Right priorities

To the editor:

I want to say thank you to Angela Richmond for her letter of May 4, “Fairness ideals.” In my opinion, she stated the most revealing Christian truth regarding homosexuality being a sin that I have heard or read.

As she stated, Jesus was very plain about discriminating against human beings in all areas of life, religious and political. He told his followers many times to love your neighbors as you love yourself. I can’t understand how we can get so indignant about two people loving and caring for each other when our energy and service is needed, as Jesus commanded, to reach out to the oppressed, needy, sick and helpless. As Christians, let us get our priorities straight and be good citizens and Americans, too.

Elva Kindred,
