We are now approaching the level of tyranny Jefferson warned us about.

...naw, we blew past that signpost several exits past. What’s now coming into play is the result of a criminal lack of common sense. Jefferson’s tree will be watered if for no other reason to prove the truth of his admonition.

The Bible lists homosexuality together with child sacrifice among the “abominations” practiced by the peoples living in the land about to be conquered by the Jews. The two are certainly not morally equatable, but they both characterized a morally primitive world that Judaism set out to destroy. In fact, homosexuality is among the sexual offenses that constitute one of the “seven laws of the children of Noah” that Judaism holds all people must observe). The practice of homosexuality is called an abomination for a reason. Homosexuality denies many of Judaism’s most fundamental principles. It denies life, it denies God’s expressed desire that men and women cohabit, and it denies the root structure that Judaism wishes for all mankind, the family. The Torah equates child sacrifice with male homosexuality: Both represent death. Child sacrifice deprives children of life, homosexuality prevents their having life. This parallelism is present in the Talmud: “He who does not engage in propagation of the race is as though he had shed blood.”

The Bible begins by saying “It is not good for man to be alone.” God could have created another man to keep Adam company. No! Instead, God created a woman; not a few women and not a community of women. Man’s solitude was not a function of his not being with other people; it was a function of his being without a woman. In order to become fully human, male and female must join. The union of male and female is not merely some lovely ideal; it is the essence of the Jewish outlook on becoming human. To deny it is tantamount to denying a primary purpose of life.

The above I have excerpted from the article by Dennis Prager:

“Judaism’s Sexual Revolution: Why Judaism (and then Christianity) Rejected Homosexuality”

http://www.orthodoxytoday.org/articles2/PragerHomosexuality.php

It would be good to read this article for it provides strong arguments about the homosexual abomination that is being celebrated around the world. Prager concludes that what’s at stake is civilization. When men, inspired by their creator declared that sexuality is to be divided between male and female, civilization moved forward as never before. The acceptance of homosexuality as the equal of heterosexual marital love signifies the decline of Western civilization as surely as the rejection of homosexuality and other nonmarital sex made the creation of this civilization possible.

Since when are churches public accommodations?

Someone needs to slap down these people...with prejudice!

>>We are now approaching the level of tyranny Jefferson warned us about.<< And be prepared to do what he said we must do to prevent it. “The people cannot be all, and always, well informed. The part which is wrong will be discontented, in proportion to the importance of the facts they misconceive. If they remain quiet under such misconceptions, it is lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty. ... What country before ever existed a century and half without a rebellion? And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? LET THEM TAKE ARMS. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is its natural manure.” ― Thomas Jefferson, Letters of Thomas Jefferson

This has nothing to do with the Johnson Amendment.

This is about ‘public accommodation’.

Is our government going to come out against Muslims preaching anti-gay, anti-woman, anti-anyone-but-Muslim in their mosques?

I was just going to post the same thing.

Next - churches will be forced to marry homosexuals.

We are no longer America - land of the free and home of the brave.

Wonder how the mosques will react?

“The case erupted when the state’s Civil Rights Commission first claimed the authority to control the content of sermons and then to define what’s religious.”

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +

That is because the Federal Government is EMBRACING hedonism. The Federal Government wants NOTHING to do with God - except to take His place.

We will end up with a valid underground Church (as in Red China) and a much larger state church with clergy like “Reverend” Al Sharpton, “Reverend” Jesse Jackson, etc.

The tree of liberty is looking mighty dry these days.

Scripture trumps law, whether the government agrees or not.

Several hundred churches said no to the mayor of Houston. W had a huge rally at a local mega church. Probably 4,000 people chanting “Let us vote!”.

All denominations were there, protestant, Catholic, Easter and Russian Orthodox, Jewish. Many black pastors

Phil Robertson spoke as well as national leaders in political or religious life.

We were there for the demonstration and it was one of highlights of our lives.

Simply awesome.

I have sallaid along the real goal of the “alphabet community” is to destroy Christianity. Obama has tried to promote homosexuality in African nations but not Islamic countries. I wonder why?

While there's been a great deal of fear mongering on this subject in the past, this looks like a genuine case of discrimination.

Under the law, compelling an individual business to serve homos is likely legal. But compelling a church to refrain from advocating the written gospel is a clear transgression of the 1st Amendment.
