Obama Warns Christians: Gay Rights More Important Than Religious Freedom
Breitbart ^ | 9/27/2015 | Charlie Spiering

Posted on 09/28/2015 7:43:26 AM PDT by BlackFemaleArmyColonel

As Pope Francis flew back to Rome, President Obama issued a stern warning to Christians, warning them their attempts to assert their religious liberty to oppose gay rights would fail. “We affirm that we cherish our religious freedom and are profoundly respectful of religious traditions,” he insisted during a dramatic speech at a LGTB fundraiser in New York City on Sunday night, praising the progress made on gay rights under his administration. “But we also have to say clearly that our religious freedom doesn’t grant us the freedom to deny our fellow Americans their constitutional rights.” The fundraiser for the Democratic National Committee was specifically billed as an “LGBT gala” held in New York City in coordination with Obama’s trip to the United Nations Assembly. During his speech, Obama asserted that his administration was respecting what he described as “genuine concerns” of religious institutions but suggested that Republicans were using the issue just to earn more votes, as they did in 2004. “America has left the leaders of the Republican Party behind,” he declared proudly. He ridiculed Ben Carson for suggesting that “prison turns you gay” and added that another Republican candidate had boasted of his introduction of a constitutional amendment to ban same-sex marriage, likely referring to Sen. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX).

We can blame the SC as much, if not more than, Hussein on this one. He wouldn’t be able to go around making such ridiculous, unconstitutional statements if they hadn’t borne him up with their comletely unconstitutional ruling-thinking that they can overrule God and all of mankind’s history regarding the meaning of marriage. Once they did that, in all their rebellious arrogance, what did anyone think Hussein would do, preening around like they just declared him to be God? When he is thrown into the abyss where the fire is not quenched, to share eternity with the first being who tried to overrule his Creator, they will be there too.

Obama is wrong and needs lots of prayers.

“But we also have to say clearly that our religious freedom doesn’t grant us the freedom to deny our fellow Americans their constitutional rights.”

The right to “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness” means something quite different to sexual deviants, rapists, murderers and all manner of evil doers. It seems that the President of the United States has become a staunch advocate of all of them. What he’s actually saying is that there will be no law that interferes with personal gratification, whatever that may entail. Christianity is the basis for all of America’s laws. Obama has been pretty successful in rendering them and Christianity “unconstitutional.”

....he insisted during a dramatic speech at a LGTB fundraiser in New York City on Sunday night, praising the progress made on gay rights under his administration.

I can hardly imagine the level of perversion, sickness and mental illness in this one gathering of freaks...

I'm sure Obama felt right at home...probably hooked up as well..

The really sad part is most of all these people attending are profoundly broken human beings and miserable.

Granting special gay rights will not fix what is broken within their tortured souls...

Show me where in the Constitution it says one word about gays or marriage...

I can definitely point out where my freedom to exercise my religion is guaranteed!

One can engage in sodomy to one’s heart’s content.

That doesn’t mean I have to bake you a cake, take your picture, or call you a decent person. (I don’t mean you, personally, of course)

Religious liberty as defined by the Left is as follows: “Congregate in your buildings for your worship, but don’t you dare exercise your faith in public—unless you’re muslims—or its off to jail you go. If you want to keep that tidbit we’re throwing you, you’d better comply with our demands”.

“freedom doesn’t grant us the freedom to deny our fellow Americans their constitutional rights”

Thanks the SCOTUS for that.

I believe when the Founding Fathers called for a natural born American to be President they actually meant a person who is Culturally American.

Obama is culturally an Indonesian raised moslem.

According to Obama, it does; you have to get with the program.

We need people who care enough to tell these miserable souls what they will first probably hate to hear, that there is a better way to look at life.

Exactly. Homosexuality was never seen as an “inalienable right “. Why does he think we had Sodomy laws on the books for over 200 years?

I believe he was misquoted. What he actually said was:

"My Gay Rights More Important Than Religious Freedom."
