| Dear, Dear! Dear Abby's Daughter Denounces Biblical Morality |
|
| |
3:5 Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry: 3:6 For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience: Jeanne Phillips (Dear Abby II) who inherited the Dear Abby column from her mother, is using the column to attack Biblical morality by promoting the modern myth that compulsions are uncontrollable. The Associated Press reports that Phillips finds “parents who reject or try to reform their children when they come out of the (homosexual behavior) closet” to be “offensive and misguided.”
So what right does this woman have to attack parents who choose to teach their children Biblical morality? Phillips says: “I’m trying to tell kids that if they are gay, it’s OK to be gay. I’ve tried to tell families if they have a gay family member to accept them.” Dear Abby II is wrong on this one. No human being has to passively surrender to cravings, compulsions, or tendencies! (See my recent post called “Modern Myth # 8.”)
Dear Abby II says that she supports an idea that no civilization, people group, or tribal people has ever supported in human history until our time — “same-sex marriage.” A person has a right to choose to engage in sexual behaviors that go against the natural design of the human body, but it is not the government’s business to sanction their behavior!
Phillips illogically compares disagreeing with homosexual behavior to the injustices done to blacks and women. She ignores the fact that the prejudice against blacks and women was based on physical characteristics and had nothing to do with behavior.
Here is a common sense fact that is being ignored nowadays. All Americans have an equal right to engage in immoral behavior, but we don’t have the right to demand public approval of our immoral deeds!

Thanks for reading my post, Dan.
The Apostles did inded tell people to repent, which means "change your lifestyle." By we, I mean human beings. Biblically, repentance is the first step toward becoming a Christian. . |

It's a crying shame that people would seek advice from anywhere other than Almighty God.Dear What's her name, is sharing a humanist opinion to try to solve someone's problem.I bet most of her advice is in areas that she's not been that sucessful in. |

| Yes, Praise Temple, unfortunatily many people will pay more attention to an advice columnists than they will to the Word of God. |

| Praise Temple hit the nail on the head...seek God, not Abby. God's laws are the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. (But BTW, I don't think her mother would agree with her.) |
