Free Republic

They're your problem now, Our state finally has a chance to grow and become a decent place to live now that the "downtrodden, crime infested, refugees are infecting new and previously safe parts of the country. Calloused? Yeah, you bet I am, I lived in N.O. and had to move out in order to raise a family in a safe environment. I hope they stay away forever.

"Further, in comparison with the large number of biblical texts on wealth, poverty, greed and possessions, there is comparatively little on homosexuality."

Nor did our Founding Fathers see the demolition of all Godly things from the halls of government, Nor did they see abortion as a human right, gay marraige as a legitimate institution.

It is so rediculous to assume that anyone today would purport that anyone in the future would actually condone pediphillic relations, bestial relations or any other Godless abomination as it is not in our thoughts or actions.

Praise be that the first century apostles and disciples spoke little on this issue, they were too busy running for their lives from the persecution of the Roman Empire to entertain the improbable issues of gay-homosexual-anything.

Not on their radar, shouldn't be on ours.

Baton Rouge Kat Country has been notified. Wilco

Reverend of what? his own filthy lucre. How does a man of this nature ever get anywhere in this world. How is it allowed to happen? Amazing and disgusting. Republicans are no different, everyone is open to graft and corruption, The GOP just does a better job when this stuff is exposed, by doing the right thing and dumping the problem, The Democrats just give him more air time. Amazing. Do you really think Bill Cosby is going to go on tour with him? Yeah, right

IF you don't know there is a problem, how can you possibly fix it, If you don't ever get beyond yourself how will you ever know a Saviour? Every problem the left has is formed in an egocentric vacuum. Everything learned is vicarious, nothing is touched, only hypothesized. They really don't experience anything other self aggrandizement. Jonah swallowed the whale on this one, great job.

This is what the LEFT brings us, disaster, in order to try to master nature, they destroy it, sound familiar, in order to solve poverty, they hood people on government, in order to fix anything, throw money at it and never look at the long term effects. Does the LEFT ever consider anything beyond tomorrow?

What on earth do you have to do to get Life in prison? Kill a Moslem?

If this isn't the most transparent explanation of exactly what the LEFT wants...to keep all information and its dissemination controlled by the LEFT, then there was never a one. How scared is the fifth estate on losing the mind control they so desperately cling to. THE GIG IS UP. We didn't have to pay 100K for a degree from Columbia to know what the hell superscript was! You sir, deserve a refund.

1. Homosexuality is a personal choice, the conscience decision to not abide by 'rites' as you call it, of those who gave up their desires for God's will, not personal will.

2. Therefore, Homosexuality, or the worship of a persons desires vs. the active will of God, is not comparable to actual worshiping Christians nor could any person devoid of a personal Saviour, even acknowledge the difference. Your diatribe is one more in a long line of unbelievers trying desperately to define what you only know vicariously, you have no idea of what you are talking about. Rites and ritual have nothing to do with Christianity, having a personal relationship with Jesus is what being a Christian is all about. Rites, and rituals may help bind us traditionally, but they have no meaning if the people doing the rituals aren't bound by the blood of Jesus, the cross and justification by faith. There is no justification, no redemption without repentance. There is no more evidence available on man's lack of redemption and repentance than to see the queer nation wanting to have it their way.

3. I didn't define the argument, the rules, or the manner of redemption. That was God's decision. IF you think that He doesn't mean what He says, then go on and do your own thing. Just don't try to ramrod YOUR GOD or YOUR BELIEFS down the throats of millions who received HIM and gave up their own free will. That is something you will never understand.

No one is keeping you from doing what's right in your mind, you have no right whatsoever to try to break apart the bonds that we have forged from Calvary. Go start your own queer cult of pseudo-salvation. and take what ever verses out of the bible that you don't like. We'll both get judged, we'll both get what we deserve. We just don't have to be judged side by side. I still have the right of association, and I also have the right to use judgement as God gave me wisdom to know what is life and what is foolishness. Your wanting to force me into a relationship with unrepentant homosexuals is no different than forcing my kids on a bus driven by an alcoholic. It may be natural to get drunk and enjoy every pleasure the body can offer, you have no right to make me join in. What comes natural is not what comes spiritual. Civilization is not built on natural law, it is built on a higher standard. If you want to live in the barnyard, go ahead, as for me and my house, we will worship, and obey the LORD. Good luck on your new religion. You'll never change mine.

The Greatest Man in the World just made his last jump. What a legacy to have men like this in our lives. My father landed at Normandy had 5 battle stars and never talked about it. Just DID IT. Please accept my sympathies as we are now the front line and have to pick up the mantle and lead this country. God bless you and your family at this time of grief and a celebration of a life well lived.
