So You Think That Rainbow Makes You Look Cool? (contains profanity)

I have an important public service announcement for everyone who changed their Facebook and other profile photos to a rainbow recently. Absent some massive desire for more color in your life, you probably did this to celebrate the United States Supreme Court magically creating a constitutional "right" to a marriage license for gay people. Didn't you?

I suppose you think this makes you quite tolerant, and forward thinking, but it doesn't. I imagine you think you're advancing freedom, but you're not. You probably feel really good about yourself for helping gay people gain acceptance in society, but that's not even remotely close to what you're actually doing.

By making this display, you have done nothing but tell the world that you are a useful idiot.

FB has already canned my account for other “uppity” sentiments.

Let’s see how long this version of me lasts.

:)

Since the SCOTUS cannot (?) hear its self, and the gay marriage ruling is not Constitutional nor can be found in any form in that document other than supercilious reasoning ....those states whose voters voted against such a union should be able to ignore or be exempt from that false law i.e. the supreme court CANNOT legislate....that is the job of Congress. This SCOTUS has acted lawlessly...that should be enough to ignore their ruling.

Funny and hard-hitting stuff, but there should be a language warning for this, as it gets a little blue after the link.

Personally, I don't object to this if it gets a point across, but there are some here who do.

- so my FB profile pic is now the Christian Flag. Sad the number of people out there who don’t have a clue that’s what it is

---

“I pledge allegiance to the Christian flag, and to the Savior, for whose Kingdom it stands, one Savior, crucified, risen, and coming again, with life and liberty for all who believe.”

Oops. Thanks. I forgot to do that.

[ari-freedom]

it helped pushed me to finally clean out my facebook friends page :)

[Gritty]

But remember the Sodomite “Rainbow Flag” has only 6 (the number of man) colors and G*D’s RAINBOW has 7 (the number of perfection).

By golly, you are right! I never noticed that. It can't be a "mistake".

Obviously, the Devil, his demons, and his human slaves know what they are doing and it has nothing to do with God!

“I just stopped visiting any pages with a rainbow on them.”

I think people are being surprised that some people they know have just come out as homos. That happened to a father who didn't know his daughter was a homo until she changed her Facebook page image with her face now being a rainbow color.

I have a Facebook page as a conservative friend some years ago wanted me to have such a page. I normally don't go there to my page (have written nothing on there) or anyone else’s. I don't think it is wise (safe) to dump your whole life on a page the world can see. I have never been to this “tweeter” stuff, either.

How do these people have enough time to post endless stuff about themselves on their and other’s Facebook page or tweet?

Oh, I forgot, they do it while driving, smashing into your car. :o)

[IrishBrigade]

In actuality, it isn’t the gayest leatherboy/drag queen on Folsom St that caused this. It’s the straight white liberal.

yes...including every single one of my surviving blood relatives on my mother’s side...

They are nattering on about a family reunion next month, and wanting me to attend...how happy I’m going to be when I tell them ‘nope’...

[IrishBrigade]

My big ass draft horse.

heh heh heh...

[tuffydoodle]

I’m glad they are doing it. That way we know who is making their decisions about eternity based on what their crotch wants. I had (past tense) a friend that has her kids in D.C. right now (ages about 6 to 14). They have been celebrating homosexual marriage by wearing their rainbow t-shirts and discussing how great it is to be a homo. It was like a kick in the gut that she would teach her kids to thumb their noses at God and the Bible.

[MoochPooch]

Seems there’s something deeply religious about marriage, which is why they’re demanding their god - the government - approve their unions.

The gays want validation. That is why they are bothering the institutions. By bullying the latter into sanctioning them, they can have it both ways -- violate societal norms yet without consequences (negative sanctions).

The blogger here seems to contradict himself. He seems more against license or government interference than gay marriage, which to him seems okay as long as it is outside of government realm. He feels "anyone" can marry or do whatever he or she wishes.

I disagree. We are not free to do as we wish. Not with marriage, anyway. There should be rules & some kind of licensing, which is essentially the role of clergy. Our government was based on Judeo-Christian traditions.

I keep thinking “Onward Christian Soldiers.”

Is there a way to deactivate it without losing your pictures?

"But remember the Sodomite “Rainbow Flag” has only 6(the number of man) colors and G*D’s RAINBOW has 7(the number of perfection)." I hadn't thought of that, thanks for the info. The homo rainbow, then, is a fake, an abomination of God's rainbow - just like satan has set himself up is a fake god, now he has a fake rainbow.

Can you believe we are talking about this disgusting physical use of a body and we're supposed to believe this is just swell behavior and applaud these people for their "love" of each other?

Leviticus 18:22 "Do not practice homosexuality, having sex with another man as with a woman. It is a detestable sin." (NLT)

Leviticus 20:13 "If a man practices homosexuality, having sex with another man as with a woman, both men have committed a detestable act. They must both be put to death, for they are guilty of a capital offense." (NLT)

Not to mention Romans 1:

1 Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God,

2 (Which he had promised afore by his prophets in the holy scriptures,)

3 Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh;

4 And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead:

5 By whom we have received grace and apostleship, for obedience to the faith among all nations, for his name:

6 Among whom are ye also the called of Jesus Christ:

7 To all that be in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.

8 First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world.

9 For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers;

10 Making request, if by any means now at length I might have a prosperous journey by the will of God to come unto you.

11 For I long to see you, that I may impart unto you some spiritual gift, to the end ye may be established;

12 That is, that I may be comforted together with you by the mutual faith both of you and me.

13 Now I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that oftentimes I purposed to come unto you, (but was let hitherto,) that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among other Gentiles.

14 I am debtor both to the Greeks, and to the Barbarians; both to the wise, and to the unwise.

15 So, as much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to you that are at Rome also.

16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.

18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;

19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.

20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:

21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.

22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.

24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:

25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.

26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:

27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.

28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;

29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,

30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,

31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:

32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

First they steal the word “gay,” now they take Jesse Jackson’s rainbow.

Nothing we can do about them taking gay, but I think Jesse’s got a trademark infringement case here.

[tuffydoodle]

Years ago (nearly 30) I had a boss named “Gaye.” I’ve always wondered if she changed her name.

[MUDDOG]

It was a drag (no pun intended) losing the word gay.

The song “I’m So Pretty” from West Side Story used to go, “I’m so pretty and witty and gay,” but the official lyrics have now changed “gay” to “bright.”
