Though evil and powerful he may be, he and his minions get far too much credit.

Liberty without morality leads to debauchery.

Re: Was it necessary to repeal DADT?

Should polygamy laws be deemed unconstitional? Who is gov. to micromanage adult relationships?

Right. Thank God that abomination was over-turned. I'm just hoping no further abominations are made legal by this same body.

The Supreme Court handled the polygamy question over a century ago.

Guess I'm just old fashioned, un-enlightened, ill-informed, oh and bigoted....but I still say if society would return to honoring God's will and ways we would reap blessing. Turning away from those things reaps the opposite.
I know all people/societies outside Christ are sinners, but I do think ones that yeild more to vileness would have greater strongholds.

Which means it is a valid point requiring the Supremes to have the final say.

I believe both sides have very compelling arguments and it will be an interesting case. Like everything else so much depends on the underlying case going up and the quality of the litigants.

Where do these teachings come from?

Perhaps Christian fiction has played too heavy a role in this area of theology?
