You suppose they have an inquisition for the people who cheat on their taxes? Or who don't pay their parking tickets?

I am not the police for all the wrongs, people must take a stand for themselves and tell those who would bully them that nothing will change their determination and resolve to continue, no matter what path they are on.

I have not donated any money to any LGBTQ organization that made threats against her, her father, or business and I will not financially support any groups that would make threats.

Or vote to cut school funding? and elect politicians that take health care away from 2-3 million Americans? Or watch porn on pay for view? Or cash their welfare checks while demanding others get reduced benefits? or hang out in public restroom stalls looking for a date?

Would He approve a pro-gun rally in a house of worship? No.

Anti-immigration rally? No

Pro-abortion rally? No

Pro-gay rally? No.

Such things do not belong in the house of worship. Whether or not you see gay marriage as an "equality" issue is irrelevant. That is your personal opinion. House of worship is not the place for political rallies.
NEITHER does talk about POLITICS and elected officials. The church has ZERO responsibility to endorse an ISSUE or a CANDIDATE..

Don't you agree?

Actually, I think those first two are required for membership at the First Church of the Holier Than Thou.

typical of liberal shallowness .... having the gall to quote the Bible when they find it as a gotcha while in reality despising it.

I see you behind all that supposed love, peace and can't we just get along song and dance

Nope. That's not what I said at all.

I guess you could ask the wife to sit between the cheating husband and his lover and they can all hold hands.

I am sorry you didn't get it.

Who will God bless:

He, who does what he thinks is right in the eyes of God?
or
He, who calls people bigots for doing what they think is right in the eyes of God?

Everyone knows the answer. No one will be blessed for attacking someone who thinks is doing the will of God.

And where does a person falls if they break the law in order to impose their religious views upon others? Sure a person can always find another business but if that is the case then there should be no laws against discrimination as the person being discriminated can always find someone some place that may provide them with service or sell them a product. Which laws should pertain to Christians and which ones not? Are not businesses a secular activity and if so are they nor required to obey secular laws and regulations? And I think you may be surprised that not all will come to the same conclusion to your question (and I mean Christians not non beleivers).

I have not gone through your posts but I do hope that you have never used words agtainst the LBGT people either. In looking back at the stories of the Muslim cab drivers they certainly were not given the same support for attempting to follow their religious views that the shop owners were, in fact the citizens were pretty hostile towards them in the comments made such as telling them to go back home and to not let their religion have any say in who they are willing to take as passengers.

Don't you realize how "politically incorrect" it is to have Christian values?!! Agreeing with God is WRONG in our idiotic, oversensitive society. I know- everytime I agree with Him on this website, I catch hell. Better to catch it now than to go there for eternity.

Why not ask your Mom for a glass of warm milk and a cookie and then snuggle under your fave blankie for a nice nap?
