NEWSWEEK MAGAZINE SAYS that there are 20 million homosexuals in the United States. A 27-year old woman, Anita Bryant of Miami, Fla., is waging a determined fight to keep this evil from spreading, by legal acceptance, through our society.

In the midst of the recent Florida election, she faced her chief antagonist, the owner of a nationwide chain of 40 "gay" bathhouses. Although the election was a one-country affair, the battle there has nationwide significance, as votes repealed the Dade County "gay rights" ordinance by more than a 2-to-1 margin.

Every right-thinking person will sustain Miss Bryant, a prayerful, upright citizen, for her stand. Righteous people everywhere also should look to their own neighborhoods to determine to what extent the "gay" people have infiltrated their areas.

The Almighty has had plenty to say upon this subject. Notice what He said about them in one book of the Bible:

"Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonor their own bodies between themselves; who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped the served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed forever. . . .

"For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections, for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature; and likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another, men with men working that which is unseemly and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was meet. . . .

"Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceive, malignity . . . haters of God . . . inventors of evil things . . . knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death." (Romans 1:24-32) In Moses' day, death was the penalty.

If anyone wishes more of the word of God on this subject, he might read Leviticus 18:22; 20:13, and I or. 6:9.

Immorality between the sexes has become a national disgrace. It raises stench in the nostrils of every right-thinking person. But immorality WITHIN the sexes is at least as repulsive and disgusting and is severely condemned by Almighty God.

WHEN THE LORD placed sex sin next to murder in its seriousness, he most certainly included homosexual offenses. They are against every right principle.
