The Christians are being persecuted by the gays. So much that they felt the need to hold a rally, and roll out all their best creeps.
Then, just moments later I received this PM in my "other" box on Facebook. I guess she read a post of mine, and felt she must tell me about God.
HI Jason, My name is Madeleine. Nice to meet you. Interesting post on HONY. You said that this lady didn't pity you if she was honest. Well I'm being honest and i will tell you, that I do not pity you at the moment. But if you should say that you do not believe in God and your eyes are focused on this passing world and this never changed and you didn't believe in Jesus before death then i would pity you. I have seen huge miracles and heard many others...of course we ourselves and this world which God made is beautiful....but this is not where we will stay....its passing.
Look around you for a moment...everything you see will pass away just as it clearly states in the bible (which when being read with the gift of the holy spirit and prayer is incredible). So keep your eyes on worldly things which will soon all be dead - all you experience with your senses....or keep your eyes fixed on the things which can only be seen with your spiritual senses which is promised to last forever. The gift God gave you of free will and therefore the choice is yours. So no I don't pity you as I do not know you so it would be wrong to judge you. But i pity anyone who chooses the world. It's as stable as the stock market on a bad day. In prayers. Madeleine
Apparently she was concerned that I believed my thoughts were greater than god's, so she went on. I love when they quote the bible, like it means something.
God loves you.If you believe that your thoughts are greater than God's and therefore you disagree with His existence, then I put this to you...“Where were you when I laid the earth’s foundation?Tell me, if you understand.5 Who marked off its dimensions?Surely you know!Who stretched a measuring line across it?6 On what were its footings set,or who laid its cornerstone—7 while the morning stars sang togetherand all the angels[a] shouted for joy?8 “Who shut up the sea behind doorswhen it burst forth from the womb,9 when I made the clouds its garmentand wrapped it in thick darkness,10 when I fixed limits for itand set its doors and bars in place,11 when I said, ‘This far you may come and no farther;here is where your proud waves halt’?12 “Have you ever given orders to the morning,or shown the dawn its place,13 that it might take the earth by the edgesand shake the wicked out of it?14 The earth takes shape like clay under a seal;its features stand out like those of a garment.15 The wicked are denied their light,and their upraised arm is broken.16 “Have you journeyed to the springs of the seaor walked in the recesses of the deep?17 Have the gates of death been shown to you?Have you seen the gates of the deepest darkness?18 Have you comprehended the vast expanses of the earth?Tell me, if you know all this.19 “What is the way to the abode of light?And where does darkness reside?20 Can you take them to their places?Do you know the paths to their dwellings?21 Surely you know, for you were already born!You have lived so many years!22 “Have you entered the storehouses of the snowor seen the storehouses of the hail,23 which I reserve for times of trouble,for days of war and battle?24 What is the way to the place where the lightning is dispersed,or the place where the east winds are scattered over the earth?25 Who cuts a channel for the torrents of rain,and a path for the thunderstorm,26 to water a land where no one lives,an uninhabited desert,27 to satisfy a desolate wastelandand make it sprout with grass?28 Does the rain have a father?Who fathers the drops of dew?29 From whose womb comes the ice?Who gives birth to the frost from the heavens30 when the waters become hard as stone,when the surface of the deep is frozen?31 “Can you bind the chains[b] of the Pleiades?Can you loosen Orion’s belt?32 Can you bring forth the constellations in their seasons[c]or lead out the Bear[d] with its cubs?33 Do you know the laws of the heavens?Can you set up God’s[e] dominion over the earth?34 “Can you raise your voice to the cloudsand cover yourself with a flood of water?35 Do you send the lightning bolts on their way?Do they report to you, ‘Here we are’?36 Who gives the ibis wisdom[f]or gives the rooster understanding?[g]37 Who has the wisdom to count the clouds?Who can tip over the water jarsof the heavens38 when the dust becomes hardand the clods of earth stick together?39 “Do you hunt the prey for the lionessand satisfy the hunger of the lions40 when they crouch in their densor lie in wait in a thicket?41 Who provides food for the ravenwhen its young cry out to Godand wander about for lack of food?

Funny, God told me through the Drudge Report that I need more coffee.

Ugh...didn't like that. Poorly written and full of vague, unsupported statements. And he ends on a point that's just fundamentally incorrect. When Roy Moore says that our rights, meaning civil liberties, come from God, he's actually much closer to the notion than is Cuomo or this article quoting him. The premise of freedoms is based in natural law, which many philosophers attribute to God. Regardless, Moore is actually correct to say that freedoms do not come from the Constitution. The Constitution assumes rights, and simply restricts government from taking them away. If they do not come from government, from where do they come? This is where the God/Natural Law angle comes in. You don't have to believe in God to believe in freedoms...you just have to believe that most freedoms reflect some truths about the natural human condition. My "right" to free speech is based in the fact that it's very hard to prevent me from talking if I really want to; all you can do is punish me after the fact.

Wouldn't it be nice if they could all just tell us what they believe, why, and what they plan to prioritize in office? I could give two shits about his beliefs on evolution, for example, if his priorities are national defense and immigration. But if they're science and education, then we're fucked.
