Calling the kettle clean

EVERY RIGHT-THINKING person should wholeheartedly battle the tendency to make unclean things and habits appear to be clean and respectable.

The furore now arising over the homosexual issue is but one example. Legislators, like everyone else, must recognize that the unclean is unclean regardless of the attire in which it appears.

Some say that this evil is no longer evil. But who has the right or the ability to change its basic definition? It was the Almighty Himself who laid down the law on this practice. He condemned it and classed it as a capital crime.

If Americans will believe the Bible they will know what the divine rules are on this subject. If they repudiate the word of God do they not also repudiate God? And who in this or any other country dares to do that?

Then on what basis do the adherents to this practice demand special privilege? Who are they that should parade their debauchery and call it clean? They even form their own churches and profess to worship the very God who denounces their behavior and they do not repent.

They form their own political groups and seek to compel the public to respect them. Do other violators of the law of God receive special consideration? Do the robbers, the thieves, the adulterers? Any reader of Leviticus (Chapters 18 and 20) knows the answer.

THE BOOK OF Mormon says: "The kingdom of God is not filthy, and there cannot any unclean thing enter into the kingdom of God." (1 Ne. 15:34).
