Letter
to The Express Which
Led to My Writing the
Straight
On Gay
column
Note: these articles were all written by Michael
Walker, under the pseudonym Smitty.
Circa October 1972
A Letter to the Long Island Express
I must applaud the "Jesus Freaks" and
Jehovah Witness for their most virtuous and circular way
of thinking. When it comes to the subject of one man
loving another, or one woman loving another, then all that
doctrine can be forgotten. Why? Because adultery and
homosexuality are perverse, of course.
Why don't these so-called "children of God" get off
their ridiculous Jesus kicks.
And why must they oppress and attack
those of us who are homosexuals and/or adulterous
heterosexual-homosexual-whateversexuals who are quite
content in enjoying this life, while we are here on Earth?
I don't feel like getting into a
"Gay is good" or "Gay is proud" rap here, 'cause there are
better times and places for that. But why in God's
name don't these hypocrites take their "Jesus loves
everyone except the queers and sinners" shit and go play
in a Missionary somewhere until they learn what
Christianity is really all about!
Leave us queers and sinners alone.
Because, after all, STRAIGHT is great, but so, goddammit!,
is GAY!
At the time of publication, Michael
Walker (then writing as Smitty) was a student at
Hofstra University.
