Re: CaliFAGnia Legalizes Gay Marriage

Of course, I think this is a great step forward for civil rights in my home state, California. However, I can tell you with certainty that gay marriage has already long been an aspect of life here. As a Unitarian minister, I have happily presided over many marriages between committed gay couples.

While public recognition of marriage, and the many legal rights that attend that recognition, are important, the truth about marriage is that the state, whatever it's view, really has no say in whether two persons are married in the most important sense of that term. That's solely a matter between them and God. So, before you Landoverites launch into paroxysms of righteous indignation (not to mention issuing tsunami warnings, or maybe even praying to steer a hurricane toward San Francisco, a la Pat Robertson), I suggest you consider the case of the love that King David and Jonathan felt for each other:

I am distressed for you, my brother Jonathan; You have been very pleasant to me; Your love to me was wonderful, Surpassing the love of women.

That, and not a piece of paper signed by a judge, is what marriage is really about.

Same-sex Marriage allowed in California

California Supreme Court overturns ban over gay marriage. Some of you may believe that I would be for same-sex marriage, however, marriage is defined as the santity of a man and a woman. I am not targeting homosexuals and I believe that they deserve every right that any other man or woman has. There should something "else" that can accomodate gays so they have equal opportunities to the rights of non-homosexuals.

What's your opinion?

That is not a quote from the REAL Bible, since the second book of Samuel only has 24 chapters, get your facts straight, Fagnister...

My opinion is that according to the KJV Bible, if you are a sodomite, you are going to Hell, and the purpose of marriage is producing little Soldiers for Jesus (and the occasional girl to do the dishes, and serve as baby oven) which of course cannot be achieved by dirty man-on-man or woman-on-woman action, so CaliFAGnia is disobeying God, and will certainly be punished, when He considers it convenient...

Re: CaliFAGnia Legalizes Gay Marriage

What's everybody complaining about? These judges just handed us the presidency.

Now all we have to do is convince the voters that Barack Obama is from California. We've already convinced them that he's both a muslim and a pastor at a very black church. I can just see the attack ads now: "As muslim pastor of a very black church in California, Obama marries gay people!"

We just wait a few months and hello President John McSame.

Re: CaliFAGnia Legalizes Gay Marriage

In this country, women DO get to choose whether or not they wish to marry. You cannot legally force a woman to marry if she doesn't wish to.

Your liberal bias is what is interfering with your ability to see the whole issue. Gross generalizations are also difficult to prove. There is a dichotomy between the two statements that you have made. The first statement is false. Just read the stories on google. You, of all people, should know the difference between legality and reality.

That you're a wishy-washy liberal who wants it both ways. Guess what, missy: God doesn't want you to meet Him halfway:

Rev. 3:15-16: I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.

You're headed for a celestial barf bag and then the lake of fire unless you repent.

Why you filthy bucket of bile! How dare you take glee in watching millions of sodomites walk a sure path to eternal damnation!? And where exactly in the Holy Bible does it say queers should be treated like normal people?

Did you know that God not only condemns homersexurals in the Bible, but He also condemns people like you right along with them! That's right! Homers (those "without natural affection") and their supporters (those "that have pleasure in them") are "worthy of death." Romans 1:31-32

Romans 1:31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: 1:32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

By offering aid and comfort to the radical queers, you are ensuring that you'll join them in the lake of fire. Are you happy now?

Read my statement again.
In THIS country (USA), women cannot LEGALLY be forced to marry against their will. Nor can men or children for that matter.

Forcing a 14-year-old girl to marry, even if your religion says it's ok, is NOT legal.

Forced marriages are legal in some other countries, and that's apaprently one of the issues the UN is working to change. The sooner the better.

Yes, I know that this country has in many ways committed apostasy against God's will. That doesn't mean that we need to continue doing so.

Just because a bunch of lie-beral blue-state legislators or the third-world America-haters at the UN say that something is right or wrong, that doesn't make it right or wrong. Yes, Christians have to obey secular law, but we also have the duty to keep it from sliding further into the abyss, and when that blessed day comes when we retake the government, we will set it all right. Praise Jesus!

Which is exactly why so many of us are working tirelessly to re-re-elect George W. Bush to President-for-life. Once we scrap the Constitution and establish the Holy KJV1611 Bible as the law of the land, Jesus will be pleased.

Re-read your stupid post, lame brain. You made a blanket statement that is patently false, and I responded with a host of sites via google to refute your statement. You are just too stupid to realize, and you use the atheist's fall back method of discounting an argument and re-stating your initial opinion to match your intended idea. Don't think that we don't see it.
