SABBATH-7 JUNE 2008 ; On reading this article, I am reminded about the story of Lot and his wife and family, and the ANCIENT BIBLE CITIES, OF SODOM AND GOMMORRAH.(which have been re-discovered,ie ruins of and the sulfur balls that destroyed it, from GOD.) All I can say in support of OUR ALMIGHTY GOD AND CREATOR OF MANKIND; what will be the consequences to those responsible for making this type of decision? Not in man,s jurisdictions, but by the Great adjudictor in the HEAVENLY COURTS. If your reading this today and challenging what I,m saying , I ask you humbly turn to your creator/God, and ask and seek his guidance & forgiveness and turn from your ways, today, not tomorrow. In Jesus name A-men
