Gay rights fight shifts to anti-discrimination

[AngryCanadian]

This is all because they are trying to show to Russia this.

"Look Russia We can do and have Gay Marriages! you dont"

The American government is something run like a child.

[tod evans]

Just wondering.......

Since the clowns in gowns decreed corporations people and since there's special governmental favors for minority owned corporations......

Would it be possible for two minority owned corporations to declare themselves ***** then merge [gay marriage] and be qualified for even more freebies?

It all gets so damn confusing being PC in today's world...

[Sola_Fide]

Equality is the opposite of liberty, shocker.

Yes. Equality requires government, liberty does not.

[Carlybee]

We have an anti-discrimination ordinance in Houston.

What sorts of things do you think that an LGBT person associates the word 'conservative' with?

Who cares?

[PaulConventionWV]

We all need to setup prayer groups to keep this from happening! PRAY THE GAY AWAY!!! Pray harder everyone! We can stop this!

I wonder if you realize how limp-noodle your satire is, considering the severe satirical nature of what gays are actually doing, y'know, in reality...

[PaulConventionWV]

I'm sorry, but gays forcing churches to marry them or face discrimination charges is totally wrong. They didn't like being forced to do and be something they weren't and they should respect that of any church just the same who would be violating their religious beliefs by performing a marriage that violates that belief. There's plenty of churches that will marry gays today. There's no need to target churches simply because they feel they can now. After all--nothing will change Gods opinion no matter how many churches they attack for discrimination.

Why would you apologize for something like that?

[PaulConventionWV]

What gays are forcing churches to marry them? Where is this stuff coming from? There are always going to be a few douchebags, but for one second, ONE SECOND, imagine that homosexuals are just like you--except they like other homosexual men.

Now imagine they want to get married, just like (presumably) you do. What in the world would cause you to want to get married in a place full of people that detest you? How awful would that feel. Who is propagating the idea that all of a sudden LGBT couples want to rush into hateful churches and force them to perform wedding ceremonies. THIS IS THEIR WEDDING.

They didn't fight for this right to tweak Christians, they fought for it because they have been denied basic rights, like visiting their partner in the hospital, because they are not considered related.

They want the same dignity treated upon the rest of hetero society through its legal institutions.
Is that really so much to ask?

Are you serious right now? "Rights" like being considered relatives by the government? Since when does the government's consideration of you constitute a "right"?

Lol, I really doubt that. I also believe it is quite likely that French is your first language.

I'm not sure, but I doubt the Holy Spirit would be present in a ceremony wedding a monkey to a duck, no matter the relative piety of the officiating preacher.

[otherone]

Yes. Equality requires government, liberty does not.

Equality requires an equalizer.

Since the government passed a million laws and the corporations enacted a billion poliices that allow married people certain benefits tht gays have no access to. And that the celibate have no access to.

I wonder when the celibate people will stand up and start shouting?

Equality is the opposite of liberty, shocker.

Yes. Equality requires government, liberty does not.

Equality comes from God, just as Thomas Jefferson said. Just like liberty.

All government cares about is making some 'animals more equal than others', as Orwell taught us long ago.

Isn't 'discrimination' a necessary built in survival mechanism of the species?

Don't be sorry, that is part of the problem.

Your fear mongering is satirical. Step off the ledge. Your problem is with the government but because of your religion, you are blaming it on the gays. So either focus your anger where it belongs (the government) or pray harder and ask your God to step in.

If you are using nature as the standard for what is right, then murder and statism are right too, because its in our nature.

Evolutionism completely fails to defend liberty.

Nature's fault, got it.

Who designed this mess?

Perhaps six days was just not quite enough time to spend on it.

Back to the drawing board.

DO OVERS!

Exactly, the slaves in this country were equal and God protected them from government, they had all the liberty they deserved, until government messed it up.

[Ronin Truth]

Dear Heavenly Father,

Please take some more time and do it much better next time.

Thanks for listening!

Amen!

[TheCount]

Who cares?

People who want to advance the cause of liberty, I suppose.

My anger is focused where it belongs. Where have I demonstrated any anger toward gays?

What makes you think God considers it a mess?

So it's your opinion that "People who want to advance the cause of liberty" should care what ***** think about conservatives?

Or are you meaning something you didn't type?

I find it hilariously ironic that you ask that, because you managed to read something other than what I typed.

Where did I say anything about conservatives? I asked about the word 'conservative' and nothing more than that. If 'conservative' was associated with laws, people, parties, etc. which furiously tried to legislate against your liberty, would you at all associate 'conservative' with freedom?

[r3volution 3.0]

The proposals pit advocates against many of the same religious conservatives who opposed legalizing same-sex marriage, and who now see the protection of what they call religious liberty as their most urgent task. These opponents argue that anti-discrimination laws will inevitably be used to force religious people and institutions to violate their beliefs.

Boom, you just lost.

Unless we can reclaim the principle that private property owners can disciminate against anyone for any reason simply because it is their property, we're just managing the decline.

Equality is the opposite of liberty, shocker.

Do all devout christians spend all day trolling online forums like you do or were you specially chosen?

All gay people are clearly the same
