New Hampshire town manager whose gay son died of cancer at 35 quits after fellow board member told him homosexuality was 'an abomination' and local came to meeting to say his late son was 'in hell with the devil'
Daily Fail (UK)

A New Hampshire town manager - whose gay son died aged 35 - has resigned over 'painful' homophobic comments made by a state senator.

Jim Gleason was the town manager of Littleton, New Hampshire, until he handed in his resignation on Monday citing a 'toxic work environment'.

His resignation followed months of tension in Littleton after a row broke out over three LGBTQ murals in public areas of the town.

State Senator Carrie Gendreau, who sits on the Littleton Select Board, spoke out against the pro-LGBTQ paintings back in August saying they were 'demonic' and adding: 'I don't want that in our town.'

She went on to tell the Boston Globe that she thought homosexuality is an 'abomination'.

New Hampshire, no less. A bit of a surprise there.

Angels are made by God, and they are eternal. They don't need to have male and female angels who have sex to make baby angels.
And in heaven, angels deal in the energies of love; giving and receiving love to each other in an energetic exchange.
So, for an angel who has no sex, this whole thing is irrelevant. Once an angel has breathed a soul into the body of a newborn infant and takes possession of that body, the angel can find his/her self attracted to the same sex because of their memory of a sexless life as an angel.
This results in many angels giving and receiving love for each other regardless of the 3D sexuality of male and female. It's simply the energy they are more comfortable with.
It's not a sin in heaven, nor is it a sin in the eyes of God. Only in the eyes of humans shrouded in darkness is it deemed sinful.
The true sin here is in the hate and violence inflicted on homosexuals.

State Senator Carrie Gendreau is the evil one. I hope that she gets thrown off the board, and Jim Gleason deserves his seat back, if he so chooses.
