Explanation:

Martin Luther King wrote his "Letters from Birmingham Jail" as an open letter defending the acts of non violent protests and resistance against racism in America. The letter justifies the acts of the people protesting against any unjust laws that clashed with their moral responsibility and make life miserable for them.

The letter also alludes to various famous thinkers such as Mahatma Gandhi, the leader of the Indian Independence movement and the inventor of non-violent forms of resistance. He also mentions famous Christian theologian St. Thomas Aquinas, Paul Tillich, St. Paul and T. S. Eliot, Martin Buber and even the famous Socrates. In the letter, he justifies the actions of the protesters in their resistance and acting at once instead of waiting for someone to come to their aid. He did not mention George Washington and Benjamin Franklin.

hi there!

sorry i was debating over answering this question or not, but i do believe it is a sin to be gay. in the beginning, god created man and he created women to be a for man. there are many "political" views on this topic but i believe the bible is right. in the kjv bible, leviticus 18: 22, god talks about how it it is an abomination for women to be with women and man to be with man. god knows that everybody is a sinner, and he gives everyone a chance to repent. i'm not forcing god's word on anybody, but i do believe it is a sin. no matter the sin, as long as you repent, god is willing to forgive, you just have to accept him as your lord and savior.
