Click the IJR link -- another church in the same county was also vandalized with pro-gay graffitti.

I genuinely think for gay marriage advocates, 90% of it is just an outlet for them to get to stick a middle finger at organized religion.
I'm not much of a social conservative and could have easily seen myself backing gay marriage on a legal level, but the people pushing it have let their mask slip and its obvious to me at least this whole debate was never about "love" or "equality".

As regards it being possibly a hoax, is there any history of non-leftists doing hoaxes like this? Isn't hoaxing one of their signature moves? Posted by: Kensington (@NYKensington) at April 16, 2015 11:56 AM (7Kbxu) 6

Once you believe that your opponents are not just wrong, but evil, you can justify anything. After all, what's a little vandalism if your target is evil? Not that leftists have much respect for property rights in the first place.

I can say for certain that "dyke" is not offensive in the LBGQQQAAAQQQ world.
I have several lesbian friends and relatives who use that word to describe themselves. Although, apparently it can be a hateful word... depending on how you say it. So I would advise caution. Posted by: mynewhandle at April 16, 2015 12:17 PM (AkOaV) 103

The gay people I know who are married are older and most have been together for decades. They want companionship and have assets they want to protect. I use to argue that there were other ways of going about it but it is more involved. Making it more difficult for them is just being dickish.

31 For even more depression in the side-bar. Judge shields GM from being sued over bad ignition switches. Hey Judge Dumas, remember the Pinto?
This comment was from the last thread. I want to inject some sanity into the "ignition switch" idiocy. GM did NOT have a faulty ignition switch. My Impala got recalled, and i brought it to the dealer. When I picked it up, I asked them what, exactly they did. The tech pointed to my key, and showed me where they filled the slot the split-ring ran through. it had a little insert added to make the slot a hole. The issue is people who dangle their entire lives from their key chain can shut off the ignition if there's enough weight on the outside of the key. So some idiot with 3 framed pictures of her kids hanging off their ignition key hits a bump, and twists the key, shutting off the ignition. Then sues GM. F'ng plaintiff's attorneys.

Yep. And I would have more respect for those arguing for gay marriage if they would just once admit that what they are asking for is not equal rights but an entirely new right.

Right. And even if your 50 pounds of bullshit weighed down the key so much that it turned the car off, ITS NOT THE END OF THE WORLD. Shift in to neutral and restart the car if you have to, or just roll over to the side of the road, put it in park, and restart your car. Then take all the bullshit off your key chain. I used to have a car that died regularly on the highway. It was a manual, so I'd just pop the clutch but... Not a big deal.

I'm not being flippant either. Civil unions addressed all the logistical elements of marriage. The ONLY thing it didn't do was push the social element, which was always the goal.

Mentally ill. SMDH.
It was billed as homophobic vandalism but a queer group has now claimed credit for the defacing of a sequined ATM. ANZ gave an Aukland ATM a glittering sequined makeover as a 'GAYTM' but by Friday someone had smothered it in pink paint, which bank describing it 'as pretty sad'. It was labelled a homophobic attack, coming just before the Auckland Pride Festival. But in an anonymous online post, a group calling themselves 'Queers Against Injustice' claimed credit for the 'pink-washing'. They claim the bank had 'co-opted' gay symbolism for commercial purposes, using them to obscure their business practices and treatment of workers. 'It is disheartening that the representation of our symbolic pinkwashing of the GAYTM has been manipulated into an act of hatred and complicity. This misrepresentation reinforces the image of tolerance that ANZ has spent a lot of money marketing to us.' Damned if you do, damned if you don't.

Which they could have received with civil unions. Had them in MA and they had all the financial protections afforded married couples. But they wanted a new right, the right for same sex marriage and the argument was always equality. Nobody had that right before, marriage was reserved for one man and one woman, period. Same sex marriage is a new right. As I said, I used to be pretty ambivalent on the topic but the methods the SJWs are using are driving me away from support. And thats on them not me.

CAIR got Oklahoma's amendment on the use of Sharia and foreign law halted by a Liberal judge on the grounds that its implementation would prevent Muslims from writing their wills in accordance with Islamic principles. Which was laughable because in Oklahoma, leftover from frontier days, you can probate a will leaving all your worldly goods to gremlins,even if it was written in crayon on a grocery sack and signed with an X--provided it was witnessed and you were of sound mind and body and your intent can be discerned.

Well, they don't like God and his church because it calls homosexuality a sin. So any opposition to the gay cult, whether from God or his servants can't be tolerated.
I never remember adulterers and other sinners vandalizing a church. But I may have missed it. They don't want acceptance. They want conformism at any cost.

Civil Unions were a perfect answer, but the reason conservatives were unable to support them was because a judge would immediately say it was a "separate, but equal" type argument and would have used that to fast track gay marriage.
So instead, the judges just decreed "Gay marriage, just because we can" even when a state like California changed their Constitution, the judges still overruled them. Posted by: McAdams at April 16, 2015 12:38 PM (Fb72h) 203
>>What do you mean by "things she identifies about herself"?
I guess what I meant was if you were to talk to her, you'd learn all sorts of things about her before her sexual orientation. There was some concern when she was being considered for the church, but it became clear upon getting to know her that this is not a big part of her identity. Hope I explained that adequately.

And they intimidate other gays in to going along with it by calling them the gay equivalent of "uncle toms" for not being with the program. So most just ignore it.

Yep, the left NEVER changes tactics, just "victim" groups. At one point, they tried to sell poor uneducated whites the "victim" status by claiming blacks were stealing their jobs and voting Republican and bringing carpet bagging yankees to take over the southland. When those whites started to become middle class, they flipped the script and went to blacks and said "you're the new victim class, at the hands of the white man." Then Hispanics. Then Gheys. And the tactics are always the same. 100 years ago, that meant the KKK to keep blacks from the voting booth and to keep carpet baggers from crossing the mason dixon.

Yet why aren't divorced people vandalizing Churches? If that's what this is really all about? And get this, there's divorced couples that regularly attend Church despite Biblical teachings. So for gay activists, if this a religion you don't believe in anyway and it's condemning an act you participate in, why do you care? Unless deep down you think there's some truth behind it?

There are individuals in my Church who feel they are homosexuals but refrain from sex because they value their relationship with God more than they value getting their rocks off (so to speak).
Rick Perry said that is what he would do if he were gay when he was asked about it in San Francisco.

>>It doesn't mean you get to treat gay people like shit. "Christians"
who think otherwise are not Christians in the strictest definition of the term.<< The fundamental principle of freedom is that individuals have personal liberty and are free to exercise that in ways which do not materially harm another person. What they want is the "freedom" to act in a certain manner and then use coercion to force others into approving that personal proclivity. There are very few thing further than individual liberty that this type of coercion and the mayhem being used to enforce it. You shouldn't treat anyone "like shit". But human nature being what it is, people do- for various reasons. I'm not condoning or rationalizing it. Just stating fact. To state that Christians, largely as a community, treat homosexuals like shit, is not anywhere close to my personal experience. In fact. it;s the opposite. Many gays don't like Christians because of the basic believe, which is part of church doctrine, that homosexuality is a sin. No amount of shaming, church vandalism, public hate, vitriol or personal attacks is going to change that. Christians have died, and still die, for their beliefs. So they are not about to change their beliefs because some clownish cult buffoons keep attacking them. Posted by: Marcus T at April 16, 2015 12:53 PM (GGCsk) 269

Prosecute the vandals and it just makes them more militant, more angry and you get more vandalism.
Don't prosecute the vandals and they believe they can get away with it, should get away with it, are entitled to get away with it, because they are justified in their vandalism, and you get more of it. It's the aggressor who makes the rules. It's a ego thing. There is no negotiation with megalomania, no appeasement is enough, any challenge results in escalation.

It's interesting to see the nature of the attacks become more aggressive as the size of the demands become more audacious. At first it was peaceful protest for civil unions. Then, it was more aggressive protest (and lots of lawfare) for marriage rights. Next, it will be outright violence for the right to be married in churches whether the congregation likes it or not.
Gays had what they said they wanted with civil unions (which I supported). But what they say they want always seems to be evolving. Posted by: joncelli at April 16, 2015 12:58 PM (RD7QR) 296

Pretty much, Sven. That's what bothers me about people who talk about Christians being more likeable. Now, I don't deny that we have self-inflicted baggage caused by our approach to the world sometimes, and we can improve that approach. But even if we were totally nice, and didn't get into personal wars with groups and but were(as a body) powerfullyfollowing Christ and had revival of the Holy Spirit in this country...well, let's just say that the problems we're seeing now would be several times worse, atleast.

Posted by: TangoNine at April 16, 2015 12:55 PM (x3YFz) TangoNine, it is pretty clear from this statement that you know very little about the Bible. The same story where Jesus said "let he who is without sin cast the first stone.", he also said, "go and sin no more". Christians are called in many, many Bible passages to discern right from wrong and righteousness from sin. We are called not only to police ourselves but other believers also lest any fall from God's path. We are called to teach sound doctrine and cautioned that "but whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to stumble (fall into sin on account of false or weak teaching), it would be better for him to have a heavy millstone hung around his neck, and to be drowned in the depth of the sea".

Sin is a theological construct, construed differently by different faiths, sects thereof, and individual adherents. "Gay sex is sin" is a pointless assertion in civil society.
You believe that because different faiths disagree on what sin is, that it's a philosophical debate that's not needed in "civil society", where presumably norms are settled in civil, logical ways. Christians believe that God exists, and that sin is not philosophical but what actually separates one further from God. To us, it's not pointless because we actually believe that all of us need to be close to God, and that not doing our duty to proclaim the word of God endangers not only your relationship to Him but ours as well. Of course this proclamation should be done as a gentle invitation, but it should be done.

Posted by: Bandersnatch at April 16, 2015 01:02 PM (JtwS4)" I suppose for an atheist much of what people of faith believe, say and do is dumb. Nevertheless, they believe it. If you do not accept the premise which is the basis of a religion, the behavior of people who do accept that premise may seem dumb but it can be predictable. For example, I do not worry that tasting the flesh of cows or pigs will endanger my soul but the people who issued the M1853 Enfield rifle to the Indian army along with paper cartridges greased with lard or beef tallow that needed to have the end bitten off before the powder was dumped down the barrel were aware of the beliefs of their soldiers and should have been able to predict the Sepoy Mutiny.

I agree. Sin is when we fail to obey God and follow His righteous commands. Trying to portray sin as meaningless because people have different faiths is like trying to portray math as meaningless because different people get different things wrong on a test. There's only one truth, no matter how many arguments and disagreements there are about the topic. What matters is what the truth is, not how you feel about it or what others say.

The number one, basic, rock solid foundational truth of Christianity is that we're all sinners. That's as basic as it gets, and why Jesus Christ lived and died on this earth, because we need a savior.
But realizing our own sin doesn't somehow negate it in others. I recognize my sins but that doesn't blind me to other people's sin. We can't point our finger in arrogant condescension and condemn others as being more sinful than us because we all have fallen short of God's commandments, we're all hellbound unless plucked out by the saving work of Christ. We all stand guilty before God. But we can and should realize when people are sinning against God and condemn that sin. If someone murders, steals, rapes, defrauds, gossips, disobeys a righteous command by a parent, lusts after another than their spouse, etc... that's still sinful even if I'm just as sinful. And at the very least, Christians are not to go along with a culture that pretends otherwise.

There's a lot in there. Finding the exact encyclical
is above my pay grade. Ultimately every sin of every kind by every person in the history of mankind boils down to one thing: believing you know better than God.

So many Unbelievers seem to think that because Christians (in this case) have a set of beliefs that they try to follow, somehow means that they believe they're better than anyone else that's non-Christian.
Sure I would guess that some will fall into that sin (swidt?) but for the most part Christians understand all too well (and our Gospels make this point over and over) that we are sinners. All of us whether Christian or Wiccan or Jew are sinners and fallen short of the glory of God. Romans 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; We make a very large POINT about being sinners. WE not just YOU but WE meaning US Christians. All you unbelievers out there it's taken for granted but WE know we are sinners and have fallen short and Jesus wept for us and sacrificed himself for us and our sins. So although we are Sinners, we do have the saving grace of knowing that as Christians we will be forgiven and our sins washed away. That's the only thing Christians believe we have that non believers don't.

Sean --
I did the research about a decade ago when a Catholic I knew asked me the Catholic Church position on homosexuality -- as they felt some same sex attraction (not to me, thank God). I was pretty sure it was a little more nuanced then Leviticus. So I looked and looked and found that connection. It's a little less judgmental.

I don't. The Bible is not a hunting license, as T9 said. If you're going after him for implying that someone here is hunting ... you'll have to make the case. I responded to what you emphasized in your response. In context of his whole post, he is also correct that we who are Christians are not judges or condemners.

Nobody is being capricious or inconsistent about that. Its only noticed because 1) Homosexual activists are so in your face that Christians are responding louder 2) The hate against historic Christianity is becoming more pronounced and mainstreamed Christians also say I shouldn't have sex, because I'm not married. They say that pedophiles shouldn't have sex with kids, caprophiles with goats, and adulterers with someone other than their spouse. That's not capricious, its very consistent. We all struggle with sins. Christians say we should resist those sins, whatever their shape. Whether its theft, murder, gossip, or hate, its all sin and we should refrain from it. This is not capricious. Posted by: Christopher Taylor at April 16, 2015 01:41 PM (39g3+) 428

Uh, lay off all the sex sins, guys. Including the gay butt hole stuff. Gay sex gets attention because the Left made it the issue, not because Christians are obsessed with it.

Consider this: high school girls are hot, they really are very beautiful and have wonderful bods. Let's not pretend otherwise or act like we haven't noticed.
But its wrong to sex them up until they grow up. They're too young, you just don't do it. This isn't some cruel imposition of societal rules or oppression no matter how hot that sophomore blonde in the front row in the miniskirt is. Just because you might want to bang the JV cheerleading squad doesn't mean its right or okay or that its acceptable. Its wrong to do so, no matter how pure your motives or how willing she is. Life is full of things like that: wrong to do even if you want to and you don't think anyone gets hurt. Its just wrong. Your urges or "natural" desires or inclinations are irrelevant. Don't do it.

It's funny that people are trying to call Christians hypocrites over pointing out sins, because these are invariably the same people who state that lying like Harry Reid, not paying your taxes like Reverend Al, flagrantly disobeying Federal law when it comes to erasing emails and having private servers like Hillary, making death threats against people, vandalizing churches, outright defiance of the law when it comes to immigration don't count as "sins".
In other words, they want Christians to tie themselves in knots while they and their fellow Democrats and gay-sex marriage supporters lie, cheat, steal and break whatever laws they want. This is Alinsky bullshit, and Christians should never fall for it. Instead Christians should point at them and ask flat-out, "Why are YOU demanding I follow to the letter a belief system and laws that YOU will NOT?" Christians are humble before God, not before man. And people who support gay-sex marriage are nothing but antireligious bigots and pigs whose sole purpose is to destroy Christianity.

For you to call that statement wrong, you have to say that the Bible IS a law book intended to empower imperfect men to judge or condemn others". Which it is not. It does have books of law in it. It does tell of the judgement and condemnation of men by God, and how men were to carry that out. But it is not about men judging and condemning other men, nor is that result it's purpose. The Bible is also not a self-help book about how to enjoy ourselves. You're applying too much scrutiny to a quick Internet comment, and you've stepped out of bounds in the process. I am pointing this out to you because you are more demonstrably wrong than what you are trying to correct. Posted by: ConservativeMonster, Rabid Puppy at April 16, 2015 02:21 PM (0NdlF) 472

"Calling someone a sinner based on the way they like their sex is dumb. "
as usual pro-fags like banderstach show ignorance of several aspects of human nature, history and obviously theology. Leaving aside what the bible (or any other religious book) says homosexuality has always been strictly coded even before Christianity started. During the greeks and the romans the male 'bottom' was considered effectively half a female (and females back in those days weren't worth much). Zeus (or Jupiter) wanted to have sex with Ganimede (a male) and obviously he disposed him shortly afterwards as a toy. What does it tell you about homosexuality 2000 years ago? It was not the sugary tales we hear today about adam and steve being together since kindergarten (!!!!) and wanting to play house by purchasing a living doll from a poor Russian woman. Despite being use as an access to acceptable sex in a time where contraception was simply not there, it was not glorified or paraded around. Same thing with Samurai's homosexual sex and all the other examples of homosexuality in history. So throughout history, taking it up the ass has always been seen as a way to emasculate a man. Why nowadays it should be any different is beyond me. But the stupid pro-big anus they think there is something intrinsically 'special' in a sex action that has been performed since forever, but in 2000 AD it needs to be glorified by constant standing ovations. As I always say, it will be either the Russians, the Chinese or the muslims taking care of this problem. Our dear faggot friends would have destroyed any Christian in sight. Let them deal with their ISIS friends. Posted by: fromabroad at April 16, 2015 03:33 PM (rnV3B) 474

And do you want to know what else doesn't change a thing? The Book of Revelation which was written by men and put in the bible by men and is simply a book written by men who had no idea what they were talking about.
