You CAN’T be so naive as to think “gay marriage” will not -— DOES not -— legally mandate that ALL boundaries as to who or what may ‘marry’ be permitted to do so. The ONLY “line in the sand’ that was and is legally defensible is “one man + one woman”. The instant that line is erased, no other line can be drawn (legally) that will withstand a court challenge. The first next prohibition to crumble will most likely be polygamy, as supporters of that notion are already gearing up. Thereafter, in some order, incest will go down, age limits will at least radically change, and without a doubt ‘bestiality’ will have to be embraced (in fact, “marrying” inanimate objects - car, vacuum cleaner, etc - are almost guaranteed at some point. “Marriage”, as an institution, will become meaningless. That is simply a legal essential if “1 M + 1 W” is erased.
Again, thank you for the kind words.
I live in the Socialist Wonderland known as Broward County, Florida. Almost every Jew that I know thinks I’m some sort of reject because I have no desire whatsoever to build pyramids for progressivik pharoahs. I stopped attending synagogue around here a long time ago. Almost every rabbi around here is a flaming liberal and they don’t leave it outside the pulpit.
The last time I attended Friday night services, many moons ago, the rabbi started venting against Conservatives and what terrible man Newt Gingrich was and how the impeachment of Bill Caligula was some sort of insult to Judaism, or some other nonsense. I knew that the other synagogues in the area are no better, so I stopped going.
Needless to say, I pray extra hard on Yom Kippur. I really hope God understands.
“What a FREAK SHOW they are!”
I couldn’t agree more.
While we’re on the subject, since when did opposing illegal immigration constitute “hate” ? The term “illegal aliens” doesn’t refer to any ethnic group, it refers to dirt bags who could care less about the sovereignty of the United States. That’s not hate, that’s patriotism.
Illegal aliens are criminals, period. I don’t care if they’re from Mexico, Canada, Israel, or South Africa. Illegal means “wrong” and “against the law” last time I checked.
An author complaining about ‘dreck” (trash) in a Miami Herald article - hilarious.
“Dreck” is the basis of Herald articles.
“I think for now we are not going to see gay marriage in Florida.”
I certainly hope not, but after 2012, who knows ?
“As a very conservative evangelical Christian I will sadly tell you that we are loosing and have mostly lost the young people . Evangelical churches are being infiltrated by the left and their people are becoming totally ignorant as to what is written in the bible . They are evangelical in name only now ... basically cultural evangelical and not much of anything else which means they will not be able to stand for anything soon.”
Very true. See Jim Wallis and his Sojourners cult. The Catholic Church has the same problem with leftist infiltration as well. (the so-called “Nuns on a Bus”)
What people of faith need to do is tackle the problem head on. If your rabbi, priest, or pastor starts spouting off leftist drivel, simply get up and walk out and find another place to worship. I know that’s easier said than done, and I know that the guilt is immense (I struggle with it every day), but I feel it’s the only way to get through to those who are still willing to listen to reason.
God bless,

Actually, if Mrs. Absolutely Nobama never emailed the article to me, this column would never have been written. I haven’t read that leftist rag in years.
Please disregard if I already pinged you.....
As a suggestion, have you considered starting your own synagogue? I’m sure there are others who feel the same way as you do.
I’m nowhere near qualified for that, but it is a pretty good idea.
Hey gang, look what I found:
***
“New York, NY, June 5, 2013 … The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) today welcomed President Obama’s nomination of Samantha Power to serve as U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations.
Barry Curtiss-Lusher, ADL National Chair, and Abraham H. Foxman, ADL National Director, issued the following statement:
‘We are pleased that President Obama has nominated a true champion of human rights who led the effort to make averting genocide and atrocities a core part of American policy to head the U.S. delegation at the United Nations.
As the world is sickened by the images of slaughter in Syria and as Israel faces an ever more volatile Middle East, we are heartened that the U.S. will be represented by an individual whose moral resolve and fierce pragmatism will serve our country well.
As head of President Obama’s multilateral affairs efforts, Samantha engaged in an all-hands-on-deck U.S. campaign against Palestinian unilateral efforts in the U.N. to circumvent peace negotiations. She experienced first-hand the hostility faced by Israel and the abuse of the U.N. bodies to promote anti-Israel bias. As someone who appreciates, to the core of her being, the meaning of international human rights mechanisms, Samantha is clear eyed and understands the injustice of their abuse to target Israel’s legitimacy.’ “

Well isn’t that adorable ? But Sammy likes to say things like this:
***
“Power, nominated Wednesday to replace Susan Rice as the US ambassador to the UN, has been an outspoken advocate of intervention to protect human rights, and in 2002 was asked to apply that stance to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, then in the throes of the second intifada.
‘It may more crucially mean sacrificing or investing I think more than sacrificing literally billions of dollars not in servicing Israeli’s military, but actually in investing in the new state of Palestine,’ Power said during a talk at the University of California-Berkeley. ‘In investing billions of dollars it would probably take also to support I think what will have to be a mammoth a protection force.’ “

Game. Set. Match, Abie-Baby.
You’re quite a firebrand, Sir. I like the way you think, but I always have.
Jews and Christians are the only hope of the world’s recovering freedom.
The scales have long since fallen from our eyes about what the ‘rats have in store for all of us.
Thanks, FRiend!
If only the “professional” Conservative media saw it your way....
:)
You’re a 1000% correct. Western civilization was built on Judeo-Christian values, regardless of what the egg headed liberal professors at Haw-vard and Columbia claim to think.
[smiles]
And a bump!
