Sanctity Schmanctity

For all the Mormons out there, congratulations.  You have managed to undo something that was done in 1948.  What happened in 1948?  A law was passed allowing blacks and whites to marry.  Since then, this is the first time in California that a group has been denied a basic right because of hate and fear.  The great irony of this situation is that the Mormons fled to Utah to escape persecution because of their belief on marriage.  Decades and millions of dollars later, they turn into what they were running from.

The main arguments against gay marriage are twofold.  First, that if gay marriage were legal that the state would force the Mormon church to hold weddings of gay couples in their temples.  I can't think of one gay mormon who wants anything to do with your great and spacious buildings.  Also, if this argument were true then anyone from any religion should be able to get married in your buildings.  Does this happen?  Nope.  Idiots.

The second argument was regarding the sanctity of marriage.  Another poor argument.  How does a gay couple getting married affect your marriage?  The only way it would is if your husband were gay.  Trust me, I have been with my fair share of married Mormon men.  Sneaking around behind their wives backs, living a lie sanctioned by a church run by hate, fear and manipulation.  If you are really concerned about the sanctity of marriage how about we make divorce and adultery illegal.  And punishable by death!  That actually is in the scriptures.  Let's bring back stoning.  

The founding members of Mormonism, the original followers of Joseph Smith, were in many instances gay.  His original congregations were made up of the fringe members of society.  Gays.  Blacks.  Wickans.  Joseph Smith even spoke at a gay mans funeral talking about their love.  Bet they don't teach you that in Sunday School.  

Anyhow, I hope that the gay marriage debate crushes your church.  All this has done is show the world truly what you are made of.  Congrats.

You may also be interested that the words homosexual and gay appear nowhere in scripture you hateful fucks.

Well... I am sorry that you are so upset about the gay debate my friend. I also am interested how you respond with hate and aggression?

The church holds a fundamental position on this, and no gay members were followers of Smith, but he did reach out to them in hopes to free them of their problem and get them to overcome the temptation or otherwise natural desires that they had (which are natural via a deformity or genetic malfunction).
You might want to go back to my Blog, i have left you some scriptures that do talk about the badness of Homosexuality.

Scriptures? Really? Well I have some writings from the tooth fairy that are pretty compelling as well.

I wouldn't consider posting facts as either hateful or aggressive. I love how the religious right always cry foul when presented with a rational, well thought out argument.

Hey, I don't think arguments or acts that violate Telos are rational either.

Homosexuality is not tampering with Nature. Homosexual behavior occurs in both human and animal societies. The only choice involved in being gay is whether or not you choose to come out of the closet.
