heh.
Ohhhhhhh....like Bill Clinton did.
“Stanton said he was not surprised that adultery was rated as highly because it is consistent with a philosophy that called for “consent” and “nobody getting hurt.”
Extend that to the rationale for the 43% that believe there isn’t another party in the decision to have an abortion. (You know, like dad, or the baby).
Sick as Hell.
RE: “consent” and “nobody getting hurt.”
Do the Christian Bakers And Christian Photographers who refuse to service gay weddings and are then sued in court, count as “getting hurt”?
No he didn’t
He only married the first one..
the rest were adulterous relationships..
Bigamy was against the law then and has always been ..
Brigham Young was married to one woman and cheating on her with 50+ others...
A modest proposal indeed!
Jesus disagrees with your assessment.
My earnings do NOT belong to caesar. They belong to me.
The government stealing them by force to use for immoral purposes (such as promoting homosexual perversion) is criminal.
Seeking to keep as much of my earnings out of their hands as possible is a moral good.
God asks for only 10%. Anything above 10% that the government would ask for is instantly immoral.
In their mind, the bakers and photographers hurt themselves. Again, sick, but true nonetheless.
Guess what it tells you about those polls!
“I’m surprised 50% still view sodomy as a sin. That’s doesn’t compute with other polls. Better than expected.”
This is exactly what I was thinking. I’m surprised it’s this high since there has been an all out assualt to accept it as normal. This must really make the pro-homosexual crowd crazy. That no matter what they do, half of the population will never accept them as “normal”.
My point is, Jesus does address taxes. And instructs those who follow him to pay their taxes. It doesn’t mean you have to agree with the level or taxation, and doesn’t mean you shouldn’t be fighting to lower them, but by saying “not paying taxes is a sin” in no way puts government ahead of God.
I thought Boris Yeltsin, but I thought he was dead.

RE: Brigham Young was married to one woman and cheating on her with 50+ others...
Did his first wife consent?
And if she did, would it be right then?
If she didn’t consent she would have been “destroyed”
But theres no record that she was ever consulted..
JS usually just got a buddy to pretend to be a pastor and did the “ceremony” in secret down by the river..
What is that???
No one on earth...
Joseph Smith, BY's predecessor, was legally married to Emma.
She did NOT 'consent' to any of the other women he had.
The MORMON GOD threatened EMMA to obey Joseph or she would be DESTROYED!!!
Guess what... she wasn't.
The GOD of Mormonism is a big kidder I guess...

THE
DOCTRINE AND COVENANTS OF THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST OF LATTER-DAY SAINTS SECTION 132
51–57, Emma Smith is counseled (commanded) to be faithful and true; 58–66, Laws governing the plurality of wives are set forth.
51 Verily, I say unto you: A commandment I give unto mine handmaid, Emma Smith, your wife, whom I have given unto you, that she stay herself and partake not of that which I commanded you to offer unto her; for I did it, saith the Lord, to aprove you all, as I did Abraham, and that I might require an offering at your hand, by covenant and sacrifice.
52 And let mine handmaid, Emma Smith, areceive all those that have been given unto my servant Joseph, and who are virtuous and pure before me; and those who are not pure, and have said they were pure, shall be destroyed, saith the Lord God.
53 For I am the Lord thy God, and ye shall obey my voice; and I give unto my servant Joseph that he shall be made ruler over many things; for he hath been afaithful over a few things, and from henceforth I will strengthen him.
55 But if she will not abide this commandment, then shall my servant Joseph do all things for her, even as he hath said; and I will bless him and multiply him and give unto him an ahundredfold in this world, of fathers and mothers, brothers and sisters, houses and lands, wives and children, and crowns of beternal lives in the eternal worlds.

Sodomy and peeking at Playboy nearly a dead-heat?
Say it ain’t so, Joe!
Those poll numbers are an indictment of our moral leaders who have failed miserably to fulfill their responsibilities.
It is either a sin or it is not. One sin is not better then another sin. We do not get to decide which sins are okay and which are not..
