The Theft of the Truth
by papa55mike
"Mother, I was having coffee at Starbucks when the Police came in. They just walked over and grabbed my Bible, threw it in the trash, then beat me with their clubs. Why?"
"Have you been so caught up in that evil book that you don't know? The U.S. Government has banned Christianity. It's too radical! You have to give up that wicked religion."
"Because those evil men in power say there's no God. No! I will always stand for the Lord's word. I would rather die than renounce the Bible."
"Then you will die, my son."
"If so, heaven awaits."

The picture is of an old Bible that was given to me by young friend. I had to quit carrying it around, it's starting to fall apart, but I still cherish it.
I rarely write about the issues of today, but this is too important. Organizations like the ACLU and the SPLC say that there is NO ROOM for people in our society who believe that marriage is only between a man and a woman, or that a person's sex is unchangeable, and that innocent unborn children deserve legal protection.
I guess I don't belong in our society today.
I wrote this story for a contest. All help will be deeply appreciated.
Many thanks for stopping by to read!
Have a great day, and God bless.
