An indication that the objectives of the gay rights movement go far beyond
what any two individuals wish to do with each other can be seen in what
California has tried to impose on heterosexuals wishing to marry. According
to Focus on the Family's Citizen Link Web page, some county clerks exchanged
the words "bride" and "groom" on marriage licenses for "Party A" and "Party
B." One clerk rejected the application of Rachel Bird and Gideon Codding
because they wrote in the traditional designations for themselves. It took a
lawsuit by the Coddings, decided in their favor on Oct. 3, for the state to
back down on its "Party A" and "Party B" requirement. Couples will now be
allowed the "option" to designate themselves however they wish.
Under an Obama administration, it is not far-fetched to see the day when
liberal federal judges decide that religious organizations must lose their
tax exemptions should they refuse to employ homosexuals or others they
regard as engaging in deviant behavior.
Court challenges against those who believe homosexual behavior is sinful
seem to be occurring with greater frequency. According to Citizenlink, The
Ocean Grove Camp Meeting Association in New Jersey, which is affiliated with
the United Methodist Church, "lost part of its property tax exemption for
refusing to allow a same-sex civil union ceremony to be conducted on its
property." The state is also investigating the organization after it was
charged with violating New Jersey's nondiscrimination statutes. New Jersey
has a religious exemption law that is supposed to protect churches and
religious organizations, but it hasn't in this instance, which raises
questions about their effectiveness. The aim of the gay rights lobby is to
destroy all remnants of biblical values and societal norms.
Gay rights advocates will take their agenda to federal courts as soon as
sufficient numbers of liberal judges are there to give them what they want.
Watch them vote in overwhelming numbers for Barack Obama. He is their
future. This election is, among other things, about the future of the
majority and whether we want this country to be shaped by the courts, or by
"we the people."
