God will sort this all out one day and many will be shocked at the result, but not as many as supposed.
I believe mankind knows in the deepest part of their spirit, that what God considers an abomination to be wrong behaviors indeed.

This article brings to light the fact of what happens when the gay agenda has been accepted as the norm. I am glad that this woman is speaking up about being raised in a gay home, and how that has affected her life.

Totally agree.

Me too. It is hard to know if you haven't been there!

Re: Interesting Article on Same Sex Marriage

This is already happening in America. But, to her point, it would certainly ramp up if the Supreme Court rules against our current definition of marriage.

"In Canada, freedoms of speech, press, religion, and association have suffered greatly due to government pressure. The debate over same-sex marriage that is taking place in the United States could not legally exist in Canada today. Because of legal restrictions on speech, if you say or write anything considered “homophobic” (including, by definition, anything questioning same-sex marriage), you could face discipline, termination of employment, or prosecution by the government."

Re: Interesting Article on Same Sex Marriage

I've said before that "hate" crimes bills will eventually be what takes away our First Amendment freedoms. It will end up like Ben Carson called for when he wrote, "If my right to free speech causes you actual harm, it becomes time to curtail my speech." And religious institutions, churches and clergy will not be exempted. They'll claim they're suffering harm from religious beliefs. Like Hillary Clinton demanded, religious beliefs will have to be changed or else face fines or worse.

It's coming.

Great point!

"In effect, same-sex marriage not only deprives children of their own rights to natural parentage, it gives the state the power to override the autonomy of biological parents, which means parental rights are usurped by the government."

"It takes a village..." This is why the government would love this to pass. That's its end game.

One thing to note, IMO, is that Canada has government dominated healthcare. That takes, in itself, major control over an individual's life before your freedom of speech, which was this Administration's goal.
