You Will Be Made to Care (Ref: Duck Dynasty and the Gaystapo)

A nation founded by pilgrims seeking out religious freedom, and the chance to worship the God of the Bible without interference from big government or persecution from the culture, has now come full circle.

In August, Duck Dynasty returned for another season with a record 12 million viewers, which was the largest audience for an original show in the history of cable television.

Four months later one of its stars, Phil Robertson, was essentially fired today by A&E Network which carries the show because he’s a Christian that believes the Bible. And the Bible teaches homosexuality is a sin and goes against God’s plan for His creation.

You will be made to care.

When a network fires arguably its biggest star for believing the Bible, and expressing those views in a way that was not inflammatory or incendiary, it’s essentially saying it would rather bow at the altar of political correctness than make a profit. Duck Dynasty has become A&E’s biggest cash cow. If Duck Dynasty and all the wealth, jobs, and prosperity its success provides cannot trump the homosexual agenda, then nothing can. Pop culture is essentially choosing the promotion of sexual deviancy even over its own greed. The truth is many companies in corporate America have been doing the same for years now, and so does most of the media as well. The tolerance mob and its gaystapo are out to silence all opposition to their brave new world of deviancy.

You will be made to care.

This is a day and age where the government can order you to bake a cake, take photos, and provide lodging in the name of acceptance of homosexuality—and you’re not allowed to conscientiously object on religious grounds. In fact, your Constitutional rights to religious liberty and free speech will be taken away in order to make way for the new, make believe right to sexual deviancy.

This is no longer the America we were supposed to be, and it hasn’t been for quite some time. This is no longer about saving the republic. This is about restoring one.

Let the record show which side are the ones pushing their agenda down everyone’s throats, and using the coercive force of government and mobocracy tactics to bully its opponents. Let the record show that the sad truth is too many Christians in America are too wimpy to fight back, and actually are more inclined to criticize those fighting for them instead. Nevertheless, although most American Christians would gladly choose a “live and let live” fantasy land rather than actually taking a stand, that option does not exist. The bully aggressors in the tolerance mob have ordered their gaystapo to seek out and silence Biblical teaching and belief regardless of the wimp factor of the believer.

You will be made to care.

Soft-headed conservatives and libertine libertarians now have a choice to make. Either they can realize the homosexual movement is an enemy to freedom and liberty, and is being used by those who want to impose statism in order to silence the Christian Church, which has always been the greatest obstacle to statism. Or, they can continue their willful ignorance and continue to believe the lie neutrality is a viable option. Understand, of course, that if you choose the Neville Chamberlain road the statists will take you down next after they’re done driving the Christian Church into the cultural catacombs. And without a vibrant, bold, and courageous church shining its light in the darkness, you’ll be as vulnerable as a flock of ducks on a Robertson family hunting trip.

You will be made to care.

Our low-information-voter friends and family with their equal signs as Facebook avatars are this movement’s useful idiots. They may think it’s none of their business what consenting adults do in their own bedrooms, but the homosexual movement begs to differ. They are making their behavior very public, and have no intention of co-existing with religious liberty anymore than Islamists want to co-exist with Christians and Jews. There is no co-existence, there is only unconditional acceptance. And that unconditional acceptance will also have to include you and your children’s belief system—no exceptions. No more gender, no more morality, and no more restraint.

You will be made to care.

Now that everyone knows once and for all where the tolerance mob truly stands, there are no excuses. Your friends and family that think they can have it both ways will eventually turn against you unless they come to know and worship the God of the Bible, so they can avoid being shunned by the culture.

You will be made to care.

You will eventually see American media, even “conservative media” in some circles, refuse to provide those with a Biblical worldview access to their platform or treat their perspective as a valid one worthy of consideration in the arena of ideas. Christians with a Biblical worldview will be treated like racists, even if they’re black or Hispanic.

You will be made to care.

Any politician who thinks he can incorporate even 1% of this worldview into his coalition is either a complete and total moron, or speaking to you with a forked tongue. Ask yourself this simple question: has the tolerance mob shown any willingness to tolerate, accommodate, or compromise with Christianity at all? Any politician who claims the contrary is either too gutless to defend your freedoms or unwilling to, and isn’t worth voting for no matter what the alternative is because the end result is still the same—liberty lost.

You will be made to care.

I will be mocked by lefty blogs and called paranoid by some of you for even writing this. But that’s because you’re either a liar or a fool. Most of you are liars, and have been lying to the American people for decades about your true goals to turn America into a pagan, progressive mobocracy—which are now becoming clear.

The rest of you are fools. You just don’t want to know because you’re governed by nothing other than emotion. Regardless, all of you are the same people who promised us if we accepted homosexuality as the new normal nobody would lose their freedom, and that those of us who warned the country to the contrary were scaring people with red herrings. Now that the day has come when those red herrings have become our reality, you are silent—proving you’re either liars, fools, or both.

But I am not angry with you. Instead, I pity you, for you are unknowingly sealing your own fates. You are suppressing the only antidote to the hole in your own souls, and what’s rotting away at the soul of our nation. While you may be successful imposing your will on people who believe like me in this life, all of your predecessor persecutors throughout history have learned in eternity that you’re on the losing side of HIStory.

So instead of encouraging those like me to give you a taste of your own medicine, I will encourage them to pray for you instead. You’ve already lost this debate, but you don’t have to be eternity’s losers. The Lord Jesus Christ you seek to erase from public view offers you forgiveness, redemption, and restoration. He’s willing to erase all of your offenses against him, just as he once erased ours. He loves you every bit as much as he loves those you disagree with. He loves you so much he laid down his life for you.

We pray that you figure that out before it’s too late. Otherwise, one day…

…You will be made to care.

That is why we could in time see a very violent revolt down the road.

[American Constitutionalist]

The great falling away, is already happening in the church as we speak for these sodomites have and so too the feminists have crept in to pollute the church, to corrupt it.
They are of the Apostate, and also ? the Apostate are those who have fallen away from the faith, or departed from the faith.
Those who preach that Gay is ok in the Church ? they are part of the Apostate.
They can't preach to us God's word because they have not the authorty to do or say.
So these freaks who trow back God's word in our faces ?
They are nothing but hot air and should be shunned and ignored.


2 Thessalonians 2 (Authorized (King James) Version)
1. Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him,
2. that ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.
3. Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
4. who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.

The son of perdition works in them and lawlessness.
They also deny the one and true son of God, Jesus Christ and his salvation.

We will soon find pastors who refuse to perform "weddings" will lose their license with the state and be driven from the pulpit for reading the bible out loud!

That is indeed the next shoe to drop. When the government (through the civil courts, doubtlessly, starts forcing churches to conduct "weddings", even the most casual observer will have to acknowledge the death of Constitutional law. Don't think it's not coming, and soon.

“The free speech amendment use to pertain to getting your opinion out but today, it is impossible when the media is so one sided.”...

Considering what Phil Robertson stated, he got his opinion out but got crucified by the media for it. Definitely a double standard by the media but it certainly has backfired on them.

By Robertson’s statement, this may be the start of the “Christian Crusades” all over again. I sure as hell hope it is as like millions of other Christians, I have had it with the media and their politically correct crap.

Attention all you 12 million viewers pretending to be outraged by this. Cancel your cable or satellite service or pour a big cup of "shut the f*** up!" You are willingly paying for your own demonization. It looks like the dynasty people are ready to tell the pay tv industry to take their business model and go screw. How about putting all of your money where your mouths are? Or is all that fake reality teevee and one hour shows reminding you that the US won WW2 more important to you than your willing, intentional payments to people who hate you?

[Peet]

Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.

[Peet]

Love the word Gaystopo, but no idea why autocorrect keeps capitalizing it. Oh well, just capitalized Gestapo. It’s not capitalized on google’s word definition. Why didn’t it capitalize google?

I saw “GayKK” in a recent thread — liked it.

Yes, the State (aka the Federal Government) will claim that any church/denomination/pastor that refuses to "grant Constitutional 'protections to same-sex' couples," ought to have the tax-exempt status removed as they are standing in the way of a "Civil Right guaranteed under the U.S. Constitution (a LIE)," and most of the sheeple will nod their heads in agreement.

Then, the State will step in and claim that anyone trying to "deny Civil Rights" to another (perform gay-ceremonies, I cannot call this abomination a wedding or marriage) is breaking the laws of this country and should be tried, convicted and jailed for such "racist activities."

Whole denominations will be denounced and buildings will be seized by the State, shuttered and sold for "back taxes!"

It will amount to the same thing as the "mark" on one's forehead!

Or the Jews who fled Hitler’s Germany? Or the blacks who fled to Liberia? Or Moses and the Hebrews fleeing slavery in Egypt? Or the Puritans and others who fled Europe?

Apples and oranges.

We're in the majority, and we're armed, but some are just looking for an excuse to turn tail and run. I say, good riddance to 'em.

[Windflier]

And was lot also a coward?

You won't drag me into that.

There are cowards and turncoats among us. A lot of them sit around talking about how wonderful foreign countries are, and encourage good patriots to seek other shores.

It's despicable.

[zipper]

Yes, one of my favorites!

What about this passage -- close to Phil's words:

Rev 22:14    How blessed are those who wash their robes, so that they have the right to eat from the Tree of Life and go through the gates into the city!

Rev 22:15    Outside are the homosexuals, those involved with the occult and with drugs, the sexually immoral, murderers, idol-worshippers, and everyone who loves and practices falsehood.

It's more specific than the KJV. It's from the CJB (Complete Jewish Bible).

I can see your point, but the older i get the more i doubt the people of this country.

Some people will swallow anything in the name of rights while others believe no one has any rights except the ones given to them by Government.

I would not join in any effort to destroy one mans freedom if the people involved were likely to put my freedom next.

I can not except Homosexual marriage in any way shape or form but if this said effort was to destroy homosexuals i would not have any part because what will the lynch mob go after next?

Homosexual marriage is now legal which means it is honored by the law, the laws are what make a nation.

I do not want to live in a nation which will honor an abomination such as this and at the same time throw some one in prison for one too many drinks or using tobacco.

I can not leave so i do the next best thing and that is just vent my rage.

Psalm 2
2 Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?

2 The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the Lord, and against his anointed, saying,

3 Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.

You Need To Look At Which GOP opposed It

Speaking Of googling

Reagan
Buckley
Goldwater

Average Yankee GOP like Weiker Or Rockefeller was A Social liberal

Dixiecrats..However Flawed Were Not

One Had To Pick Their PoisoN I Guess

Freepers Like stuff Neat And Tidy

and that is precisely why we are always backed into a corner and allow our enemies to define us

the United States Constitution already had every protection necessary for anyone of any rAce

it should have simply been enforced even by the federal government if necessary all these acts and subsequent legislation we’re nothing more than a Political grandstanding for votes

and look where that has led

those rights and that legislation like the pathway for almost everything wrong with America today

and if you cannot see that as a conservative that I guess I will never be able to explain it to you
I was there I lived it at Ground Zero it was a mistake there is no doubt in my mindI

even though as an idealistic young man and very very Sympathetic to the plight of Negroes

it did far far more harm than good

of course no one wants to talk frankly about anything just like homosexuality and their preference for the anal orifice
dare not mention reality or truth

America likes everything sugar coated and dumb down for a ever decreasing national IQ

What if we had a bumper sticker that said
