At Least They Were From A Northern Culture

And still the argument rolls on... and I'm lovin' it!

After missing Tony Parsons's earlier letter on the subject, I'm glad to see that he has submitted another so we can enjoy his well-thought out arguments.

THESE ACTS ARE NOT THE NORM

Not only are some Echo readers supporting homosexuals but they are running down the Bible. To be homosexual is one thing but to bring it out into the open and broadcast the fact is creating in the minds of our children that these relationships are the norm.

Are we a religious country or merely a shower of heathens?

This letter manages to tick a number of boxes that should be found in any letter based religious argument:
- Use of the word Heathens: Check. (Even better, a "Shower of heathens". A new one on me.)
- delusion that the UK is supposed to be some kind of Christian theocracy: Check.
- A "Won't somebody think of the children?!?!" cry: Check.

A second excerpt from Mr M Lewis of Tiverton, who elsewhere also claims the minds of our children are being warped by all of these gays parading themselves around and shouting "OOoh, ducky", or whatever these people have in their mind about how a homosexual acts.

This abominable practice can lead to diseases such as ... inflammation of the rectum.

*Snigger* Now there is a line I never thought I'd see on the pages of the E&E.
