Praise the Lord and pass the ammo!

Those damn Brits. Trying to get back at us any way they can for our Revolution.

Well that's the gist. They're also really good at crying "victim" when someone they've hurt calls them on the stupidity or danger of their beliefs.

See i.e. the US Televangelists who went to Africa. Stir up anti-gay sentiment in Africa where there wasn't any. When gay people start getting murdered, they all say the same thing: "You're attacking me and my beliefs! You are so closed-minded and disrespectful to your fellow man! I just went there preachin' the Lord and now I'm the one that's being stabbed!"

Zach Wahls, a 19-year-old University of Iowa student spoke about the strength of his family during a public forum on House Joint Resolution 6 in the Iowa House of Representatives. Wahls has two mothers, and came to oppose House Joint Resolution 6 which would end civil unions in Iowa.

Color me impressed with his eloquence!

You saved me the trouble. This guy is fantastic! This is the future the bigots won't be able to stop from coming.



Oh, except your blurb is incorrect. The Iowa House passed a resolution to do a Prop 8 in that state. That is, take away the equal marriage rights already being enjoyed by loving gays and lesbians in Iowa, its Supreme Court having recognized that it's constitution enshrines that right and has done so all along.

They ousted the Supreme Court judges that came up for re-election last November.

The Democrats control the Iowa Senate, so this bill is not likely to proceed further. In any event, Iowa is a little smarter than California in that a Constitutional Amendment requires the vote of the people - in two consecutive years. Bravo Iowa. (According to Zach, the Iowa Constitution is the least amended constitution in the U.S.)

I went and looked up the passage.

God is one weird sonofabitch.

God did not punish the Sodomites because they were homosexuals. God got pissed that they were ignoring him, so he stopped preventing them from becoming homosexuals so he could THEN punish them. " God gave them over to shameful lusts" "God gave them over to a depraved mind".

That's a pretty desperate cry for attention.

Throughout the Old Testament, Yahweh is portrayed as a spoiled brat violent crybaby hypocrite monster. Yeah, I wonder if man was made in God's image or if it was the other way around, huh?

Not that I have a problem with first cousins getting married, but

You can't marry your first cousin in Mississippi or Texas?



The world is not what I thought it was.
