Ultra-Rich Gay Activist On Targeting Christians: It’s Time To ‘Punish The Wicked’
The Federalist ^ | 7/19/17 | Bre Payton

Posted on 07/19/2017 7:25:12 PM PDT by marshmallow

In a recent interview with Rolling Stone magazine, tech millionaire turned LGBTQ activist Tim Gill said he’s aiming to punish Christians who don’t want to participate in same-sex weddings.

For more than two decades, the software programmer has poured an estimated $422 million into various gay rights causes. After the Supreme Court ruled gay marriage legal in all 50 states in 2015, Gill turned his attention and resources to targeting Christians.

The election of Donald Trump, who claims to support gay rights but stocked his administration with anti-LGBTQ extremists, has only emboldened those looking to erase the gains of the past decade. Gill refuses to go on the defense. ‘We’re going into the hardest states in the country,’ he says. ‘We’re going to punish the wicked.’

Allow me to add some context. After the Obergefell ruling in 2015, which forced all 50 states to perform same-sex marriages, several state legislatures passed protections to ensure that those who object to participating in a same-sex wedding for religious reasons have recourse when hauled into courts or extralegal commissions for this belief. It’s these state laws that Gill and his various nonprofit entities have decided to go after — and persecute Christians along the way.

Here’s how Rolling Stone — a magazine with a history of throwing journalistic ethics and pesky things like truth and accuracy out the window to advance a narrative that fits their agenda — describes religious freedom restoration acts (RFRA): “Under the guise of right-to-worship protections, these bills offer legal cover for individuals and businesses to deny service or otherwise discriminate against LGBTQ people,” Rolling Stone‘s Andy Kroll wrote.

“On the inside they are consumed with guilt and shame. Lashing out is their defense mechanism”

I think you are right.

In a normal world you would think that’s father and son. But we don’t live in a normal world.

You’re welcome. I’ve gained a greater appreciation for her. She tried to warn us what direction our culture was going in and sadly we(meaning our society as a whole) just did not listen.

If you’re interested, here’s an article about her from 2011:

The price of freedom is eternal vigilance. If we do not fight back, we are guaranteed to lose.

“But we don’t live in a normal world.”

Nope. It’s been on a downhill slope for about 40 years,the last 10 being a rapid plummet into the abyss.

Gill needs to be punished with a few class-action suits.

Considering that the Courts will usually rule against the richer plaintive, this fool looks like an easy target assuming someone wanted to go up against him.

I am guessing he and his lawyers are not that stupid.

He will just continue the strategy that the Gay Mafia has used so successfully so far.

They will send in planted Gay couples to bate Christian businesses in to saying something that they can use to sue them in to bankruptcy.

Gill’s name will never come up or appear anywhere in court documents. He will simply be the money behind the lawyers.

Catechism of the Catholic Church

2357 Homosexuality refers to relations between men or between women who experience an exclusive or predominant sexual attraction toward persons of the same sex. It has taken a great variety of forms through the centuries and in different cultures. Its psychological genesis remains largely unexplained. Basing itself on Sacred Scripture, which presents homosexual acts as acts of grave depravity, tradition has always declared that "homosexual acts are intrinsically disordered." They are contrary to the natural law. They close the sexual act to the gift of life. They do not proceed from a genuine affective and sexual complementarity. Under no circumstances can they be approved.

They ‘pull sin as with a cartrope’

These are the biblical definition of ‘reprobate minds’ at work,

“Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!” Isaiah 5:20

This is not a battle against flesh and blood, this is a powerful evil spirit at work on this Earth, one that Satan gives great power and authority to corrupt and destroy,

Only believers have the true authority to bring that demonic stronghold down and bind and rebuke it as we’re shown in Matthew Chapter 18,

[[Tim Gill said he’s aiming to punish Christians who don’t want to participate in same-sex weddings.]]

Hmmm- shall Christians punish gay people for not asking forgiveness for their sin of homosexuality?

It starts with rebellion against God, and refusal to acknowledge Him as the Creator.

Romans 1:

21 For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22 Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools 23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like a mortal human being and birds and animals and reptiles.

24 Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. 25 They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen.

26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones. 27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another.
