FRC Wants Supernatural Intervention to Stop Marriage Equality

Governor Chris Gregoire will succeed in her effort to legalize same-sex “marriage” in Washington State.

I am sorry, but this just keeps pissing me off. I am getting sick and tired of being treated as sub human, with my rights being somehow considered ironically “rights”. A possibility of equal treatment in hospitals, tax codes, and property codes somehow deserving once again of the ironic “marriage”.

Fuck off, if you want to be a bigoted ass then be a bigoted ass. No need to be sanctimonious by degrading my status as less then sentient.

Wow. How are they going to explain it when God doesn’t do anything? I know they’ll have an excuse; I’m just interested in what it will be. The worst thinking we do is when we are trying to reconcile cognitive dissonace. For them “the worst” will be pretty bad. And by bad, I mean funny.

So when all is said and done, when it passes, will these shit stains finally acknowledge that same sex marriage is just fine with their sky fairy.

They need to pray harder and longer so as to stay busy and leave the rest of the not insane population alone.

Anyone check out the passages quoted. The first two sound like FRC has big, fat hard-on for the Prez. The next three sound like they are preying to aid the legislature, and the last two are injunctins against the evils of divorce, take that Newtie!

Dingo

What does a law saying you are allowed to do something (these guys consider) sinful have to do with knowing better than God?

They also never explain how stopping gay marriage ‘preserves’ straight marriage. That’s like saying we must outlaw kilts to preserve the wearing of pants.

Meh. Like MikeMa, I hope they spend more time in prayer. I frankly can’t think of a better way to have my political opponents spend their time.

Divine intervention worked for Sarah Palin, Michele Bachmann, Rick Perry and Herman Cain. May it work as well for the FRC.

I just wonder what “research” the FRC does when all their questions are answered in the bible.

I think the only thing holding god back is the lack of commitment by his followers. They need to make an offering to god such as a vow of silence (both in person and the internet).

They don’t say what kind of “supernatural assistance” God might give here. What could it possibly be? I suppose he could theoretically change the minds of legislators who would otherwise vote for the bill, but that clearly contradicts that whole free will thing that they use as an excuse to get out of the problem of evil.

Well, God could remind them to ignore that whole ‘love thy neighbor’ passage and vote for bigotry and if not, he’ll personally see to it that they burn in Hell for infinity. A place he intelligently designed for people just like them. That way they technically could choose to support the FRC’s position without violating the whole free will thing, kinda like the Godfather’s, ‘making you an offer you can’t refuse’ proposal.

I also find it totally unsurprising while thoroughly hypocritical and deceitful that the FRC failed to inform their supporters that Sen. Haugen, whose name they raise, came to her decision based on the Bible’s second of only two New Covenant commands. Cite: http://goo.gl/avbuF

Eric, I am totally stealing your pants/kilts metaphor! I will happily pay you one internets for the privilege.

I wonder what it’s like to know you’re on the wrong side of history and your invisible friend can’t do a thing about it.

Unfortunately for them, Divine died in 1988.

Is there any US group with Family in its name that doesn’t stand for the exact opposite of what the word implies or isn’t bigotted to the extreme against those they portray as the ‘other’.

Just what are god’s stats on supernatural assists? Pretty low, last I checked.

The FRC is indirectly suggesting a solution to the nation’s partisan divide. Let’s propose that all social bills only require support of a simple majority of liberal politicians to pass into law but are subject to “divine veto”. The latter intervention would need to be acclaimed by the liberal politicians, but of course, it would be so obvious that it would be undeniable. How could social conservatives argue with that?

This is Washington … Mount St, Helens WAS the warning, just a bit early.

I suppose he could theoretically change the minds of legislators who would otherwise vote for the bill, but that clearly contradicts that whole free will thing that they use as an excuse to get out of the problem of evil.

All he has to do is harden their hearts, like he did with Pharaoh. That doesn’t violate their free will, because, well, just because.
