I do my honest best not to commit acts that God considers an abomination.

“Because of how you act.”


I doubt that you’ve ever seen me “act”.

Strange reply.

I signed and now on to PayPal boycott. I’ve had to do some removal of auto pays. It is going to take me a few days.

“But I will never go back. - EVER!! The damage is done.”

yeah, and that’s Target’s real problem: people are creatures of habit, particularly when it comes to their shopping habits. When shoppers veer out of their comfortable ruts (regardless of reason) and try news stores and/or shopping methods, they frequently find they like the new ways as good as, and often better than, the old ways, and almost never go back to the old ways.

There are simply too many shopping options these days to risk losing long-time customers, because a customer lost is usually a customer lost permanently.

Gay marriage is a choice between consenting adults. You have no option if you are in a Target bathroom. Target sets the rules.

Homosexuality is mental illness. We must not subject our children to the sexual deviants.

Yes, because He makes it quite clear in the bible.

There are far worse sins than mixed bathrooms (actually, mixed bathrooms were never forbidden in the bible). And America has been knee deep in them for decades. Where was all this “righteousness” when God was looking for it?

I think God is very likely to just sneer at America for being squeamish about its bathrooms, because it was AWOL when it counted.

Bravo, a symbolic victory, a scape goat.

What are all you “righteous” people going to do about the gays?

Very good. https://www.afa.net/action-alerts/sign-the-boycott-target-pledge/ I also called Target Guest Relations at 1-800-440-0680 (press 1 for store experience) and expressed the following.

Hello. I understand that the policy of Target is to welcome people to use whichever "restroom or fitting room facility" they feel "corresponds to their gender identity," since "everyone deserves to feel like they belong." However, this is Biblically immoral and means making many women feel like they do not belong because they are uncomfortable with allowing men in their bathroom. Therefore according to your own judgment they and others who disagree with this policy do not belong in your store, and I myself have joined the many others who have decided to the boycott against shopping at Target. And I discourage others from so doing, and encourage them to join the boycott of Target due to its immoral inclusive yet exclusive policy. -------------------

Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners. (1 Timothy 1:15)

Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out... (Acts 3:19)

The Asian (it seems) young lady was very nice, and stated that not everyone who worked at Target agreed with that policy, however she could not give her personal opinion (but the tone was apologetic), but that she would surely pass on my comment, and simply asked for my first and last name, which I do not think is in their system anywa

I’m not utterly unsympathetic here.

I just think, just like Sodom and Gomorrah didn’t have to be allowed to get the point where it attacked Lot’s house in its deranged lust, this is many days late and many dollars short. And no, justice won’t be done by unleashing all your wrath on Target and storming away but otherwise treating everything as normal.

God wants to know, where are your priorities.

The Lord came to save from sin, which everybody has, even those who think they are the best behaved people in the world. Not just to save from uncomfortable bathroom encounters.

And how would you like God to treat you that way?

He supports that and will, for while God is gracious even to impenitent sinners as we should, but God's graciousness such as making the sun to shine on the lost is not the same thing as supposing that God would sanction doing what is evil and harmful to others. The situation here is not that of refusing to accommodate the need of someone to use the rest room, as there are ones for each gender, but the issue is accommodating (and subsidizing) a depraved desire at the expense of the discomfort and possible danger of those with normal and Biblical sensibilities.

To suppose God would sanction that is contrary to His word.

But if a homosexual needed to simply use the bathroom for its purpose and no one else was in it, then a Christian would be gracious to offer it. And after give him a gospel tract or otherwise share the gospel with him.

I was hoping someone would post this but since they have not, I will have to get out my Strongs Concordance and find the chapter and verse in the New Testament. I will have to do it tomorrow as I am just about to turn off the computer and hit the sack.

However the Bible does say clearly that men should not dress as Women and vice versa. They don’t mention Target stores as that is ridiculous. The Bible does not mention Ted Bundy but it does say that you should not murder.

I hope someone gets it before me to save me the trouble as my Strongs Concordance is under several things including a telephone.

Well observed and stated. Target has left us. They are finished. They can dump in empty toilet ares. We will not tolerate perverts with our daughters in the toilet area and we will sue them if they are touched!~!
