disturbing Op Ed piece in newspaper

Dear Friends,

Our local paper, the Rockford Register Star, has printed a horribly disturbing op ed piece. Rather than copy/paste it, here's the link:

If you have an opportunity, I'd invite you to comment on the article. More importantly, I'm wondering if there is anyone on staff at Soulforce who would like to draft a reply to the paper? I'd be happy to assist in any way that I could.

While I've already sent a reply of my own, I think that a reply from Soulforce would be incredible. My congregation has already been contacted by GLAAD. That organization is indeed going to request space for a reply. While that's a good thing, I'd rather see a response from Soulforce.

Thanks for your consideration.
