What are you going to do about it now?
More than half the people on this thread are in a foaming-at-the-mouth panic over the thought of giving weight to the institution of marriage and reinforcing consequences for violating the pact.
Liberals may have put all of this into motion, but we were sooooo willing to go along. And this very thread proves that we still are.
NOBODY here has the right to say one cross word about gay marriage or lament the degradation of the sacrament unless they’re willing to give weight to the promises made.
As long as we’re happy to have our easy-outs, then we have nothing to defend.
Very few of us have the fortitude to hold the line.
Actually, I have a right to say anything I want unless Mr. Jim or a mod steps in and admonishes me, OK? And who, exactly, is foaming at the mouth? People who disagree with “your friend”?
How were we “willing to go along”? As Goering once said, “it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy or a fascist dictatorship or a Parliament or a Communist dictatorship”—and before you shoot the messenger, God puts the greatest onus on the leaders: “O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths” (Isaiah 3:12). So when it comes to Goering or the liberals in the federal government, they both employed and employ that principle, knowing that they possess the power either way.
And what’s your solution?
Smack-dab BINGO!
IMO, the same way others on this board get into a frothy panic when the thought of killing SS/Medicare/etc. come up.
You know, the same group that screams “Hands off *my* XYZ”...pay no mind to the Constitution.
Instead of rising up to cut off the head of Liberal/Socialism; We the People contently let their own greed and social standing (aka EMOTIONS) take over.
