Hannity Asks Is the gay marriage ruling an attack on Christianity

Democratic Senator says..."That religious protection offered by the Constitution ONLY for religious institutions."  Which, means that individuals will not have the right to disagree with the far left homosexual agenda.  Business owners will NOT be afforded religious exemptions from having the nefarious gay agenda forced upon them by threat of finical ruin or even jail. 

Humanity's homosexual guest Brian Silva says that the baking company who did not want to bake a cake for a same sex marriage should be either forced by threat of incarceration or finical ruin to bake the cake.  So, there is no room in America any longer for Christians. Now, either Christians go along quietly with the new homosexual agenda or they will be imprisoned or financially ruined. 

Gay Marriage has ALWAYS been about the destruction of the Christian Church.

No where in any of the newspapers, radio programs, cable networks has ANYONE stood up for the Christians. Anyone, who dares speak up and say that the homosexual lifestyle is one of sin and depravity is vilified.  Any Christian Pastor who refuses to back down is being labeled as a bigot, homophobic, hateful, non-inclusive, etc. 

The vitriol from the left and homosexual lobbyists will only intensify until either there is a back lash from BIBLE believing Christians or simply the Churches  quietly surrender.  To those who think that the Christian Churches should, just get along to go along, be nice and all of this insanity will blow over this is just the beginning. Much like dealing with Hitler, appeasement will NOT work, not, with the far left and certainly NOT with the homosexual lobby.   They want to remake mankind in their image.  They want all of mankind to join with them in their perversion or be silent  and dare not mention that the Emperor has no clothes.     

Gay marriage was just the first shot across the bow. The far left and those who desire a One World Government ruled by an untouchable ELITE  have begun open warfare against all Christians.   If 1950 if people were told that homosexuality would be the law of the land in 2015 no one would have believed you.  Well, it is 2015 and I'm telling you now that in less then 25 years Christianity will be outlawed in the United States. 

 It is already illegal to read from certain parts of the BIBLE in the European Union and in Canada.  If a homosexual is offended in Canada they can sue for financial damages. This has happened many times and in every circumstance the homosexual won and the Christian was FORCED by threat of incarceration to pay.  The war against Christians has been going on for some time it is only now that the ELITE have brought it out into the open.

No one living in darkness wants the light shinned upon them. The reason that the Far Left and the homosexual lobby hate Christianity so much is because it is the truth. 

 The word of GOD is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart. Hebrews 4:12

Homosexuality has ZERO to do with gay marriage.

Fact 1- Homosexual marriage degrades a time-honored institution

Homosexual marriage is an empty pretense that lacks the fundamental sexual function of a male and female coupling.  And like all counterfeits, it cheapens and degrades the real thing. The destructive effects may not be immediately apparent, but the cumulative damage is inescapable. 

Fact 2 - Homosexual marriage would radically redefine marriage to include virtually any sexual behavior

Once marriage is no longer confined to a man and a woman, and the sole criterion becomes the presence of "love" and "mutual commitment," it is impossible to exclude virtually any "relationship" between two or more partners of either sex. 

To those who scoff at concerns that gay marriage could lead to the acceptance of other harmful and widely-rejected sexual behaviors, it should be pointed out that until very recent times the very suggestion that two women or two men could "marry" would have been greeted with scorn. 

The movement to redefine marriage has already found full expression in what is variously called "polyfidelity" or "polyamory," which seeks to replace traditional marriage with a bewildering array of sexual combinations among various groups of individuals.

Fact 3 - Homosexual marriage is not a civil rights issue

Defining marriage as the union of a man and a woman would not deny homosexuals the basic civil rights accorded other citizens. Nowhere in the Bill of Rights or in any legislation proceeding from it are homosexuals excluded from the rights enjoyed by all citizens--including the right to marry. 

However, no citizen has the unrestricted right to marry whomever they want. A person cannot marry a child, a close blood relative, two or more spouses, or the husband or wife of another person. Such restrictions are based upon the accumulated wisdom not only of Western civilization but also of societies and cultures around the world for millennia. 
 

Fact 4 - Upholding traditional marriage is not "discrimination"

Discrimination occurs when someone is unjustly denied some benefit or opportunity. But it must first be demonstrated that such persons deserve to be treated equally regarding the point in question. For example, FAA and airline regulations rightly discriminate regarding who is allowed into the cockpit of an airplane. 

Those who are not trained pilots have no rightful claim to "discrimination" because they are denied the opportunity to fly an airplane.   Similarly, the accumulated wisdom of thousands of years of human history, as expressed in virtually all cultures, has defined marriage as between a man and a woman.

Fact 5 - Any comparison with interracial marriage is phony

Laws against interracial marriage sought to add a requirement to marriage that is not intrinsic to the institution of marriage. Allowing a black man to marry a white woman, or vice versa, does not change the fundamental definition of marriage, which requires a man and a woman. Homosexual marriage, on the other hand, is the radical attempt to discard this most basic biology.
 

Fact 6 - Homosexual marriage would subject children to unstable home environments

Many homosexuals and their sex partners may sincerely believe they can be good parents. But children are not guinea pigs for grand social experiments in redefining marriage, and should not be placed in settings that are unsuitable for raising children.  

• Transient relationships: While a high percentage of married couples remain married for up to 20 years or longer, with many remaining wedded for life, the vast majority of homosexual relationships are short-lived and transitory. This has nothing to do with alleged "societal oppression." A study in the Netherlands , a gay-tolerant nation that has legalized homosexual marriage, found the average duration of a homosexual relationship to be one and a half years.
• Serial promiscuity: Studies indicate that while three-quarters or more of married couples remain faithful to each other, homosexual couples typically engage in a shocking degree of promiscuity. The same Dutch study found that "committed" homosexual couples have an average of eight sexual partners (outside of the relationship) per year.   Children should not be placed in unstable households with revolving bedroom doors

Fact 7 - Homosexual activists have a political agenda: to radically alter society

Homosexual activists admit that their goal is not simply to make the definition of marriage more "inclusive," but to remake it in their own fallen image. 
 Paula Ettelbrick, former legal director of the Lambda Legal Defense and Education Fund, states, "Being queer means transforming the very fabric of society." 

 

Fact 8 - NOW, victorious, the homosexual agenda will lead to the persecution of those who object on moral or religious grounds

If homosexual marriage becomes the law of the land, then children in public schools will be taught that homosexuality is a normative lifestyle, and that gay households are just another "variant" style of family.  Those who object may find themselves on the wrong side of the law.  Unbelievable?  This Orwellian situation has occurred in Massachusetts , which legalized homosexual marriage in 2004.  In April 2005, David Parker, the parent of a six-year-old boy, protested to the Lexington elementary school after his son was taught about homosexual "families" in his kindergarten class.  

At a scheduled meeting at the school, when Parker refused to back down from his request that the school honor the Massachusetts parental notification statute, he was arrested for "trespassing," handcuffed, and put in jail overnight.  The next morning Parker was led handcuffed into court for his arraignment, and over the next several months endured two subsequent court appearances before the school district backed down and decided to drop all charges against him.  

 In 2007, Parker's lawsuit against the Lexington school officials was dismissed by a federal judge who refused to uphold his civil rights and to enforce the Massachusetts parental notification statute.  Parker's shocking story will become commonplace in a society that forces the acceptance of homosexual marriage as normative. 

FACT 9 - Gay Marriage has NEVER been about homosexuals getting married. It has ALWAYS been about re-engineering society.  Gay Marriage has ALWAYS been about removing from Christian Churches the moral high ground.  By forcing gay marriage upon the American people; those who are seeking to subjugate Christians now have the legal ability to silence the Church. 

FACT 10 -  Homosexuality is an aberration. Homosexuals make up less then 1-3 percent of the population.  Why should all of human history from time immemorial suddenly recognize a biological dead end.  The reproductive organs are designed for reproduction.  The orgasm and sexual attraction is biologically necessary for the continuance of the species.  After all, could you EVER see men and women getting together otherwise?  Homosexuality has nothing to do with gay marriage.

Destroying the Churches

In a landmark opinion, a divided Supreme Court on Friday ruled that same-sex couples can marry nationwide, establishing a new civil right and handing gay rights advocates a historic victory. 

In the 5-4 ruling, Justice Anthony Kennedy wrote for the majority with the four liberal justices. Each of the four conservative justices wrote their own dissent.

The entire reason the GAY agenda was forced upon the American people was so that the ELITE who want a one world government could bring down the Christian Churches.  A One World Government where the people have no rights, no socio-ethnic identity, no religious beliefs, no morality this is what the ELITE are working towards. 

In order for the ELITES who are re-engineering the cultural identities of all mankind have begun by erasing the Folkways which  are often referred to as "customs." They are standards of behavior that are socially approved but not morally significant. They are norms for everyday behavior that people follow for the sake of tradition or convenience. Breaking a folkway does not usually have serious consequences. A Folkway is One Man adn One Woman constitute  a marriage, a family unit.

 

Mores
Mores are strict norms that control moral and ethical behavior. Mores are norms based on definitions of right and wrong.  Unlike folkways, mores are morally significant. People feel strongly about them and violating them typically results in disapproval.  Religious Faith is an example of mores. 


Taboos
A taboo is a norm that society holds so strongly that violating it results in extreme disgust. Often times the violator of the taboo is considered unfit to live in that society. Homosexuality has been for thousands of years and still is taboo among normal healthy Heterosexuals.

Laws
A law is a norm that is written down and enforced by an official law enforcement agency.  Since, the ELITES could not persuade most healthy heterosexual people that homosexuality is normal they have resorted to FORCING by the threat of LEGAL punishment normal heterosexual people to accept  homosexuality.

  

All of societies Folkways, Mores, Taboos, and Laws have been manipulated and re-written, and forced upon an unsuspecting public.  None of this is new, this has all happened before. When the Bolsheviks seized control of a Christian Russia they knew that in order to control the populace they would have to destroy the Russian people and then rebuild them in their image.  Stalin took a many tiered  approach, the main 2 being the destruction of the Church followed by the annihilation of the family unit.    A stable society is so because of the strong family unit and a morally upright populace which is normally the influence of religious faith.  In order for Stalin to destroy the family unit he went about setting mother against daughter, father against his own son.  The caveat was that through the public schools the Communist ideology was forced upon the Russian children.  

Then, Stalin went about dismantling the Russian Christian faith.  He did this by closing Churches, making Churches the enemy of the people.   Then, Stalin brought the weight of the Communist government against the Churches. The Christian faith was outlawed in Communist Russia.  All the Churches assets and property was seized by the State.  If a Russian man or woman wanted to work they had to disavow their Christian Faith. If the children wanted to attend higher learning they had to belong to families which did not attend Church.

Once Stalin had robbed children of their parents influence and removed their Christian faith the new generation of Soviet youth would only worship one master the Soviet State. 

 

The ELITES here in America now have the means legally to begin to shut down the Churches.  The gay agenda was always aimed at the destruction of the American Churches.  Just as Stalin seized all the Churches lands and assets in Soviet Union,  the Solicitor General of the United States candidly acknowledged that the tax exemptions of  ANY religious institutions would be in question if they opposed same-sex marriage. 

Christian  Churches could lose their tax-exempt status with the IRS if they refuse to recognize the Supreme Court’s ruling Friday legalizing gay marriage in all 50 states, Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts warned in his dissenting opinion.
He cited a comment made months ago by the U.S. government’s top lawyer on the same-sex marriage case.
“Hard questions arise when people of faith exercise religion in ways that may be seen to conflict with the new right to same-sex marriage — when, for example, a religious college provides married student housing only to opposite-sex married couples, or a religious adoption agency declines to place children with same-sex married couples,” Roberts wrote.

“Indeed, the Solicitor General candidly acknowledged that the tax exemptions of some religious institutions would be in question if they opposed same-sex marriage. See Tr. of Oral Arg. on Question 1, at 36–38.

 There is little doubt that these and similar questions will soon be before this Court. Unfortunately, people of faith can take no comfort in the protection of the Constitution of the United States of America. 

TPP Grants Corporations Terrifying Secret Powers

The Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) is a proposed regional regulatory and investment treaty. As of 2014, twelve countries throughout the Asia Pacific region have participated in negotiations on the TPP: Australia, Brunei, Canada, Chile, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore, the United States, and Vietnam. If accepted it would be
the largest trade deal in history representing 792 million people and about 40% of the world economy.

The proposed agreement began in 2005 as the Trans-Pacific Strategic Economic Partnership Agreement (TPSEP or P4). Participating countries set the goal of wrapping up negotiations in 2012, but contentious issues such as agriculture, intellectual property, and services and investments have caused negotiations to continue into the present, with the last round meeting in Ottawa from 3–12 July 2014. Implementation of the TPP is one of the primary goals of the trade agenda of the Obama administration in the United States of America.

TPP is about corporations sezing control and ownership of all public lands, waters, oceans etc.  This is a real reason why TPP is being fast tracked, and kept secret from public scrutiny.  The public is not being allowed to read or examine anything that is in the TPP documents for at least 5 years AFTER the treaty is signed. 

The last I checked the United States is a Republic.  America is a nation of people not a collection of corporations who have at their disposal 300 million slaves.   That our leaders of forcing this criminal treaty in secret and behind closed doors speaks volumes as to whom it benefits.  


In  May 2012, United States Senator Ron Wyden (D-OR) introduced S. 3225, which would have required the Office of the US Trade Representative to disclose its TPP documents to all members of Congress.  Big surprise, it failed.  In In 2013, even yellow dog Democrats,  Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass) and Rep. Alan Grayson (D-Fla.) sharply criticised the obama administration's Orwellian  secrecy policies.

TPP in it's entirety places corporations above governments.  An example being  the "Investor State Resolution" clauses that allow foreign companies to sue to overturn national labor and environmental laws. So, if another country doesn't like US labor laws the corporation can sue the federal government and force it to enact unfair labor laws.  Great for the corporation, bad for the already beleaguered American worker who is being squeezed on all sides. 


TPP  gives unprecedented power to the multinational corporations. TPP creates an international tribunal  outside any nation's legal system, that can order compensation for lost expected profits resulting from a nation's regulations. Which, means that if a corporation could make more money by hurting US workers then the US must either give in to this new trade concession or pay, out of the tax payers pocket, the corporation for lost profits.    

Sovereign rights will be conceded, by the signing of the TPP, to foreign corporations and that will be forever.  The wording of TPP makes it so that all who sign will do so in perpetuity. TPP places corporations above governments and places public health, labor laws, or even environmental rules at the behest of the corporation who have NO thought other then to make money.  

The very people of America would become corporate slaves who because of TPP no longer have a say in how our country is run.  Add to that, TPP would allow forigen corporations to have their hand in how the United States is governed and what it's laws will be.

The deal would encourage and reward American corporations for outsourcing even more jobs abroad. And it does nothing to prevent other nations from manipulating their currencies to boost their exports and undermine the competitiveness of U.S.-made products.

The only reason US officials would even think of signing this nightmare partnership is because they are KNOWINGLY laying the foundations for a One World Government.  The TPP hamstrings the United States and signs over sovereignty to foreign interests.  If TPP was so wonderful then why is it being done in secrecy? Why is this administration trying to force this treaty though by fast track?   What is the White House afraid will happen if there is open and honest  transparency?    

Supreme Court is Going to Force Gay Marriage upon America

Hillary Clinton just spoke at 2015 Women in the World Summit.  In her speech she let it be known that Christians will have to change their religious beliefs or be forced to by legal legislation.  

Her exact words were..."Deep seated biased Religious beliefs will HAVE to be changed..." 

The United States Constitution  on the Freedom of Religion....

The part of the Bill of Rights that is most important to the separation debate is the First Amendment, in particular, the two religion clauses of the first Amendment. These clauses deal precisely with the issue of what government can and cannot do with respect to religion. Below, we lay out the wording of these clauses, and what is at issue in their interpretation.
The establishment clause makes up the first ten words of the First Amendment. It reads as follows:

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion...

The free exercise clause makes up the next six words of the Amendment. It reads as follows:

or prohibit the free exercise thereof;

Together, these clauses comprise the most specific statement in the Constitution about the powers of the federal government over religion. It is interesting, for example, to note that both clauses are phrased in the negative, that is, they describe what the federal government cannot do with respect to religion.

Now, in 2015 the United States Supreme Court, by deciding that gay marriage is the law of the land, will FORCE by threat of financial penalties and taxes the FREE Exercise of Religion to be impinged upon. 
 
 Once the SCOTUS rules that homosexuals have the right to marry ALL Christian, Churches, business, institutions will be FORCED by law to deny their deeply held religious Faith. This means that the Catholic Church will be forced to marry homosexual couples.  It means that Christian business owners Churches, Foundations, individuals  will become 2nd class citizens. Homosexuals who make up less then  1 percent of this nation will be a specially protected class of citizens who rights superseded the rest of this nation. 
 

Make no mistake, the SCOTUS ruling is a deliberate, planned assault upon Christianity.   Just as the NAZI's denied the rights of Jews in Germany in the 1930's; TPTB hidden within the bureaucracy are slowly removing, brick by brick, the foundations, upon which the United States stands, the family. 


Once the American family is destroyed by silencing those who believe in GOD and removing their Constitutional right to freely practice their Faith, the children of this once great nation will be led by the hand into sexual depravity.  Then, by design the STATE can begin it's indoctrination into the new age of Human enlightenment...

 "Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law."

Texas Hedging bet Against Fed

 

Texas Governor Greg Abbott signed a bill into law on Friday, June 12, that will allow Texas to build a gold and silver bullion depository. In addition, Texas will repatriate $1 billion worth of bullion from the Federal Reserve in New York to the new facility once completed. 


 Abbott said.. 'I signed HB 483 to provide a secure facility for the State of Texas, state agencies and Texas citizens to store gold bullion and other precious metals. With the passage of this bill, the Texas Bullion Depository will become the first state-level facility of its kind in the nation, increasing the security and stability of our gold reserves and keeping taxpayer funds from leaving Texas to pay for fees to store gold in facilities outside our state.”


We are not talking Fort Knox. But when I first announced this, I got so many emails and phone calls from people literally all over the world who said they want to store their gold … in a Texas depository. People have this image of Texas as big and powerful … so for a lot of people, this is exactly where they would want to go with their gold.”

Secession Coming? Texas Pulls Gold!

 

 
 Why does the state of Texas want to go through the trouble of building its own storage facility? There are precisely two important reasons. One involves distrust in the current storage system. The second threatens the paper money system as a whole.

Distrust of the Fed

“In a lot of cases with gold you may not have clear title to the metal. You may have a counterparty relationship that makes you a creditor. If the counterparty has a problem unrelated to gold, they can default and then you become an unsecured creditor in bankruptcy,” said Keith Weiner, president of the Gold Standard Institute.
This means you get whatever is left after liquidation, often just a fraction of the initial value of your holdings.

This exact scenario happened with futures broker MF Global. Gold investors who had warehouse receipts to gold bars with a specific serial number. But that gold had an encumbered title and they became unsecured creditors in bankruptcy. 
 
In Texas, two big public pension funds from the University of Texas (UoT) and the Teacher Retirement System (TRS) own gold worth more than $1 billion.

Being uncomfortable with holding purely financial gold in the form of futures and Exchange-traded Funds, University of Texas actually took delivery of the gold bars in 2011 and warehoused it with HSBC Bank in New York.

Think on this...

 

 COMEX at this time has about $80 billion of open interest between futures and futures options.  In their physical possession they ONLY had $2.7 billion of actual GOLD.
 
It is obvious to those who are paying attention... There is far more financial gold (Paper Gold) out there than actual physical bars of GOLD. 

 Texas is now going to be it's OWN Gold depository, the gold is going to be physically located in TEXAS.  

Those in the know may be speculating that the FED may soon have a problem for which it is not prepared. The power brokers in TEXAS do not want to find out that their GOLD bullion investment is simply paper representing gold which is not actually real.



The Real Power behind this bill and I believe the true reason this bill was passed.


The TEXAS bill also includes a provision to prevent seizure, which is important for private parties who want to avoid another 1933 style confiscation of their bullion by Federal authorities.

Section A2116.023 of the bill states: “A purported confiscation, requisition, seizure, or other attempt to control the ownership … is void ab initio and of no force or effect.” Effectively, the state of Texas will protect any gold stored in the depository from the FED.

With that in mind,  free from the threat of confiscation, private citizens can use gold and silver as money, completely bypassing the paper money system.  Bypassing the FED.

“People can legally do that with gold contracts. The difficulty is the implementation. Now Texas has set up a mechanism with the TEXAS Gold depository. We have accounts in that institution and can easily transfer back and forth certain amounts. So, now TEXAS can run it's own money system using gold or silver as a basis.  Again, bypassing the FED.

Real Bravery Real Men

 

Specialist Jacob William Moore, 21, stares into the distance as he clutches the hand of a seriously wounded comrade on board a medevac air ambulance racing towards Kandahar Air Field in southern Afghanistan. Spc Moore was part of a stretcher team carrying a wounded man to safety when they hit a second explosive device, buried in their path. 

The men, from the 2-502 Infantry’s Attack Company were operating in Nalgham, in Zhari district. Two Americans and one Afghan soldier were killed in the attacks, four others, including Spc Moore, were wounded.
The troops are part of the 101st Airborne Division – known as the screaming eagles – were sent to Afghanistan.

This is Bravery, this is men doing the impossible, while facing the unthinkable.  

This...

This macabre caricature of a man is the antithetical opposite of brave. 

 

The All Out Assault Against Heterosexual Men

The all assault against contact sport playing, walking tall, red meat eating, fast driving, upright, honest, no backing down, Cowboy hat wearing, bass playing, whiskey drinking, woman chasing, freedom loving, 2 barrel shotgun blasting, base stealing, hockey fighting, backseat of a mustang love making, tire burning, wheels screaming, tank driving, MLRS loading, Army, Marine Corps, Navy, Air Force volunteering, tobacco spiting, beer pong champion, Texas Hold'em million dollar pot betting, strip poker playing, bull fighting, home run hitting, bare knuckle boxing, MMA fighting, PHAT Ass loving, leg man, breast man, all around ladies man, God's gift to women, truck driving, heavy equipment operating, long shore loading, deep sea fishing, cave diving, paratrooper wing wearing, Navy Seal killing, Infantry stomping, 9-5 working, weekend loving, red blood American Males ends HERE...! 

Screw the Hollywood elite, the globalists, and the far left sissies. No normal person looks at the debacle of a 65 year old man stuffing bags of silicone in his chest and wearing a dress as normal. Putting a dress and wig on does NOT make you a woman. Bruce Jenner is a disgrace to himself and to his family. His own son was horrified by Bruce's mutilation of himself.  No surprise that the far left liberal obama just thinks the world of Bruce. 

In no way is Bruce being brave, the US Marines at Iwo Jima were brave.  The men and women of law enforcement, the fire department who risk their lives everyday are brave.  Bruce is nothing but the far left's puppet. The rabid, man hating, liberals want to emasculate all men.  The homosexual agenda goes hand in glove with the insanity of Bruce and his self mutilation.   After all, weak, confused, feminized, homosexual men are much easier to control and manipulate.    

 

The thing the globalist, New World Order far left liberals fear most are strong willed, intelligent, well educated, physically capable men.  That's because it is strong men who stood up to the British and created this great country.  It was red blooded American men who were unyielding in the face of overwhelming Japanese Naval strength during the eraly part of WWII. It was the same men who turned back the tide of Nazi Fascism    It was capable American men who fought their way into Baghdad in M1 Abraham tanks to defeat a murderous dictator.  

Bruce Jenner is just another symptom of the rot which is eating away at this nation.  Bruce Jenner is a self centered, egotistical, absent farther. Those are the very words of his own children.  Bruce goes on to say how because of his new wig and finger nails he has the bravery to flaunt the fact he wanted to have his oldest daughter aborted.  Wow, must have taken a lot of bravery to want to run away from his responsibilities as a man and as a father. 

 

 

Bruce Jenner can chop off his dick, shave his Adams apple, and have plastic surgery till he runs out of skin or cartilage, think Michael Jackson. However, this will not change the thing he is trying to run away from most.  No matter how many wigs he puts on, no matter how many tubs of make-up he slathers on his wrinkled face, he's still Bruce Jenner.  

The fact that he has gone this far with this insanity is simply a testament to the level of dislike he has for himself.  What Bruce needs is someone to sit him down and speak the truth to him.  Bruce needs GOD in his life and the sad part is...

Bruce has enough money and enough sycophants around him to make sure that will never EVER happen.   I will pray for Bruce and our country and I hope you will too.
