For example, I am not bigoted against murderers if I state that murder is wrong. Nor am I bigoted to state that bestiality is wrong. Both are wrong, and the reason that they are wrong is not because I say so, but because our Creator said so. We have to go back to the source of righteousness to find the standards of righteousness, and that ultimately leads to God. It does not really matter what you or I think, but what God thinks. God made Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve. The Bible has numerous other clear examples of God's thoughts on this issue. </BLOCKQUOTE> John, whose righteousness are you talking about, Catholics, Baptists, Muslims, Terrorists, Atheists?  When people start spouting righteousness I get uneasy. Your "righteousness" is not necessarily mine, nor is it necessarily "right", nor does it belong on this list. David Koelzer DFW</HTML>
