The atlantic is as interesting to read as the Minneapolis phone book.
I'm sure the do. Some of them are Democrats, some of them are Socialist Worker's Party, some of them are Greens. Some of them are ELCA, some are CINO's and some are atheists. Some of them are high school teachers and some are lawyers.
Most of them went along with the ELCA when they needed to sponsor black Somali Muslims to colonize America, but were nowhere to be found when black Darfur Christians needed help.
Occasionally one is prompted to wonder what might be the average IQ of the common or garden variety American suburb.
As a lot of so called Christians voted for Barack Hussein for the Presidency.If my wife were to campaign for the fraud and anti-Christian State recognition or elevation of fornication,adultery, and prostitution to the status of marriage equality-— I would consider such an annulment of the marriage vow. Until someone more wise than I can show me in the Sacred texts—or in the earlier law in America where this blasphemy ought be sanctioned by any State I will continue to oppose the dilution of “marriage”.If two people of the same sex can be “married” in the eyes of the State?—
WHY can’t a child marry his fathers wife? Why can’t a man
divorce his wife— and marry his dog— or his Television set? Why can’t some dirty old man marry the young boy entrusted to his care ,as a Coach? Why cant a man have two wives or twenty?Why can’t a five year old girl marry a prophet or warlord? “Legislation based upon the basis of the idea of the family,as consisting in and springing from the union for life of one man and one woman in the Holy estate of matrimony;...’ US supreme Court Murphy v. Ramsey and Others 144 US 15,45 (1885) I can agree with -any other lay opinion I cannot. Moses(Genesis) Jesus( Matthew) and the Apostle Paul( 1 Corinthians) all spoke of “marriage” as between one man and one woman—as did James Wilson in the founding era (College of Philadelphia,Lectures on American Law) and the US supreme Court ,(1885) what a shame to throw all that away for the false promise of peace,and happiness.
Church ladies? Have they also forgotten God and the beauty of His wisdom?
“...Church ladies...”?
How about “meddlesome shrews”? (I’m being kind.)
It is probably going to be much closer than NC, I think.
Freegards
“...come from different political parties.”
Democrat,Marxist,Socialist,Communist,Black Panther, etc.
But, there is one common thread here...they’re all stupid
liberals!
I don’t get it. Gays and lesbians have the same right to marry as I do.
They just don’t like that right.
eff um and their special rights.
They are not Christians and will face that reality when they face HIM.

What this propaganda piece doesn’t tell you is that there is a much more populist — and no less determined — grass-roots effort to see this amendment passed. Never believe that the pro-homos are the only ones at work.
Interesting. So do any of these church ladies READ THE BIBLE?
I tell you, the way the media is hyping how much the people of Minnesota apparently LOVE sodomy, you wonder how the hell the measure got on the ballot.
I find their self-identification as "Christians" to be laughable. I realize some passages in the Bible are read a bit murky, but the references to homosexuality are quite clear:
Genesis 2:24(ESV)
24 Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.
Matthew 19:4-6 ESV
He answered, “Have you not read that he who created them from the beginning made them male and female, and said, ‘Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh’? So they are no longer two but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let not man separate.”
Leviticus 18:22 ESV
You shall not lie with a male as with a woman; it is an abomination.
1 Corinthians 6:9-10 ESV
Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexuality, nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
Romans 1:26-28 ESV
For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature; and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error. And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a debased mind to do what ought not to be done.
So... take your chances, ladies... but know what you're mocking.
“Launch” and “Crusade”?.....what a filthy little warmonger she is. Probably wears GI Joe jammies.
My militant lesbian cousin lives in Minnesota.
Her latest outage is that the bank doesn’t recognize her “marriage” and won’t give them a loan. The bank even told them to go ahead and get the legal civil partnership and they will give them the loan.
Instead they’ve chosen to go without the house and throw the tantrum as usual.
The author 'forgot' to mention that all other states have passed this ban (albeit the self-appointed gods in black robes, or legislatures, have often squelched the will of the people), including California (twice) which, face it, really has the gayest city in the universe...
Oh, please. What nonsense. Of course, it’s The Atlantic.
Where are the stories about church ladies standing up and defending traditional marriage? Hmmm? Could it be Satan is behind The Atlantic?
The Minneapolis suburbs of Minnetonka and Eden Prairie are hardly representative of small towns in what is referred to as “outstate” Minnesota, which includes everything outside the Minneapolis /St. Paul metro area. Minnetonka especially is an enclave of Birkenstock wearing, Volvo driving liberals that has very little in common with true small communities like Sleepy Eye, Pipestone, Backous, Ely or even more blue collar suburbs of the metro area. My bet is the vote to ban gay marriage will pass with large support from voters in outstate Minnesota.
