  1. I think Americans are tired of having everything rammed down their throat. We’ve had illegals rammed down our throat for decades.
    =========================================================

    help me, jesus

  3. Exactly Max. I don’t think any gay couples will be knocking down the doors.

  5. Myra,
    Now that you know “OF” my sins…
    … When can I learn of your’s and judge YOU unworthy of God’s Graces?

  6. Myra,
    “When one has God as his center, he is less apt to fall into such evil ways.”
    … Thus was born the Hijab and Burka. Oh, wrong religion.

    Who did Jesus say we should judge?
    How should we judges others?
    Why spend time and effort judging others?
    If what I do is sinful, who shall be the decider?
    You and your religion, or God?

  7. annieofwi,
    No, I didn’t misunderstand you. I think I didn’t make myself clear.
    Why would anyone get married in a church that doesn’t support them?

  8. Regarding the sins of pastors, There is a war between evil and good in this world and all flesh is tempted. Many good people fall victim to evil when they are desensitized to what evil is. A pastor who does such vile acts is no longer blessed. That is why the Bible, says to pray, pray, pray. When one has God as his center, he is less apt to fall into such evil ways. The devil does not sleep. Pedophilia, child molestation, or porn of any kind is certainly not actions God blesses. They are still God’s children but according to the laws of the secular world, they should be punished by the laws of this world, Was Jesus not tempted on the mount. If He can be tested can not our pastors be tempted also? Many are and unfortunately are not strong enough to fight temptation. It is our duty to weed such ministers out of a leading position in our churches. Their actions are wrong and should be punished by the law.
    We are by no means their judges. Illegal acts are judged by the law.

    To the question, “Is God omnipotent”? Yes, he is and no he does not make trash. What do you consider trash? People who do things that Christians consider evil are not trash. They are still people but people who do not have God as their center. If a child misbehaves, do we not tell him where he has gone wrong? We were born with the ability to make choices and many times we make bad choices, and if a person chooses to continue leading an ungodly life after finding out he is doing unacceptable things, is there no hope for him? THERE IS ALWAYS HOPE.! “Does not the Shepard leave the flock to save one lost sheep? God made us with the ability to choose right from wrong and what we do is our choice, not his. We choose to do good or bad. And, we are flesh and not anyone’s judge. God’s creations are all good. The problem is we were made to think and make choices. Man chooses one or the other, good or evil. We make your own way in this earthly life. Thus, we are all to be judged by a higher authority.

    Oh yes, for the record, God does not hate, He is omnipotent and we are to follow his guidelines. It grieves him to lose one of his sheep.

    To answer Mr. Stanley, if one has belonged to a church all his life, that person should know his Bible well enough to realize that to ask a minister to disregard his vows to God to perform a ceremony for persons of the same sex is to ask that minister to sin for him and is a selfish act. There is always the JP at city hall who can marry them. However, It is the hope of the church that you continue to come as eventually, you may read the passages that denounce those actions. There is hope for all!

    Just my opinion only.

  9. Max, I’m in favor of churches not being compelled to marry them, perhaps you misunderstood me. Peace to you too.

  11. Alain,
    Here’s some reading material for you.
    Please note the trend. Pastor – child.

  14. Alain,
    “This is more progaypediphile propaganda.”
    … Thus explains the Roman Catholic Church.

    Thanks for that.

  15. Myra,
    “The church is not our house it is God’s.”
    … Perhaps this is why Peter instructs Romans to stop the fornicating on the alter. After all, fornication is best under wraps.

  16. You know that you have created God in your own image when your God hates the same people you do.

  17. Myra,
    Is God omnipotent? Does God create trash?
    Just read Genesis. What God made. You and me.
    I don’t believe God makes trash, people do.
    God knew when he created you, what God was making.
    I believe God feels the same way about me.
    “God who considers homosexuality wrong…”
    Who made the homosexual, flesh?
    Is God’s creation good, as the Bible says, or is it partly trash?

  19. Alain, There is a big difference between the relationship of consenting adults and the relationship between an adult and a child that cannot give consent.

    Elaine, Great video.

    OT, Police entered a bar with a racially mixed clientele, created a situation and escalated it, brutally beating some of the patrons. The speech to the Troy city council by the bar owner is extremely powerful.

  20. Oh, lets stop the obloquy – it is really about money & sticking it to the single person to pay higher taxes.
