Wrong. As Harry has so rightly pointed out, homosexuals are not gentle and timid folk who just want to be left alone. They are a militant force seeking to legislate and litigate the rest of us into submission. Now that it has started, it will never be over. Though they could never have converted me to their point of view, that being an acceptance of the homosexual lifestyle as a perfectly normal alternative to God's own institution of marriage, I have none the less been compelled to accept it by no less than the Supreme Court. Whether I like it or not a certain amount of my tax dollar will now be used by my federal government to foster the homosexual lifestyle.

And as far as Churches are concerned I firmly believe homos will be coming after them too. Just as in the case of the Mondale and Ferraro platform, calls will go forth to ensure a certain number or percentage of Pastors, Sunday School teachers and even Church administration will be homosexual. Further, preaching and teaching the Biblical perspective on the sin of homosexuality will likely fall under hate speech or hate crime laws thus, failure to comply to the proper level of government sanctioned compromise along those lines will no doubt result in that particular Church's loss of state and federal tax exemptions.

What the SCOTUS has ruled legal must be adhered to by all. So, that being the case what will your particular Church tell the first gay couple that comes to demand a traditional Church marriage to be performed in your sanctuary by your very own Pastor? This will get sticky in a hurry.

FWIW, Christians have chosen to take most of this stuff laying down now for decades. Now however, as in countless examples of historical Biblical accounts since God's people have been a no-show every round, He has brought the fight to the doorsteps of the Church. We will answer the bell one way or the other.

^^ This is why I was happy to see Tennessee introduce a bill to protect pastors when they decline to perform same sex ceremonies. Its freaking pathetic that its come to this but you're correct, they won't stop with just being able to marry, now they'll want to try and make Christian's do it for them in a house of a God that says No to that lifestyle.
