there are always false signatures on petitions that get gathered and used for political purposes. It is impossible to keep them off, the people who collect signatures either as volunteers or paid contractors try very hard to keep the false signatures out, but cannot. So, you are saying that all people who collect signatures for political petititions should be arrested and thrown in jail.

this fellow is exactly correct in his assertion that it is christian persecution. I say that only because it is normal to have false signatures. If they can't prove that he did it on purpose, then they have nothing but an accusation. Unfortunately, that's all they need.

It is only Christian persecution if the allegations are false. If they are false and it is persecution, then these Christians ought to rejoice for they are in line for a great reward.

If any of the allegations are true, then it really isn't Christian persecution as to those allegations. It doesn't matter if gay acvitist groups are allowed to submit fraudulent signatures by the bushel with impunity. There may be and very likely is a double standard at work, but Christians should be under no delusions. They must employ better than ordinary honesty and care--they must employ extraordinary honesty and care.

As long as Christians sojourn in enemy territory, they must expect that the enemy will selectively apply the laws to their discomfort and disadvantage.

You haven' read the article and obviously don't know a thing about this case. The signature gatherers have not been prosecuted or persecuted for false signatures.

Read first, then opine.
