WHY IS THIS ALLOWED?

As I was reading my Aug. 30 paper, my wife pointed out to me the story
about the gay bar which had adopted Sam Houston Elementary School. I
am shocked that this is allowed. Though it is a very kind and generous
thing to help children, where the help comes from ought to cause great
alarm from everyone.

This is not hate mail. It is one thing to hate something just because
you might not like what someone says or does or their skin color. It
is altogether different when there is clear danger.

First, I am shocked that such a wealthy city in the United States
won't take better care of its schools. Then I find it shocking that an
alcoholic beverage company would be allowed to have anything to do
with the welfare of children when alcohol contributes to the
destruction of much of our society anyway. An overwhelming amount of
domestic violence is caused by the use of alcohol. But, worse, that
homosexuals are allowed to be near children, at school. Children truly
aren't safe anywhere!

Homosexuality is a very destructive lifestyle physically, spiritually
and morally. What if a group of Plano heroin dealers decided to adopt
a poor school? Should anyone be alarmed? Would anyone be alarmed?
Homosexuality is every bit as destructive as heroin addiction! Don't
think for one minute that the homosexual community will pass the
chance to push their philosophy on the innocent minds every chance
they get.

It's past time for sensible people to stand up against this
destructive lifestyle and to stop the legitimizing of it.

If you are gay, I don't hate you. I do hate to see lives destroyed.
Furthermore, I ask you to think carefully about what you are doing and
to be honest first with yourself and then with God.
