To begin with, this election was, generally speaking, a rejection of the notion being advanced by many in the establishment wing of the Party that the Republicans needs to move to the Left on social issues like abortion and gay marriage. Earlier this year, GOP establishment leaders like Kevin McCarthy and Paul Ryan announced their plan to begin trying to recruit Young Gun candidates socially liberal, and often homosexual, candidates to run under the Republican banner in an effort to broaden the appeal of the Party, especially to younger, socially liberal voters. John Boehner backed this effort, throwing money at the candidates who had been recruited to run this year. However, the voters who were supposed to be impressed by the GOPs lurch to the Left on individual choice issues instead reacted with a collective yawn. In the race for the open seat in Massachusetts 6th congressional district, Young Gun Richard Tisei - a gay Republican who has a 100% rating from NARAL and Planned Parenthood, who (obviously) supports gay marriage, and who is married to his partner - lost by 15 points to a non-incumbent and relatively unknown Democrat. To give this some perspective, Tisei had ran for the same seat in 2012 against a well-known and long-time incumbent and lost by only a single point. It does not appear that Tiseis choice to flaunt his peculiar lifestyle choice did him or the GOP any favors this time around...

The Arizona spoke about being a married homosexual and pushed the “born that way” line.
In other words, they talked out both sides..
bump
See, she's a lesbian and I was gonna make some Pay-per-view movies.
Now I can't.
Awesome reply wagglebee, destroying the lies of the original post and setting the record straight!
Can’t be helped now, dear.
Better luck next time. :)
A lot of genetics studies have been done on the Old Order Amish. They keep very detailed family trees going back centuries, outsiders almost never marry in, they keep great records of abnormal trait (like homosexuality) and they will quickly expel people for for certain sins and they keep a record of why (and they DO shun homosexuals).
So, one of two things could happen:
1. To not get shunned, the homosexuals keep it a secret and marry as normal. With extensive intermarriage, a recessive gene will eventually become the norm. In other words, there would be entire families of homosexuals and this HAS NOT HAPPENED.
2. Over the centuries, more and more homosexuals will be shunned and since no new bloodlines are introduced, a recessive gene like homosexuality would have died out among the Amish centuries ago. THIS HAS NOT HAPPENED EITHER. Old Order Amish become homosexual at a rate of about 3% which is about average.
And just so nobody gets to thinking that a recessive gene can't become the norm (even though it's recessive) or eliminated completely, consider this: the dominant gene is for humans to have SIX finger and toes on each hand and foot; however, presumably as a result of personal preferences, most people will never come across a person with six fingers and toes.
LOL!
Hi Sarge! Nice to see you. Hope you’re doing well. :)
Actually, there isn't a single verse in the Bible referencing ANYTHING that Saint Matthew ever said. Jesus Christ said a lot of thing and Matthew wrote them down.
However, the verse you reference is about being hypocritical, not judgmental.
Me I don't judge people. I'll let GOD judge me. He'll judge me that I don't criticize people who are different.
Really? If someone is doing something you know to be wrong or dangerous, you say nothing?
If a small child is about to wander into traffic you say nothing?
If you see someone breaking into your neighbor's house you say nothing?
Now, I'm going to guess you think these are ridiculous examples and that you would certainly MAKE A JUDGMENT and then say something.
So, assuming that's the case, why are you willing to standby and watch a person engage in a lifestyle that puts them at a far higher rate of serious disease, will significantly shorten their lifespan, nearly always leads to severe depression and will likely damn them to Hell?
It seems to me that those of us who are willing to tell the truth about homosexuality care about homosexuals a lot more than "nonjudgmental" people like you.
Hear, hear!
Cut out the witch hunt. Homosexuals have a right to be here as long as they do not promote liberal agendas (including homosexual marriage/hate crimes/ENDA etc). Just being homosexual and saying “I am gay” should not be bannable unless we ban all divorced people, atheist, Mormons, adulterers, Jews, fornicators, divorced etc).
That is absolutely on the mark, Wagglebee. Those who care about homosexuals are the ones telling them it's bad for them; those who hate them tell them to keep doing what they're doing, that it's their choice...equal under the law, etc., etc.
We're trying to keep them alive; their so-called friends are trying to kill them.
This is not for you to say.
I guess we agree to disagree. Me, and we have friends who are gay (and yes my landlord for my office is gay) and they are conservative. I believe in small government, and that means I don’t care what you eat or sleep with (if both are consenting adults) or smoke.
See last reply.
There are people who have “idiot compassion”, they refuse to condemn wrongdoing despite there being plenty in scripture supporting such.
So these types end up embracing and condoning wrongdoing.
No matter what it is.

Second link, that post.
Bolded word in link text.
It is a direct quote.
Look it up.
Look who said it.
Might be important.
It says homosexualism not homosexuality. I always believed it meant the political agenda, not just being a homosexual.
