Read the case of the first gay Episcopal priest.

He gets married and has kids. Not happy
Gets divorce
Mates with a gay Not happy so gets married
Comes out as a gay. Still no happiness.
Tries to fight to keep priest slot Still not happy

Many churches divided over this and leave the Episcopal groups.

He is successfull church splitter

Gene councils gay catholics. Not to repent but to start feeling good. Still no happiness.
Gene Robinson resorts to booze and drugs. He is still in pain.

Gays don't want to surrender.

Legalizing marriage for them will solve zero problems for them They are deluded as it says in Romans 1.

The next step after gay marrige is for gays to get pastors punished for calling it sin. And they still won't be happy.

Jesus is the answer. Gay marriage is not the answer.

We are allowing liberty. You are trying to force your views on the people.

Gays want to use courts to dictate and force their agenda.
People are not that stupid.

You'll get no argument from me on that one.



That devil isn't fighting DOMA. He could care less. He's seen empires rise and fall. Our politics are just a way he entertains himself. Now... yes, Satan would like to persecute preachers that preach and hold to the truth. But instead of being cowards and trying to use GOVERNMENT to curtail the rights of private citizens... I say grant them liberty... and all the radicals to bring it on. When churches and pastors that communities know and revere are under assult for simply living what they believe... then it will be the gay radicals that look like fascists. They will loose traction in the public spot light. Their position will become a political liability. The Gospel will be news at eleven. Stories of good men being sued and in court over their religious beliefs will be news at eleven. It will work to our favor. The church always prospers under social tension.



Coadie, this is the NT. God is out to save all sinners. All sinners. There is only one unforgiveable sin.

Apparently he doesn't reign in your eyes if DOMA falls. What you said above indicates that if DOMA falls, Satan wins. lol



LIBERTY Coadie. Liberty. GOVERNMENT isn't the answer to this problem. In fact, GOVERNMENT is part of the problem.



But they won't realize that marriage isn't the answer until they've tried it and it's found hollow. Give it to them, the majority will realize "marriage" doesn't change the way they feel inside.



Yes Coadie... the "people" wanted to use the POLICE POWER OF GOVERNMENT to control the private choices of other Americans. That's the point. That's a clear example of abusing the power of GOVERNMENT. We're becoming GOVERNMENT worshipers.



No one is saying it will. But sin has to run it's course to break the spirit of the sinner. We're blocking the process. Let them go and find out that marriage will not deliver from bondage and pain. Allow them have expended all efforts accept to turn to Jesus.

The answer isn't a GOVERNMENT that regulates our private lives and choices. In my opinion... Satan isn't so much for the gay agenda.... he simply hopes it terrifies us enough to empower GOVERNMENT to the point that he can try to destroy everyone.

We have the GOVERNMENT increasingly using x-ray vans around cities taking note and inventory of us, our families, our homes, our churches, and our businesses. And you want to give them MORE power over the private choices citizens make? You're loosing your mind.

You're playing into the lie that the GOVERNMENT is the answer and that GOVERNMENT can solve our social problems. Our Founders wanted LIBERTY. And we need to take a stand for LIBERTY... even if men use that liberty to commit sin. At that point, the GOSPEL not the GOVERNMENT is the answer.
