I believe church memberships across the board will skyrocket once that bill is passed.

Re: the title.

Religious leaders vow civil disobedience

I wonder how many of the signatories were among the Notre Dame 88.

To the best of my knowledge, the number is "zero." Could be wrong, though.

Shoot, I wonder how many even made a peep.

I'll have to track that down when I find time...

“...if they are forced to take part in “anti-life acts” or bless gay marriages.”

“Forced”, “civil disobedience”? Grounds for all out War as far as I’m concerned.

If they’d have asked me, I’d have signed too! GOOD job! I think they’ll have to MEAN it and DO it before it’s over.

When pressed to say what sorts of civil disobedience the writers were proposing, its originators were vague on the details

Since punishment must match the crime, in the same way, the disobedience must match the governmental offense.

If tax money going to abortion is the offense, then a withholding of taxes into escrow (perhaps a Swiss account?) is the proper response.

If a requirement to endorse same-sex marriage is the offense, then I'd recommend a removal of all Christian marriages solely to the ecclesiastical realm for HOLY matrimony.

If pastors and churches are forbidden to engage in "political" speech, then the proper response is to speak louder.

One thing I asked in a paper I wrote on legalizing gay marriage was what’s going to happen to a church that refuses to wed them or speaks out against it.

Pretty much, the answer from supporters was that they either didn’t care what happened, believed they would deserve whatever happened to them, or hoped they would be punished.

Nothing less.

Sorry if I seem choked up, but finding this site has been a major blessing in a real time of need.

The righteous shall not bow to impropriety lest they become complicit in the destruction of our nation.

God Bless.

SirKit told me about this the other day. It will truly take courage on all our parts to fight back against this tide, and I’m glad to see religious leaders standing together.
