...know whether Carlson is a Christian, but what she said was inappropriate. Why is it that when a person claims to be a homosexual to further the left's agenda, it is applauded, but when a person claims to be a former homosexual who was saved by Christ, that person is immediately battered? I do not hate homosexuals; I hate the act of homosexual sex. And I am fully in favor of turning people away from homosexuality to Christ. CLINTON M. LATSHA West Grove...
