RAINBOW WGTN, PULL YOUR HEAD IN (Letter published in Dom Post, April 16)

It’s not Reverend David Rowe who needs “to state explicitly that he sanctioned priests blessing same-sex marriages” April 12); it’s Rainbow Wellington chairman Richard Arnold who needs to pull his head in.

The new Dean of Wellington is just as entitled to his Christian position on same-sex marriage, and to state that position, as Arnold is. And as a Christian he’s much less likely than Arnold to object to opposition, or make a fuss about it.

I’m reminded of the Israeli, a practising Jew living in Tel Aviv, whom I met on a flight from there to Paris last year. I asked her what she thought about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. She said, “It amazes me that it’s taken only 70 years for Israelis to forget what it’s like to be persecuted”.

Looks like the homosexual lobby could be even quicker off the mark.
