Obama admin admits SSM is threat to religious liberty

[TheOldSchool]

Yes they do...because they can get away with it. What do you think our religious extremists would do here if it were not for our impartial, SECULAR laws?

So you are saying the only reason most evangelicals are not stringing up gay people is the law?

If it were not for the law evangelicals would be going out of their way to inflict even more harm on gay people than they do now. They would have our schools preach against them, our government preach against them, establishments ban them, clinics to try to "treat" them, etc. Because they believe their religion demands it. And there beliefs are strong to the point of zealotry. Hell we should all be grateful there's nothing about suicide bombing written in the Bible or they'd be as gung ho about it as any extremist Muslim.

Kind of like how progressives are going out of their way to inflict harm on them. But your reasons are "secular" and "good" and are therefore "OK".

Again you show your bigotry against people you disagree with.

Evangelicals, by their actions, inflict enormous emotional damage on gay people. To the point where many are driven to drugs and suicide. The only "damage" sane people are trying to inflict on evangelical people is forcing them to follow our laws.

Still not the same as gay lynch mobs. The fact you are even trying to argue this shows you need to demonize people you disagree with, its a sign of a weak mind, nothing more.

And your last statement shows your cowardice due to your desire to use government to inflict your own moral code on others, and your hypocrisy, as you castigate evangelicals for the exact same thing.

How does it feel to be a gutless, cowardly, intellectually deficient hack?

You're right I suppose driving gay people towards drugs and suicide is not the same as a gay lynch mob. Though why the fuck your bringing up gay lynch mobs makes no sense.

Are evangelicals are cowards for trying to write their beliefs into the government then?

What do you think of Sharia law asshole? Should people be practicing that in the U.S.? Is it cowardice to make sure the government never allows it?

 

[The Rabbi]

No, the ones overseas do actual violence against gay people. The ones here just try to shoot up political assemblies, and gun down unarmed soldiers inside army bases.

Yes they do...because they can get away with it. What do you think our religious extremists would do here if it were not for our impartial, SECULAR laws?

So you are saying the only reason most evangelicals are not stringing up gay people is the law?

Our secular laws. That is correct.

Bullshit. A overwhelming majority of evangelicals want to be left alone, not go out on gay lynch parties. That you have to equate opposition to your lifestyle with a desire to kill you is both sad and disturbing.

The evangelicals are actively trying to enshrine anti-gay discrimination as a right.

No, the gayhaddis are trying to trample on the 1A rights of religious people,dum-dum.

if you actually read the post I was responding to, it was in reply to body saying evangelicals are only held by the law from going out and killing gays. Context man, context.

I don't agree with their efforts to legislate morality either, however your side is the one running to courts, and commissions, and is the side actually trying to ruin people for their beliefs. If they manage to actually start doing it, I would be against them as well.

Sharia law is stupid as well, and I oppose it when people attempt to implement it as part of governmental law. What I don't do is try to force people to not follow sharia law voluntarily. Your side is making people choose between faith and secular law. That is the main issue.

In America Evangelicals are our religious extremists. You do not hear Muslims preaching hatred against gay people on our media. Only evangelicals and their supporters

No, the ones overseas do actual violence against gay people. The ones here just try to shoot up political assemblies, and gun down unarmed soldiers inside army bases.

Yes they do...because they can get away with it. What do you think our religious extremists would do here if it were not for our impartial, SECULAR laws?

Well at least they admit it. But people paying attention already knew this.

‘It’s going to be an issue’: Obama admin admits to Supreme Court that gay ‘marriage’ threatens religious liberty

April 29, 2015 (AlbertMohler.com) -- “It is … it is going to be an issue.” With those words, spoken yesterday before the Supreme Court of the Unites States, the Solicitor General of the United States announced that religious liberty is directly threatened by the legalization of same-sex marriage. Donald Verrili, representing the Obama Administration as the nation’s highest court considered again the issue of same-sex marriage, was responding to a question from Justice Samuel Alito. His answer confirms with candor the threat we have long seen coming.

It s going to be an issue Obama admin admits to Supreme Court that gay marriage threatens religious liberty Opinion LifeSite

Threatened as it should be. This the 21st century, not the 12th. Let religion play by the rules like everyone else.

US COnstitution be damned, eh, dum-dum?

The Supreme Court has the authority to decide whether or not same sex marriage is a right that can stand despite the whinings of the religious factions.

As usual, running to 5 of 9 un-elected lawyers. For all your purported love of democracy you sure do run to the one branch of our government that resembles oligarchy a lot.

Where would you go to ensure the 2nd amendment is adhered to?

When those who support those marriages use its legal existence to force them to do something they don't want to do.

Until a few decades ago it was pretty much everyone, all religions, and even those not so religious. And yet there were no mass executions, no purges, just social shunning, criminalization, and the occasional murder (notice I call it murder, which is a crime). All bad, and not acceptable by truly moral people, but not the "kill all the gays" pogrom you expect if the law didn't stop people from killing.

and nice use of lumping your fears with what your side is actually doing. The fact you have to use dishonesty and attempted gotcha posts shows the weakness of your argument.

According to the Pew Research center, there are over 70,000 gay marriages in the United States.

How many same-sex marriages in the U.S. At least 71 165 probably more Pew Research Center

How many butchers, bakers, and candlestick makers have been sued? Maybe 6. I really don't pay too much attention but I bet you know the number. Feel free to enlighten us; divide that number by the number of marriages (technically 71,165) and you'll end up with less than 1% of gay marriages ever making a ripple in a pond much less headlines. Since you know the numbers better than us, would you please do the math and arrive at the actual figure?

Your argument leads to, well, not that many little girls are raped so let's not bother with a law. It doesn't work that way, even one is an outrage, hence why my phone goes nuts every time a local kid goes missing.

Your side wants to separate the issues, similar to boiling a frog slowly, but that trick doesn't work with me, and people who think like me.

According to the Pew Research center, there are over 70,000 gay marriages in the United States.

How many same-sex marriages in the U.S. At least 71 165 probably more Pew Research Center

How many butchers, bakers, and candlestick makers have been sued? Maybe 6. I really don't pay too much attention but I bet you know the number. Feel free to enlighten us; divide that number by the number of marriages (technically 71,165) and you'll end up with less than 1% of gay marriages ever making a ripple in a pond much less headlines. Since you know the numbers better than us, would you please do the math and arrive at the actual figure?

If it is such a small number then why is the State making such a big deal over it?

The constitution applies to all people regardless of how small the number may be.

Thank you for proving my repeated point that this is such a small deal for gay couples that government action isn't warranted.

Laws protect all persons...there is no limit based on quantity.


Would you feel the same if someone wanted to stop blacks from marrying whites? It, too, is a small percentage. Should they enjoy protection from the law? If there is a difference...please explain your allowance of one group and your objection to the other.
