At this point, there's nothing we can do to stop the redefinition of marriage in the secular world, so our emphasis need to change to protecting our own legal rights, e.g., not allowing pastors, priests, rabbis, photographers, cake-makers, etc. to be forcibly conscripted into participating in the weddings, or our children to be indoctrinated into their ethos.

Nothing we can do? This is a fundamental attack not only on our Constitution but on the whole principle of natural law.

No quarter can be sought or given. No compromises can be made. The minute you agree to this heinous lie you have declared yourself a slave to the state and from then on are merely arguing about the size of the ration it chooses to allot you.

Any diktat that countermands the natural rights we have from our beloved Creator is, ipso facto, null and void. We must lay down our most precious selves if necessary to be witnesses to this truth and to preserve these freedoms for our children.

Jail. Rack. Rope. Prepare yourselves.

I'm no more compromising on this issue than I am on Islam, but I still recognize the rights of imams to perform marriages within the context of their own religion.

Short of openly gunning down judges in the streets and engaging in open "asymetrical" warfare, there's no repairing the damage to the Constitution until and unless the consequences of ignoring it and ignoring God's law are allowed to come out in a way that disgusts the vast majority. Even then, you're looking at a generational game rather than an electoral cycle.

To put it another way, this battle is clearly lost, but that doesn't mean that we stop fighting the war--it just means that we shift to a different site and redevelop our tactics accordingly.

And I'm aware that sooner or later they're going to try to force pastors and rabbis to perform ceremonies--and when that happens, we need to fight it all the way to the Supreme Court and, should we fail to get redress there, simply refuse. And we must do so without speaking a single word that is not said in love (though satire and parody are still fair game), and constantly praying for our enemies and doing good to those who persecute us. Our society is engineered to root for the underdog and play to the victim, so we're going to have to be victimized for a while before anyone wakes up to it.

It's happened before, it's happening now, and it will happen again. And the Lord will preserve His remnant of both Jews and Christians, as He always has, until our King comes.

Shalom
