Religious Persecution Today: Georgia Governor Will Veto the Anti-Gay Bill

[Basilissa]

Well, we knew this was coming. Jesus told us so:

1 Thessalonians 3:4 For verily, when we were with you, we told you before that we should suffer tribulation; even as it came to pass, and ye know.

Under increasing pressure from major corporations that do business in Georgia, Gov. Nathan Deal announced Monday he will veto a bill that critics say would have curtailed the rights of Georgia's LGBT community. House Bill 757 would have given faith-based organizations in Georgia the option to deny services and jobs to gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people. Supporters said the measure was meant to protect religious freedom, while opponents have described it as "anti-LGBT" and "appalling."

What is appalling about this whole situation, is that now when I go to the Hobby Lobby, I might be in proximity of a gay person. Can gayness/lesbianism be transmitted via air? What if I become infected??

And even if it isn't, I just do not wish to be mixed up with people whom God hates:

Leviticus 20:13 If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.

It is yet another step in destroying religious freedom in America. Just like 50 years ago, when the Big Government took away the rights of organizations to deny services and jobs to non-white folks.

Nevertheless, we should not lose hope. We white people have found a way around the anti-segregation legislature (for example here in Michigan, hotels give brown/black people and people with brown/black names the worst hotel rooms, in the back, stuck between the laundry and furnace room - while they still pay the full price), and I'm sure we will find our way around the prohibition of discrimination against gay people as well.

I do hope so, because segregation of strange people (foreigners, non-whites, gays, Jews, Muslims, etc) is God's way:

Ezra 10:2-3
2 And Shechaniah the son of Jehiel, one of the sons of Elam, answered and said unto Ezra, We have trespassed against our God, and have taken strange wives of the people of the land: yet now there is hope in Israel concerning this thing.
3 Now therefore let us make a covenant with our God to put away all the wives, and such as are born of them, according to the counsel of my lord, and of those that tremble at the commandment of our God; and let it be done according to the law.

I believe you answered your question with this very piece of scripture, Sister. Clearly it can be transmitted by touch, as the act of lying with involves physical contact. This means it may even be possible to contact gayness from a toilet seat upon which a homer has sat on. It could possibly even be transmitted through currency exchange when the homer cashier hands you your change or returns your credit card. Even your check at a restaurant or your sales receipt might be tainted by a demon of anal lust.


Fortunately, the Bible also provides a means of thwarting this evil.


Psalm 51:7 Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.

There you have it. Carry a spray bottle of Hyssop oil as a spiritual disinfectant. Whenever you come into contact with gayness, suspected gayness, Negroes, Democrats, Hispanoliacs, Retards, Emus, or any other unwholesome thing, give it and yourself a generous spritzing. I've personally used this method for years, and have not once been smitten with an overwhelming desire to plunge my unmentionable into the tender backside of a sobbing Asian girl while pulling her hair braids like reins and biting her about the nape of her neck. Not once I tell you!

Well, that's awfully concerning, isn't it? We know the Gay Agenda infiltrates businesses, schools, retail, media, commerce, politics, and most blatantly in entertainment. When SCOTUS ruled in favor of Hobby Lobby's First Amendment Right to reject federal law insofar as it makes them feel icky deep in the soul, in a genuine way mind you (to avoid corruption), we should have been encouraged to know our government is protecting our freedom to discriminate based on religious beliefs (so long as they're sincere, of course). They didn't go quite far enough, they failed to specify which religious beliefs count. The justices could have issued a sweeping decision fortifying every person’s right to run their lives and their companies according to the dictates of their conscience, so long as their consciences don't go against the Lord thy God. When one's conscience aligns them to the physical, emotional, and mental needs of humanity, one is using their conscience wrong. No good can come of it.

Because that's what's really important here. That's what really matters. Going up against the Lord thy God isn't like going up against a 350 pound linebacker. Jesus won't just block the state of Georgia from procuring a touchdown, He'll block them from procuring a bountiful peach harvest, a malaria or zika free summer, and even guaranteed autism free children (2 Chronicles 7:14).

What frightens me is the rapidity with which people reject the emotional well being of Jesus in favor of the immediate but temporal, and therefore temporary needs of the people who are living and breathing and suffering right now. Rather than attend to the needs of citizens with respect to preventing future homelessness, crime, and general economic and emotional drain on those who can and do help, rather than focusing on the so-called "dignity" of the individual, the state of Georgia ought to come together to attend to the desires of Jesus - to be worshiped and obeyed, unconditionally (Deuteronomy 6:5). Otherwise, there will be Hell to pay. Literally.

O Come Lord Jesus!
