Support for same-sex marriage in the United States is at an all-time high of 60 percent, a new poll showed Tuesday as the Supreme Court gears up to weigh in on the issue.

The rate of support rose five percent from last year, and is at its highest since surveys began to address the matter in 1996, pollsters Gallup said in a statement

Don’t believe it for a second.

There hasn’t been one state that the voters passed a referendum or amendment in support of same sex crapola.

Polls are a bunch of malarkey. They never reveal their underlying data, so for all I know they are like the main stream media feeding the unknowing with more BS.

Did they poll David Kirby and everyone else like him?

Didn’t think so, never mind.

We are still supposed to be in denial and lie about this sort of thing to make the mentally ill feel good about themselves instead of facing the cold hard facts, otherwise known to the rest of us as “reality.”

Dear RC-

I am re-posting a comment I made yesterday to a thread entitled “VATICAN BIG GOES HARD AGAINST U.S. TEA PARTY CLIMATE SKEPTICS.” I believe that it is pertinent here also.

To: Norm Lenhart

Get real. The stories of Sod n’ Gom and Noah are just allegories. Allegories for what?

Just hate speech is all. /sarc

If you’re at all interested in Catholic prophecy, may I suggest the Hollywood movie, “The Miracle of Our Lady of Fatima.”(1952)

It’s a movie, so it takes some liberties with an event which occurred in 1917 in Portugal during WW I. A public miracle associated with it was reported in major newspapers, including the New York Times.

The movie does portray the Miracle, which, as I said, was a public event witnessed by all in about a 20 mile radius of Fatima. This included skeptical and unbelieving reporters, who were there because the miracle was predicted in advance.

This does NOT prophesy the major Apocalypse of the end of time.

More recently, Pope Benedict beatified an Italian nun who died in 1961 who had prophecies of a chastisement to come soon. The story is here:

http://unveilingtheapocalypse.blogspot.com/2012/04/prophecies-of-blessed-elena-aiello.html

Some of the quotes from the Blessed Virgin Mary gave to this Italian, Sister Aiello:

“People are offending God too much. Were I to show you all the sins committed on a single day, you would surely die of grief. These are grave times.

The world is thoroughly upset because it is in a worse condition than at the time of the deluge. Materialism marches on ever fomenting bloody strifes and fratricidal struggles.

Clear signs portend that peace is in danger. That scourge, like the shadow of a dark cloud, is now moving across mankind:

Only my power, as Mother of God, is preventing the outbreak of the storm. All is hanging on a slender thread. When that thread shall snap, Divine Justice shall pounce upon the world and execute its dreadful, purging designs. All the nations shall be punished because sins, like a muddy river, are now covering all the earth.

‘CLOUDS WITH LIGHTNING FLASHES OF FIRE IN THE SKY AND A TEMPEST OF FIRE SHALL FALL UPON THE WORLD. THIS TERRIBLE SCOURGE, NEVER BEFORE SEEN IN THE HISTORY OF HUMANITY, WILL LAST SEVENTY HOURS. GODLESS PERSONS WILL BE CRUSHED AND WIPED OUT. MANY WILL BE LOST BECAUSE THEY REMAIN IN THEIR OBSTINACY OF SIN. THEN SHALL BE SEEN THE POWER OF LIGHT OVER THE POWER OF DARKNESS’. ‘Be not silent, my daughter, because the hours of darkness, of abandonment, are near.

Father Albert Hebert also wrote a book, “The Three Days of Darkness”, that includes prophecies from various saints over the centuries that allude to our time.

Finally I’ll leave you with the prophecy of Sister Jeanne le Royer (d. 1798):

Woe ! Woe ! Woe to the last century !

Here is what God wanted to show me in his Light. I began looking in the light of God, the century which must begin in 1800; I saw by this light that judgment wasn’t there, and that it wouldn’t be the last century. I considered, thanks to the same light, the century of 1900, until the end, to see positively if it would be the last. Our Lord made me know, and at the same time made me doubt, if it would be at the end of the century of 1900, or in that of 2000. But what I saw, it is that if the judgment arrived in the century of 1900, it would come only towards the end, and that if the world exceeds this century, the first two decades of the century of 2000 will not pass without the judgment intervening, as I saw it in the light of God.”

For what it may be worth to you ... and if you’re not Catholic, it may not be worth much at all; I understand.

Perhaps many might agree on this at least, that because of the long-running scourge of abortion and the more recent and ever-growing insanity of homosexual marriage, SOMETHING has got to give, and soon.

I agree. This has been so propagandized, I think every show I watched on TV this season had a gay marriage or gay kiss to further push the issue. We can call BS, but there is a sea change happening. Primarily because there is no counterargument being presented. ‘I believe in traditional marriage’ is not a counterargument, but merely as place-marker. The case needs to be made why this debate is wrongly defined and state the difference between a state authored certificate and marriage.

That's not true anymore. In 2012, Washington, Maryland and Maine each passed ballot initiatives that legalized same-sex marriage. The same year, Minnesota voters rejected an amendment that would have prohibited same-sex marriage.

Propaganda works.

This is my thinking. We never should have let that board which reviewed movies and tv shows disappear. There ought to be a board that prohibits entertainment companies from producing any sort of gay normalizing program, such as "Glee", or "Modern Family."

In the meantime, I would just like to take a big bite out of their revenue by repealing the Hollywood tax cuts which were enacted in the 1950s to promote the industry. In my opinion they make too much money anyway.

The Left routinely uses false poll results to influence people and organizations.

This poll is probably floated to influence the pending Supreme Court decision.

If 60% of the population supports homosexual marriage, why does it lose whenever it is on a ballot?

The movie "Silence of the Lambs" outraged gay activists in Hollywood. They threw a conniption fit and demanded to have veto power over any such future negative portrayals of homosexuals. Now, not only does everything which Hollywood produces go through a gay censor, they have deliberately put a bunch of gay advocates into their industry as writers and producers.

They aren't going to show an accurate picture of gaydom. They are only going to show things which don't offend or outrage normal people. This is how they have been moving public opinion, and until we can find some way to get alternate programs out there which portray homosexuals as child molesting disease ridden psychotics, then the public is going to continue to regard them as acceptable.

And The Great Liar controls them.

It's not about 'gay marriage' or equal rights. It is destruction of Christianity. Period.
