How them getting married compromise YOUR christianity? Are you going to hell if the US legalizes gay marriage? They are practicing "sodomy" now. How does a piece of paper, and equal rights, hurt you? You have a right to your religion, but you can't force it on anybody.

I would never try to force the Lord on anybody, after all, even God doesn't try to force Himself on men. That is a decision left solely up to each man and, making that decision is the reason we live out our lives on this planet.

Now as for your unreasonable and mutually exclusive anti logic regarding state sponsored legalization of homosexuality. I never said my Christianity was in jeopardy. I said that Christians are being forced to compromise their understanding of Scripture. I said that there is a movement afoot that demands all men to accept the sexually depraved behavior of others on pain of the law. Employers of all sort must now deal with gays in addition to the list of other so-called minorities or suffer monetarily. In fact, the government is presently in the process of taking tax dollars from those who otherwise oppose the legalization of homosexuality, in order to provide benefits and other perks. I don't like that and, I don't like the fact that despite claims to the contrary, those same 'fleeced' from among us are being forced to help pay for abortions. There are laws coming down aimed at forcing all men to be under subjection to that movement. The movement seeks to homogenize all sexual behavior as being equal under the law, you just called it equal rights.

So, I and others of my view, (who comprise the majority in this nation BTW) can be forced to accept things we consider to be errant, but, you think that's okay because you by your own admission harbor contempt for that view. That sound about right?

Acts 5:29 (KJV)
29 Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men.

This nation used to protect Christian rights and interests. Turing our back on traditional morality has cost America dearly, the decent into chaos will only get worse and there will be no safe haven.
