanne Henig. I exposed her. She pulled her site off yesterday. Thank you.
