Extra security because of threats on the Day of Silence for people who had been killed, and Christians boycotting school. Ugh. That’s appalling.

Sat, 26 Apr 2008 13:50:40 +0000 http://www.restlessreformer.com/2008/04/24/day-of-silence/#comment-19626 There was a piece on this on the local news last night. One school had 30% absent. This particular school had extra security guards and police officers because there had been some threats. They interviewed one lady and her niece who choose not to attend. The lady said she didn't think it was right for the school to "honor the gays" because she didn't "hold to that". There was a piece on this on the local news last night. One school had 30% absent.

You are quite correct. My own sexual sins aren't as bad as those of homosexuals. Why? Well, because they are mine of course. And mine can't be as bad as theirs are. My Sunday School teacher said something a few weeks ago along these lines. Paraphrased, the sins we hate the most are the ones that we don't commit. I'm not an alcoholic so drunkenness is evil. Gluttony, well that's another matter of course. I think one is becoming more Godly when he starts to hate the sins he sees when he looks in a mirror as much as he hates the sins he sees when he looks out a window. Thanks. You are quite correct.
