This is in response to the Rev. Stephen Carnahan’s letter, printed Nov. 3, “End discrimination.”

It was so very well put. There is way too much hypocrisy in Christian homes and churches. I stopped attending church for that very reason.

I would not say that all Christians are hypocrites, but there are a few, anyway.

My best friend, of more than 25 years, is gay. He did not choose to be. Why would he? I’ve witnessed several Christian folk telling him to just change, that God will not accept him because he is gay.

What is that?

If God created all of us, then why did he make some people gay and others not?

I believe that if you live your life by the Golden Rule, you are in good shape with God. If all of humanity treated each other the way they wish to be treated, the world would truly be heaven. No wars. No hate.

Great, but that is not going to happen in my lifetime. Sad, but true.
