The author didn’t mention God or “asking for His help”

The author appears to be of a mindset with the ERA Amendment cohorts of the 70s...they prayed too..”in a bid to convince” the states to ratify the amendment..

They still needed 3 more states so they chose South Carolina where I was living at that time to be one of those unfortunate last 3 states and ascended on us for weeks..praying and doing a litany of rituals from various religions and beliefs..

One of their planned big events was to send lighted candles down the river in Columbia the capital of the state...what a weekend that was...thousands of lights “in a bid to convince” the gods of the South Carolina government that their quest was an earnest one or some such...

Well if you know your Constitutional history you know that the 26th Amendment today is not the Equal Rights Amendment based on sex/gender...

Now praying to convince someone to change his or her mind or make up their mind about something is witchcraft...

But praying to God for mercy and for truth and justice and righteousness with a clean heart and clean hands in the Name of Jesus with faith that He hears and answers is always answered..

In 1980 we literally prayed Ronald Reagan into the presidency..and gathered around the country to do so..and not by dabbling in witchcraft over people’s minds about how they would vote..

we asked God to send us His best, the one who could lead our country with love for the nation, integrity and honor and boldness in the face of our enemies...remember we were suffering from Carter and his treason..

so we were desperate and determined and of one mind and heart..

our Christian leaders and Godly men and women in political office gathered on the Capitol steps in Washington and by satellite lead us in a day of prayer...I remember the big screen set up in a park in downtown Charleston that day..

it was not the only event but this one was organized to included as many cities and large towns as possible..

Pat Robertson and others spoke and prayed...all Christians...no damnable diversity of Moslems or Mormons hugging each other were included IOW no unbelievers spoke that day..

And God answered us and sent a deliverer, a man who was strong and a statesman...Ronald Reagan..

and if you don’t think Reagan’s election was a miracle then you weren’t around in 1980..

God answered pray that year and as the song goes “He’ll do it Again” next year with another God picked man..if we pray to Him and not “amiss”..

Frankly about now I’m not concerned about a piece of paper that homosexuals might win for themselves..they already commit sin in their homosexual sexual practices..the legal document is not going to add to that activity or alleviate the damnation they bring upon themselves..or make God happy...the verses will not change in the Bible..

Its not as though they stay virgins until the “wedding” night..

For centuries homosexuals have contentedly had “sex” with each other sans a legal form of permission sanctified by clergy or a government..they didn’t think of nor desire any type of permanent bounds of monogamy and there is no historical literature which expounds the joys of marriage for queers, poofters or faggots..even some kings had their boys along with their mistresses..

Meanwhile if such energy was used back in 1972 about the so called “Catholic issue” we might not have whole sale “legal” abortion today...

and there were so many less on the evil side in those days...while the fight against abortion was rejected as “a Catholic issue” which was of no concern to Protestants, there were states at that time like North Dakota with only 12% Catholic and against abortion more than 50% which were ready to vote on the subject and ban the very idea..

But now 40 years later with this subject where nobody dies and people are not as outspoken as they were in the 1970s when they weren’t punished for their opinion,

Several years ago we here in Tennessee voted in our own Marriage Amendment into our Constitution and the wording is clear that only one man and one woman may legally marry in our state...other states also have their laws..

Whether or not the SCOTUS decides on universal marriage for homosexuals, if your sovereign state allows them to marry there, what will you do ? We prayed and worked in our own state (Thank God the Mormons didn’t come and muck it up for us like they did in California)Our amendment was strongly worded and would not be easily overturned by any courts..

When FRed Thompson said in 2008 that the states should decide on abortion, I partially thought him wrong, but he had a good point in that if the states are operating as the should their right to decide how their individual laws will be implemented and enforced should be protected under the Constitution as it is suppose to be...

Right now in the US, homosexuals can legally “marry” in some states, including, thanks to Willard Mitt Romney, Massachusetts, a formally Christian colony with very strict church laws..

Each state has its own traffic laws...While I can go 70 on the highway in TN, I cant in some other states...I cant say I can back home, so I will here..the same happens when 2 homosexuals marry in MAS...they cant come to TN and expect the local government to honor their piece of paper in state matters..

Anyhoo, “praying” witchcraft over the minds of the judges in SCOTUS to convince them to certain action is not of God..Asking and Seeking and Knocking on God’s door with a sincere heart in the Name of Jesus always works..
