‘Homophobic & Hurtful’: Gay Activists Protest Kirk Cameron’s Pro-Marriage Speech in NJ

Gay Activists Protest Kirk Camerons Speech About Marriage

Since March, actor Kirk Cameron has faced a slew of controversy surrounding his views on same-sex marriage. While the entertainer and documentary director didn’t initially seek to advertise his opinions on the matter, it was an interview with CNN’s Piers Morgan during which he was asked to share his views on the subject that set the stage for the continued protest against him.

On Friday, the drama continued, as Cameron spoke at a marriage event in Ocean Grove, New Jersey. After learning about his appearance, which did not at all focus upon same-sex issues, gay and lesbian activists showed up to protest outside of the venue.

According to The Christian Post, Cameron was speaking at the Great Auditorium when about 100 protesters showed up to march silently in front of the venue. The participants, part of a self-described civil rights group called Ocean Grove United, held signs that read, “Kirk! Your Words Hurt Us!” Another sign read,” Hey Kirk, Will God Judge Me For Loving Or Judge You For Hating?”

Here’s how the group described the event on its web site:

Thank you to all the people who made the Ocean Grove United weekend events so successful. On Friday evening we came together as a unified community outside the doors of the Great Auditorium to protest the homophobic and hurtful words of Kirk Cameron who was presenting a program inside. LGBT and straight, old and young, various religions, and an array of racial and ethnic backgrounds – what we share is a love of Ocean Grove and the diversity and acceptance that makes it such a special place.

Then we continued the celebration at a town-wide block party with music and dancing in the street. We saw old friends and made new ones. On Saturday, at a luncheon hosted by OGU, members of theGarden State Equality Youth Caucus shared their personal stories of being bullied with several Trustees of the Ocean Grove Camp Meeting Association. We heard how Kirk Cameron’s words and similar words from celebrities can reverberate and encourage others to become bullies. The teens were inspirational in their insights and in their courage to speak out.

While the crowd outside the venue was of noteworthy size and scope, the one inside dwarfed it, as 6,000 couples showed up to the event to hear Cameron speak about Christian marriage. Another group — Youth Caucus at Garden State Equality — had reached out to the actor to invite him to lunch to discuss why his views could lead, in their view, to anti-gay bullying. Cameron sent a letter to the group, citing a scheduling conflict.

A spokesperson for Cameron told The Christian Post that the event had nothing to do with gay marriage and that the actor “loves and prays for all groups of people.” Additionally, the representative reiterated that Cameron “does not discriminate” against any group.

The Friday speech was part of Ocean Grove’s Camp Meeting Association week, which provides citizens with resources and seminars that focus on strengthening marriage.

    Kirk is a strong Christian, Homosexuality is a sin against God. God’s Word declares it. No need to hate the messenger, who they really hate is God.

      “Hey Kirk, will God judge me for loving or judge you for hating?”

      He’ll judge you for being so evil you reuse to try to rid yourself of your evil mental disorder, because you’re too corrupt as a person to change.

      it appears you are confusing Kirks stance on an age old issue, in which u simply disagree, with
      the STING that you sense from a God given conscience, telling you Mr. Cameron is correct.

      First of all, love is not the criteria by which marriage is defined or justified. Marriage is defined by a public, legal commitment, and love is not a necessary component of the contract (though it is a good idea to love each other). Marriage is entered into by a mutual agreement that involves emotional and sexual faithfulness and the promise to raise children within its bonds. Of course, some heterosexual couples can’t have children, and some adults marry knowing they will not have children. The issue is that marriage has always been the normal means in which children have been brought into the world. The marriage institution is supposed to provide a stable environment.

      What about polygamy and polyandry? Would those who say homosexual marriage is okay, as long as two people love each other, also advocate one man having many wives and one woman having many husbands as long as they love each other? It would seem that in order to be consistent they would have to.

      Where does it stop? Just saying that love is what justifies homosexual marriage can also be used to justify other things. It is a dangerous argument, illogical, and is wrought with problems and pitfalls.

      It looks like Kirk has read the Bible – Romans 1 – Ch 1 verses 26-32. God in Ver. 32 – put Q_ueers right beside murderers. In ver. 26 he says that a man is only to be with a woman and a woman is to only be with a man.

      Everyone should have the right to express one’s opinion on any subject without being assumed to be a bigot, racist, whatever. Gay marriage is a slippery slope anyway–where does it go from there. The family on “Sister Wives” feels that they have a right to group marriage. Does it? Do those supporting gay marriage also support group marriage?

      The ‘controversy’ is a media-ted slugfest pitting opposing views, and it occurs to me the so-called ‘hate’ is misdirected as a defense against (accurately percieved) disapproval and/ or disagreement with the lifestyle as well as the forcing of it on the rest of us. IMO, it’s not hatred per se; rather the resentment against the ‘special rights’ demanded, the inculcating of youth toward that which is non-traditional, costly in terms of health care and research cures unwillingly subsidized by US citizen taxpayers. Another example of taxation without representation.

      If one chooses to do the dance, one should rightly pay the piper for the tune.

      Kirk Cameron is a fine American man. He’s decent, hard-working, good Dad and Husband and spends his life helping others to come to know Jesus Christ.
      The NEXT biggest mistake that Homosexuals make is criticizing people who don’t approve of their life style. DUDES: YOU can’t force someone to approve of your lifestyle if they believe it to be sinful. YOU can’t make your lifestyle acceptable because you rant and rave, boycott, try to ruin someone from having an honest opinion. YOU can’t make someone approve of your life style by forcing their YOUNG children to read about it in school in the 1st grade.
      Most of us don’t care about your life style, we look at you for your character and many of us pity you for your situation, but we don’t HATE YOU, or even DISLIKE YOU until, of course, you come after good people like Kirk Cameron for expressing his belief in Marriage being between a Man and a Woman. get over it. YOU are not going to change the minds of people who believe what you do is a sin. THEY are not trying to stop you, or put you in jail, or cut off your heads (like Islam does/has done and wants to do) …are they? SO stop trying to force YOUR lifestyle down our throats. Most of us are too busy trying to stop Obama’s World Dictator Wanna-Be efforts to worry about your life style. anyway. but YOU cannot force me to say I approve of your life style. I may really like YOU, but you can not force me to approve of your lifestyle. Get it?

      True, adultery is a sin. I agree that no one should pick on one sin. There’s something you must understand though.

      Adultery, at least for the most part isn’t looked at by society as “good” or “honorable.” Yes, a lot of it goes on but it’s still looked down upon.

      Homosexuality, while not only a hot topic, is viewed, or at least really starting to be accepted in today’s society as good, normal, ok. So, since it is viewed in this way by many people you will have those who speak out against it. Now, if there are stories where a group of people say there is nothing wrong with cheating and I’m sure it has been said before. then I will gladly say the same thing about Adultery as any other sin.

      Those weddings whose aim is “love” still end in divorce. If they divorce, where is the “love” that was supposed to “hold everything together”? If love is the reason people give to justify marriage then why are you divorcing??

      Loving someone is an action expressed THROUGH COMMITMENT! Love is not a “feeling”. That is the problem with counterfeit marriage and marriages in general. They’re all based on fleeting “feelings” rather than genuine commitment.

      Did you not hear what the minister said at the alter? That this VOW shouldn’t be entered into lightly? And what IS A VOW? it is a COMMITMENT before GOD and man that you will, whether in sickness and in health, richer or for poorer, till death remain faithfully committed to your spouse!

      The “in love” feeling that motivates MOST to marry today is illusory! So much so that researchers say that it is akin to being INSANE! Meaning those who are “in love” (usually these days it’s more like being “in lust”!) will do just about ANYTHING to please the other person even to the extent that it borders on the insane!

      But what happens when the euphoria of being “in love” passes; when the cameras stop snapping; the Minister and all the guests have gone home; and the thrill of the wedding day passes….what then?

      COMMITMENT is the enduring quality that sustains a marriage even when love is hard to come by.

      To all the biblical cherry pickers, the bible, particularly Leviticus, forbids many things including:

      - Tattoos
      -Having sex durring a woman’s period.
      -Eating animals without split hooves.
      -Fish without fins or without scales (sorry catfish lovers)
      -Sex until 33 days after birthing son or 66 days after birthing daughter.
      -Clothing with different kinds of material
      -Planting of fields with different kinds of seeds.
      -Trimming hair on sides of beard or sides of head.

      Take a look at yourself. Are you clean shaven? Have a tattoo? Wearing clothing of mixed fabrics or anything else listed above? If so then you are a sinner in the same way you think gays are. Take a look at your own sins before condemning others. After all, let he who is without sin cast the first stone, hipocrites.

We are now under a “new” covenant as Jesus said and the old has passed away. We have all been made clean (believers that is) by the blood of Jesus Christ so when we eat catfish or shave our hair or eat animals with split hooves we are not sinning my friend.

      “Take a look at yourself. Are you clean shaven? Have a tattoo? Wearing clothing of mixed fabrics or anything else listed above? If so then you are a sinner in the same way you think gays are.”

      The Old Testament’s laws apply to Jews, not Christians. With Christ and through his death a new covenant was made, and the harsh laws of the old covenant were made obsolete (as were the punishments: thus, no more stoning adulterers and whatnot). Hence, while Leviticus is no longer followed, homosexuality is still a sin as per several passages in the New Testament (such as Romans 1:26-27, 1 Corinthians 6:9-10, and 1 Timothy 1:9-10).

      On a side note, a lot of people will still cherry-pick what they like in the Old Testament. It’s certainly not a bad idea to personally follow most of the old laws (such as the Commandments, 9/10 of which are repeated in some form in the NT); it’s just not necessary for salvation through Christ.

      Romans Ch 1 V 19 onwards states what God thinks of homosexuality and lesbianism. God truly loves these men and women, as I do, but their SIN results in ETERNAL separation from HIM. They MUST repent of their sin, and then and ONLY then, can they have salvation. There is NO OTHER NAME UNDER HEAVEN[Jesus Christ], by which we can be saved. I pray for them to admit their sin, and seek refuge in the ONE TRUE GOD, who truly does love them, but His Holiness, and justice, will NEVER be compromised. We either do GODS’ will, or satans.

He is in a field where actors have the opposite view. It must be very hard for him not to be accepted because of his faith. You can see that faith in what makes him strong and unafraid.

      You’ve apparently not been to a Roman Catholic wedding, or if you were, you weren’t paying attention.

      Rite of Marriage

      All stand, including the bride and bridegroom, and the priest addresses them in these or similar words:

      My dear friends, you have come together in this church so that the Lord may seal and strengthen your love in the presence of the Church’s minister and this community. Christ abundantly blesses this love. He has already consecrated you in baptism and now he enriches and strengthens you by a special sacrament so that you may assume the duties of marriage in mutual and lasting fidelity. And so, in the presence of the Church, I ask you to state your intentions.

      The priest then questions them about their freedom of choice, faithfulness to each other, and the acceptance and upbringing of children.

      (Name) and (Name), have you come here freely and without reservation to give yourselves to each other in marriage?

      Will you love and honor each other as man and wife for the rest of your lives?

      The following question may be omitted if, for example, the couple is advanced in years.

      Will you accept children lovingly from God and bring them up according to the law of Christ and his Church? Each answers the questions separately.

      Don’t feel as though homosexuality is a crime against anyone. It is their own handicap. But would never give special rights to those afflicted. Changing the definition of the word “marriage” would not help their affliction. Nor should have changing the definition of the word “gay”. But it is too late for that. That said, I do understand their plight. It’s just not right to change our norms for their desires in my opinion.

      Obama was always for gay marriage-I heard he even might have experimented in college himself. He is not a true Christian, didn’t even like to go to church, until someone told him it was politically useful. The pro-traditional marriage laws specifically say there is NO ban on contracts between private parties, meaning NO ban on domestic partnerships, civil unions, etc. The purpose of these laws is to DEFINE what marriage is, not to ban anything! Gay conservatives agree that the definition of marriage is btw. a man and a woman. It’s the liberal gay activists who want to re-order society. Gays already have all the rights to do whatever they want. These laws are NOT telling gays who to love and who not to love! But the gay activists make it out to be “discrimination”, etc. The left uses words like “discrimination, racism, sexism” whenever someone doesn’t agree with them.

People aren’t willing to let others follow their religious beliefs and I wonder when it became OK for our press and our government to be bigots and to act punitivel in judgement of those who would dare stand by their beliefs? Those who follow their beliefs are not hate mongers, they don’t judge others yet they are intimidated and vilified at every turn.

      President Obama leads Mitt Romney among likely voters in Ohio and Florida – and has a double-digit lead in Pennsylvania – according to a Quinnipiac University/CBS News/New York Times poll released this morning.

      The poll, conducted from July 24-30, shows Mr. Obama leading his presumptive Republican challenger 53 percent to 42 percent in Pennsylvania. The 11-point lead results largely from independents, who favor the president by 22 points, and women, who favor the president by 24 points.

      Mr. Obama holds a six-point lead in Ohio, 50 percent to 44 percent, a state where he holds a campaign event later today. His lead here is also due in large part to women, who back him by a 21-point margin. Romney leads by ten points among Ohio men, and seven points among Ohio whites.

      In Florida, Mr. Obama also holds a six point lead, 51 percent to 45 percent. He holds a small lead among both men and women and a 19-point lead among Hispanics, while Romney leads by double-digits among whites and voters age 65 and above.

He/she was commenting on a sign (“Will God judge me for loving or you for hating”) & (I believe) basically said that God will judge the people who refuse to acknowledge their sin (homosexuality to be specific to this post) & ask forgiveness for it. The ones attacking him/her seem to believe that he/she was saying he/she agreed with the sign.

      Also @saranda, when Christian say that we believe in marriage being between one man & one woman we are not just speaking against homosexual marriage, but also about polygamy & adultery as well as non-marital sexual relations because they all are sexual sins. Just as murder, lying, stealing & blasphemy are sins & we speak against them also, but this article isn’t about adultery or polygamy, but about homosexuals trying to force someone to deny God & honor them instead.

      Different views are great. However Marriage is a Judeo Christian sacrament (I know it is hard to separate things sometimes since we all live in a Judeo-Christian nation). The problem here is that Homosexuals are asking to debase the institution of Marriage which is defined a consecrated union between a man and a woman. This is not about hate, it is about insisting that our society insert something that is anathema to the institution itself. Homosexuals can do whatever they like, but as a tiny minority they simply cannot be allowed to force the acceptance of their beliefs on the majority.

      If marriage is strictly a religious sacrament, then the government has no business endorsing it and granting it special status.

      Here, let’s solve this problem. Let’s revoke all marriage licenses and distribute everyone who wants one, a civil union. Religious people could then get married in their church, and a church wouldn‘t have to marry anyone they don’t want. That marriage is only recognized by them and their God and has no recognition outside of that church. Does that work for me?

      I bet a lot of religious people wouldn’t be okay with that. They talk about religious freedom, and keeping government out of religion, but here they have no problem with it. They want the Government endorsement that what they’re doing is correct.

      Also, I don’t think marriage was legally defined as a man and a woman, which is why so many states are voting on Constitutional amendments to make it such

      Marriage also isn’t just a Judeo Christian ritual. To say that would mean you are saying that nobody got married before the Old Testament was written. The Old Testament is based on ramblings from a guy who wasn’t there when the world was created.

Our forebearers understood the unnatural nature of homosexuality it didn’t need to be delineated. Only today..37 states have had to amend their constitutions by having to spell out the obvious..that marriage is solely a man and woman.

      Interesting question. I came across this quote in a book earlier today by a British Author.

      “The Human Rights Convention was originally conceived in another era altogether. Drafted in the wake of World War II, it was an attempt to lay down a set of principals to ensure that totalitarianism would never deface Europe again. It has now mutated into something very different. …

      The emergence of a culture of hyper-individualism gave rise to a radical egalitarianism of lifestyles and values. Morality was privatized and all constraints of religion, tradition or cultural taboo came to be seen ass an attack on personal autonomy. …

      The values of the dominant culture thus had to be replaced by the perspectives of the self-designated victim groups. … The only taboo now was the expression of normative majority values such as monogamy, heterosexuality, Christianity, or Britishness. Because these were rooted in the particular, there were by definition discriminatory.

      pp 24-25 Londonistan, by Melanie Phillips, copyright 2006

      She goes into much more detail in the book than I have characters to post. Well worth reading.

      So, in the eyes of the “gays”, who seem to me to be the most unhappiest people on earth, Kirk Cameron violates their code of “ethics” simply because he is: 1. a Christian; 2. heterosexual and 3. monogamous. According to them, three strikes, he’s out!

      “civil rights issue”?

      That’s like saying the freedom to marry my dog, aunt, sister, mother or grandma is a civil right’s issue. Being in “love” with someone does not create or grant you the right to marry that person. There are laws against marrying minors, mothers, siblings, married persons, beasts and your toaster oven. What liberals seek is not a natural right but a SPECIAL privelage. They forcefully seek public acceptance, for the Law to condone their UNNATURAL behavior, and to forcefully radicalize the definition of marriage. Marriage is a natural and ancient institution, established by the laws of Nature and nature’s God. Murder will always mean a certain thing, as will theft and lying. Relative morality is for those who have no courage to stand for the truth or who have no backbone to follow those laws binding on all men. They have no respect for Law.

      Laws passed by men CANNOT alter or change laws existent in NATURE already. No statute can invalidate what God has created. No ordinance can outlaw what God has instituted. No earthly Government can alter what God has purposed. To ignore the God of the bible is to ignore our heritage and organic laws. Our founding fathers ‘appealed to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of their intentions’. We would be foolish to disregard their actions, and continue in complete ignorance and denial of the truth.

      If they radicalize marriage, parental rights will be next!

    Here is a man who has dared to live his life with integrity as HE sees fit, according to a God (can I say that?) who has laid out parameters for the people He created. Now then, is my speech hateful because I speak with absolute certainty? There is not one shred of evidence that Kirk hates any gays-he, and I, simply state a differing of opinion.

      Saw a poll recently where something like 60-70% of believers would still believe in their dogmatic faith even when presented with a rock solid fact that went against it. Meaning, if the bible said 1+2=5 and even though they were shown that 1+2 actually = 3…60-70% would still take it on faith that 1+2=5.

Give me one “fact” that refutes the bible. Many people over the centuries have been trying to find fault with the word and I have yet to find a mistake. Today’s science, especially evolutionists want us to believe that 1+ a = x and that x represents their “desired/hoped for/faith without God” outcome, which is really not “fact” but theory. So give me JUST ONE FACT and where it refutes the bible. thanks

But is it so hard to believe that the one who created the world, and set it all in place can make one of His creatures do something outside of its “normal activity”, i.e. supernatural? It is a fact that snakes and donkeys cannot speak, BUT you cannot refute that they spoke unless you have proof that they did not (by God’s supernatural power). What you are presenting is your supposition based on your facts, you are not presenting evidence that it did not happen. And since you cannot explain it with your “pea brain” then it must not have happened! Again 1+ a = your non-belief in God

      @ DOORS….I am very interested when you say there are many contradictions within the bible. Please elaborate more for me. I would very much like to discuss this. All this other talk about intelligence and what not is really nonsensical rhetoric that is immaterial to whether or not the bible is accurate in its accounts and reflection of God or not. I am Christian and I am also a surgeon, am I unintelligent? If I am or if I am not it really has no bearing upon factual evidence or reality does it? So if you wouldn’t mind just supplying me with your absolute best contradiction you can muster I would very much like to see it. BTW the percentage you gave about people sticking with their faith regardless of evidence really is a biased question to begin with because the presupposition is that faith is unreasonable. It is an illogical question based upon a pressumptous conclusion. Better to ask the logical question, what evidence would it take to convince you God does not exist or the bible is false. Just like I would ask you as a nonbeliever what evidence it would take to convince you God does exist. Thank you ahead DOORS……

In fact the bible has demonstrated such accuracy in its accounts of ancient history and locations that many archeologists use it as a reference tool.

      Leftists fear opposition because they know their theories have been tried and have failed. They lie, misrepresent, misdirect, prevaricate because they know that “We the People” won’t support them. And, no, the issue really isn’t the “decadence”. These radicals are using the LGBT community to advance their own agenda: “heighten the contradictions” (Trotsky) and destroy family (Marx). Since family are those people who take you in when no one else will, strong families lessen dependence on the State, and Stateist authoritarians don’t like that.

      “God calls homosexuality an abomination.”

      Technically, He calls it toevah (or to’evah), which is closer to “taboo” or “ritualistically unclean for Jews.” For example, eating shellfish is toevah as well (although we discount this in the NT); and remarriage after divorce is toevah in Deuteronomy 24:4 (which Jesus reiterates, but most Christians seem to ignore).

      Leviticus 18:22 Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.

      Deuteronomy 24:4 Her former husband, which sent her away, may not take her again to be his wife, after that she is defiled; for that is abomination before the LORD: and thou shalt not cause the land to sin, which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance.

      In both passages “abomination” derives from the Hebrew word “tow`ebah” which definition is below:

      08441 // hbewt // tow`ebah // to-ay-baw’ // or
      // hbet // to`ebah // to-ay-baw’ //

      1) a disgusting thing, abomination, abominable
      1a) in ritual sense (of unclean food, idols, mixed marriages)
      1b) in ethical sense (of wickedness etc)

      Homosexuals and other anti-Christs have been lying to naive Christians claiming that the sins God hates are merely “not advised”. That is a lie from Satan. The Holy Spirit despises adultery, fornication, homosexuality, bestiality, and all sexual immorality.

      Your definition says it: it’s in a ritualistic sense. The “abomination” you are using is not what we would think of as an abomination in common terms today (which makes sense, as the definition you quoted, knowingly or not, is from a 1906 Hebrew translation guide).

      Nowhere did I claim it‘s not against God’s will; but it is not proper to translate it as “abomination” when that carries a sentiment different from that of the Hebrew word. The truth is, toevah doesn‘t have a straight translation into English because we don’t have a word that embodies its concept. I’ve heard some folks liken it to radioactive: something you want to stay far away from lest it dirty you.

      Here is where you and others falter. The word tow`ebah does indeed mean “abomination” and “something to stay away from”. Jehovah always warned that sin is like a plague that spreads. Our carnal flesh enjoys sin and is easily inspired to mimic and emulate sin. Through time, sinners who want to manipulate the scriptures to justify their sins, have deceived many that tow`ebah means “prefer to keep away from”. When in reality tow`ebah means “it is an abomination therefore keep away from”

      And again, no it is not. A six-legged baby could be called an abomination. Would you say that there is a ritual component to it? That it represented idolatry? Of course not. That is why abomination is a false definition: English does not hold a single word for the concept. Calling toevah “an abomination” ignores the full scope of it, just as calling it only ritualistically unclean ignores the ethical aspect of it.

      Honestly, it should be left as toevah and annotated to get the full scope, as there’s no proper word for it in English.

      “I’ve explained this again and again, tow`ebah means abomination in both a ritual AND ethical sense. Thus, there doesn’t have to be a ritual component. ”

      If, as you say, it “means abomination in both a ritual AND ethical sense”, it follows that it MUST have a ritual component to it. But looking at your correct, I see you edit yourself and say it can be either/or; however, that doesn’t change that abomination does not describe the concept of toevah, which again, almost always relates to rituals, concerns cleanliness, or warns away from idolatry. The heart of toevah is the concept of holding different standards than other cultures. This is shown in Genesis 46:34, when shepherds are called toevah to the Egyptians.

      Again, not making a judgment on the passage itself; just pointing out that “abomination” is not a comprehensive definition accounting for the cultural and ritual undertones for toevah. It’s the equivalent of saying German Schadenfreude means sadism. English simply doesn’t have a single word to encompass the idea of “pleasure derived from the misfortunes of others,” either. And other terms like taboo more closely describe the actual usage of the word toevah.

      Here is the flaw with your argument. Jehovah used the term tow`ebah. Jehovah NEVER said that he used this term in reference to rituals. Moses also never claimed to use this term in reverence to rituals. Neither Jehovah nor any of His servants ever stated that any law existed simply and solely to be different. This concept of associating tow`ebah.with ritual is a man-made concept. Jehovah never dictated this.

      Now, because the Jews were to be holy though the other nations remained un-holy, the Jews would indeed be different as a result. Nonetheless, the basis of the commandments were to abstain from what Jehovah hated and to cling to what Jehovah loved. Not simply for ritual. Not simply to be opposite. Think about it, the other nations breathed, should the Jews then abstain from breathing? No, because the basis of the commandments were to please Jehovah not to simply be different.

      In fact, the Jews (through extensive time) were supposed to be a beacon to all nations. Slowly converting all nations to the same law and holiness. Thus ALL nations would be as the Jews. Indicating that Jehovah never wanted the Jews to be different just for the sake of it, but because the other nations were virtually the exact opposite of holy.

      The sum of my long-winded explanation being, Jehovah called man-sleeping-with-man tow`ebah (something he hated and loathed) because HE hated it. Not just because other nations were doing it.

      “Jehovah NEVER said that he used this term in reference to rituals. Moses also never claimed to use this term in reverence to rituals.”

      I don’t see this as a flaw in my argument at all, but rather the basis that there is any argument in the first place. The main issue is that there is IS no clear definition of toevah; it’s never laid out that “this is what it means.” Instead, we are simply told of over one hundred examples of toevah, including those NOT done by the Hebrews (as before, the Egyptians). This shows that it is culturally based, no?

      “In fact, the Jews (through extensive time) were supposed to be a beacon to all nations. Slowly converting all nations to the same law and holiness. Thus ALL nations would be as the Jews.”

      As the old covenant has been changed with the death of Christ, I’d say this is not true. All nations will not come to know Christ; in fact, we have Revelation to look forward to!

      “Jehovah called man-sleeping-with-man tow`ebah (something he hated and loathed) because HE hated it. Not just because other nations were doing it.”

      1. Technically man-lying-with-man, not sleeping.
      2. Again we see a difference in toebah and other words (like zimmah, which is sin). That’s a whole other debate, but if God hates all toebah, and shepherds are toebah to Egyptians, does God hate shepherds? Toebah is a specifically culture-based prohibition, not a blanket term for sin (which is applicable to everyone).

      1) ” it’s never laid out that “this is what it means.” Instead, we are simply told of over one hundred examples of toevah, including those NOT done by the Hebrews (as before, the Egyptians). This shows that it is culturally based, no?”

      Incorrect, we are told we don‘t know by sinners who don’t like the implications. It‘s Satan’s oldest trick. Tell everyone “they cannot be certain because the Bible is old.”

      2) “As the old covenant has been changed with the death of Christ, I’d say this is not true. All nations will not come to know Christ; in fact, we have Revelation to look forward to!”

      Though I too look forward to the 2nd coming of Christ, my 1st statement said the Jews were “supposed” to. They failed. We all failed. Thus Christ had to be Holy for us. God never intends for us to fail, He is only prepared for when we do.

      3) Again we see a difference in toebah and other words (like zimmah, which is sin). That’s a whole other debate, but if God hates all toebah, and shepherds are toebah to Egyptians, does God hate shepherds? Toebah is a specifically culture-based prohibition, not a blanket term for sin (which is applicable to everyone).

      What the Egyptians considered toebah is irrelevant. The Egyptians are not Jehovah. Though the term toebah in and of itself does not indicate sin, it CERTAINLY does when it proceeds from Jehovah’s mouth. When Jehovah says something is an “abomination” or “taboo” it is indeed seen. No abomi

      Matthew 7 verse :1 “Do not judge lest ye be judged. “For in the way you judge, you will be judged; and by your standard of measure, it will be measured to you.” Suggest reading the entire sermon on the mountain as all are Jesus words out of the New Testament as compared to the Old Testament which is mostly historical and prophecies of the coming King. Just my opinion of course for I am glad to see Kirk Cameron is a Christian but the argument now is about gay marriage. For myself, I will not judge my brothers or sisters souls and I do not believe it is Cameron’s intent. All concerned have the first amendment free speech. I refuse to hate with mine.

      Well I guess since I sleep with my wife, I won’t be judge for being gay.

      And you make a great point as to why and what the whole cry for the GLT community is all about.

      THEY WANT TO RE-WRITE THE BIBLE. THEY WANT TO TWIST IT SO THEY FIT IN TO THE NORM.

      Look when they can procreate then I will be all in.

      And let me ask this, when does it all end.

      You have transgender men that want to be women so they can be lesbians and vice versa with some ladies wanting to be men to love women?

      Where does it end?

      Then we’ll have NAMBLA wanting to marry little boys?

      So Granny answer me these questions that go against the teaching of God and the bible and I will sign on.

      DrunkGop-Hack OK, but first let me say 2 things. 1. I don‘t have time to stay the course on the Blaze all day and probably won’t respond again. 2. What I quoted is from Jesus own words and those sent to us by God who gave all of us a second chance. All of us. Why? I don‘t know because it sure seems like we don’t deserve it. You asked because you sleep with your wife are you gay? Is that right? How would I know. I’m not in your bedroom, ok? Which is just my point that I am not your judge nor should the government be there in my opinion. My view on gay marriage is absolutely not. It may happen, it may not. Gays hurt their own cause, however we live in AMERICA land of the Constitution. They have a voice. I ask you this question, ok? Did Jesus come for our souls or our cold dead bodies which turn into dust? Which? Another question: Do all of us have souls or just a few perfect creatures? Do all of us sin and where does sin originate? Our minds or our bodies?

      Romans 1:24-27 says “Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves, because they exchanged the TRUTH about God for a LIE and worshiped and serverd the creature rather than the CREATOR, who is blessed forever. Amen. For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. Their women exchanged natural relations for un-natural, and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in their own persons the due penalty for their error”. Verse 32 “Though they know God’s decree that those who do such things deserve to die, they not only do them but approved those who practice them. 2:15 “They show that what the law requires is written on their hearts, while their conscience also bears witness and their conflicting thoughts accuse or perhaps excuse them on that day when, according to my gospel, God judges the secrets of men by Christ Jesus”. God has written on their hearts and in their conscience what is right and wrong so they have no excuse for what they know is wrong but have to go around justifing their actions and crying that they are being “judged” by others. No one is judging them, they have alreday judged themselves by their actions. When we see our pets of the same sex doing these things we know it is wrong and put a stop to it so why are they no smarter than a dog?

    Hurtful? WTF are you talking about? How about when “the gay agenda” was forced down the throats of our third graders behind our backs? I politely questioned as to why and the fireatorm started. I was threatened by the gay community, sent hate mail, send hate email and threats. Shunned by the school system, bank account compromised, yelled at, demonized, slandered and threatened! Ya’ know what? It made me fight harder for what I believed in.. and God saw us through it all.

    One question I want to ask. Why do you despise the only group of people that would help you? Why do you support this President especially since he supports Hamas and groups that KILL gays. Keep biting the hand that “feeds” you. You‘ll end up persecuted by the very groups that you support and you’ll come running to the Christians begging for help.

Funny how all these minority groups including atheist are so loud during this administration. I guess they feel empowered to shove change down your thoat. I think it will not only be politically incorrect, but soon consider part of the hate laws not to agree with GLBT marriage. I can see them hauling off 90 year old Truest Cathy and his son Dan along with anyone else that voices their beliefs. Just give Obama one more term that’s all he needs to finish his job, but by then he will get term limits removed too.

    I wonder if these people realize that they are not protesting Kirk Cameron, but actually protesting against the word of God?

    If the bible says it’s a sin to eat an apple and you call an apple-eating wrong, you are not “hating”.

    It’s time to call the homosexual movement what it really is and that is a thinly-veiled anti-Christian movement. The harder they press, the more this becomes clear.

    Look at Dan Savage’s remarks about the bible and the way he treated those Christian kids. Look at the Chick-Fil-A umbroglio and now this.

    I think the picture of the protesters standing in front of a church holding signs is probably the most truthful image in regard to the heart of this issue.
