The Bible Proves God Hates People
The fact is that God hates people -- not disembodied sins…these words
are found in the Bible:
"When Rebecca also had conceived for the children being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that calleth. It was said unto her, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated." (Rom. 9:10-13.) These words are plain. God hated Esau -- the person -- before Esau had been born to have done any sin. Margie J. Phelps—Related to Rev. Fred Phelps of www.godhatesfags.com Letter to Ft. Lauderdale's Sun Sentinel, September 23 Vatican-Ordered 'Holy Year' Clean-Up-Blues in Rome However successful Church pressure may be in some areas, there is one planned millennium event that will turn Rome into a "city of transgression". World Gay Pride 2000, billed as the "biggest gay and lesbian rally ever" is expected to attract up to a million visitors from around the world for events such as drag soccer matches, transvestite fashion parades and concerts by gay orchestras and rock musicians. The fortnight, coinciding with the feast of saints Peter and Paul, will culminate in a huge parade through central Rome on 8 July. The Independent on Sunday newspaper-- "Rome won't be cleaned up in a day - if at all" London, September 26 To Russia with Love

Sarah Toyne and Christopher Morgan— "Church Conducts 'illegal' Transsexual Weddings"— The Times, London, September 26 A Right Wing Politician's Lengthy 'Brief Encounter'
BBC On-line News—"Tebbit hits out at Portillo 'deviance' "—September 24 Be Careful what You Wish For A guy found a magic lamp and rubbed it. The genie popped out and said, "I'll grant you any wish you want." The guy thought and thought and finally gave his answer: "I want to be hard all the time and get all the ass I want." "As you wish," the genie replied. So the genie turned him into a toilet seat. Paradox magazine, October Andrew Sullivan's Friends are Only Haters on Paper
He reminds me of conservative friends who oppose almost every
measure for homosexual equality yet genuinely delight in the company of their
gay friends. It would be easier for me to think of them as haters, and on
paper, perhaps, there is a good case that they are. But in real life, I know
they are not. Some of them clearly harbor no real malice toward me or other
homosexuals whatsoever.
Andrew Sullivan—"What's So Bad About Hate?"—New York Times Magazine, September 26 Andrew Sullivan Has Anti-Hate-Crime-Law Cronies They disguise this law as hate crime prevention. All of their talk, all of their crying, all of their arguments are nothing more than a smoke screen to cover for them, while they weasel their way into our society as normal people. They are not normal people. Romans, chapter 1, says they are reprobate people. They are not fit for society, and should be in jail. Instead, our sick officials make ambassadors to Luxembourg out of them. Some misguided states would make senators out of them and send them off to Congress. As common people, let us all tell the Sodomites and all that support them: You are not welcome in our state of West Virginia, let alone protected to do your ungodly deeds. The Rev. Randy Wilson-- pastor of Esta Memorial Baptist Church—"Gays, lesbians, pedophiles don't deserve more protection" Charleston Gazette, September 24 Rev. Jerry Falwell Opposes Hate-Crime-Laws Too Most hate crimes in America today are not directed toward African-American or Jewish people or lesbians. They are directed at evangelical Christians. The Rev. Jerry Falwell—Chicago Tribune, September 23 Larry Kramer on Man-Made AIDS
You have got to read a new book called The River by Edward Hooper (Little
Brown) which is a stick of dynamite. Thesis is that AIDS came from bum
polio vaccine made and administered in 50's in Africa by Dr. Hilary
Koprowski first of Lederle and then of Wistar Institute in Philly (who is
still alive) and he is responsible for potential death of a billion
people.
The book is pretty convincing. Scientists I know and respect think it is a pretty solid case. If this is so then a lot of things must be thought about seriously. One is rush to vaccinate everyone today with anything. Another is the blame that has constantly been leveled on gays and drug users, whom this book clearly proves were not among the first infected by a long shot. And then there is this argument that can now be most persuasively made: if the US government gave us AIDS now they fucking better give us a cure! We desperately need something to put AIDS back on the front page. This could be it. Larry Kramer—E-mail letter circulated on The List |
