In case you missed it over the weekend we hit the one year anniversary of the infamous Obergefell ruling by the Supreme Court. For a whole year now America has been able to gay marry from sea to shining sea.
Incredibly this has not led to disaster and/or tyranny.
For example Mike Huckabee stated that “Not just in our lifetime, but ever before in the history of this great nation. We are moving rapidly towards the criminalization of Christianity.”
Seem nuts? Well as Matt Barber put it allowing gay marriage would almost inevitably lead to a war since, in his words, "Same-sex marriage and the free exercise of religion, particularly biblical Christianity, cannot coexist in harmony."
How would this fight happen? Well Rick Scarborough, a Texas pastor, had this to say about gay marriage: “Are we going to sit back and let the country be destroyed? Or as believers, are we going to stand up and be counted? As for me and my house, we’re going to serve the Lord for this, we’re going to go to jail if necessary, we are not going to take this just sitting back and watching it.”
And why not fight since, as Tony Perkins noted, this is all part of a plan to genocide Christians: “I’m beginning to think, are re-education camps next? When are they going to start rolling out the boxcars to start hauling off Christians?”
Of course some wouldn't fight. They'd want to leave. After all why live in a nation where gay people in love can marry? That's like practically a Mad Max wasteland or something. And Joseph Farah predicted that Christians and Jews would mass emigrate if such a terrible thing happened. "What I do see is a lot of grass-roots concern. I know there are millions of Christians, Jews and others who would pull up stakes and move to another country that honored the institution of marriage as it was designed by God – a union between one man and one woman."
Strangely Christianity has not been outlawed. There are no death camps. No pastor has gone to jail. No war has erupted nor has there been a mass exodus of Christians. It's almost like it was about allowing gays to marry and not Christianity. Crazy.
But what about other effects? Like how is it that raping children is still a crime when we were warned by Pat Robertson that it would be legal too? “The time is going to come in America, the Supreme Court said homosexuality is a constitutional right, now they’ve said homosexual marriage is a right, then they’re going to say polygamy is a constitutional right, then they’re going to say polyamory is a constitutional right, then they’re going to say pedophila is a constitutional right".
And Tom Delay said that this was part of a plot to not only legalize child rape but to also allow bestiality. "They're now going to go after 12 new perversions, things like bestiality, polygamy, having sex with little boys and making that legal."
Incredibly gay rights activists never moved on to these other things. It's almost like consensual relationships between adults and raping kids and animals are different somehow.
So, folks, here we are. A year later and the world has not come to an end. Funny, huh?
