My friend Demetrius has asked me to come to you and explain The Kingdom Of God's opinion on obscenity, what is obscene, and what is not obscene.  Well, sometimes something that is not obscene can be made obscene.  Let me give you an example.  The other day Demetrius found a message in his email that said "Come see our hot young boys all ready for you!"  He checked on the site and found it was pictures of young boys sexually aroused.  Now, none of the actual pictures showed the young men doing anything  indecent, but there were drawings of young men engaged in intimate acts with each other.  And the text of the web site left no doubt that those who made it were suggesting that men visiting it would want to be intimate with these young boys.  Though the photographs themselves, would not be considered obscene by The Kingdom Of God the drawings and the text made the whole web site obscene.  As far as The Kingdom Of God is concerned, the people that made it should be arrested, tried, executed, cremated and their ashes spread to the four winds so no one would know where they lay!
For people to produce a web site encouraging young men and boys to be intimate with each other is the most profound obscenity, the sickest obscenity.  The Kingdom Of God finds no problem with nudity.  Photographs of nude people do not offend Them, but photographs of people in intimate relationships DO offend Them.  These should not be shown on the public venue where children can find and observe them.  Intimacy is a private thing, and  not for public display.  The Kingdom Of God does not agree with those that believe that intimacy, especially intimacy between members of the same sex, is appropriate for public exhibition and The Kingdom Of God will never approve of this.  There are some things that are sacred and should not be publicly displayed and intimacy is one of those things.  God created it for male and female to enjoy in private, and that's how it should be.
The Kingdom Of God will continue to fight any of those who wish to make intimacy a commercial product, readily available to everyone, regardless of age.  They will do all in their power to destroy those pushing this philosophy.  I was asked to explain The Kingdom Of God's opinions on obscenity, I hope this is sufficient.

Got a message that went something like this.  "I cannot believe that God would forsake any that have made mistakes, that there is not some system by which even the worst souls can be redeemed.  You cannot tell me that this is not so."  We have never told anyone that this is not so.  The Kingdom Of God will try to save any soul that repents its evil, that turns away from the Darkness and returns to The Light.  There is a process by which even the most desperate souls may regain eternal life.  It is described in Our Sacred Writings.  But unfortunately most of those that do evil would be too arrogant to take it, too proud to accept that they have done wrong, and must be corrected.  There are always avenues available for those who have taken the wrong path.  They simply have to forsake the path they are on and return to the truth.  Until they do they cannot be saved.  Those who believe that you can do anything and still be welcomed into The Kingdom Of God are gravely wrong!
As the world prepares ever so reluctantly to oust Saddam Hussein there is something The Kingdom Of God wants everyone to understand.  Not only Hussein must go, but all those who have taken part in his corrupt regime.  Any who have committed atrocities such as rape, murder, and, extortion must be arrested, tried, and executed.  No one may be spared for the sake of Arab unity, or, any other desire!  If those involved with Hussein make full confession, admit their guilt, they may be granted life imprisonment in a neutral country, but they must make full and complete confession, incriminating everyone involved with them or this kindness cannot be given them.  The world must be shown that those who follow an evil dictator, and take advantage of his cruelty for their own sadistic reasons, will be punished equally with their master!  Justice must be done, and The Kingdom Of God will tolerate nothing else, no matter how much people want to forgive and forget.

Popular t.v. talk show host Larry King, who is an agnostic, likes the suggestion his daughter gives him of writing a book which tells what famous people of all faiths and carreers feel about prayer.  A fantastic, faascinating manuscript results from his hard work to complete this task, which is both uplifting and inspiring.  Great for all ages to read.  It even mentions John Lennon and Pete Seger!  HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
