Could you be specific as to how two gay people getting married affects you? And I mean specifically. What changes in your day to day life? What negative impact does it have on you?

If someone cheats then they might cheat on you. If someone steals they might steal from you. If someone gets married then...what's the downside for you?
Do you think we are on the 90s?
Companies and jobs force you to accept that stuff.

First it was "bed business", latter marriage, and now drag queens in schools and trans women in sports.

And then they say that slippery slow is a conspiracy

Had you read my first post #6 I stated plainly,

"I never thought to count folks who vote republican as folks who converted to Christ, so I wouldn't expect a Republican voter to mean godly person (with godly morals and values)."

And I''ll add to your Ezekiel

Jude 1:7 Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.
Strange flesh also appears in Genesis 6 when the angles or "sons of God" cohabited with the "daughters of man", resulting in a progeny called in the Hebrew "nephilim”.

So it seems the sin of Sodom was what amounts humans having sex with another species.

Sodom was still a well watered land which was turned into crap because of them.

But nothing that anyone does in bed concerns you or affects you in any way. No does someone getting married. And drag queens and transexuality are specific matters that we can discount if you like. So if there were no drag queens and no transexuals playing sport, what is it specifically about gay marriage that specifically affects you in a negative way? Apart from you claiming that it's not morally right.

The men of Sodom wanted the same strange flesh in Lots house (and they weren't interested in Lots daughter). In Gen 18:20 Abraham recognized them as men (three men) before the two departed from Abraham presence to destroy Sodom.

Alot of the democratic governors arent fat but they do ruin their cities. Some of them like Nancy Pelosi have these HUGE $24,000 fridgerators packed with cases of ice cream (she was showcasing) while Sanfrancisco is the homeless tent city feces capital of the U.S. And Nancy although she eats tons of ice cream isn't what I would call a fat person but she has the midas touch when it comes to ruining alot of things.

But she is generous too, I believe I heard something about everyone gets free needles to inject themselves (and lets be fair, that was thoughtful).

It's incisive political comment like that which has me wondering if I should be supporting the Republicans from now on. Anyone know what size fridge MConnell has? The democratic future of the free world may well rest on the cubic capacity and contents of his GE freezer.

Nancy's Fridge has been the national joke even with liberals. You missed the Sodom related point but thats okay.

I wouldnt support a Republican or Democrat, I'll let the dragon give the seats of power to whomever he will, but as for me coud care less. But I will bust on them from time to time.

A majority within all partisan groups, including Republicans, now support same-sex marriage, according to a poll from the Public Religion Research Institute (PRRI) released on Tuesday.

In 2019, less than half of those who identify as Republican — 47 percent — backed gay marriage, but the survey indicates that number rose to 51 percent last year.

The same survey found that the majority of all partisan groups also support LGBTQ+ nondiscrimination protections in housing, careers and public accommodations, including 62 percent of Republicans, 85 percent of Democrats and 79 percent of independents.
Tell me what result you want and I will order a survey to support that result.

Well that's only 76% of Dems. I'm speechless. Isn't this one of their main platforms now? What kind of Dem is this? I'm serious. Even moderate Dems I know are big proponents of however we're classifyng this.
Maybe your political enemy isn't the monolothical hivemind you imagine them to be.

Your objection to politicians displaying wealth rings hollow.
But she is generous too, I believe I heard something about everyone gets free needles to inject themselves (and lets be fair, that was thoughtful).
Clean needle programs are an effective and sensible way of limiting disease spread in drug users and also a way to reach those people and offer them counseling and a way out of their addiction.

In my humble opinion, those who choose not to participate in a process which many people have died to protect absolve themselves of the right to complain about what people do when they do participate. I certainly don't grant their views any weight.

I'm sure not all Republicans want tax cuts for billionaires. So there's no reason to suppose 100% of Democrats are in some kind of brainwashed agreement.
Didn't answer my question

A couple hundred thousand Democratic people moving into Wyoming would net two blue Senators?
I’ll run this “idea” past George Soros when he comes to sign my check!

Pass my name on to him when you do! Maybe I'll buy a little farm so I can vote in Virginia and Wyoming. I mean if the Republicans can, then maybe we should too.

"During a November 7 speech to the Bay County Florida Republican Party, Florida Attorney Bill Price said he was moving to Georgia and moving in with his brother in order to register to vote and cast a ballot in the January 5 Senate runoff elections. He exhorted those in attendance to be “his roommate in Georgia” and also register to vote fraudulently in the state."

In 2019, less than half of those who identify as Republican — 47 percent — backed gay marriage, but the survey indicates that number rose to 51 percent last year.

The same survey found that the majority of all partisan groups also support LGBTQ+ nondiscrimination protections in housing, careers and public accommodations, including 62 percent of Republicans, 85 percent of Democrats and 79 percent of independents.

As a Republican and a Christian, I oppose gay marriage because the Bible says in says that it’s a sin in both the Old and New Testaments. In the Book of Genesis, God obliterated the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah because of their widespread practice of homosexuality. Leviticus 20:13 calls homosexuality an “abomination” and issues the death penalty for those who engage in it. The more humane New Testament is even stricter on this subject: 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 says that active sodomites will not inherit the Kingdom of God, or in other words will go to hell. Death is temporary, but perdition is eternal.

The Republicans who support LGBT marriage should rethink their views, especially if they’re Christians. Romans 12:2 says that we believers must not conform to the wickedness of this world. In other words, we Christians must not allow ourselves to be influenced by the latest political fashions and accept the fact that gay marriage is a condemnable sin. “’For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,’ declares God” (Isaiah 55:8).

By the way, I fully expect SilverBear to reply to me and accuse me of “hate” and then compare my views to racism, which is a terrible analogy. He did that last time I posted the biblically correct view on gay marriage. Does he not realize that God opposes homosexuality and that being opposed to it is not the same thing as racism?
