Read this email about ABC supporting gays and bashing the BIBLE.

Maybe we should all write ABC! I try not to watch that network anyway! So typical of their programs!

Hi guys. Below is an email I received. I was pretty shocked by the rudeness of ABC's response.



Jim Neugent is a coach in Childress , Texas .

Jim writes:
My name is Jim Neugent. I wrote to ABC (on-line) concerning a program called 'THE PRACTICE.'
In last night's episode, one of the lawyer's mothers decided she is gay
and wanted her son to go to court and help her get a marriage license so she could marry her ' partner. '
I sent the following letter to ABC yesterday and=2 0really did not expect a reply, but I did get one.


My original message was:

ABC is obsessed with the subject of homosexuality. I will no longer watch any of your attempts to convince the world that homosexuality is OK. ' THE PRACTICE ' can be a fairly good show , but last night's program was so typical of your agenda.
You picked the 'dufus' of the office to be the one who was against the idea of his mother being gay, and made him look like a whiner because he had convictions. This type of mentality calls people like me a 'gay basher.'
Read the first chapter of Romans (that's in the Bible) and see what the apostle Paul had to say about it... He, God and Jesus were all ' gay bashers ' . What if she'd fallen in love with her cocker spaniel? Is that an alternative life style?
(By the way, the Bible speaks against that, too.)
--Jim Neugent


Here is ABC ' s reply from the ABC on-line webmaster:


How about getting your nose out of the Bible (which is ONLY a book of stories compiled by MANY different writers hundreds of years ago) and read the declaration of independence (what our nation is built on),
where it says 'All Men are Created equal,' and try treating them that way for a change! Or better yet,
try thinking for yourself and stop using an archaic book of stories as your lame crutch for your existence.
You are in the minority in this country, and your boycott will not affect us at ABC or our freedom of statement.

Jim Neugent ' s second response ! to ABC: Thanks for your reply.
From your harsh reply, evidently I hit a nerve. I will share it with all with whom I come in contact.
Hopefully, the Arkansas Democrat Newspaper will include it in one of their columns
and I will be praying for you.

Note: Wouldn't Satan just love it if people stopped using the Bible for a crutch?
Please resend this to everyone in your mailbox.

-- Thanks, Jim Neugent

I wonder if the person from ABC considered how many people would read this e-mail!
This is one we should definitely
