Going with your line of thinking along those lines...
Bottom line is if we take your position on so fundamental as the sodomite perversion of matrimony, if we're going to be consistent, then may as well shut down Free Republic, shut down the tea party movement, and all become socialist, pro-sodomite, atheist drones. After all, This toothpaste is not going back in the tube.
I can't speak for you, but, for myself, I'll keep fighting until the Lord calls me home. No surrender, no quarter, no retreat.
In the words of the late, great Leo XIII:
To recoil before an enemy, or to keep silence when from all sides such clamors are raised against truth, is the part of a man either devoid of character or who entertains doubt as to the truth of what he professes to believe. In both cases such mode of behaving is base and is insulting to God, and both are incompatible with the salvation of mankind. This kind of conduct is profitable only to the enemies of the faith, for nothing emboldens the wicked so greatly as the lack of courage on the part of the good. Moreover, want of vigor on the part of Christians is so much the more blameworthy, as not seldom little would be needed on their part to bring to naught false charges and refute erroneous opinions, and by always exerting themselves more strenuously they might reckon upon being successful. After all, no one can be prevented from putting forth that strength of soul which is the characteristic of true Christians, and very frequently by such display of courage our enemies lose heart and their designs are thwarted. Christians are, moreover, born for combat, whereof the greater the vehemence, the more assured, God aiding, the triumph: "Have confidence; I have overcome the world."
- Encyclical Sapientiae Christianae (On Christians as Citizens), 1890
Rxcellent argument, excellent quote.
Aside from the next election, ....how about sharing who and how is this slide going to be stopped now??????
I don’t think people are giving up...however, Obama did win the election...twice no less...and he is on the move til he’s out with few if any doing more than talking. That IS the reality.
Now if you know something we don’t, please do share!
Bravo!
And not I would add that Christians and religious Jews and Hindus should realize our common moral foundation and stand together against the darkness of gross immorality and all the evils you listed!
This “toothpaste” theology has been proven so FALSE by many throughout the history of the world. Ideas can turn on a dime-—like history proves.....and all “minority” ideas can become dominate.
Things which goes against Truth/Natural Laws go against Reason, not just God. Societies go nowhere when they throw out Science and Truth. Sodomy is more that irrational-—it is forcing Vice into culture and a Justice (virtue) System as “normal” and “good”. It can’t be.
We have NO alternative but to return to Truth or we go down. We have to save the minds of our children-—who are being brainwashed RIGHT NOW by the Jerry Browns of the world-—creating kids with a worldview of the little harem boys of Afghanistan.
Worldview is what we are fighting for....the one which created the Constitution and Just Laws. Read my tagline.
