counter to god's law

Calling homosexuality immoral, general draws chants of 'Thou Shalt Not Kill'
Protesters shouting "Thou Shalt Not Kill!" disrupted a congressional hearing Wednesday after the top US military officer defended his view that homosexuality is immoral.
The confrontation began when Senator Tom Harkin, a Democrat, chided General Peter Pace for his "very hurtful remarks" in May that it was wrong to "condone immoral acts" by allowing gays to serve openly in the military.
Pace, who steps down next week as chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, responded that he supported the military's "don't ask, don't tell" policy on gays in the military because it allowed homosexuals to serve their country.
"And we need to be very precise then, about what I said wearing my stars and being very conscious of it," the general said.
"And that is, very simply, that we should respect those who want to serve the nation but not through the law of the land, condone activity that, in my upbringing, is counter to God's law," he said.
Anti-war protesters then started shouting, but Pace went on to say his responsibility was "to obey the law of the land and to object if something is either illegal or immoral.".........
