Supreme Court rules for gay marriage
Reuters ^ | 6/26/2015 | Staff

WASHINGTON - The Supreme Court ruled that the Constitution provides same-sex couples the right to marry in a historic triumph for gay rights.

-snip-

Justice Anthony Kennedy, writing on behalf of the court, said that the hope of gay people intending to marry "is not to be condemned to live in loneliness, excluded from one of civilization's oldest institutions. They ask for equal dignity in the eyes of the law. The Constitution grants them that right."

So now any pastor or priest who will not perform a gay marriage is a criminal. I expect that we’ll hear that any such church will lose tax-exempt status, to bring them in line without jailing anyone yet.

While some churches have, or claim to have, prophets, very few have profits. Most churches should have expenses equal to or greater than their income. Virtually everything they spend their money on is or should be deductible (at least until the Gaystapo re-writes the Internal Revenue Code), thus they would not have a TAXABLE income. Some churches may even be able to apply for special government freebies that they could not do as an exempt organization. When life gives you lemons make lemonade.

Situations where the letter of the law matters:

- If you are white
- If you are male (or a female who denies feminist teaching)
- If you are straight
- If you do not believe global warming is an issue
- If you have enough money to be ok

Situations where the letter of the law does not matter:

- If you are black, hispanic or some other racial minority
- If you are female (and a feminist)
- If you are gay
- If you believe in global warming
- If you have enough money to buy power/decisions in your favor

This is not a complete list but they are clearly true.

It is disgraceful. Too many false flags and distractions have been hitting too quickly for it all to be random and coincidental. America has been getting a beat down from this administration and this was the death blow.

The war on the Constitution continues. We the people, need to strongly define this as a war by this country’s elites, progressives, liberals, then let the tribunals begin.

I am guessing public sex.
Man/boy love.
They need the high of “pushing” social norms.
This isn’t about “homo marriage” Its about control, money and power.
Work might be one of few safe havens from the weirdness that is to come. At least they can make “rules” that there is no PDA or same sex sexual harrassment and so on.

Will the government begin to monitor us in our own homes?
Sounds crazy but float homo marriage to someone in 1980 and see how crazy it would have sounded.

This is the beginning of the slide to S and G.

That slide began a long time ago.

Can Texas stand against this?

They recently passed laws about this, but perhaps not at the Supreme Court level.

This will happen within the year. They’re winning big so they’re not going to let up.

Its not a war on the constitution. Its a war against God. Its way bigger than just our constitution. Just my opinion.

The only advantage America has over any other country is fairly good wages and gun rights. Nothing more. If anyone cites our history and our founding as making us exceptional, that actually is to our shame. Not since the Nation of Israel has a nation squandered so much.

Ok, you devils .... You’ve got your gay marriage now. Are you happy? Go ahead ... Enjoy rotting in your little slimy cesspool for eternity.

Pray I never have to go anywhere near that stink.

And stay away from my kids!!

How many preachers will say “The Bible says to obey the laws of the land.” This is the beginning of the slide to S and G.

As prophesied for these end times -
The sheep will be separated from the goats, and the wheat from the chaff. Until now, the wheat and the weeds have been allowed to grow up together so the tender young shoots of the wheat did not get harmed. Now, the weeds are about to be gathered together for the coming fire, while the wheat will be stored safely in the barn.

Be no part of their evil world. "He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still." - Revelation 22:11

Headline should read FAG marriage.

Meanwhile, the government is concerned they need a missile shield around DC to protect against a cruise missile attack from Ruskie land. Why would the Ruskies take out their local fifth column against the country already in place here? In fact, Oturd and the robed 9 have done more damage to this society then has been wrought by any foreign power.

Only non confrontational way to fix this now is an Article V.
