“Conservative religious people need to get their own act together regarding sex related matters and develop an authentic spiritual life so they are enabled to humbly and peacefully resist the evil tyranny which will follow the legalization of gay marriage.”

Probably that is what is going to eventually happen, religious groups will ignore the civil authorities and their impossible definitions of marriage, and just take whatever punishment the state imposes for disagreeing with its current definition of marriage. Probably should have happened long ago. Now a great number are simply conditioned to think the state defines marriage, so they accept whatever the state comes up with at the time as possible and legitimate. But for many the state’s take has been wrong for centuries, for many more since it came up with no-fault divorce, and now ‘gay marriage.’ To the state in the modern era all marriage has ever been is a civil contract that can be broken and resumed between any parties the state allows for.

I find this situation difficult because I see a lot of anger out there about it.

I don’t agree with gay marriage but the elites have made their decision so to speak and something more disconcerting is on my mind.

The tyranny as in prosecution and persecution of people for opposing gay marriage is becoming more and more obvious as the legalization comes into force.

LGBT activists are angry and bitter over real and imagined wrongs done to them and they want payback.

THERE IS A DEEP PROBLEM AMONG RELIGIOUSLY CONSERVATIVE PEOPLE. SOME THINK THE REPUBLICAN PARTY WILL SAVE THEM, NOT GOD. THE POLITICIANS HAVE SOLD OUT AND THE GOP WILL DO NOTHING TO STOP GAY MARRIAGE OR THE TRYANNY THAT IS COMING WITH IT.

BUT BEYOND THE POLITICS, I KEEP ON READING STORIES ABOUT WRONGDOING INVOLVING CLERGY OR LEADERS OF VARIOUS CHURCHES.

SOMETIMES ITS MONEY BUT A LOT OF TIMES ITS ABOUT SEX. THE BIBLE PREACHER OR YOUTH LEADER ASKS YOUNG GIRLS IN THE CHURCH FOR EXPLICIT (DIRTY) PICTURES. THE PASTOR IS HAVING SEX RELATIONS WITH VARIOUS PEOPLE AND SO ON.

FIGHTING WITH GAY PEOPLE ABOUT THEIR SEXUAL MISCONDUCT DISTRACTS CONSERVATIVE RELIGIOUS PEOPLE FROM DEALING WITH THEIR OWN SEXUAL MISCONDUCT WHICH WILL SOONER OR LATER CATCH UP WITH THEM.

Conservative religious people need to clean up their own backyard about sex.

Meanwhile all good Americans regardless of religion need to stand up to the un-American actions coming from courts that are on the side of tyranny and promote tyranny like their gay marriage decisions.
