| Status | Hoax | | Comments | This story is essentially true, however, it leaves out several important facts. For example, the person who replied from ABC was not an ABC spokesperson but a tech hired to manage the website. When ABC found out what had happened they apologised to Mr. Neugent and fired the tech.
| | Description | Jim writes: My name is Jim Neugent. I wrote to ABC on-line) concerning a program called
"THE PRACTICE". One of the lawyer's mothers decided she is gay and wanted her son to go
court to help her get amarriage license to 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 or should I say abscessed) 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 lifestyle? (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 nation 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 or our freedom of statement.
Jim Neugent's second response to ABC:
Thanks for your reply. Evidently, I hit a nerve from your harsh reply. 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
I wonder if the person from ABC considered how many people would read this e-mail!! This
is one we should definitely pass on.
Not!
