Lesbians Walk for Justice

OK - here's an idea:

Find North on a compass ... Walk north - don't stop

Hell - I'd give money for that walk as I am sure MANY others would (oh yea, we did pass PROP 8).

At the Indy Blogs, here is my video Short-Leash Subject story to accompany this news article about the same people visiting Santa Barbara and their efforts for marriage equality under the law:

http://www.independent.com/blogs/santa-b...

For the people who look to Jesus, the state has never defined marriage. The state's contours don't even come close to the shape any given marriage should have.

For those on the other side of the argument, you must make it clearer that you want "state-marriage." That doesn't mean it is necessarily acceptable to some on the other side, but please don't deny that there is tradition and as much as we say "it is what it is" that is not true. We all know that what matters and needs to be addressed is the ubiquitous "it is what it seems."

BeachLivin,

Don't have the courage to sign off your hate with your real name?

"I'd give money for that walk" --

almost 500 miles, are you kidding --

why don't you post back when you have done it --

I joined them on their journey for ONE day (about 15 miles) and I was done for - they have been at it about 12 days now (most of their days being more than 15 miles) - they are absolutely amazing

and as for Prop 8 -- you do realize that in a civil society you can't "vote" to take away the rights of a minority? Who's next . . . Jews, Christians, Hispanics, Asians, African-Americans???

Think about it people --

Medical Downside of Homosexual Behavior

A Political Agenda Is Trumping Science, Says Rick Fitzgibbons

WEST CONSHOHOCKEN, Pennsylvania, SEPT. 18, 2003
(Zenit.org).- Amid the push for same-sex unions
in Canada and the recent overturning of Texas' sodomy law, an aspect of the
underlying issue is sometimes overlooked: the medical consequences of
homosexual behavior.

God Destroyed Sodom Because of Fornication and Homosexuality

However, miss Fontaine needs to look at the entire Word of God, not just Genesis. The Bible plainly states in the New Testament, in Jude 1:7

And God spoke all these words, saying: 'I am the LORD your God…

God ten Commandments

ONE: 'You shall have no other gods before Me.'

TWO: 'You shall not make for yourself a carved image--any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.'

THREE: 'You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain.'

FOUR: 'Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.'

FIVE: 'Honor your father and your mother.'

SIX: 'You shall not murder.'

SEVEN: 'You shall not commit adultery.'

EIGHT: 'You shall not steal.'

NINE: 'You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.'

TEN: 'You shall not covet your neighbor's house; you shall not covet your neighbor's wife, nor his male servant, nor his female servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbor's

"If you love Me, keep My commandments." (John 14:15)

» "He who has My commandments and keeps them, it is he who loves Me. And he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and manifest Myself to him." (John 14:21)

» "If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and we will come to him and make Our home with him. He who does not love Me does not keep My words; and the word which you hear is not Mine but the Father's who sent Me." (John 14:23-24)

The apostle James calls the Ten Commandments "the royal law," meaning it came from a King and is worthy of His Kingdom (James 2:8-12).

God has never done away with His Ten Commandments, and they never shall be done away. They will be lived by all those given eternal life forever. They will also be the basic law of those possessing mortal life when Jesus returns. From God's commandments, all laws governing every aspect of a moral life will be drawn and applied in their spirit. Their standards will be the rule of law against which people's lives will be guided and judged.

Ann, I'm afraid you've violated commandment #9 - you shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.

Dr. Rick Fitzgibbons is echoing the research of Dr. Paul Cameron, who the American Psychological Association, the Canadian Psychological Association and the American Sociological Association denounce as consistently misinterpreting and misrepresenting research in regard to gays and lesbians.

The Fitzgibbons references above received this reply from the author of the Dutch study cited:
LIFESITE NEWS AND ONENEWSNOW HAVE MISINTERPRETED OUR REVIEW.
Evidence from around the world identifies the main stressors leading to mental distress in gay and lesbian people as discrimination, prejudice, bullying in schools and colleges, and the consequent need for many LGB people to keep their homosexual identity secret, even from their families.

Why don't you think about not adding to the hatred of your fellow human beings and love your neighbor as yourself?
