The Gaystapo may think that they've won a victory here but this will serve only to rally the forces of good against them. I'm attempting to find information on how to contribute directly to the affected individuals. Until then, donations can be made directly to TakeBackMaryland.com.

I just heard a great anti-gay marriage commerical on WRKO (Rush.) If God wanted men to marry men and woman to marry woman, he would have put it in The Book. AMEN.

Wait, was that a commercial on Rush or the Taliban Broadcasting Network?

Osama agrees with your logic completely.

I notice that the Founding Fathers left that out of the Constitution as well.

It is bend over time for the opponents of gay preference. It seems to me that the petitioners should have to pay only if they failed to get enough valid signatures, therefore wasting the states time and money. If they got enough but still have to pay that is a detriment to exercising the right to gather them.

Why do you want to PREVENT the voters from deciding on this issue?

If the law is as bad as you believe, then it will be struck down when it goes on the ballot.

It seems some people here are just as bad as Liberals in thinking that they know what is better for everyone else.

You make me sick.

What, did you really expect him to be wrong about everything?

Actually, there have been a number of posts suggesting that many of Osama's followers have indulged in homosexual acts.

As to the flip side and their accuracy, well, let's face it, those bozos can't tell an exit from an entrance.

And make sure they don't forget to get their anal pap smear!

Could it really be that you know that no matter where the commercial was aired...it's right on the target?

(pull in your claws. The attack you used is as stupid as the content of your post)

I don't want to stomp gays out. I just don't think they should get married. Am I a bad guy?

I think you better reread the article. The folks at TakeBackMaryland.com are attempting to get the question on the ballot. The Gaystapo doesn't want the people to be allowed to have a voice. If they get TakeBackMaryland.com to drop their challenge, the bill does not go to the ballot and takes effect immediately.

It seems some people here are just as bad as Liberals in thinking that they know what is better for everyone else. You make me sick.

I'll withhold comment here until you have a chance to reread the article, realize your mistake, and retract the rant.

If you live in California, and vote AGAINST homosexual issues, your vote gets struck down in the courts. Voting doesn't always help. Don't support a way of death. If you truly cared about these people, you'd encourage them to turn away from killing themselves and others.

There is a law that is higher and has more authority then mans law and that is Gods law. When mans law conflicts with Gods law, God commands us to break mans law. The bible makes many examples of this. That is why Paul spent so much time in Jail and God never said for him to stop breaking the law. I would urge every Christian to break any law that goes against Gods law.

"If God wanted men to marry men and woman to marry woman, he would have put it in The Book."

And if God wanted people to eat pork, he would have put that in the Book. (The Constitution is likewise silent on consumption of bacon.)

Pardon me, but I fail to see why your religious notions should have any bearing whatsoever on secular law.

Marriage is a holy institution described in the Bible. God defined marriage to be between 1 man and 1 woman. That is marriage. Any other combination is not marriage but a perversion of Gods law based in heresy. Man could pass a law allowing this to happen but it will not create a healthy atmosphere for society. Christians must work against such laws with extreme prejudice.

where are you again? I remember . . . The United States of America, a country founded on Judeo-Christian Morality. I am not saying that everyone should be Christian, but understand that these values are the core of the country.

Isn't this precisely the sort of reasoning that recently led to unfortunate incidents in New York & Arlington?
