what is it about some of these self proclaimed "christians" who go seeking persecution when it don't exist?.
we've had a case locally in calgary where the initial reports sounded like the person had a legitimate claim: a bus driver didn't want to drive the bus in a gay pride parade and said he'd resign if they made him and that the local transit company was threatening him to force him to do it.. except it was all invented ... by him !.
they already proactively told him that there was no danger that he would be asked to drive that bus in the parade (i.e.
Dumplin: "I agree Vidiot..."
Naughty doggie, I think you were referring to Village Idiot.
I've only had association with a few Liberal Christians and one too many with Conservative/Fundamentalist Christians but I can tell you that Liberals are more kickback and relaxed than the others who despise them for being such.
This is how high up this mentality is:

One thing that needs to be realized is that we are dealing with an issue set forth by Fundamentalist Christians which are a minority of all those who self identify as Christian. Liberal Christians, their Bible notwithstanding, have no dog in this fight. Many of them support Gay rights and some even have Gay clergy.
We are doing the Fundamentalist a favor by calling them "Christians" as if they represent the others who are in the 85% of the US Christian population. Fundamentalists despise them (in private) and refer to them as not "the right type of Christian". They should be referred to as Fundamentalist Christians by everybody else in order to emphasize that they are a minority in this nation. That will dull some of their self righteous halo.
while many think that the ruling is good for the gays and their response is: how does that affect your marriage; then on the other side the religious people cry god and sinners.
but both are missing the forest through the trees.. the problem with the ruling is that which is discussed here so many times.
five unelected federal officials decided on policy for the whole country, running roughshod over every democratic principle.

Here is a temperature map from February 2015 courtesy of the Goddard Institute for Space Studies which shows how the temperatures were distributed. 97% were temperatures that were as warm, warmer or much hotter than average.
The graph at the bottom of the map is measured in degrees Celsius (1Celsius = 1.8 Fahrenheit). On the map you will find Alaska and Siberia were 7.2 - 15.48F warmer than in the past. Ironically the temperatures for that month were colder than average for 3% of the globe which included 1/3 of the United States.

I'm going to crosspost this from the jumpsuit thread:
Some county officials in Southern states — including Cleburne County Clerk Dana Guffey in Heber Springs, Ark.; Decatur County Clerk Gwen Pope and two others in Decaturville, Tenn.; and Rusk County Clerk Joyce Lewis-Kugle in Henderson, Texas — have resigned rather than issue licenses to same-sex couples. Alabama law says county probate judges in the state “may” issue marriage licenses, so some counties have ceased providing the service.
That's the example to follow.

"It would be hypocritical of me to lambast the Watchtower society, and then turn around and embrace this movement, for it stands against everything I hold dear--freedom of speech, freedom of religion, etc etc."
You and those like you remind me of the Confederates who went to war because they wanted the freedom to take other people's freedoms away. After decades of being verbally bullied, harassed at their jobs even beaten and raped (a lesbian) gays are now getting the freedom they deserve.
Too bad for you and your fellow worshippers of your demon god.
