It's instructive that even when presented with the actual text of the law that renders your imagined scenario impossible, you persist. However, lets say, for the sake of discussion, that one day a chaplain could be presented with having to choose between his conscience and his career. Do you think it is reasonable to deny an entire class of people their basic civil rights, for no purpose other than to protect the chaplain? Suppose the chaplain belongs to a faith that believes women must be obedient to men in all things, Don I kind of lost interest at this point because you do not correctly grasp the meaning of the NT Scripture in Ephesians. That's OK, very few in this venue do. Homosexual, liberal revenge is going to be the zeitgeist for a season. Oh fear, I fear very little in life. I have the victory.

It is obvious that neither you or the others see the potential of a military career lost. I guess there is no further point in me talking about it. We all will have to wait for the results of the test cases, which I believe will be forthcoming. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.

No, I don't agree with any of that. The napkin was written by whom ever. the bible was written by Prophets, chosen and ordained by the Son of man, and God. I won't litigate with you further, because it's causing you to spiral even further down ward. Take Care, Be safe. Best- Richard Now that's class. Something I am often guilty of not having.

Christianity http://www.splcenter.org/blog/2011/11/30/kentucky-church-no-interracial-couples-welcome/ The Gulnare Free Will Baptist Church is a specific organization. That is not all of Christianity. Some Presbyterian and Methodist Churches accept homosexuality. That is not all of Christianity. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.

A couple of years ago, the Pentagon issued a directive that *allows* military chaplains to perform same-sex marriages if they choose to. They are not required to perform them, but they are permitted to. If he refuses to perform the marriage based on the rules of his denomination he is in violation of federal law. This hypothetical scenario is predicated on the assumption that two gay guys would attempt to force an issue on a particular denomination. What are the chances of two homosexuals doing that? I would guess a very high probability. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them.

I put Jihawg ammo in the same category as Zombie bullets. Also, consider Morhammered Liquors or Iraq o' Ribs Bar B Que. It's American humor. Yeah, AMERICAN. Celebrate the Fourth of July.

are military priests allowed to pick and choose who they administer to? This seems similar to the issue of pharmacists who refused to fill prescriptions for birth control as a matter of conscious. If no one is present that is willing to do it instead, that person must do his job. but the case of the military isn't a very compelling counterargument- soldiers give up many of their rights during their service. First, priest is a title for Roman Catholic, Episcopalian and I think Anglican churches. A military Chaplain represents his denomination and if that denomination recognizes homosexuality as a sin, to perform a marriage ceremony would cause him to lose his license. Loss of his license would invalidate him as a Chaplain. Thus he would lose his career choice. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.

Tagging on to you because, well, you're the boss. Question, what do you suppose would be the outcome for an Army Chaplain, Southern Baptist, who is asked to perform a marriage for two gay soldiers? Given the assumption that to do so would violate the canons of his faith and he is governed by federal law plus the UCMJ. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.

Nope, don't have a date; just wait and watch. You are smart enough to figure it out as it unfolds. I am smart enough not to put any stock into anyone's bullshit religious prophecy.

No, I understand quite well. I understand that granting same sex, legally married couples federal benefits has exactly zero impact on your church. No one is asking him or your church to do anything, whatsoever. That's pure fantasy, and nothing to do with DOMA being struck down. Did you church have tax exempt status before DOMA? Then it will still have it now. I don't know what "this" is, but if you mean your church's stand, then no one has any interest in crossing your line in the sand. Yes, you totally misunderstand.

Your pastor apparently has no idea what the law of the land is regarding gay marriage. It's a shame you follow such an ignorant man. I think you misunderstand. He knows exactly what is at stake. The church will pull his license and credentials if he disobeys their ruling. OTH, the Feds can pull the tax exempt status of the church. They call this drawing a line in the sand.

Now would that be the slavery, slaughter of native americans, witch hunts, or what? Well, I don't know. Let's start with the Mayflower Compact. ETA: Here's a website for you. http://www.allabouthistory.org/mayflower-compact.htm So what about the slavery, you think it was a bad idea to get rid of that too? Slavery, now called human traffiking, still exists. It always has and probably always will. In the case of America, it was started by a black man. Also perpetuated by blacks in Africa. Now where did you find that justified in the Mayflower Compact? Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant.

In the 17 and 18th Centuries it all started out as Christian. Your myths have been successfully forced on us. Fortunately, our happiness is not dependent on what you and your ilk do. We know how it ends. But, life is going to get very hard in the near future. The difference is that I don't call for laws that force my morality on you. You, OTOH, want to force your morality on everyone else. We just want America to continue with the morality of its beginning. The die has been cast. You and the others like you have won. Now you can be happy, happy, happy. We are pulling out into our little corners and settlements. You can have the rest of the world and all it has to offer. America is going to be divided up much like Europe with all its associated decadence and debauchery. New England, Chicago, parts of Colorado and most of California will become areas to avoid at all costs. It's your victory, enjoy your spoils. I am just going to watch the maggots feed.

Is not. Never was. You just personally find it gross. So did some post-Neolithic old men, who wrote it down. Great marketing campaign for the book, though; should be taught in business schools everywhere. Anyhow, that's the beginning, middle and end of the story. As an attorney you may be interested in this statement by my pastor and on behalf of our church and the church internationally concerning DOMA. "It is a shame that it has come to this but, we will not uphold the law of the land. No activities of any sort will be held by that group of people on any church property or in our church facilities." Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.
