It's hideous news. Why should gays be allowed to marry when gun rights are not protected.

Because being gay doesn't hurt anyone.

And, don't forget that gun rights are very well protected.  Which is why we're in this mess in the first place.

And also because they're, you know, entirely unrelated issues.

What I ment is why shouldn't I be able to have a thirty bullet clip or a semiautomatic yet people of the same gender
are allowed to solomize something nature and Nature's God have forbidden under rather strict terms.

I'd compliment you for the portmanteau of 'solemnize' and 'sodomize', but I don't know if it was deliberate. The answer is, again, that your 'right' to own specific types of weaponry has nothing to do with anything. Why would somebody so concerned about the strictures of the Prince of Peace even want it, anyway?

Well, I don't know what this post means, but you are allowed to sodomize yourself with a shotgun barrel, if that's what you were asking about.

Is JCL trolling or serious? It's impossible to tell. It's a lot like the update. Sometimes you just have to play along.

1. In nature, LOTS of animals have same sex activity. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homosexual_behavior_in_animals

2. Why should a law have a basis in a religious belief of what is forbidden and what is not?

Its unlikely that a crazed lunatic could walk into a crowded building and gay marry everybody there in a mass spree.

What JCL, and many of my fellow Christians tend to forget is that we are made in God’s image. If God did not want Homosexuals, we would not have any. Homosexuals exist. As pointed out, homosexuality is found among animals in nature, who for all we know, are not affected by human sin at all. That shows that homosexuality was prevalent in nature before the fall of man, and should thereby be recognized as a legitimate love between two human beings in Christianity. It’s a shame that so many evangelicals don’t recognize this.

Actually, many evangelicals tend to hold that animals were also affected by the fall.  After all, there was no death, and hence no carnivores in the Garden of Eden.

Sadly and scarily, he's completely serious.

I'm sure one day he'll get kicked by a mule again and his brain will return from the 1650s.
