The internet makes me laugh

There are plenty of liberal news sites that do the exact same thing.

There should be no victims in this ruling.
the religious institutes that are playing victim.
It's about time that they should be shunned for discriminating against gays, like people get mauled for discriminating against race.

Im saying the internet is evil.
It give anyone the ability to belittle someone from the safety of a keyboard.
Most the time im attacked by Christians for my belief that the bible is more like a guideline and not meant to be taken seriously.

I agree that religions should pay taxes. I think everyone should pay taxes.

As to your point about the Feds forcing churches to perform gay marriages. Are you arguing that there are no gay Catholics or that gay activists would never try to make a political issue out of a Catholic church refusing to marry them? Because I'm pretty confident you're wrong on both accounts.

As to your point about you basing your opinion on what you've heard "conservatives" say... That's my point about the media focussing on conservative, Christian, republican, opposition. You're making my point for me.

Every conservative Christian out there who is happy with the courts decision to mandate the government issue marriage liscences equitably is being victimized by the media focussing only on those conservative Christians who are unhappy with the ruling.

Let's pretend for a second that you're a conservative Christian who supports gay marriage and goes to church every Sunday with your mom. The general public considers you a backwards thinking, racist, homophobe because the media has painted all conservative Christians that way. Oh yeah, and they may close your church down if the government takes away their tax exempt status.

I hope that clears up what all the fuss is about.

Does everyone use their full name for their email address?

I think that a lot of the time people can say what they like online because there are no consequences, you can taunt someone all day online and nothing would get done, try that in real life and you'd end up on your back.

There seems to be too many people today who either dont understand the word oppinion or choose to ignore it, fathering yoy to think their way because in their own little mind they can't cope in a world where.people view things in another way, simply because its not their version of "right"

beyond thing that used to annoy me was getting some 13 year old kid saying how straight edge he is, when in real life he's not old enough to drink and no ones even thought about passing jack from the left hand side. I guess that's one positive from Punk leaving WWE straight edge seems to have lost its cool now

No one's getting they're tax exempt status taken away.
It's just not going to happen.
the irs threatened a church with that once for not marrying a bi-racial couple and it didn't go through.

It's all talk to try to get people to go against the ruling.

Besides, only 22 or so states have LGBT included in their discrimination laws and none of them are southern states.

And it's harming the Christian conservatives, because the way they think..not that the media is against them.
more voters now are likely to not vote for an official that openly opposes gay marriage.

Going on a tirade to discriminate, only hurts the one doing it.

You pretty much nailed it here. That's why I'll never have Twitter despite the peer pressure.

You're missing the point. A lot of conservative Christians think homosexuals should be able to marry. By the media focussing on the ones that are against it the general public is left thinking all conservative Christians are like that.

Take cops for example. Many probably think this country has a problem with racist cops killing unarmed black men because the media focusses on it. In the process good cops are being harmed because the media only focusses on bad ones. The converse is true BTW. Blacks are actually less likely to be killed by cops then whites.

Most people in this country support gay marriage. That's why Hillary Clinton and Barrak Obama both changed their positions on it. Clinton's husband signed DOMA into law and Obama openly said he was against gay marriage when he was elected. Now that the majority of Americans are for it they've both flip flopped. That's not a story though. Conservative Christians not flip flopping is. Why?

BTW, most Americans are Christians. So how are a majority of Americans for gay marriage when Christians are supposedly against it? The thesis that conservative Christians are against gay marriage just doesn't hold up mathematically.

Personally, I don't care if the church loses its tax exempt status. I don't think anyone should be tax exempt. That doesn't mean that I don't think the government will go after it though. Of course they will. They didn't before, but before they didn't supposed gay marriage. Now they do. Why? They want that tax revenue.

No one is going to overturn the gay marriage ruling because the country is for it. Just like the country is being programmed to think all conservative Christians are discriminatory. When the government goes after that tax money people will be okay with it.

The government has a history of trying to force Christians to go against their own religion. You remember Obamacare don't you? Forcing Christians to pay for abortions. You remember that right? Of course forcing gay marriage is on their radar. I don't have to disagree with the government to see it coming. I just pay attention to what's going on.

Think about it? If this was about equal rights then why did it take so long?
