Dear Ms. Wirt:

Thank you for your very moving September 10 column.  It
is always very disturbing when anyone fails to see the
social equivalence of religious belief and sexual
orientation.  It is even worse when someone in
authority not only fails to make that connection, but
forcibly denies it by reducing a group of people to a
single characteristic and then advocating their murder. 
Hopefully, by writing about your teacher's horrendous
statement you will help people see the truth.  Keep up
the good work.

Sincerely,
Barbara Purdom     Christopher Purdom
