To the Editor,

I would like to respond to the letter to the editor from Katie Lewis.

I disagree with Katie on the issue of Obama; this is not an issue of Obama or George Bush. People want to blame one or the other. The problem is with both of them and both of the parties; one can’t take the blame.

Now as far as Obama, he does support gay marriage and abortion. He said it with his own mouth that he supports a woman’s right to choose, and he supports men who want to be with men and women who want to be with women.

The only thing I can truly say is this: Go by the word of God. What does it say that so many people want to throw out the phrase, “do not judge.” Well, I ask all these people to do me a favor. I want you to read that entire passage of scripture in context, not out of context, like so many people are doing. God’s word stands for itself.

God say he hates abortion, and homosexuality. It can’t be any more plainer than that, so anybody who supports these issues supports things that are against God and that’s the truth. You either support the things of God or the things of the devil.

We as Christians need to start standing up for God and his word. His true word, not what we want the Bible to say for our own behalf.
