    LOL, you sound like my mother who threatened Steinbrenner that she would not watch the Yankees if they removed Joe Torre (she had watched every game she could when he was coach)

    Now the entire family follows the Florida teams. Go Rays!!:thumbs:

    Now, can a Pastor, by law refuse to marry two Homosexuals? Scripturally doesnt that compromise a Pastor?

    I believe that the big "hold up" was the wording of the exemptions for religious leaders and stuff. I'm not sure though.

    So it looks like a judge cannot refuse a marriage based on same gender. Neither can a cater, florist, ect. :tear:

    So you're saying God is like Archie Bunker?

    He says it's abominable.

    "The New York Society for Ethical Culture is a welcoming home for humanists"

    No, I doesn't even want to take a look at the agenda!

    Well, San Fran and NYC are not the Only Hot Spots!

    If it's not bad enough, to the north of us, we have gay central (Sodom/San Fran), to the south of us, we have the pride capitol (Gomorrah/Palm Springs). They seem to be flocking to what once was the playground for the rich and affluent. Every year Palm Springs hosts the west coast "Winter Party Festival" and the Springbreak "White Party!"

    Living between these two sin cities makes it almost like living in a sin-like stereo chamber.

    We used to enjoy going to Palm Springs for a nice dinner and some window shopping (couldn't afford the things they sell), but, now that the gays walk up and down the main streets, together and making out. It is a nauseating experience. And one can sense the presence of the spirit of lust and sexual looseness.

    It is a real shame. What is going on all around us when it comes to the relaxing of morals, and acceptance of out-right sin?!?

    Maranatha, "come Lord Jesus, come!" :praying:

    Pastor Paul :type:

    Sadly I believe this will happen before Obama's out of the Whitehouse. He loves the gay community.

    Fellow brothers & sisters, this is a sad time in our country and this is a serious subject. These LGBT people are flaunting their immoral selves in our kids faces and laughing about it. IMO it won't be 10 or 20 years before Christians are hauled off for taking a stand against this sin, it will happen very soon. This will be the area where Satan makes his stand and we better wake up. Of course in a loving spirit. If we truly love them we must warn them of the consequences of their lifestyle. When we do this the radical left will come at us hard and if the country has embraced this, we will be made to look guilty. Are you ready for this?

    The marriage game is over. The majority of children now live in one parent families and I suspect there are 10 times more hetros shacking up than homos who want to get married.

    Anyone who thinks homos3xual marriage isn't going to be near universal law in our country within the next 3 years is living in a pipe dream.

    At this point the best thing evangelical, Bible believing Christians can do is ask the state to get out of the marriage game all together.

    So now that we've got this form of union being established, and having another move to legalize marijuana, and seeing debt ballooning...I can go on...isn't time to wonder if we need a new mandate for the Church.

    We are becoming the worst of Rome.

    So Sad For You!

    You continue to amaze me with your stands! To call marriage a game. Are you married, and is it a game, to you? Worse yet, does your wife know you consider marriage, "just a game?" :tonofbricks:
