Date: Fri, 08 Oct 1999 01:23:59 -0400 From: Interfaith Working Group Subject: IWG Sacramento Galatians 3:28 letter October 6, 1999 Sacramento Bee PO Box 15779 Sacramento, CA 95813 Dear Editors: We were confused by the letter of October 3 from Scott Lively, who quoted Galatians 3:28 (`There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female') and then went on to say that an attraction to people of the same gender constitutes `a moral weakness that can and should be overcome.' If there is neither male nor female, then how can the gender of the person you are attracted to be a determining factor in whether the attraction is moral?
