Actually, if you need it spelled out: pointing to the fact that you
are hypocritical -- worse, smugly and aggresively hypocricital.
You've spent endless hours here bewailing Them and telling us
how They must be controlled -- but when it comes to the much
more common, far more prevelant sin -- one which most
certainly many of your friends and church members are commiting
on an ongoing basis, daily, every time they go home to the second
wife or third husband -- and the consequences of which the Bible tells
us will be equally dire as the wagese of homosexuality -- than you have
not one word to say about it.
Not. One. Word.
Heh...you be sure and tell us when divorcees pool their immorality for
the
political purpose of demanding their behavior be accepted as cool and
taught
as such in school.
In your own words "Again my crusade is not with the individual, it is
the institution of marriage... ". What is doing the most damage to the
institution of marriage right now? What is causing 50% of marriages to
fail? DIVORCE. Yet you hypocritically say not one word about it
despite your claim that "..my crusade is not with the individual, it is
the institution of marriage...".
Divorcees do not have to demand that their behaviour be accepted, it is
already legal and accepted in society - yet you don't speak against it.
The existence of Divorce is taught in schools and yet you don't speak
against that. For someone who claims the "high moral ground" you are
just another hypocritical, cafeteria christian, picking and choosing
which since you will castigate despit your hold book telling you divorce
IS a sin!
That is a fight for another thread. I nominate you to crusade for it. This
thread has a topic
And of COURSE you don't have a word of comdenation about your
re-married friends: that would be hard. Fag-bashing is easy
and fun. Coming on here and saying that your friends and
co-workers, perhaps even members of your own family, are
bound for hell as surely as Steve and Lance -- well, that
wouldn't make you fell nearly so smug and self-righteous,
would it now?
I say again, if not for the efforts of a few, you would never hear from
me.
It isn't that I'm out to shame anyone for the behavior they do. They'll
have
to answer for that them selves. My issue is with those few, you included
who
take the sin and flaunt it in societies face as normal when we all know
'better'.
"..my crusade is not with the individual, it is the institution of
marriage..." and yet, in the paragraph above you are attacking an
individual.
I'm speaking to the individual who addressed me head on. What would you have
me do, ignore?
How unsurprisingly hypocritical of you. You further your
hypocrisy by not talking about the 50% of ex-marrieds, divorcees, who
"..take the sin and flaunt it in societies face".
That is the subject of a different thread, read the topic duffus.
For those few who's moral compass has no conscience, society has a duty
to
draw the line on tolerance else chaos brakes out. Society tolerates the
homosexual, it does not equate it as moral or equal to natural
affection.
Depends in which society you live now doesn't it? You have my sympathy
for living in a repressive human rights backwater.
Is that what most Libs think of America the beautiful, where God shed his
grace?
Hypocrite.
There is no hypocrisy.
"..my crusade is not with the individual, it is the institution of
marriage..." What is causing 50% of marriages to fail?
A seperation from commitment due to placing self before 'as one'.
DIVORCE. Yet
you hypocritically say not one word about it despite your claim above.
Like I said, when divorcees take on dogmatic political crusades, you let me
know.
We're talking about whether homosexuals should be
allowed to marry.
Yes... lets talk about the 3-10% of the population who are petitioning
their government, thought the courts, for a right that is denied to them
and lets IGNORE THE 50% OF THE POPULATION DIVORCING.
It is not the job of the courts to legislate!!! That's done by petitioning
ones Legislature!!!
"The Courts must declare the sense of the law; and if they should be
disposed to exercise will instead of judgment, the consequences would be
the substitution of their pleasure for that of the legislative body.
--The Federalist No. 78

All freedoms come with responsibilities. In a moral approach to the law,
individuals are responsible for civil behavior toward one another, even
those with whom they disagree. Our institutions are likewise responsible for
providing a clear standard of appropriate conduct and for supporting that
standard with legal sanction. It is on this basis that the Supreme Court has
undercut government's ability to provide that consistent legal sanction to
marriage.
