    • 1977 August 27, Louie Crew, “Cruel Invective”, in Gay Community News, volume 5, number 8, page 4:
      The invective heaped upon Charles Shively for his burning of the egregious Levitical text [i.e. Leviticus 18:22] is cruel and misdirected. Christianity is indeed the enemy when it countenances the abuse of any of God's children, and we who worship a living and loving Christ ought to be joining, not obstructing, Charlies efforts to expose the hate that has been established in Christ's name.
