Constitutional Ammendment against divorce?? ZOT-TOO LAME FOR CHAT!!

Posted on 03/08/2004 8:35:49 AM PST by jimjones316

Jesus spoke out against divorce, but I can't recall any talk of gays from him himself. Therefore, why is no one trying to outlaw divorce? I'm sure most can agree that in most cases it is morally repulsive, therefore why is it legal? because it is a freedom issue, bottom line. Barry Goldwater would be rolling over in his grave to see REPUBLICANS, the party of freedom, wanting to put restrictive clauses in the constitution, a document that was concieved to GUARANTEE freedoms, not restrict them. I think America needs to just grow up a bit and hopefully these so called "republicans" can remember what it means to be a conservative: some one who wants to let people lead their own lives and for the government to stay out of people's lives.

Hmm..
So just because he didn't go over all the Levitical laws governing propriety in sexual relationships means it's okay to marry your sister, your aunt, or have relations with goats?

5 posts to your name, four on October 31 2003 when you signed up, and then this one.
Your argument is specious at best.

Freedom? How about process and rule of law?

Judicial tyranny is the issue, not homosexual marriage. The American people have expressed their opinion on homosexual marriage through the representative republic we have int his country (see the defense of marriage bill) which is being flagrantly ignored and overturned by the most unaccountable branch of our government, the judiciary.

If homosexuals want to legalize their marriages do it through the system we have, don't lean on activist judges to usurp the power of the people.

The only remedy left is a constitutional ban, and even that may not stop these activists, but it is the only option the majority in the U.S. has.

Yes.
He tries to explain it in one of his original posts back in October.
But it reads to me like BS.

Well, considering the nature of this thread, and the old saying about first impressions....

True.
I was wrestling with the idea of flagging Admin Mod to this thread.

Well, considering that his previous four posts all occured in October last year with none since until today, that may be a long wait.

I personally agree... It's your personal life and no government should tell you what to do and not to do.

I believe, if you want to divorce someone, go ahead and do it. Otherwise, it might too late in some cases (especially where the abuse is involved)... Am I right?

Oh, yeah. I remember this poster (and peculiar screen name) from a previous thread.

The obvious answer is that immorality is immorality regardless of what century it is in.

But... considering the way the original er.. *cough* article is presented, such a question as posed by myself presents itself.
