As a nation, we have exhibited such courage in the past by rejecting the use of religion to sanction slavery and the subjugation of women," Gold said

And being queer is the same as slavery or the subjugation of women?

I'm not buying it.

Speaking of a call to authentically Biblical courage. . .

well, really, I thought gay people were despicable when I was an atheist.

Now that I'm Catholic, at least I have compassion for them.

I'm not even sure why the moderator deleted your comment, because I thought it indeed displayed the difference that SHOULD be present between atheists and Christians. Not all atheists despise gay people - but the ones who do are often unburdened by a religious moral compass that demands compassion for fellow human beings. Christans, while called upon to reject sin, are also called upon to love sinners (including themselves).

For all we know, they were there with him...

Well, I'm sure he knew, which is why you've never heard of any.

“’We want to ask those candidates, ‘Is it OK to use your religious beliefs to make public policy that denies the full rights and protections of the Constitution to GLBT people?’” Creech said. “

They have the all the rights of anyone else. They do not get SPECIAL rights! They are asking to have the right to marry. They have it. They do not have the right to marry a person of the same gender. Neither does anyone else.

"using their biblical interpretations to justify legalized discrimination "

I think Leviticus is clear and NOT open to "gay" interpretation. Also clear is the call against sexual immorality in the NT.

"...or lack of protections for any American is just plain wrong."

Which freakin "protections" are queers denied? These people are in the same class as the racial and ethnic supremacists. They want top billing with special treatment and privileges because of nothing more than their choice of sexual proclivities.

Here we go kids! Gay lobby frustration designed as justification for the moronic hate Crimes bill that just passed the Congress!

Could these Q folk BE ANY MORE OBVIOUS?

I am actually embarrassed for them!

The day that those in government can tell me what to believe about God and His Word is the day that the social contract has been broken, and that our free republic is dead.

Jimmy, sex is not a right. If it is, we have the makings of one heck of a class-action suit.

Sh*t floats and there’s enough floating around this so-called queer advocacy grp.

It’s a sick sick country we live in, and getting sicker each day. It’s not enough these self destructive moraly depraved, angry, hateful ‘persons’ lead themselves into hell, they want to take the whole nation with them.

Romans 1:26-28

26. Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural 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. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.

28. Furthermore, since they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, he gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done.

Homosexuality is an abomination unto God. There isn’t any other biblical interpretation. I stand with God.

Syphilis rise in U.S. gay, bisexual men causes worry

Such a healthy lifestyle!

Don’t they have the 14th Amendment? If it is good enough for the rest of them, it should be good enough for them.

Forget about religion. It’s a medical issue. Gays engaging in gay sex (that’s what they’re all about of course) are a menace to world health. The root cause, the original cause, of AIDS is gay sex. It has been spread further to heterosexuals via needles, blood, prostitutes, etc. so now even babies are born with AIDs. Gays produce absolutely nothing - homo sapiens would cease to exist if the world were gay. But they have caused the death of millions, and the spending of billions of dollars in U.S. taxpayer money.
