Bing Crosby And Blowing Smoke

Contributed by Doug Newton on Aug 24, 2018

Try as you might, our God-given conscience simply won’t tolerate any attempt to see ourselves as better than we are without squelching deep inside us.

I remember being disappointed when I heard about Bing Crosby’s troubled relationships with his children.

For many years I have taught that a person is not born into this world a homosexual or transsexual. The Bible says God created the human race male and female. For me that ended the discussion. “And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness … So God created man in his image, in the ...read more
