For me, the crux of this issue is not gay marriage. I do not like gay bashing. Any gay person is someone’s son or daughter and is a child of God. The bashing that goes on gives the other side ample justification for calling us haters. Expressing a view as Mr. Cathy did was not gay bashing and Christians should follow that example.

That being said, the Chick-Fil-A phenomenon is the tip of the iceberg. What’s underneath is a huge mass of anger and frustration at liberals who circumvent the will of the people by judicial activism and executive fiat.

This has been going on for decades. Look at all the referendums in various states that are overturned by courts; at Florida 2000; Kelo; Obamacare; TARP; Porkulus; Frank/Dodd and subprime mortgages; out of control spending; lack of border controls; on and on.

We go to the ballot box with the hope and trust that we live in a representative Republic, yet every time we turn around, we are met with the tyranny of the minority.

These are the issues we should carry into November because they are the winning issues at the top of voters’ concerns.

Post of the day Randita, thank you, Copy Paste it and start a thread w/ it. with a title....

On another thread, I posted this suggestion about how to answer kids' questions about homosexuals.

"There are some people who are mentally ill with same sex affection disorder. We call them homosexuals. Most of them are not bad people, just a little sick. But some are dangerous, so never let one get you alone.

We shouldn't hate them, but we have to be aware of them. That house with the rainbow flag is a house to avoid. It is not right to harrass them or beat them up, but don't let them get too close either. You can be their friend, but not too close a friend.

It is OK to let them know that God loves them, and that we will pray for them to be cured of their illness. Then we should include them in our prayers. Any questions?"

Of course, to liberals, any mention of God is hate speech...

Homosexual, because there's nothing GAY about it!
