No, I know about the Texas law and precisely how long it has been on the books.
Now that you've brought up your anecdotal evidence, would you care to do a search for the laws that have been introduced in the past 50 years on the subject of homosexual behavior and break down their purpose and who has introduced them?
I'm willing to bet that, if you took the time, you would find that the homosexual rights crowd has been submitting most of them and their purpose is to persecute those who don't wholeheartedly accept the homosexual agenda. And that's if you include DOMA laws (which I would).
Shalom.
Oh, spare me the excuses.
This is the extent of my starting "name-calling" in our conversation?
"The objective reality here is that we live under the governance of a secular government, and a system created by some people who took great pains to, in spite of their strong beliefs, impose obstacles on religious zealots from duplicating the work of tbe Taliban in this country."
I drew a comparison between out form of government, and a well-known theocracy.
Far from name-calling.
