What one does not expect is to get hate mail with a veiled death threat, though that&#8217;s what I got today in response to one of my &#8220;diatribes&#8221; on the website entitled, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theology.edu\/diatribes\/diatribe04.htm\">&#8220;God Loves Gay People&#8221;<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>I had thought, if I were ever to get actual hate mail, it would be for the stuff on the website that is critical of Anti-Semitism; I have had a few, um, interesting interactions with Anti-Semites who took issue with what I had written. Although the interractions were depressing, I was never threatened, either implicitly or explicitly.  The email I got today necessitated a call to the local police.  They will investigate.  I suspect its only a silly teenager spouting off, but, one cannot be too careful.  Somewhat disturbing, but I&#8217;m not too worried.  It seems very odd, but I suppose not really surprising, that in response to an article that argues for love, hate should be stirred up.<\/p>\n<div class='kindleWidget kindleLight' ><img src=\"http:\/\/nettelhorst.com\/blog1\/wp-content\/plugins\/send-to-kindle\/media\/white-15.png\" \/><span>Send to Kindle<\/span><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Being involved in a website like that of the Quartz Hill School of Theology I do get email.
