EWO Posted May 28, 2007 CID Share Posted May 28, 2007 EVERY TIME YOU WATCH ABC TV THINK OF THIS AND PLEASE FORWARD IT TO ALL OF YOUR E-MAIL CONTACTS -- Jim Neugent is a coach in Childress , Texas Jim writes: My name is Jim Neugent. I wrote to ABC (on-line) concerning a program called "THE PRACTICE." In last nights episode, one of the lawyer's mothers decided she is gay and wanted her son to go to court and help her get a marriage license so she could marry her 'partner.' I sent the following letter to ABC yesterday and really did not expect a reply, but I did get one. My original message was: ABC is obsessed with the subject of homosexuality. I will no longer watch any of your attempts to convince the world that homosexuality is OK. ' THE PRACTICE' can be a fairly good show, but last night's program was so typical of your agenda. You picked the 'dufus' of the office to be the one who was against the idea of his mother being gay, and made him look like a whiner because he had convictions. This type of mentality calls people like me a "gay basher." Read the first chapter of Romans (that's in the Bible) and see what the apostle Paul had to say about it.... He, God and Jesus were all 'gay bashers'. What if she'd fallen in love with her cocker spaniel? Is that an alternative life style? (By the way, the Bible speaks against that, too.) --Jim Neugent - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ---- Here is ABC's reply from the ABC on-line webmaster: How about getting your nose out of the Bible (which is ONLY a book of stories compiled by MANY different writers hundreds of years ago) and read the declaration of independence (what our nati on is built on), where it says "All Men are Created equal," and try treating them that way for a change! Or better yet, try thinking for yourself and stop using an archaic book of stories as your lame crutch for your existence. You are in the minority in this country, and your boycott will not affect us at ABC or our freedom of statement. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Jim Neugent's second response ! To ABC: Thanks for your reply. From your harsh reply, evidently I hit a nerve. I will share it with all with whom I come in contact. Hopefully, the Arkansas Democrat Newspaper will include it in one of their columns and I will be praying for you. - -Jim Neugent - - - - - - - - - - - -- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Note: Wouldn't Satan just love it if people stopped using the Bible For a crutch? Please resend this to everyone in your mailbox. Thanks, Jim Neugent I wonder if the person from ABC considered how many people would read this e-mail! This is one we should definitely pass on.

peepnklown Posted May 29, 2007 CID Share Posted May 29, 2007 At least now I know who the bigots are on the forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coknuck Posted May 29, 2007 CID Share Posted May 29, 2007 At least now I know who the bigots are on the forum. A bigot is a prejudiced person who is intolerant of opinions, lifestyles, or identities differing from his or her own. I guess you are in the same boat as us!

Junerian Posted May 29, 2007 CID Share Posted May 29, 2007 Me being an atheist and all I completely disagree with this, and I don't believe that is a real response from ABC either as they have lawyers who are paid good money who could compose a 50x better response email. Also I believe people should be able to marry who they want after all me and you ain't nothing but mammals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As my favorite quote goes "to his or her their own" . I believe a true man is someone who accepts people for who they are not what the person wants people to be.

ghostmaster Posted May 29, 2007 CID Share Posted May 29, 2007 Well, the "ABC rep" was wrong about one thing. Christians are certainly not the minority. The european first settlers on this rock were puritans, therefore this nation was founded by a bunch of prudes lol. I myself take a nihilistic aproach to issues such as gay marriage and abortion and things like that. I simply don't care one way or the other. I see both sides for what they are, opinions. Thats the beauty of "free will", (though free will is debateable). People in the country just need to stop letting every little thing "offend" them. Thats why we have to live in this ridiculous politically correct facade now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea my mom always use to ridicule me and look down on me for being an atheist told me she should just make me go to church (I'd say go ahead but it won't change anything). I think we should just accept people for their differences and go on with our lives, who cares if gay people want to get married? If ABC wants to openly support gay marriage and put it on their shows so be it, it is their TV station after all and no ones forcing people to watch it. But like I said I highly doubt the "email" above is real as an ABC rep would right a much better response than that, besides the fact I'm sure since the first gay marriage show they launched they've received 100's of hate mail a day about it and they probably have a standard reply for everyone about it.
