After the Supreme Court issued its ruling on gay marriage Friday, President Obama gave a speech in which he said Americans need to change their religious views to be accepting of gay marriage, the Daily Caller reported. To that end, he encouraged gay marriage supporters to "help people overcome their deeply-held religious views.
I know that Americans of goodwill continue to hold a wide range of views on this issue, he said. Initially, he exhibited a bit of respect for those who oppose same-sex marriage.
"Opposition in some cases has been based on sincere and deeply held beliefs, he said. All of us who welcome todays news should be mindful of that fact. Recognize different viewpoints. Revere our deep commitment to religious freedom.
"But today should also give us hope that on the many issues with which we grapple often painfully real change is possible, he added. The implication was clear: Those who disagree with the idea of gay marriage based, for example, on their religious views, must change to be more like progressives who accept gay marriage.
Shifts in hearts and minds is possible, he added. And those who have come so far on their journey to equality have a responsibility to reach back and help others join them. Because for all our differences, we are one people stronger together than we could ever be alone.
"Thats always been our story," he continued. "We are big and vast, and diverse. A nation of people with different backgrounds and beliefs, with different experiences and stories, but bound by our shared ideal that no matter who you are, or what you look like, how you started off, or how and who you love Americas a place where you can write your own destiny.

It doesn’t work that way.
Satan has no control over Hell/Hades or the Lake of Fire.
The Antichrist, whomever he may be, and the False Prophet are both thrown immediately and directly into the Lake of Fire when Christ returns at the Second Coming.
Revelation 19:20 King James Version (KJV)
20 And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brims
Later, much later (1000 years), Hell is thrown into the Lake of Fire:
Revelation 20:14 King James Version (KJV)
14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
Legalize sodomy? What could possibly go wrong, Lot?
Nice catch.

I’m guessing that is in Israel, so perhaps, yes, here in CONUS

Revelation 19:20 King James Version (KJV)
20 And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.
I am reminded of Pharaoh.
If the 17th of Tammuz falls on Shabbat, the fast is postponed until Sunday.

In post 9, ConjunctionJunction, made a comment about NJJ forgetting about the reeducation camps, and left is as a questionable /s.
Looks like it was the best option so far.
It’ll be the choice given before the rest of them, like the bullet in the back of the head.
And now they don’t have to worry about fixing black families.
They let the black men off the hook by destroying every one else’s family as well.
Sure they did- Hitler rewrote the ten commandments and created a Nazi faux-bible in an effort to do this.
Hitler even created his own version of Nuns to work in hospitals when he kicked out the churches. He took a lot of property away from the churches too, took charity away from them and a lot of other things
Good point about taking the charitable work.
Putting your people in charge at Lutheran and Catholic churches might not work here .... oh, wait a minute...
Yeah, what you said X 10.
I will not take the mark of Omama.
G-d will change YOUR beliefs Obama; rest assured.
