What The ‘Gay Marriage’ Debate Is Really About

[mark francis]

You said Christians generally don't support gay marriage yet 41 percent do that's a big percentage

I even posted a whole denomination officially supports it, ucc. Their website will list their churches

I do believe more and more religious people are beginning to support sodomy, sexual promiscuity and perversion but God remainsa fixed in His opposition to such wickedness.

Leftists stupidly claim republicans argued against the bill in support of Trump. Not a single lawmaker cited Trump in opposing arguments against the bill. The Trump lie is a typical dirty dfemocrat tactic that ignorant democrat supporters eat up like hog slop. Let's examine facts instead of yielding to dishonest hype:

'Not ‘no,’ this is ‘not now': Texas GOP congressional delegation stands against border bill
Maria Recio

Special to the American-Statesman

WASHINGTON — Texas Republican lawmakers in Congress, who represent a state with the most to win from a hard-nosed U.S. border package, stood firmly against a bipartisan deal that was blocked Wednesday by a 50-49 Senate vote and left on life support in a pivotal procedural decision. ...

Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, who as a high-profile border state senator had been monitoring the monthslong negotiations, voted against the bill, as did U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas. Both Texas senators have endorsed Trump for president.

“This proposal is not what the country needs, wants or deserves,” Cornyn said Tuesday in a speech on the Senate floor.

“The biggest concern I have is the parole powers that — to release people in the interior — has been unchanged in the bill,” he told reporters. The bill does not restrict the Biden administration’s humanitarian parole policy, which has become a lightning rod for criticism from the right for letting in large numbers of migrants from a few select countries.

“It’s going to continue to be a huge magnet for mass migration, so it doesn't really solve the problem,” said Cornyn.

He said of Wednesday’s vote, "This is not ‘no’; this is ‘not now,’" adding that senators should go back to the drawing board. “We need a major policy shift, not a fig leaf,” Cornyn said. ...

"The Senate border deal is a failure on two fronts,” Cruz said on X, formerly Twitter. “It codifies catch and release, gives billions to NGOs, and normalizes 1.8M illegal aliens yearly. ...

Cruz said, “There is a 0% chance this failed border bill will pass the House. It effectively normalizes 5,000 illegal aliens crossing the border per day — more than 1.8 million per year. This is not a real solution. It is all about political messaging.” ...

U.S. Rep. Michael McCaul, R-Austin, who as a member of the House Committee on Homeland Security has helped lead an impeachment effort against Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas over the border crisis, said on Fox News’ Varney & Co.: “The Republicans in the House believe the president has enough executive authority to change the situation overnight (and) return to the policies of the prior administration — Trump — that were working, like 'Remain in Mexico.' That’s not in this bill.” ...

U.S. Rep. Chip Roy, R-Hays County, who has been one of the loudest voices in Congress agitating for border controls, said: “The Senate’s bill is an open-borders bargain — not border security. This bill is an endorsement of the status quo and Biden’s border chaos so they can give Ukraine another blank check.” ...

Echoing his GOP colleagues, U.S. Rep. John Carter, R-Round Rock, said: "It's a bad deal. The House has already passed a strong border security bill in H.R. 2, but the Senate has ignored it and instead put forward something that normalizes the chaos Biden has caused at the border. We need to secure the border, and the Senate bill isn't how we do it."

U.S. Rep. Roger Williams, R-Willow Park, described the bill as a “raw deal" and said it was “amnesty for those who can get here first and fast and leaves our border wide open.”

“It shouldn’t receive one vote in the American Congress,” Williams said. “I will do everything I can to see it doesn’t pass.”

Republicans whined about the border then refused to consider a border bill lol
Hypocrites

The Supreme Court has ruled that marriage is a right between two consulting adults.

It is the CHRISTIANS that locked up gays in prison and mental institutions for generations.

THEY are the ones that claim to have the only true religion that everyone should follow.

LBTGQ people do not have any difficulty finding a church person to marry them.

Early laws in America did legalize slavery and did condemn sexual promiscuity and perversion. Christians may have wrongly supported slavery then but those who support sexual perversions also oppose God.

You talk like a democrat dummy as though you have no idea why good lawmakers opposed a bad bill.

Why does God create gays if he doesn't support gates God must be stupid

God condemns sodomy, sexual immorality, and sexual perversion. To hell with the alternate opinions of churches.

God has never uttered a word against those pet hates of yours. It doesn't exist.
I note a little frustration that your well meaning adoration of religion is copping a thrashing. You'll get used to it.
To hell with old godbotherers also.

Immigration grows when the US economy is prosperous. It is driven by supply and demand. The US is presently the best place on Earth in which to invest money, and so money is flowing in from everywhere. More money means more new businesses and more new businesses means more demand for labor.
The bipartisan immigration bill should be passed IMMEDIATELY, as it solves many of the problems with amnesty. But Trump knows that he has LOST votes by ending Roe v. Wade, which a majority of Americans thought was the solution, and he needs to blather and rant about something else, so he wants to holler about "sealing the border" which will never happen, and deporting the people we depend on to harvest vegetables and fruit and to process meat, shingle houses and construct new homes.
Trump is a nasty, ignorant stupid little man, a rapey blowhard in a diaper, whose modus operandi has always been to hire lawyers to lie for him and serve jail time for his crimes.
The best solution to our countries' political polarization problems is the Second Amendment.

Trump needs to reserve some Prime Time and Second Amendment himself on prime time Teevee.
I am reminded of Eddie Chibás doing this very thing on CMQ Radio in Havana in January, 1951.

He was the favored presidential candidate at the time.
