You are quite ignorant, although you don’t comprehend the magnitude of it quite yet.

Are you ignorant of the 1st amendment? Are you ignorant of natural law?

You are definitely and absolutely ignorant of God’s law!

Daniel 5
20 But when his heart was lifted up, and his mind hardened in pride, he was deposed from his kingly throne, and they took his glory from him:
21 And he was driven from the sons of men; and his heart was made like the beasts, and his dwelling was with the wild asses: they fed him with grass like oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven; till he knew that the most high God ruled in the kingdom of men, and that he appointeth over it whomsoever he will.

Pretty sure everyone knows that the OT enjoins the death penalty for male homosexuals and that in the NT, St Paul condemns both male and female homosexuality. However, in our legal system, man-made law is enforced when it conflicts with man’s interpretations of natural law or God’s law.

Anthony “Rainbow Warrior” Kennedy’s SSM ruling is detestable, but it’s law, and conservatives had better stand up for strict and consistent enforcement of the law, because the widespread current acceptance of civil disobedience (=breaking laws “because conscience,” “because religion,” etc) is destroying respect for the law generally, and is encouraging movements like Black Lives Matter, blocking traffic, rioting, and even violence against law enforcement. When you condone civil disobedience, you undermine law and public safety, period. It is bizarre and tragic to see numerous conservatives accept the avowed “democratic socialist” Martin Luther King, Jr’s premise that it’s acceptable to break laws you don’t like “because Christian.” If in the ‘60s we’d consistently and relentlessly arrested, jailed, and fined sit-inners, lie-inners, and rioters, we could’ve avoided the explosion of crime in that decade, but instead we legitimized lawbreaking, abandoned vital social controls, and reaped the whirlwind. From Nixon in ‘68 to Bush in ‘88, Republicans ran on law and order and won. In 1992, even Bill Clinton found it necessary to pledge law and order to win. That only makes it stranger these days to see more and more Republicans backing civil disobedience.
