And this is why I will NEVER be a member of a Christian Church!
I only go to houses of worship for weddings and funerals, and that's where I was on Saturday, in a Methodist church in Dallas watching my friend's son get married. After the pastor did his "dearly beloved" thing--IOW, just about 5 sentences into the ceremony--he actually said: "John and Mary stand before God as Male and Female--as God created and intended, only Male and Female can come together in holy matrimony."
I was so disgusted, it took all my effort not to walk out. Please tell me why a pastor would need to interject his homophobia into a wedding ceremony? Is Christianity so fragile that the believers need to validate it at every turn?
:bouncy: Funny how they remember word for word with these stories.

No, but liberalism is that fragile.
Liberalism is so fragile, you guys need to constantly make up bouncies.
Normal, well adjusted people, they don't do that.

Let's look at what the Bible says:
Genesis 2:18-24 And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him. And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof. And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field; but for Adam there was not found an help meet for him. And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof; And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man. And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man. Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.
When God decided that it wasn't good for MAN to be alone He didn't create another man. He created a WOMAN. Then God said that a MAN shall cleave unto his WIFE. The root form of the word "wife", according to Strong's, is 'ishshah which means: woman, wife, female.
Looks like the preacher's statement was following God's wishes. He's also probably not scared (phobic) of homosexuals. He just knows right from wrong.

A Christian minister in a Christian church performing a Christian service that validates Christianity. Whoda thunk it? :whatever:
If you don't want to hear Christianity validated, perhaps being in a Christian church isn't the right place. Did you actually think it was going to be a secular thing?

Because at every turn, you pillow biters relentlessly try to redefine what 'marriage' really means. You're just angry because someone reaffirmed it in your presence, and deep down inside, you knew you were wrong, and you felt convicted.

Only a liberal is dumb enough to enter a church and bitch that Christianity is being discussed. :banghead:

At least they're consistent.

The Democrats managed to silence political speech on the private property of churches decades ago. Since then, they've managed to have crosses and nativities removed from public sight all across the country, and made it nearly illegal to mention the name of Christ in public hearing (unless it's used as a curse). It's only a matter of time before they decide to remove "hate" speech from the private property of churches, also...

Ah, the church bouncies. Always interesting to see the DUmmies venting their own massive hatred of the Christian faith.

I heard a song the other day: "It's Called Christmas With A Capital 'C'," by Go Fish.
In the middle of the song, there is a commentary that goes something like:
"You know why people are offended by Christmas? Because it has "Christ" in it. Amazing, isn't it. 2000 years later, and He's STILL intimidating people!"
Ain't it the truth!

pink-o sounds like a good choice for a pork dipped bullet.

Here's another item for the twinkies to realize: Even if the State were to at some point recognize homosexual marriage as being legit, God never will. When all is said and done, you'll be forever in a heap of trouble.

If the Bible started with only 2 men or only 2 women it would have been a very short book.

Bestiality.
Still practiced to this day among liberals.

One has to wonder where they would find meaning in their lives if they couldn't be offended by something every day. Can't just let one sentence reflective of someone's personal beliefs go and simply enjoy the wedding of a friend's son who thought enough of their friendship to invite him.

Isn't this similar to me showing up at a NOW meeting and then being shocked at the self-professed man hatred from the speaker?

Of course not.
Don't forget, DUmmies have let their entire miserable lives be driven and defined by their politics. For that reason, it would be impossible to simply enjoy a nice occasion like that.
