Re: Delusions of Persecution and all that
What would you say if I tell you I've noticed that since I wrote a slightly incendiary post about homosexuality at my blog six days ago, actually pushing it some because I was wondering if it would attract censorship, my daily viewing stats have dramatically dropped since then? For years they've usually fluctuated between about 140 to 180 a day, rising above 200 with the more popular topics, the highest ever being over 700, but over the last three days they dropped to 68 on the 3rd, 40 yesterday and 10 today. Unprecedented. I've written a few posts on different topics since the questionable one. Seems to me cutting off viewers is a form of censorship though not a method I would have anticipated.
Who do you think is censoring you? The idiocy you display in this reasoning is amazing. Do you think maybe you have just hit the point of where people are tired of reading your hate?

Faith you wouldn't know logic if it hit you on the head. Please explain how your statement does not meet the No True Scotsman fallacy.

Re: Yes it is the lowest kind of propaganda
Massachusetts seems to be doing quite well. Was their last month. I didn't smell any brimstone at all. There were no pedophiles assaulting children on the streets. As a matter of fact Boston seemed like any city, if anything, cleaner and safer.
So again tell me what happens to societies that allow gay marriage?

Re: Yes it is the lowest kind of propaganda
Have you ever heard of the internet? There is this thing called the google or the bing.
Here is a page from something that seems to be pretty new. Wikipedia.
History of same-sex unions - Wikipedia
You can read can't you?

Re: Yes it is the lowest kind of propaganda
Who was destroyed by god's wrath? Last month when I was there Massachusetts was doing quite well. How does one determine if a place has suffered some sort of divine wrath? No good kosher food?
If anyplace should suffer the wrath it should be MA. There is shellfish on the menu everywhere. Also, I think I saw a shirt made of cotton and polyester. I am surprised that person was not smote right before my eyes.

If the people voted, the court had no right to overturn it.
There is your problem you have no idea how the US government works. I think you need to take a civics class.
Do you think people in the south voted to overturn segregation? Slavery was the peoples will in certain states too.

Re: Popular opinion cannot over rule the Constitution.
Take a basic civics course. You obviously do not understand what the US Constitution says. The people nor legislatures, nor the executive can implement laws that the judiciary determines are unconstitutional. You do not get to decide what is unconstitutional, the courts do.
ABE
And by the way Nazi leaders used propaganda to create the will of the people.
Churches use propaganda to create the will of the people now.

Re: Popular opinion cannot over rule the Constitution.
Even Jefferson and Washington treated them as criminal.
Blacks and whites marrying was criminal.
Blacks, women or men without property voting, was criminal.
Helping a person escape slavery(or indentured servitude) was criminal.
Married women had absolutely no rights.
Shall I continue?

Segregation WAS against the Constitution. That is not true of a ban on gay marriage..
Please show where either are mentioned in the Consitution.

but heterosexuals also have to deny themselves sex outside of legitimate marriage.
No they don't. If this is a criteria for your heaven, not many people will be there.
I was married in a civil ceremony, no religious ceremony at all, does this mean my wife and I are living in sin and she is going to hell?

A lot of our current social mores are actually quite new historically. The 19th century victorian age is responsible for the some of the utter prudishness we see today. There was never this golden age of strict social mores that Faith and other fundies harken back to.
That time actually never existed.
