Lelia to Editor
Lasthck’sArliclcs
Dear Editor:
I note in last week’s Hinton News
that Delegates John O’Neal and Roy
Cooper have written their
constituents that restoring
Religious Freedom” is a major
concern to argue for in this session
of the legislature.
I find it strange that neither of
them in separate articles offer a
single instance in West Virginia of
where anyone’s “Religious Freedom”
has been compromised. The specter
is more one of fearfulness than
reality.
For years some conservatives
unconcerned with individual
liberties have insisted that the
institution of marriage would be
destroyed by allowing homosexuals
to practice it. Obviously quite a few
gays were not ashamed of their
natures and wanted to celebrate
their partnerships and have them
acknowledged publically. Has a
single heterosexual marriage been
broken up by this change?
When it comes to commercial
transactions, I think straight and
gay people need to be considerate.
In a couple decades of running a
retail business, I had customers with
bumper stickers all across the
spectrum. I did not need to judge
their politics or preferences to
appreciate their shopping at my
place.
People conspicuously
unconventional would be wise to
respect their hosts. Likewise in the
other direction.
As far as this session of the
legislature goes, I cannot believe
these representatives have that
much more to focus on than
balancing the budget. With
severance taxes waning, the
projected deficit is over $350 million
dollars. Nobody likes to raise taxes
and nobody enjoys cutting essential
services—basically all the state
government does.
So let’s get serious here, boys.
According to the Republican
editorial board of the Charleston
Daily Mail, the Religious Freedom
Restoration Act is “a solution in‘
search of a problem”. I see a new
picture of a Summers County church
every week I open the paper. Has
any place of worship suffered any
discrimination or intrusion?
Stop casting up straw men to
relieve old anxieties and get to work
governing in a challenging economic
time. Blaming Obama and climate
change for the decline of 'coal is
neither honest nor productive—akin
to blaming homosexuals for the high
rate of heterosexual divorce. Face up
to the realities of our time.
