“Liberal tolerance” – I think it an oxymoronic cliche by now. I fear it is only going to get worse. I stand by my statements in the previous post. But there is a growing minority in this country who have no experience of the Christian religion outside hateful caricatures in the media, and who have a more and more open antipathy themselves.
As I have said in the past, so-called gay marriage, as with gay-directed “hate crimes” legislation and other efforts, will be the vehicle of growing persecution. Where “gay marriage” has become legal, such as in Canada, it quickly becomes the focal point to silence Christians (but not other, more favored religions) and to drive Christianity from the public square.
TFP has engaged in many protests, but they’ve never gotten a response this hostile before.
Unsurprisingly, given the indoctrination they’ve received in the media, the current college age (so-called “millenial”) group is overwhelmingly in favor of gay marriage. Because they don’t know God, and thus don’t know anything beyond themselves or the pleasures of this world, such as they are. If this is all there is, it seems unfathomable to deny someone their desire/pleasure. But this is not all there is – it’s a fleeting figment, it’s not the reality people think it is, this is not our destination, it’s just a brief detour. I wish people could understand that – this world is not the reality we are pointed towards – God is.
And He has spoken.
I will also note this – the more lost in sin, especially sins of lust, our culture becomes, the more violent, barbaric, and childish it will become. Thus, the actions of many in the video.
More good work from TFP.
