I read this story and was struck by the phrase "Crimes Against Nature". It took me a little while to realize that the term is used to describe gay sex. It seems wrong to describe gay sex as a crime against nature. I sure it has its roots in religion. North Carolina may not be gay friendly.
As usual with my posts, this story centers on the a pastor who has lost his way. Pastor Thompson Gregory Little was arrested for soliciting for sex acts in a public park. The act is known as cruising for sex. Little is not the first pastor to trip over this hazard. He will not be the last.
"It's going to be a contested case," said J.D. Byers, Little's attorney. "I don't think what is alleged to have happened happened."
Little professes his innocence. We will put up a fight. He’s a pastor in the south. There is not much hope, if convicted he will not be able to keep his job. His church, Cornerstone Christian Church, does not appear to be gay friendly, so very few are.
