Letter Twenty One, December 15, 1995
Priscilla's Youngest Daughter is Peeved
December 15, 1995
Dear Wes:
We just received your Christmas letter which I know you know we would find offensive. I am -sure you were hoping one of my children would pick up the mail.
It's too bad feel this need to keep pushing your homosexual life in my families' faces. In case you were doing it because you believe it will somehow change my mind -- you are wrong! This has done nothing but make me feel more distant from you, and realize that you do not respect anyone else's opinion if it differs from yours. Most people who respect others, although do not have the same opinion, do not do this.
Why do you keep sending letters, materials, etc., that you know others do not want? Is it only Wesley and his beliefs that matter? Although I have strong beliefs that homosexuality is unnatural, unhealthy, and destructive I would not keep trying to push it on you, that only causes hurt and dissension. When people can have open communication about differing beliefs that's great -- but it is quite another when it is a personal agenda that comes in the form of a Christmas letter.
The part of your letter that shows me that you will use unkind tactics to promote your homosexual life is your reference to this summer and the "Priscilla Letters". It seems to me a person who sincerely apologizes for his actions (as you told our pastor that you did) would not try to cause further discord. Your homosexual cause has once again become your number one priority, too bad!! I am in total disbelief that you would want to keep on trying to cause our family problems. I wish you could see things from another perspective other than just your own. Please for everyone else's sake keep your homosexual life and innuendoes about Tom for those who want to hear about them. I know mom, Brad and dad all let you know that they do not wish to receive your letters, so why do you keep on sending them? It should tell you something about yourself. If you will reflect upon what you have been doing you will find that your behavior has been self-centered. Is your relationship with Tom your way or no way too? If not, then allow us the same courtesy.
I want to let you know that I was honestly very torn about my decision not to attend Susan's get together. I know now it was the right decision. Behavior that I find inappropriate you have found appropriate enough by displaying it on your Christmas letter leaving no choice but for others to see it. This validates my concern that you and Tom being together as a couple is a relationship that I do not care to witness and more importantly expose my children to. (Please remember this was one of the original concerns for the Uncles' Party and your response then was that you knew how to act appropriately). As long as your letters are filled with propaganda, I feel you have left me with no choice other than to ask you to quit writing. Please take my family off of your Christmas letter list. I am truly saddened by this.
Sincerely,
Buffy
