No matter what happens, we need to remember God is on the throne. He is in control and is sovereign. There are ways to outsmart the devil. One of them being using his own tactics against him. We're going to have to start being one step above and start seeking legal action for businesses that refuse to pander to our beliefs.
But did he decorate any of them to commemorate a sinful lifestyle and a mockery of marriage?
Let's see....the lifestyle of the gays and lesbians I know is going to work, coming home, paying taxes, washing the car, going to a ballgame, picking up the dry cleaning.......not sure where the sin is Viz but, if you've been affected by a lifestyle you think is sinful....here's your chance to tell us all about your experience with marriage equality.
Examples pulled from your guru's website are not acceptable. Tell everyone how two gay men making a commitment to each other makes a mockery of your marriage.
M-kay? Thanks.
p.s. At the rate fundamentalists throw rocks on these threads...ya'll are going to need Tommy John surgery soon.

So instead you think that it's better to step on religious people's rights?
No...we really didn't. You need to make that case that sexual preferences = skin color. I haven't seen anything to prove that. Instead of acting bigoted toward people that disagree with you, why don't you address that question?
I did, for all the non readers I will say again---
NO ONE HAS STEPPED ON ANYONE'S RIGHT TO W O R S H I P as they please.
The idea that equality takes away or reduces any one's religious freedom is not possible.
People still go to the church of their choice, sing the same old standards and even tell a few off color jokes about their Samaritan neighbors.
At no time has RELIGIOUS FREEDOM ever been threatened by EQUALITY. Jesus never said go forth and be an IDIOT and condemn all manner of people because they do not walk like you, talk like you, eat like you or LOVE like you..Please quote chapter and verse if He did say this (because if it isn't written it ain't a fundie truth)--
WAIT--here is the entire problem..It is NOT written in PLAIN KING JAMES ENGLISH so it will never be true in the eyes of the blind.
There will be peace when we stop demanding others CONVERT to our way of thinking and just accept the fact that EVERYONE has the right to live as they see fit--provide there is no attempts made to OPPRESS, COERCE or FORCEFULLY HARM others against their will...
I'll make you a wedding cake & charge you a reasonable price. I'll decorate it nicely & write Congratulations! on it.
I will NOT write Bob & Fred or Jill & Jane on it. I will NOT put two men or two women on the top of the wedding cake. If that's unacceptable, take your business elsewhere!
Depending on where you live that might not be legal. Even if it isn't legal in today's day and age it isn't smart to do. It's much easier to lose business compared to the past due to the influence of social media.
