You are exactly right and people need to separate their feelings concerning the personal relationships with people who lead a lgbt lifestyle from the reality of the corrupt lgbt cause. The left wing propaganda and brainwashing media machine has pushed the idea that one can not disagree with the lgbt cause without hating the lgbt people which is crazy. I disagree with smokers whether its is cigarettes or otherwise and yet I don’t hate smokers yet if they were running campaigns in schools to promote smoking to kids I’d be just as opposed as I am to lgbt activism which seeks to deconstruct gender and put in place a system of lgbt politically correct thought police to stamp out or at a minimum silence any dissent.

The LGBT argument is a unreasoned one built as a direct attack on personally responsibility concerning sex. The primary fiction they assert is that they are “born that way” as if human beings can not be expected nor have the capacity to control their sexual behavior. This has provided false comfort to those who would otherwise fear the corruption of their children it also assuages the guilt of those who lent a blind eye to abuse of their children which contributed to their sexual choices. The real horror is that logical conclusion has further implications. If you embrace the idea that they were “born” that way then it becomes inescapable that others categories must be view through that clouded lens. Adulterers, rapists, pedophiles, and the laundry list of other sexual moral failings and crimes suddenly become at a minimum disabilities and the worst normed as the stigma becomes reduced.

LGBT activism is a cancer on the culture and a symptom of a wider deterioration of the ability to reason in a have it now take no responsibility society. It is also an attack on freewill which is the cornerstore of liberty without which civil rights in the constitutional sense don’t even make sense but that is at the heart of socialism the idea that people can not possibly make it on their own and overcome their birth conditions which is a demonstrable fiction but for those who are losing it is very seductive. The idea of a big Daddy and Mommy state in Washington DC making everything fair and fixing their slights and booboos. This is what the Democrat party counts on which is why none of their proposed “solutions” involve really trying to get people permanently off the system or asking them to really change and take responsibility for their lives.

If the argument follows it’s intended course, and churches lose their tax exempt status, then render to coin with Caesar’s likeness unto Caesar. Don’t fall into the money trap.

All part of the Great Unraveling:
That which has been defined has now been redefined.

Our definitions, our symbols, our standards, our ideals, etc., all undermined and redefined. Up for down, good for bad.

All because we lost sight of, then cut ties with, the One; this time to chase a zero.

And on this test, it is a zero we shall have.

This raises the question; Where in our constitution does it say that churches loose their right to have political opinion?

Personally I don't think it is constitutional that they do.

“No, it’s about sin and satan perverting God’s holy will for HIS creation.”

He has been deceiving people(since the beginning)into exchanging “love” for a “Lie”. The same way he counterfeits “Sunday” as the sabbath day of ‘worship’...for folks who patronize the secular churches. If we take a closer look at the life we are living, we can find numerous things that Satan has counterfeited, and continues to do so in his attempt to fervently establish his kingdom.

When we do take that ‘closer look’, and once God lifts our ‘spiritual veil’ and allows us to “see” the world as it REALLY IS, we come to find that this life has been nothing but a LIE. Satan masquerades as an ‘angel of light’...therefore can easily deceive us if we don’t stay close to God, and remain sober and vigilant.

Satan is the most miserable POS out there too. He hates everyone, even the sinners, and wants sinners to be stuck in sin to be stuck in the cyclical misery of it all. He knows he is screwed, he also knows his time is running out, so he is pushing his way like never before. Second, turning away from God weakens intellect. Take a look at issues such as Ebola in the U.S.. If anyone had the slightest bit of common medical sense, they would have forced with extreme precaution a serious containment protocol so that everyone in the U.S. with it would be contained and whatever ebola we had would run its course. Instead, we have a bunch of fools, and as additional days go by, it appears all the more likely that ebola will take a large toll on the U.S. because they haven’t bothered controlling travel to/from disease zones, and don’t strictly force containment on people who treat the infected. Plus, then there is the stupid fever test, where it won’t detect people sick in the early stages. I could go on and on, but I am sure you get the point. We rejected the good ways in accordance in with God’s ways and society gets dumbed down as a result
