Why I’m Scared (Fr. Longenecker weighs in on today's SCOTUS ruling)

Pat Robertson on gay marriage

In history there's never been a civilization ever in history that has embraced homosexuality and turned away from traditional fidelity, traditional marriage, traditional child-rearing, and has survived. There isn't one single civilization that has survived that openly embraced homosexuality. So you say, "what's going to happen to America?" Well if history is any guide, the same thing's going to happen to us.

Look for revolt to happen down the road, it is coming.

[Thane_Banquo]

I’m scared because I think that rage is not going to remain behind the mask of nice-ness for long. We’re seeing that demonic rage lurking beneath the surface beginning to emerge, and when it does take cover.

Take cover, re-group, and return fire.

"For our battle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the world powers of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavens." --Eph. 6:12

[longfellowsmuse]

Lord deliver us from evil... please hurry.

[Thane_Banquo]

Look for revolt to happen down the road, it is coming.

Indeed.

I don't blame him for being scared. Obama's statement was chilling: "How religious institutions define and consecrate marriage has always been up to those institutions." That's freedom to define the faith not freedom to live it in public. Did Catholic adoption agencies close because of the Church's definition of marriage or because they were forced to accept the government's definition? I didn't see anything in his statement that bodes well for religious freedom.

"Did Catholic adoption agencies close because of the Church's definition of marriage or because they were forced to accept the government's definition? "

Good Point. I didn't see anything in Obama's statement that said he was going to try to impose anything on the church's. But you just pointed out that they already have.

There is nothing so evil and Demonic as sodomizing others. It is truly something to be feared it is so dehumanizing and mocks God’s Design,

It has always been homosexuals who can kill/mutilate women and children and have no conscience like the Samurai/Brownshirts/Bolsheviks/Afghanis-—and like Jeffrey Dalmer and the Serial Killers like John Gacy. They eject all morality and hate women and use children. They habituate dehumanization.

Rudyard Kipling, (and others through history) saw this coming a century ago:

...

On the first Feminian Sandstones we were promised the Fuller Life
(Which started by loving our neighbour and ended by loving his wife)
Till our women had no more children and the men lost reason and faith,
And the Gods of the Copybook Headings said: "The Wages of Sin is Death."

...

As it will be in the future, it was at the birth of Man
There are only four things certain since Social Progress began.
That the Dog returns to his Vomit and the Sow returns to her Mire,
And the burnt Fool's bandaged finger goes wabbling back to the Fire;

And that after this is accomplished, and the brave new world begins
When all men are paid for existing and no man must pay for his sins,
As surely as Water will wet us, as surely as Fire will burn,
The Gods of the Copybook Headings with terror and slaughter return!

Revolt is coming.

[PeevedPatriot]

I didn't see anything in Obama's statement that said he was going to try to impose anything on the church

He said Obamacare wasn't going to do most of the things it's doing either. I tend to believe very little of what he says.

Even if I were to give him the benefit of the doubt, there are gay activists ready and waiting to take this ruling and run with it.

[DuncanWaring]

Too late for that; there is much unpleasantness that lies ahead, no matter what anyone does or doesn’t do.

[DuncanWaring]

They bully you with a phoney nice-ness, but underneath is a simmering rage.

We’re now in the endgame of Antonio Gramsci’s and Saul Alinsky's heirs and disciples. These are the murderous great-great-great-great-grandchildren of the French Revolution, cold-eyed with contempt for you and yours; spiral-eyed crazy with hate for what you believe in and possessed of that utterly unappeasable appetite for controlling mankind.

Just as Hitler was completely candid in "Mein Kampf" about what he intended to do with Germany, the Jews and the world, so the Progressive Left has been completely up front about where they intend to take America, how they've planned to do it and what they're going to do once they get there.

So, when it comes to the Constitution and rule of law, it’s only a game - and when they're tired of it, they’ll not only sweep the pieces off the board, they’ll upend the table and put a bullet in you while they’re at it. As far as so-called 'progressives' are concerned, rules are for losers and history - god-awful bloody history - is my witness.

Take a good long look at what’s happening now in America. Then turn around and take another look. If what they're saying doesn't square with what they're doing; if it looks like there's an concerted effort to destroy our once Constitutional Republic and replace it with... something else - then you're probably right. None of what's happening today makes any sense unless you look at it that way - and then it makes a perfectly clear and terrible sort of sense, doesn't it?

You’ve got to understand that you're not going to talk or vote your way out of the tyranny that’s coming your way. And that’s precisely the point of tyranny, isn’t it?

You’ve got understand that the people who've now gotten their hands on the apparatus of the American State would rather rule in Hell than live in peace with the rest of us. They will happily reduce Western civilization to stinking pile of rubble and corpses as long as they believe that they will be the ones sitting on top of the ruins. Why? Because a free and prosperous people cannot be enslaved. They must be broken first.

God will either let Sodom and Gomorrah off the hook or judge America harshly...

[Secret Agent Man]

if you’ve ever rejected a gay person on any aspect of their homosexuality, you have seen just how thin the veneer of fake niceness is.

[Secret Agent Man]

toss the nazis in there too - read the pink swastika...

[Secret Agent Man]

we have been judged the last 4 years wih this pigsh1t foreign president.

[Repulican Donkey]

Folks, the American Catholic Church waved the white flag to Progressive Politics long ago. There are a few bishops who are still Roman Catholic first, but most them - Dolan most prominently - pay lip service to church dogma. The bishops want immigant amnesty and will knuckle under on everything else - abortion, homosexuality and, soon, euthanasia. When Sibelius, who claims to be RC, played one woman death panel the bishops’ response was CRICKETS! When Crazy Nancy calls abortion “sacred ground” and issues a public statement redefining what Roman Catholic means - more Crickets! Stop expecting anything heroic from either pastors or politicians. It ain’t gonna happen!
