ALL CHRISTIANS SPEAK FOR CHRIST.....This is what Christ told his followers to do. " Anyone who hears you..hears me".[/quote] Funny, I don't remember Christ telling his followers to rejoice in the persecution of others. [quote][b]jade said:[/b] Yes!!!! Great news.[/quote] Do you think that Christ would have said the following words? [quote]"Almighty God created the races white, black, yellow, malay and red, and he placed them on separate continents. And but for the interference with his arrangement there would be no cause for such marriages. The fact that he separated the races shows that he did not intend for the races to mix."[/quote] This was the argument by Christians in the south opposing interracial marriage. Something that was illegal in many southern states until the Supreme Court declared the laws unconstitutional in 1967. The only reason that politicians are pushing for bans on gay marriage is for political gain. At least one politician that I know of has stated that banning gay marriage is the most important issue in the nation right now. Where are they living? Under a rock? How about a war in Iraq and Afghanistan? How about homelessness, AIDS, the sad state of our education system, the economy, crime, loss of freedoms and civil rights, unemployment, health care, drugs. If they were only doing it because it was the "Christian thing to do" I would hope they would be focusing on things more in line with the teachings of Christ. You know, like feeding the hungry, etc, etc. All of the millions of dollars spent on fighting to ban gay marriage could be put to so many better uses, don't you think? What about the people out in the streets protesting gay marriage. What if they were to focus on something more productive instead. For example tutoring children at underperforming schools, helping out habitat for humanity build houses, working in a soup kitchen, starting youth programs, you get the idea.
