Okay, folks, please make note:

1- Some civility needs to be restored to this thread, okay? --That's June's way of saying "Keep it on topic and knock off the insults!" Discussion is okay. Debating (civilly) is also okay. However: insults, baiting, flaming? ~Not so much.

2- It's a Friday, it's nearly the weekend, and it's up to all of you whether or not June has to close, or end up imposing "TOS Morality" in this one.

Okay?


~Thanks, and Happy Friday!

No I did not lie because the constitution does say something about marriage.

What does sharia law have to do with the Bible?

You may not have lied, but you are definitely mistaken. Those opposed to gay marriage began to urge that an amendment to the Constitution be created to define marriage as being between a man and a woman only.
No amendment was made, so in the absence of any such amendment, marriage is not mentioned in the Constitution at any point.

So Phazelwood was incorrect with article 4? Honestly I am merely working from memory and I could be mistaken.

Usury is a big one!

God hated it!!!!


America was built on Usury and we are supposed to be a Christian nation?

What were Sodom's crimes again??????

What religious belief would you like to apply in a legal perspective to other U.S. citizens thus taking away their rights?

Thanks in advance for your response.
I'd legislate against male temple prostitutes being used in ritual sex practices to worship Canaanite and Roman fertility gods so they would make crops more abundant.
