No way is that poll right, it’s being flooded by the left, most people in NJ have no problem with civil unions but they don’t want gay marriage.
BTW, Codey said they wouldn’t bring it to the floor unless they had the votes, do they have the votes? or is he just appeasing the gay community?
I don’t think most people in NJ support civil unions; it was never put to a vote for that reason. The NJ I live in is slowly filling with people from places where homosexuals are still stoned to death (by popular demand); the longer this goes, the worse the prospects are for “legitimization” of this evil deed.
I voted no and the yes column grew...check it out
Perhaps it should be made clear to the state legislature that they,too,just might have all the time in the world for golf in the coming years just like their pal Jon.

Coleus: My remarks below are not directed personally to you; I’m responding to the subject matter. Thanks for posting.
Too many have been too soft on the issue of sodomy and sodomites in our society for too long.
Although we have spent more than 30 years in the ministry preaching that all men without Christ are under condemnation for sin. Although we preach that Christ died for the sodomites and BECAME SIN FOR THEM (2 Corinthians 5:21), taking on Himself the wrath of Almighty God for even the wickedness of sodomy, and satisfied God’s judgment. Although we preach that God is NOT willing that ANY should perish, not even the sodomite, and wants them to come to repentance —— we are nonetheless accused of the sin of “hating the sinner instead of the sin.”
The now popular expression, “Hate the sin, but love the sinner,” seems now to have taken on the meaning, “Go soft on sin lest you offend the sinner.”
“God is not willing that any should perish” (2 Peter 3:9) is an expression of this dispensation when God is not overtly pouring His wrath out on this earth for man’s sins, yeah, “not imputing their traspasses unto them” (2 Corinthians 5:19), and waiting for His goodness, instead of His wrath, to grip their hearts and lead them to repentance (Romans 2:4).
As every dispensation has ended in man shaking his fist in the face of God and His words, so these last days reveal the same. The stickler: God does demand repentance. God does demand change in belief and behavior. Read the Scriptures yourself, we should not have to be spoon-fed (Romans 2:4; 2 Timothy 2:25; Acts 20:21; 26:20).
The salvation of God is not a clean glove covering a filthy hand. When God saves, He cleanses and changes people. This is what men, even in our churches, don’t really want. They want as much of the world and the flesh as they can possibly have and still hear people call them “Christian.”
The worldly church, of course, must go soft on sin to sooth its own conscience. And so when others have very definite standards of morality—when they identify with a traditional morality of the period of our Nation’s founding—when they are determined to read their Bible and declare that God is right and His words are true about every issue of life including the wickedness of man . . . .
. . . unbelievers and worldly Christians accuse them of judging, and hating people (even though it IS biblically correct to judge and make judgements about these things), and telling them, “You don’t have to love the sin, but you must love the sinner.”
Nobody loves any man more than the man who tells the truth; who tells God’s truth. “The way of life is above to the wise, that he may depart from hell beneath.” (Proverbs 15:24.
“Yea, [man’s] soul draweth near unto the grave, and his life to the destroyers. If there be a messenger with him, an interpreter, one among a thousand, to shew unto man [God’s] uprightness: Then he is gracious unto him, and saith, Deliver him from going down to the pit: I have found a ransom.” Job 33:22-24.
People who don’t want god’s standards, in their personal lives, in their homes, in their schools, or in society -— or just don’t care -— also don’t want God’s messengers. God uses human messengers.
Then there are churches and entire denominations which have accepted as the messengers of God the sodomites themselves. Some other denominations have said, “Well, he can be ‘gay’ as long as he is celibate.” No, the true ministers of God agree with God, not with man’s civil rights agenda. What moral or spiritual help to anyone’s young people or young families would come from such a one who enthrones in his heart a sexual lust for the same sex?
When God saves or regenerates people, He does not leave them in such a condition. God cleanses and changes the heart, the attitudes, the thought process; the moral conclusions become altogether different (2 Corinthians 5:17).
God’s messengers are the one’s who sense their own unworthiness and sinfulness. Those are the souls God calls to the ministry. But they are often rejected, just as was Isiaha, Jeremiah, John the Baptist, the Apostle Paul who at the end of his ministry had seen all forsake him, and the Lord Jesus Himself.
Men say:
“You don’t love.”
“Judge not lest ye be judged.”
“You are arrogant and think you are better than everyone else.”
“You think you are right and everyone else is wrong.”
Have you ever come to realize that there are indeed times when one man or a few are right, and everyone else is wrong?
The vast majority of the population of New Jersey wants the legislature to approve sodomite marriages? Too few of God’s messengers have traversed New Jersey for too long a period. If the poll is right, the state has descended into a societal reprobate mind.
New Jersey folks: You are not safe there. Your children are eveless safe there than you are. If your children attend government schools in New Jeresey, they are is very grave danger. Very soon, virtually everything your children are going to hear in school about home, love, marriage, and child-rearing will be indoctrination by people who have perverted their minds and hearts to think that marriage is Adam and Steve. And those teachers will absolutely want your children to, not only accept their wickedness as normal, but they will push every encouragement and lure for your children to have sex behind the bleachers, Dave with Bob and Sue with Cathy.
With all the love you might muster for fallen man and his plight, what is happening in New Jersey is what happens when people are soft of the sin of sodomy over a long period of time.
