Minnesota Family Council registers ‘marriage protection fund’

Wow, a “a nine-month training course”. How difficult can it be?

That length of time sounds sufficient for an indoctrination program. We’ll tell you how to think about things.

The sheep will follow the shepherd. That’s the message.

Vote as the shepherd says and you will be rewarded in the afterlife. The shepherd promises it is so.

Yikes!

I understand the churlishness, Jeff, but I think it is unwarranted just the same.

If telling people your point of view is telling people how to think about things, then no one can say what is on their mind at all. And that would be a poor shame.

Is there something in particular that you disagree with? Perhaps you could tell people how to think (or rather share your opinion) on this also rather than complaining that people are talking and listening.

So O.L. is feeling a bit of discomfiture that Jeff, like a lot of people, are indeed listening AND TALKING … So who is complaining now, O.L.? YOU. Sheesh.

Hello Lane,

I’m curious how you can interpret my comment that way.

I called such squemishness “unwarranted” and invited the author to “tell people how to think (or rather share your opinion) on this also”.

So how does pointing out how unwarranted the accusation is in the first place, and inviting him to share his opinion, “feeling a bit of discomfiture”?

Since I’m worried that your attention span is getting in the way of understanding what you are replying to, I want you to know I am specifically accusing of you of jumping to conclusions :)

So here we are, it’s 2011 A.D. and we have the understanding and proven evidence of evolution through examination with science. We understand and can look at various germs and virus and how they behave/travel and are constructed. We have amazing medical sciences and advancements with being able to understand and unlock DNA. We as a species have the wonderful understandings of human psychology and neuroscience. Our mathematics abilities are beyond anything anyone could have imagined but have allowed us to create magnificent skyscrapers, super-sonic airplanes breaking the speed barrier, transporting thousands upon thousands of our humans around the world in an unimaginably fast rate. We understand atomic energy and weaponry along with new understandings of quantum physics and the building blocks of matter.We have satellites and telecommunication possibilities that were only fifty years ago thought of in science fiction movies. The list goes on with all the profound advancements and conveniences we as a human species now have at our understandings and disposal.

So here we are at 2011 A.D. and we still, in this time have people praying to a dead corpse nailed to two boards….. The cross – a symbol of horrific, inhumane torture that not even our own current day government would allow. Can you imagine Jesus being killed by the Guillotine and Christians praying to and using that symbol?

Here we have a religious group that eats the body and drinks their leader’s blood in some sick cannibalistic/vampire ritual that anyone out of that religion would view as almost satanic. But that group thinks they are moral and have the right answers for everyone and correct value system for everyone in this state and America.

Here we have a group of people who cherry pick from a non-credible, grossly exaggerated resource (Bible) that has been translated and revised twenty times or more with not just slight alterations, but now, through the better understandings of history, archeology, Hebrew language and linguistic study, has proven the current day Bible to have greatly skewed misinterpretations from the original Hebrew version. (The Hebrew version never uses the word ‘Homosexuality’… do your own research)

So now we have a religious group out of several very different and distinct religions of the world, are pushing their religious laws into government laws when it’s clearly stated that there is a separation of church and state.

So here we are, 2011 and the Christian Crusades, that are responsible for the horrific abuse, bloodshed, torture, pedophilia-rape, adult-rape, suppression, oppression, psychological exploitation (brainwashing) and death of millions of people throughout history, and are still trying to push restrictive laws into the modern day government laws to suppress the loving civil rights of a peaceful group of people, a peaceful loving group of gay people who have and still make major contributions to the betterment of our society.

So here we are, with a religious group that is so insidious, sick, twisted and delusional with megalomania-self-righteousness that they have to target out another peaceful group (GLBT community) and try to put them down and make themselves feel superior.

CHRISTIAN FUNDAMENTALISTS = FRAUD AND DELUSION AND ARE A CANCER TO OUR SOCIETY

O.L., I merely observed, and called it as I sees it. I stand by my own conclusion that you accuse me of. *yawn*

Lane,

As much of an admission that you are judging it from nothing more then your own self. A fertile ground for projection, that is.

FWIW, I appreciate that it was sincere and you are sticking to it even if it is completely unrooted in reality.

Mr M.

Christianity, as I understand it, preaches people to understand each other. It preaches people walk a mile with those oppressing them and to turn the other cheek.

You may have some interesting science to teach them, but to be honest you seem to need a lesson from them too.

O.L. ……… the anti-christ had arrived. The humans will need to choose. DELUSION or REALITY. 11:11 is here and now. DO YOUR RESEARCH AND CHOOSE. The truth will set humans free.

The way I sees it, O.L., Christianists need to learn to stop oppressing others, to start taking responsibility for their actions when confronted with evidence of harm to others. Frankly, I am now quite bored with your sanctimonious nonsense.

There is nothing to fear. We all go back to the source. (eventually) Peace Love and Light to all of free will.

11:11 … as I said/wrote/typed… do your research. (cosmic wink)

Lane, I hope they do too.

Mr. M, I’ll look into it. Thanks for the warning.

O.L.

The preaching might be to turn the other cheek, but the action of indoctrination, and force of personal interest religious views being forced into law, is criminal in action.
