If there is a right to sanctuary cities: ie; cities that can disregard the immigration laws then why not sanctuary states: ie; states that can ignore the marriage laws or any other damn federal law for that matter? WTG SCOTUS you bunch of ___________________!

Unfortunately the State is like a stalker ex-husband who simply will not let the Church go in peace.

Why not transfer marriages into ‘covenant’ marriages?

Much more difficult to get a divorce and divorce can only happen for a few specific reasons.

Strengthen marriage. Require premarital counseling. Criminalize infidelity. End no-fault divorce. Make married couples, once again, have responsibilities and consequences for their actions.

The ones who are ‘playing’ with the institution won’t want in on that.

Give me a break. The “Barque of Peter” whose voters overwhelmingly, consistently, vote Democrat, is a big reason why we’re here in the first place.

Good luck with that, Joseph, my brother. The American state as we know it has all the equanimity about getting broken off from the relationship that Alex Forrest did in “Fatal Attraction”:

“I’m not gonna be ignored, Dan!”

We’re in for some very unpleasant times.

It remains to be seen whether America’s shepherds will have the courage to separate themselves and their sheep from the wolves of our contemporary hedonism.


John 10
13 The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep. 14 I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.

A hireling is some one who depends on his preaching as his financial means.

As long as Clergy is used for an occupation it will continue to get worse regardless of denomination.

It may not be easy but many Preachers hold down a job and at the same time preach the Gospel.

Revelation 18
4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.

If they are Gods people where would they be except some where supposedly approved by God but must not be.
