Newt Gingrich said that conservatives will have to accept marriage equality after three more states this year voted to allow same sex marriage and more will likely do the same in the 2014 election.
The former Speaker of the House said he didn

uh, no...incorrect..the Catholic church certainly recognizes all baptisms as long as they follow the proscribet words, signs, etc. However, you cannot be baptized a Methodist, nor a lutheran, nor an anything wlse but a Catholic. While the Baptism may be valid, and is recognized by the church, and that no additional baptism is required to rejoin the Catholic church, it is because you were already beptized Catholic.
Look at it this way...you are baptized a Christian....there is only one true Christian church on earth...the Catholic church. The 20,000 or so other denominations are just that...splinter groups protesting one thing or another having to do with Catholicism. That's fine, but they are all separated brethren, baptized into christianity, who have chosen not to follow Christ's true church. I agree that people can convert to Catholicism, but only those who were not were not the beneficiaries of a legitimate baptism.Those who were, are merely coming home.
Well, it certainly took you long enough to string that sentence together Mr. Packer.
Not bad at all if I must say so myself...made sense, is totally true and might teach you a thing or two. Now I am from Wisconsin and being called Mr.Packer is a compliment. I'm not sure where you're from, but you would know much more about it's connotations than I would....you've been there and done that!
The story of Shadrak, Meshak and Abednigo should be a model lesson for Christians here. You can’t support a platform that defies God’s Word and still be fireproof. That includes supporting a political party that requires one to do so. With it’s support for the murder of babies and the recognition of sexual perversion as acceptable despite the teachings of His Word, it truly makes the Democratic Liberal platform the “Anti” in Antichrist. Politics will deceive many into losing their souls.
Nope, not a day in my life, and I’m no longer a Newt supporter, as he’s an obvious whore.
Is that clear enough for you?
Santorum was still running through the vast majority of the primary states, and far ahead of Newt in delegates. The Newt supporters certainly did not "try to find any possible option" or "rank Santorum ahead of Newt", otherwise they would be have been "Santorum supporters" like myself. Most of the "ANYONE but Romney" crowd quickly morphed into "NOBODY but Newt"

Those links don't help you much. Sarah had Todd endorse Gingrich shortly after those two articles were published.
I doubt that you realize the dark side of Santorum's history, and the similarities that he shares with his man Mitt Romney, including being anti-Reagan, and leaving his pro-abortion position to run for office, and even supporting removing the pro-life plank from the party platform.
What is Newt talking about? Boy, has he lost it. There’s no such thing as gay marriage. He needs to check the definition of marriage. That will never change. Apparently Newtie didn’t check with his Pastor prior to bloviating.
"We dew agwee on sumfin', don't we Newt?"
"Yes, our country must take action now to address marriage equality"
"Togewther, we can fwight hateful twaditional marriage bigots standing in way of Newt's fowrth marriage"
“God needs to help us.”
Don’t you mean we need God to help us? 2 Chron.7:14 points out very plainly what we need to do.

I have no idea what you’re trying to say. If you’re going to attempt sarcasm, you need to do so a little more coherently.
What it SEEMS like you’re trying to say - that this is indeed a federal matter based on some moral consideration - is the exact same position leftists take to shove gay marriage and nationwide legalized abortion down our throats. You’re on the opposite side in terms of the end-result but on the exact same side in terms of process. “Law X is good; therefore Law X should be the law throughout the land.” Are you familiar with the 10th Amendment?
Were we better off when abortion was legal in a FEW states or when the Supreme Court basically reasoned just as you did above and made it illegal everywhere? Same thing could happen with same-sex “marriage.”

Open up a history book. Read the section of "popular sovereignty" movement of the 1850s. It was a failed political strategy that attempted exactly what you are advocating. Resulted in nasty stuff like "bleeding Kansas"
>> Are you familiar with the 10th Amendment? <<
Yes. The 10th amendment states that matters NOT already delegated to the federal government are the jurisdiction of the states, OR the people themselves. The 10th amendment does not apply in this case since the bill of rights and 14th amendment already guarantees ALL Americans the right to life. Hence, Roe v. Wade is wrongly decided. States no more have the "right" to kill unborn children than they have the "right" to ignore the 2nd amendment and ban guns. Life and liberty are NOT matters left up to state governments to be "optional" in America.
I ALSO PICKED RICK!
gingrich is giving us Nuance bs.
married in church or law is the same. the LAW does NOT recognize a church marriage. It is the priest as notary that is recognized.
gingrich is saying this because he thinks the base is stupid.
Kind of like how no fault easy divorce certainly helped this country and made disappear all kinds of societal problems. /end sarcasm
And to think that many try to separate politics and obedience to God. So many say no one can win an election without caving morally.
Maybe that’s why President Ronald Reagan is astounding: he was a decent, law-abiding man who acknowledged God and yet actually won. I don’t believe he would have tolerated this for a moment. Good people have to stand up for right, just like those three did, in ancient Babylon.
“If we ever forget that we are One Nation Under God, then we will be a nation gone under.” - Ronald Reagan
What a contrast to Newt Gingrich!
Gingrich pretends to be a Catholic. If he really were Catholic, he would listen to the Pope on gay marriage. The Pope the other day pointed out the immense danger of redefining marriage into nothingness.
Gingrich, the thrice-married CINO, says ho-hum. Some of my friends are homosexuals, he says, so let’s don’t get them upset.
I thought Gingrich was supposed to have a powerful and courageous intellect.
Note to Newt......GO AWAY AND STFU!!! I THOUGHT YOU WERE CATHOLIC!!!! Seems like it didn’t TAKE!
