Some will thrive when that time comes. Especially if homosexuality is not part of their "core message."

The goal of Ø’s weathermen mentors was to wipe out a good chunk of population. This goes hand in hand with lots of items on their agenda, like abortion - kill marriage, diminish kid making, lower the native population (and make room for the turd world to move in).
But not from the pulpit.
Is he less guilty of religious persecution than Thomas Moore?
I love it...splitting hairs with an axe!!!!!
Huh?
Jail time?
Pagans and socialists have a long and sordid history of KILLING Christians. And that's exactly where I think this is headed.

A very high percentage of churches would fail just on the basis of the current property tax bill. This is a no go.
“Do you really think it will stop at the revocation of tax exempt status? Next up? Jail time for those who preach against it.”
I fully expect the gov to harass churches in the same way they do white racist groups, via the IRS. They will be financially bullied, probably like they were during Roman times. The gov can’t do much about what people get up and say, at least not yet.
Consider the opposite. Suppose SCOTUS rules to keep the traditional definition of marriage. Would tax-exempt gay organizations loose their tax status?
I doubt it.
Yes, even “from the pulpit”.
He could give one full sermon on
“Vote for Ted Cruz because he’s a Christian”
and have to pay for 1/52nd of the church’s income in taxes for the year.
As long as they keep winning the attack on Christianity as it has been understood for 2000 years will not stop. Even when they lose it will not stop.
As I have always said, they never wanted to increase freedom. They have always sought to turn our values upside-down. Good is evil and evil is good. There are fewer people in the approved group now and more people in the disapproved group. That there are some in and some out is still the same. The ideas behind each side of the argument are not compatible. Up is not down and down is not up no matter how much someone wants to claim it works both ways so as not hurt the feelings of those promoting error.
gee... never saw this coming
oh wait, i did. like 10 years ago...
One things for sure, if this lawlessness continues unabated, the day will come when patriots are going to take a stand and demand a return to law and order. No one even knows what happened to the man who was arrested and died. The thugs don’t give a crap about him anyway. They have been given another opportunity to kill, steal, and destroy, just like the one who drives them. When the devil comes in like a flood, it’s time to raise a standard against him.
I think you’re right.
The Justices often use questions to help push their colleagues one way or another. Kennedy, and to a lesser extent Roberts, are fence-sitters on this.
The Justices also aren’t immune from seeing what’s going on outside the Supreme Court Building. I think it unlikely that they are unaware of the various Christian small businesses that are being targeted.
So cue the Star Wars squid with the “Its a Trap!” quotation.
It would be, IMHO, poetic justice if Progressive overreach on this part of the issue pushes Kennedy and Roberts towards a more restrained decision than would otherwise have been the case.
It also takes them out of the church school environment earlier and gives goverment schools two more years to indoctrinate them.
A million Mount Carmel’s is what they want.
This Supreme Court hearing is a sham and any ruling in favor of mandatory acceptance of sodomy is arguably void on its face.
First: No federal court has jurisdiction to judge marriage as marriage is neither a right nor a privilege. For proof of this fact try to marry your adult sibling. As such its not covered under the 14th’s jurisdiction, nor is it a civil rights claim.
Second: Marriage is an establishment of religion. The First Amendment bars the government from changing it.
Third: Kagan and Ginsberg by publicly advocating for forced public acceptance of sodomy have demonstrated a bias as well as conflict of interest requiring them to recuse themselves from the case. They have not done so.
The absence of the forgoing arguments in front of the court and the refusal to recuse themselves by the two who have shown the most conflict of interest in the case are proof the hearing today is a sham.
From the way Islam is treated in our courts, it is tantamount to a state religion.
