I THOUGHT
we had long ago stopped persecuting people for their beliefs in this
country. I was wrong. Saying, ‘I
do not believe you can be born gay and I do not believe homosexuality
is right’,
is
enough to get you sacked. The actress Seyi
Omooba
was dropped from her role in The
Color Purple
for tweeting this and backing up her belief with a reference to a
passage in the Bible. As the passage also tells us that, the
sexually immoral, the idolaters, the adulterers, the thieves, the the
greedy, the drunkards, the slanderers and the swindlers will not
inherit the kingdom of God either, and I’m not aware that any of
these
groups
have complained, it leads me to think that the group who are
whingeing are what my dad would have called ‘mard
arses’
or
in modern parlance ‘snowflakes’.
I
should add that I am not a Christian and I think people who treat the
Bible as a reliable document or that they know God’s thoughts
about what people get up to in the privacy of their bedroom, are a
bit gullible. But that is no reason to persecute them for their
beliefs.
