What country does this guy live in? Does he really think NPR is “apolitical”? Apparently, he hasn’t heard any of their broadcasts.

It’s an interesting field for speculation - what might have happened if the Cities on the Plain had been politically organized along modern lines.

Perhaps they would have published a newspaper with endless editorials about equal rights; perhaps they would have appointed and paid an Office of the Psychologist General which would have done its best to convince everyone that anything and everything was “normal.”

Possibly they would have agitated in the name of Democracy, doing their level best to conflate the words, “All men are created equal,” with, “All men are the same.”

The end result, of course, would have been just as written in history, since you may come to control significant segments of society, the media, and the legislature, but, try as you might, you can’t bullshit the Celestial Home.

The pisser is that we’re ALL going down with the ship.

Same sex marriage (homosexual relationships are not gay, they are sad, so call it sad pseudo-marriage if you must) is not really a problem so much as it is a symptom.

When it comes to innate sexual preference, only a very small percentage of people are truly cross wired (1 to 2 percent), so whatever crybaby noise homosexuals make about their pain at being born mildly defective really does not make much difference one way or the other. All of the noise about same sex marriage is just a symptom of the left’s ongoing assault on strong, independent families that produce moral civil citizens free from feral government dependency.

But the real damage has been done by the proliferation of easy, no-fault divorce, which has resulted in an ever increasing number of children being raised in broken homes (3 out of 4 in the case of Americans of Amish decent).

This is what we get when we FAIL to OBEY God.
For it is written: Those who support homosexuals are against our Heavenly Father and His Son Jesus Christ.
These anti Christ people only bring destruction on us ALL.
I have NO sympathy for homosexuals!

Homosexuality is a "Mark" of disobedience.
Someone once asked The answer is in the definition of "REPROBATE". And the reason"why" is given in the Bible.

God has a cure for homosexuals.

"Indeed I tremble for my country when I reflect
that God is just,
that his justice cannot sleep forever."

Here’s an interesting take on how the government might force churches to accept homosexuality.

Many churches have accepted the IRS classification of being non-profit. To stay non-profit, they cannot discriminate according to the federal guidelines. At some point, the IRS may enforce this rule to force churches to allow unrepentant homosexuals to preach at the pulpit.

Any non-profit church that continues to discriminate may find their non-profit classification yanked and could be forced to pay up all the taxes they would owe for the entire time that they were a non-profit organization, which for denominations could be millions or even possibly billions.

it seems as if the media is really out to shame any country, person or group who does not toe the politically correct line on this issue.

True. Except when it comes to muslims. Who are given a complete pass.

Some "victims" are more important than others.

One can be 100% opposed to gay marriage for completely secular reasons. Homosexual sex uses the human body in ways it is most clearly not designed. Nature also has a vote, and no same-sex “union” can ever be viable. In fact, it’s impossible to even have a union in the natural sense of the word, because the parts don’t fit.

There is nothing wrong with holding homosexual relationships in less regard than heterosexual ones, because the latter involve using our bodies and minds (male and female minds are different of course) as designed. Not only that, but a good percentage of heterosexual unions (the word is actually appropriate here) are indeed viable, and society should be interested in seeing that the offspring of such unions are raised well. The best way to do that is to give cultural approval, via the law for example, so that the union is an enduring one, thereby creating a stable environment for the children with their biological parents.

Again, none of this is based on religion. It’s simple nature and reason. Anyone who disagrees and tries to claim homosexual sex is equivalent to heterosexual sex is, frankly, not thinking rationally. That doesn’t mean we can’t tolerate homosexuality, but it’s absolute lunacy to say its equal to normal, natural, male/female unions. Homosexuality is dysfunctional. Heterosexuality is normal.

I am really surprised at the amount of people who call themselves Christians who are pro gay marriage. A lot of them are vicious in their condemnation of Christians who do not think the same way calling them heartless and unforgiving and worse. They are harder to talk to than homosexuals themselves!

Because legal acceptance of gay marriage is being celebrated as a victory for civil liberties, it seems as if the media is really out to shame any country, person or group who does not toe the politically correct line on this issue.

The "civil liberty" argument is based on the false premise that men and women are interchangeable. The civil liberty argument does not apply to same sex marriage because man and women are NOT interchangeable.

The consequences of homosexual activity have already significantly increased the cost of medical care to the population at-large. Costs of diagnosis and testing have increased. Because of the risk of cancer and other diseases, a simple sore throat could be instead be caused by a sexually transmitted disease. Hemorrhoids could be instead anal cancer, rectal gonorrhea, or rectal chlamydia. You will pay for those additional costs, not corrupt lawmakers and lawyers in black robes.

The encoding into law perversion will adversely impact the culture resulting in the spread of AIDs and other STDs, the destruction of the family, and increased risk to the physical and mental health of the population, with attendant increases in cost of health care.

All of this coming to your neighborhood thanks to the Democrats and low information voters.

NPR does in fact receive some federal funding. The Corporation for Public Broadcasting (which itself is federally funded) has funded public radio (NPR) since its inception through an act of Congress over forty years ago.

Will religious views be exempt?

Will GOD's mind be changed??





 

Genesis 13:13
Now the men of Sodom were wicked and were sinning greatly against the LORD.

Genesis 18:20-21
20. Then the LORD said, "The outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah is so great and
their sin so grievous
21. that I will go down and see if what they have done is as bad as the outcry that has reached me. If not, I will know."

Genesis 19:4-7
4. Before they had gone to bed, all the men
from every part of the city of Sodom--both young and old--surrounded the house.
5. They called to Lot, "Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us so that we can have sex with them
."
6. Lot went outside to meet them and shut the door behind him
7. and said, "No, my friends. Don't do this wicked thing.

Psalms 12:8 The wicked freely strut about when what is vile is honored among men.

Doonesbury Cartoon for Feb/08/2013

Isaiah 3:9 The look on their faces testifies against them; they parade their sin like Sodom; they do not hide it. Woe to them! They have brought disaster upon themselves.

2 Peter 2:13b Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.


Ezekiel 16:49-50
49. "`Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy.
50. They were haughty and did detestable things before me. Therefore I did away with them as you have seen.



2 Peter 2

1. But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them--bringing swift destruction on themselves.
2. Many will follow their shameful ways and will bring the way of truth into disrepute.
3. In their greed these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping.
4. For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but sent them to hell, putting them into gloomy dungeons to be held for judgment;
5. if he did not spare the ancient world when he brought the flood on its ungodly people, but protected Noah, a preacher of righteousness, and seven others;
6. if he condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah by burning them to ashes, and made them an example of what is going to happen to the ungodly;
7. and if he rescued Lot, a righteous man, who was distressed by the filthy lives of lawless men
8. (for that righteous man, living among them day after day, was tormented in his righteous soul by the lawless deeds he saw and heard)--
9. if this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue godly men from trials and to hold the unrighteous for the day of judgment, while continuing their punishment.
10. This is especially true of those who follow the corrupt desire of the sinful nature and despise authority. Bold and arrogant, these men are not afraid to slander celestial beings;
11. yet even angels, although they are stronger and more powerful, do not bring slanderous accusations against such beings in the presence of the Lord.
12. But these men blaspheme in matters they do not understand. They are like brute beasts, creatures of instinct, born only to be caught and destroyed, and like beasts they too will perish.
13. They will be paid back with harm for the harm they have done.
Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.



But there IS hope!!!

1 Corinthians 6:9-11

9. Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived:
Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders
10. nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
11. And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.


If you could NOT change, you would be in most pitiful shape...
