Dear Mr. Bourassa of Toronto, Canada, and the supporters of so-called "gay marriage,"
this is not hate-mail or a "hate-blog"" and I hope you don't receive it as such. This simply the words of a sincere but flawed Christian wondering why you hate God so much that you celebrate this mockery of a "marriage"? Beyond the story of Soddam and Gomorrah, along with countless other places in scripture that speak of the evil (one of many) and sin of homosexuality, there is NO PLACE in it that ever permitted so-called "gay marriage."
This is an entirely NEW construct and, to those whose consciences have not been seared by sin and whose minds are not lacking in Biblical knowledge, it is clearly and rightfully seen an abomination before God and the majority of the churches, synagogues and even mosques currently in Canada. Yet, if my information is correct, you, and others like you, now wish to FORCE, through the denial of charitable status, any church or house of worship who not only deny "marriage" to gays but also those who choose to fight against this twisting of Scripture and violation of tradition that your petulant disregard of has caused; changes in the laws of this country that are unwelcome by a majority of Canadians.
As Canadians, East, West, North, South, English, French, Native, gay or straight, we ALL have a RIGHT to fight for those things we hold dear. Even you, Mr. Bourassa, though the cause you espouse reeks in my nostrils, have the right to promote those things which are important to you, wrong as they are. Who are you, therefore, to now say that "Political activities are not charitable activities" and, in the process, attempt to muzzle both the free speech and political activity of groups which oppose you?
Do you fear the radicalization and mobilization of a Canadian population enraged with what you have done, while true ministers of Christ (unlike that apostate Brent Hawkes, who "married" you and Mr. Varnell), like my pastor, encourage their flocks to oppose bill C-38 and demand, likewise, of their MP's?
Do you fear the enlightened truth of the Bible breaking through the lies of the homosexual "community" and forcing them, as they did my friend "Bob", to choose between being gay and being Christian ("Bob" chose Christ, abandoned his gay lifestyle, and is now restored to God)?
Or do you fear the pent-up torrent of indignation and wrath of conservative Christians, Jews and others, will result in a strongly Right-wing government that will overthrow the institutionalized political correctness and blatant violations of the freedoms of Canadians that you have done much to promote?
Indeed, Mr. Bourassa, I believe you fear almost all of these things and, knowing you don't have a leg to stand on when confronted by both the truth of Scripture and sancity of tradition, you now wish to muzzle dissent by frightening churches to tow the line. This, in my books, makes YOU (and not Conservatives) the greatest threat to the liberty, democracy, and equality, that your so-called "marriage" was an attempt to promote.
Like Hitler in the prison writing Mein Kempf, or Lenin in Geneva writing Iskra or Pravda, you try to make yourself a martyr to your cause by being refused entry into the USA on the grounds that you and your partner are a "family." Yet true liberty comes from God in Christ (it is a gift of the Holy Ghost - 2 Cor. 3:17), not man and their Charters of Rights; and this same God has not given you either the right or the "liberty" to muzzle the voices of those people and churches opposed to your tyrannical and misguided agenda.
The fact is, sir, both you and Mr. Varnell are an offense to me and to God. Were you to lead your gay lives in peace and quiet, worked industriously and happily contributed to the well-being of our great country, I would have no issue with you now, gay or straight. I would, indeed, meet you on the street, share thoughts with you, laugh, and perhaps make of you a true friend. But I can't now because all I can see is a man trying to overthrow the rights of his fellow citizens because he is so insecure in both his lifestyle and his cause that the only way to perpetuate both is to curb and deny freedom to others.
This is the "rub" here, Mr. Bourassa and why I write this letter. Although it is far beyond my limited power to make of your a true Christian, a man whose conscience will ache because of his gay lifestyle and cause him to repent and be saved (as my friend "Bob" did), I wanted you to realize how you have alienated your fellow Canadians. Although I have no cause to hate you (hate, after all is against Christian teaching) I am offended by you and your attempt to overthrow the traditions of my parents, my liberty, and the liberty of my church.
As a Canadian, I could live and work beside you, peacefully (I work with a gay person in my office and at another other job), were we in the same office. We might even grow to be friends and confidantes. But in all this you would remain an enemy of all I hold dear and I would, and will, in as far as I can, do my best to tell people of your insidious goal of overthrowing their freedoms and perpetuating on Earth what God, through fire and brimstone, destroyed near present-day Israel a few thousand years ago.
Sincerely,
