7 of the 9 Justices on the US Supreme Court (which struck down sodomy laws this year) were appointed by Republican presidents; 5 of the 7 members of the Massachusetts Supreme Court were appointed by Republican Governors.

This just points out the importance of We The People becoming more involved in the national debates, asserting our sovereignty as the true 'rulers' of this Republic. The judges who create law from the bench should be impeached and removed, and that is a function of our legislatures who should be acting according to our expressed demands on them and the control over the activist judiciary. It would not take too many impeachements and removals to stop this malignant activism from the leftist societal engineering benches. To journey along this road, fewer seated leftist, socialist, democrat leaders will have to be accomplished ... through the voting process. One need only read up on the Florida Representative, Alcee Hastings, to see why the number of democrtas must be reduced in order to bring the activist judiciary under control!

Kind of like "back to Africa", eh?

If it is your goal to link homosexuals with blacks, you should take that up with the black community. As for me, until they find a way to identify whether a corpse was gay or straight, I'll continue to see homosexuality as a behavior.

Nobody has any more right to be gay than to be homophobic.

Shalom.

Then again, I think your idea has a lot of merit. We could, for example, take all those who think religion should rule the nation and pay their expenses to move to Iran.

They might be happy that way, since you are mostly talking about Muslims. There are few if any Christians who think that.

There are Christians whose worldview is colored by their faith, but they still believe that what they believe is true and obvious to anyone who can reason.

Shalom.

I guess it's just that the few who do spend a huge amount of their time posting on FR.

Feel free to find a post where Christians are trying to install religion into U.S. law. They are trying to maintain prohibitions against homosexual sex, but these are for pragmatic reasons. They will cite the Bible for other Christians, but the pragmatic reasons to keep homosexual behavior illegal are well documented here. (Note, not to make it illegal but to keep it illegal.)

It's the pro-gays who are writing laws to force you to accept their beliefs, not the Christians.

Shalom.

Dude, please read the posts you respond to.

Christians aren't trying to make homosexual behavior illegal, they are trying to keep it illegal. It's the queers who are trying to change the law. As I pointed out in the post to which you replied, Christians do quote the Bible to other believers, but you don't have to look far to see the scientific and medical reasons for keeping homosexuality illegal posted by Christians on this board.

Just because Biblical values happen to line up with reality doesn't mean that attempting to legislate reality is an effort to create a theocracy.

Shalom.

You seem to be a firm believer in the bedroom police.

Nice strawman. Homosexuality was illegal in nearly every state of the Union for most of our country's history and we never had a bedroom police. Bedroom police is a bogeyman created by people who've run out of arguments.

Since you seem to prefer regurgitating rubbish rather than thinking about the subject, think about this.

If homosexuality is only about what people do in private, why does it keep getting on the news?

In the future, engage your brain before posting on FR.

Shalom.
