Gay
rights: The 'agenda' is fairness
By
JOHN THOMPSON

During the past few weeks,
a culture clash has erupted on The Citizen's editorial pages.
Expand
your vision: March for Jesus
By
JOHN HATCHER
You can march for
Jesus Saturday, May 4, starting at 10 a.m. from the Fayette County High
School parking lot.
It's
a cartoon world out there
By
BILLY MURPHY
Laugh Lines
With the immense
popularity of "The Cartoon Network," it is obvious that people
today are interested in simple stories that make a simple point. The
Cartoon Network even has an offshoot network starting called "Boomerang,"
with the tag line, "It's all coming back to you." This network
will feature some of the lesser known, but equally loved cartoons from
our past, including the likes of "Atom Ant," "Johnny
Quest," and "Huckleberry Hound." We need such nonsense
in these complicated times.
LETTERS
TO THE EDITOR
Gays
not living in sin; they just learned to fly
Who are you people?
The
gay lifestyle is extremely hazardous to one's health
In addition to the
moral concerns, there are considerable health consequences associated
with the homosexual lifestyle.
Senior
center board of directors has continually studied seniors' needs
In response to Ms.
Fran Plunkett [Letters, April 10], "Who are we trying to serve
and what do they desire?"
After
Sept. 11, we should try not to return to 'normal'
The tragic events
on Sept. 11 will remain forever ingrained in our collective conscience.
Like Vietnam, Pearl Harbor and the world wars of previous generations,
it is an event where history was split into "before" and "after."
Many prominent figures in the press, government, and society were claiming
that nothing was ever going to be the same again. But is that still
true, or has America's return to normalcy overshadowed what lessons
we learned from the legacy of 9-11?
We
must stand for what is right against wrong
I am writing to
thank you for your stance on homosexuality and homosexual adoption.
I, like yourself, believe that homosexuality is a choice, not a trait,
and a sin as well.
Bible
being misread to condemn gay relationships
I want to suggest
a book for you to read. It's called "What the Bible Really Says
About Homosexuality." It's available from Amazon.com and at various
other book retailers.
Many
oppose agenda of militant gays
Kudos and many thanks
to you for your editorial column, "Of all the '-phobes' I am"
in last Wednesday's paper! You articulated so well my personal views
and opinions. Thank you for taking this bold stand and opening this
topic up for debate. I will be following closely the responses.
Most
folks disagree with gay agenda
Re: the letter from
Jeff Ellis in The Citizen April 24. Mr. Ellis, I like to think of myself
as fair-minded and somewhat intelligent (college graduate), but please
don't think that all of us share your opinions about The Citizen pushing
a so-called anti-gay agenda.
There
was no condemnation of the sinner
Your opinion column
of April 24 concerning phobias was right on the mark. It was one of
the best explanations of the love of God and explanations of sin that
I have ever seen.
Thanks
for logical debate
Thank you so much,
Mr. Beverly, for your response to the "anti-gay agenda" accusations.
The apparent inability to carry on a logical debate on this issue has
frustrated me also.
Ethics
may depend on whose ox gets gored
Candidate Brown
touted all the classes about government he had taken. As mayor he seems
to have forgotten anything he may have learned.
Are
these the changes you voted for in PTC last year?
In the weeks and
months since the newly elected mayor has taken office he has continually
reminded us that he was elected to bring about change in Peachtree City.
He has told us there was a mandate from the voters. While I personally
disagree with both those statements, let's take a look at the things
he is attempting to change, then you can judge for yourself whether
this is what you intended last November.
Suspect
beating story concocted by liberal lawyer
Re "Lawyer:
F'ville police beat suspect" [The Citizen, April 24]: This is another
case of money-hungry lawyers who defend the criminals against prosecution
for their crimes. Our legal system has gotten to the point that in many
cases a person who is being prosecuted for crimes is allowed to go free
or have charges dropped based on technicalities.
Thanks
to F'ville police for protection
I want to express
my gratitude towards the Fayetteville Police Department, and especially
to Lt. Kirkbride for introducing me and my fellow neighbors to the Neighborhood
Watch program and to the services available to us.
Rep.
Collins puts PTC right there at the federal trough
I am deeply disappointed
that Congressman Mac Collins has succumbed, again, to the "pork
barrel" syndrome in the form of $1 million in U.S. taxpayer money
for the purpose of improvements to Falcon Field.
