Remember Sodom, consider Gomorrah. Many will rue the day they supported this perversion of the Creators design of marriage. Ain’t gonna be pretty...

The 'Progressives' who push for the acceptance of Sodomite 'marriages' fail to understand that they are pushing people that are trapped in a sinful lifestyle to continue therein and to march into an eternity in hell. I suspect these 'Progressives' will find themselves in a hotter part of hell than the Sodomites - because at least you can understand that the Sodomites are driven by a perverted addiction, and find it difficult to break free. And without the recognition that it is sin - they will never break free. The 'Progressives' don't suffer from this addiction, yet they push for it because they crave the praise of the world (and Satan).

Marching through life pretending that there is no God - and that He has not told us what is good - is a march that that ends in final disaster.

Psalm 9:17 The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.

Agreed the US will soon be there after the SCOTUS ruling next month-—most US states are already there.

Did Henry VIII blow up the Catholic Church in England? Well, not so sure I agree. Henry VIII was seeking his FIRST divorce from Catherine of Aragon at the time of England’s split with the Church. Problem for Henry was more dynastic than anything else. Queen Catherine could not produce any surviving sons. Only a daughter survived childhood. The King sought a divorce after the Queen could no longer produce children. Under most circumstances, the Vatican would have simply granted the request. But, alas, politics entered the mix. The Pope at the time was a virtual prisoner of the Holy Roman Emperor, who was also the nephew of Queen Catherine. The Pope refused to grant Henry VIII his annulment, and the King decided to make himself head of the Church in England. This was all coinciding with the Reformation in Europe and the rise of Protestantism all throughout Europe at that time.

I do think political and dynastic considerations more than anything else were responsible for England leaving the Catholic Church.

Will there be another schism in the Church because of the current Pope’s decidedly liberal policies and positions? I tend to doubt it, largely due to the Pope’s advanced age. Hopefully, he will follow in Pope Benedict XVI’s path and retire well before he departs permanently from this earth.

Hungary would never allow it. Nor would Poland

I wouldn’t bet the ranch on it.

Ireland was thought to be a deeply religious, overwhelmingly Catholic, socially conservative country.

I don’t think Ireland has been “conservative” for many years.

I am surprised that it wasn’t already the case in Germany, or maybe I got Germany mixed up with The Netherlands?

But you are right about Muslims, in a caliphate they don’t tolerate whiners like a lot of the activists are. Whining is a death wish.

I believe a number of Catholic leaders have said that people of Irish descent are more religious than the Irish themselves, sad thing is, it looks like they’re correct.

The famine, the drought, and the worldwide plagues will scourge the Earth, it’s time to make sure faith is strong above all else.

The only good thing I see about a Muslim takeover of Europe and Elsewhere is the fact that a lot of people who desperately need to have their heads cut off, will get them cut off.

Islam doesn't tolerate the sort of troublemakers that Christianity puts up with.
