Gay barbarians descend on Marcus and Michele Bachmann's clinic

A horde of glitter-wielding gay "barbarians" on Thursday paid a visit to a clinic owned by GOP presidential candidate Michele Bachmann and her husband, Marcus.

The colorfully dressed group had scheduled an appointment at Bachmann & Associates and were demanding to be disciplined.

The barbarians appeared to be taking Marcus up on his belief that gays and lesbians are in need of "discipline"to remedy their "sinful nature," a philosophy he espoused over a year ago on a Christian radio show.

    I do hope that our law enforcement of harassing citizens and businesses is paid attention here. I would have sprayed the 'glitterers' with 3M 77 adhesive and then thrown the glitter on the protestors. That would allow the glitter to stick for a long time, and save them lots of money in glitter… Have you noticed how militant the gay lobby always is? They never show up and have a debate; it's always a shout fest or a pie in the face or throwing items…just like a bunch of 3yr olds. That is the essence of the foundation of their debate: "I want it my way so there…" What a bunch of whiners. Discipline is EXACTLY what they need and have never received.

    • viper

      You are right. If we did this to a gay owned clinic it would be called gay bashing! Then they would add more time to a jail sentence. They are a satanicly protected class of people. Protection courtesy of the liberal progressive left

      AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!1

      They should have been arrested! It's time to act! Now!

    • Lance

      If they wore brown shirts, would it be any different?

      actually it also sounds just like Barry

  • Rebecca

    These radical leftists are ruthless and without decency!! Protesting is their full-time paid job, created to fuel their rebellion! Patriotic Americans with family values are busy working full-time jobs to support their families, while these morons are being used as tools of George Soros and his minions to create open society where there is no God and, therefore, no moral guidelines for society.

    God Bless and Protect Michelle, husband Marcus, and family!!

    • Cindy

      I agree with you completely, Rebecca! As God-fearing, family-loving Americans we need to contact our so-called representives in Washington and on a State level and insist on a marriage amendment. I tried, a few years ago, to get my Senator to propose a marriage amendment and she told me that Doma was in place and that was all we needed! Well, we know that is not true.
      Then, we can no longer afford to sit back and let someone else do the work. We have to be politically aware and hold the feet of our town governments, our State legislators and those in Washington, who are working for us, to the fire. If we don't do this we are going to lose our freedoms and our country. People, such as this group, are more than likely living off the taxpayer, while we work, so they have the time for this foolishness! We have to be more aggressive, than they are, in protecting our moral foundation.

  • skipfoss

    I would have given the queers some disipline 357 treatment and arrest for trespassing . These desease barring freaks need to be removed from society ,they need to be put on an island like they use to do lepers in the old days. They are them selves a desease ,a sickning degenerate blight on the world and should have been treated as such

    • Taquoshi

      I think that's what they hope will happen because then they are the "innocent" victims, just tossing glitter around and the shooter is the bad guy.

      Other than that, I can't see what they hope to gain from these types of stunts. It certainly didn't change my opinion of them at all. How about yorus?

      • Linda F.

        It certainly has done nothing to improve MY opinion of them. There's a reason why I believe that a majority of liberals can't be bothered to put into practice the love and tolerance they're constantly lecturing others about. An overwhelming majority of the liberals that I've run into are hypocrites. They TALK about love and tolerance, but the never practice it.

    • daves

      Very Christian of you.

      • Bev

        I don't recall skipfoss saying he was a Christian…

        • Linda F.

          Nothing skipfoss says surprises me. I am surprised and disappointed by the fact that his comment has received so many thumbs up.

  • LouiseCA

    The only controversy I see is the face that the L. A. Times is actually considered a legitimate news source.

    • tinytim

      Why don't they say the reason why they become what they are proud of
      to me it is probably lack of love in the home. LouiseCA & you are probably
      right all the L. A. Times just want to find disgraceful news source that sells?

  • LouiseCA

    fact, not face, sorry

    • Chris

      wouldn't farce be more appropriate?

        Lol….Definitely!!!

    It is obvious that their lifestyle is about pride. Pride is the root of all sin. They adamantly announce that they are proud of their lifestyle and by default they are proud of their sin. The same applies for all of the moral decay we see going on in our nation. It all boils down to pride. We need to remember that pride comes before the fall. I am speaking of our nation. When I hear people say they are proud to be an American it makes me wonder what they have to be proud of. Are they proud that we have killed over 50 million babies in the womb? Are the proud of the debauchery that is going on in this country? I see no hope for the United States unless there is a sincere repentance on the part of those who claim Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior and then He touches our nation with His mighty hand.

    • JDB

      Pride goes before a fall. We should also pray for their salvation.

    • Jim

      Well put, Bro. Geiger!

    • CJM

      Not all pride is negative nor sinful. What you are speaking of is false pride, which promotes sinful behavior. Having pride in one's accomplishments, workmanship, and self-respect has nothing to do with what these barbarians are about. Far as I am concerned, Mr Geiger, after reading your post, you appear to be not only pessimistic, but a doomsdayer sort of person. If you really don't like what you are claiming exists in the US, just exactly what ARE you doing to remedy the situation–other than public whining over what is perceived as being wrong with this great nation of ours? That's the trouble in America–too much complaining or whining and not enough positive action.

      • Linda F.

        I'd like to ask you the same question, CJM: what are you doing to remedy the situation in the U.S.?

    • http://rationalresponses.blogspot.com/ Jeff Dixon

      If one does not believe there is anything wrong with their behavior, of course they will defend it.

  • jmm

    This is what we're dealing with folks. Some of them can get a whole lot meaner than just throwing glitter around. I learned that first hand when I was a teen. Many of them have no repect for anyone and don't care who you are, when they want what they want. Right then and there someone should have called the police when the glitter was coming out. I don't hate them, but I don't like their lifstyle, nor them trying to change me because I don't go along with them. And believe me there is a time coming that God may do a lot more than just talk to them if they don't change…or at least try to.

    • CJM

      There are also many who are not homosexual that become quite mean, lack respect for self and others, don't care who or what you are, and make unreasonable demands–even to the point of killing, maiming, or harrassing others. We call this the criminal element of society, some of whom receive a free pass from the authorities (as in the black panther groups and seiu memberships) for their criminal acts. They lobby hard in our legislative branches in order to distort the laws or have laws aimed at their illicit behavior repealed. The point is, while railing against the harrassers in the article, make sure that you include other like-minded felons who are not of that particular group. In other words, jmm, no single group has a premium on criminal activity.

  • hrwg

    What is interesting is no one is discussing the evidence that states that a high percentage of homosexual men are victims of pedofelia. Most little boys, who have been raped, state that the man made them gay in interviews after the incidence. It is an interesting topic. The rest of the percentage of homosexual gay men claim growing up in a single parent household with their mother. In this instance, the interviewees claimed that they highly identified with their mother never having male role models in their life. Not to add fire to the flame burning here, but it is interesting research and intelligent adults should be able to discuss this. If this is the case, then homosexuals are victims that need help dealing with being raped and encouraging them to remain in this lifestyle is an unhealthy way for them to deal with their victimization. Remaining in the lifestyle would be a constant reminder of their victimization. In the case of the single parent female household, it seems from the research that there is role confusion and boys naturally model the behavior of the head of the house based on little boys mental wiring. There is no website for this research because this is academic research and not hearsay, but I would encourage all to become familiar with this because we are seriously in danger of harming this group of people by not understanding the truth of what is going on. True there have been gays from the beginning of time, but no one asks the question why. They just perpetuate the lie that they are born that way. The research for this statement has overwhelming disproved this position so there must be another reason and we all should find out for the well being of these folks. It is as if we are all watching from the street a house burn with a little child in it, but no one bothers to save the child for fear it is the child's right to burn.

      hrwg wrote: "What is interesting is no one is discussing the evidence that states that a high percentage of homosexual men are victims of pedofelia(sic)."

      That's because there is no evidence to back this ridiculous claim up… repeating lies does not make them true.

    • A. Reginald

      Interesting topic. I know of a gay mand in Edmonton, AB, now long dead of aids. He was a professional and very gracious. He could charm toe socks off a woman, yet never touched one! He claimed he was gay because he either found, or found out about, his mother having an affair with her Catholic Parish Priest. After he found that out he never trusted women.

      • A. Reginald

        Please forgive. Noted a few typos, such as toe socks for the socks and mand for man.

    • CJM

      You are correct, hrwg. And consider the paradox in the middle east where young boys are taken from their families and forced to dance and perform illicit sexual activities with the men in their community. When these youngsters grow up and pushed back into the mainstream, they continue to do what they were taught–and are stoned to death for their "perversion" under shar'ia law. It's okay to take a healthy, normal child and turn him into a homosexual young adult–and then stone him to death because he is somehow a social deviant. No one agrees that the persons in the article should be condoned for their behavior and the perpetrators deserve condemnation for their acts–but one must also recognize other facts: (1) some of these individuals were forced into this lifestyle; (2) any criminal act is not confined to one particular group of persons.

      • Zeke199

        The people described in this article made their own free choice whether or not anyone did anything to them in their past. To follow that course is to first deny God's truth as stated in the Bible (all are sinners, everyone is responsible for their own sins), and second to shift responsibility to people who were not involved in the actions at the clinic. It is this demonically-inspired mindset that exhonerates criminals, further victimizes true victims, and leads to more sin & hostility.

        If what you say about this mideast is true, then those people face a certain judgment by God which is described as most unpleasant for all of eternity. God's grace is held available for each of them to their very last seconds, but a conscience seered from sin becomes unable to choose salvation through Jesus. We all must pray that all dark corners of this earth hear the Gospel & that many will come to salvation to escape the certain & coming judgment.

  • Paul

    How's this for discipline – for all of us:

    “As for the person who hears my words but does not keep them, I do not judge him. For I did not come to judge the world, but to save it. 48There is a judge for the one who rejects me and does not accept my words; that very word which I spoke will condemn him at the last day. 49For I did not speak of my own accord, but the Father who sent me commanded me what to say and how to say it. 50I know that his command leads to eternal life. So whatever I say is just what the Father has told me to say.” (Jesus' words recorded for us in John 12:47-50)

    Discipline me, Oh God, that I may not fall under your just judgement..

    • JDB

      Amen. Oh Lord, lead us in paths of righteousness for Your namesake, and for OUR OWN good.

  • Chris

    Favorite commandment forgotten by Christians today – "Love thy neighbor as thyself" – except if they were created gay by our God, who is in charge of everything, and then we'll be nasty and ostracize and criticize.

    You people are so hypocritical it's not funny. The should not be treated like lepers and your Jesus guy told you not to mistreat lepers.

    Your religion is doomed when you cannot treat your fellow citizens with respect and caring.

    • Carie

      Sure Chris-you throw commandments around when it benefits your agenda. You are the hypocrite, as they + the Left don't treat others with respect but expect others be kind to them. It's your culture of base moral standards that is doomed-the U.S. looks more like Coligula's Rome everyday! And we all know what happened there.

    • edcrandall

      REAL Christians do not hate homosexuals, but Do hate the sin of homosexuality. They were not made this way by God. It was a choice they made along lifes road. They can receive forgiveness, just as any other sinner, by confessing thei sin to God and asking Him to forgive them and accept Jesus as their personal savior. "God is not willing that any should perrish." God doesn't condemn anyone, we condemn ourselves by rejecting His Word.

    • Orienteer

      Chris, since you like quoting Bible verses, how do you respond to these:

      "You are not to sleep with a man as with a woman; ot is detestable." Leviticus 18:22

      "Do not be deceived: no sexually immoral people, idolaters, adulterers, male prostitutes, homosexuals, thieves, greedy people, drunkards, revilers, or swindlers will inherit God's kingdom." 1 Corinthians: 9-10

      "This is why God gave them over to degrading passions. For even their females exchanged natural sexual intercourse for what is unnatural. The males in the same way also left natural sexual intercourse….Males committed shameless acts with males and received in their own persons the appropriate penalty for their perversion." Romans 1:26-27

      If you are going to quote the Bible, you need to look at the ENTIRE Bible and not "cherry pick" your verses.

      • http://rationalresponses.blogspot.com/ Jeff Dixon

        The contradicts itself so much, you can find a passage to support almost any point of view.

        • edcrandall

          Yes it can be used to prove many things when taken out of context. If you read it with an open mind and heart and leave it in context, it will be life changing. I challenge anyone to try it.

          • orienteer

            I don't see how the verses on Romans, Leviticus, and 1 Corinthians can be taken "out of context." They are quite clear and unambiguous

          • edcrandall

            I did not mean that you had taken these verses out of context , only that atheist and liberals and non-christians take the Bible out of context and try to prove it contradictory.

        • Pastor Dwayne

          Sorry despite your beliefs Jeff ,, there is no contradictions, ALL is truth ,,, but to continue to be an atheist, you MUST think the Word of God is whaco,,, I've only taken a few prophecies you think is wrong, and proven you wrong ,, and you then never mention it again,,once again according to the Bible you are delusioned and a walking fable…

            It is not a believe to be able to read and comprehend. It takes some mental gymnastics to read the bible and then claim there are no contradictions. it gets it wrong on the first page. Plants cannot survive before the sun is created.

          • Pastor Dwayne

            Jeff,,,,, however ,, before the plants were created God the Lord said let there be light, , God is light ,,,, so the plants survived before the sun was created,,,, by the way ,,, in Gen 1 : 2 is not a picture of creation ,, it is Judgement,,,, Vs one happened millions of years before Vs 2,,, Look at Jer. 4 : 23-26 I beheld the earth, and , lo it was without form, and void; and the heavens , and they had no light. Vs 24 I beheld the mountains, and, lo, they trembled , and all the hills they moved lightly. Vs 25 I beheld , and lo, there was no man, and all the birds of the heavens were fled. Vs 26 I beheld, and, lo, the fruitful place (( before vs 2)) was a wilderness (( during Vs 2 )) , and all the cities thereof (( before Vs 2 )),,were broken down at the presence of the Lord, and by His fierce anger. (( during Vs2 )),,,, In Vs 28 it says the heavens above be black ,,(( black almost always speaks of judgement ,,,, I know you will have a lot of thoughts on this one,,, and that is OK it is good for a man to seek the truth

            Jeff ,,,,How did the plants ,,and, man, that lived a few million years before, and up to the judgement, of Gen 1 : 2 survive in the outer apace cold?

          • jatheist

            Pastor Dwayne asked: "How did the plants ,,and, man, that lived a few million years before, and up to the judgement, of Gen 1 : 2 survive in the outer apace cold?"

            Plants and humans didn't exist ~before~ the stars shone and heat radiated… you're messing up the order of things, likely because the bible does too. Stars ~before~ life, long before life. The elements required to create life weren't created until the stars since these heavier elements were created ~in~ the stars by the stars' nuclear reactions.

          • Pastor Dwayne

            Jatheist,,,,, Gen 1 : 1 ""In the beginning God created the heaven and earth"",,,The word heaven in Strong's concordance,,, in the Hebrew and Chaldee dictionary,,, word # 8064 can be translated into 3 different words,,""AIR"" (((that is a heaven beginning at the face of the earth upward where the clouds float,, till there is no air))),,,,,It can be translated HEAVEN, or plural,, HEAVEN (S),, meaning,,,the higher ether, where the celestial bodies revolve,,,The 3rd word, I even found interesting,,,,ASTROLOGER,,, we all know what astrologers do don"t we ,, study the starry realm of heaven,, so millions of years ago heaven,, including the sun, moon, stars we spoke into existence ,,including the earth,,, I know what the next statement,,question, is but I will wait to see what is said by all!!!!!!!!!

            PD wrote: "Jeff saying The bible said plants was before the sun was created ,,,, which he is right ."

            So Jeff is correct in saying that the bible claims the plants came before the sun.

            But then you write: "But I just showed the sun was first"

            Are you not aware that this contradicts the sentence you typed directly before this one?? How can Jeff be right AND you be right here? The contradiction is plain for all to see…

          • Pastor Dwayne

            Jatheist,,,,,Jeff was right as far as the plants were before The,, sun, moon, which was in the restoration of the system ,after the judgement of Vs 2,,,,,,, I was right, in the fact , the sun,moon, stars, the key word here is "created" in Vs 1, in other words, "spoke into existence" millions of years prior 2 the judgement of Vs 2 So we were both right , just different time frames,,,,,I have an answer for day # four,,,The sun ,moon etc,,,,, as I have said before, darkness speaks of judgement,,,, when Jesus hung on the cross, the day turned dark, in other words God made the clouds so thick it was utter darkness,,, judgement on sin was done ,, Purely my thoughts on the judgement of Gen.1 : 2 ,,, the clouds were so thick 1,000s of feet thick, that it was darkness over the earth,,, in Vs 3,4,5, when God said let there be light,, then He divided the light and darkness and, called it day and night ,, to ME , God did this by thinning the clouds enough to see the light,which , with the rotation of the earth God divided the light and darkness which was day # 1 ,, warmth was on the earth for God to go ahead and do days 2,3, ,,, Day #4 notice, he didn't create the sun and moon, he just said, let there be lights in the heavens , which He called the sun ,and moon , God did this by taking away the rest of the clouds ,,, and now we see the same sun,moon,stars, that were "created " millions of years ago,,,,, again purely my thoughts ,, it will be hard for Jeff to believe this ,,,,,,,,the Bible says don't argue about unlearned things , it will bring confusion ,,, I know whether it happened one way or the other ,,, it won't effect my salvation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

            So there were astrologers before Adam and Eve? Must have been a surprise for everyone.

            However, the bible specifically states on day four the sun and moon were created, which is after the plants.

          • Pastor Dwayne

            Jeff ,,,, if you read my other post ,,,,You would have known , millions of years prior to adam and eve the sun and moon, and the stars were spoke into existence ,, you would know there was man and woman before Adam and Eve, Day four was after the judgement ,of Vs 2 and in the restoration process ,,,,Vs3,4,5, let there be light,, God divided the light , Vs 5 he called the light day, darkness called night ,, Strong's concordance word # 3117 for Day means to be hot,, warm, as in the day time,,,,,,,,,,,,,,it was a post directed to Jatheist , who also said the sun ,moon,stars ,, were created before man, and plants……………………….

          • http://rationalresponses.blogspot.com/ Jeff Dixon

            If there were people before Adam and Eve, then all Mankind is not decended from them. Therefore, any supposed fall would not be attributed to all of their decendents. This is the mental gymnastics I talk of. You try and rationalize away problems but it creates new problems that you will now have to try to rationalize.

          • Pastor Dwayne

            JEFF,,,, speak of mental gymnastics………That is all mankind since Adam and Eve,,, those before have already been judged Gen 1 : 2 ,,,, Heb 12 :23 ,,last part of the Verse speaks of those before Gen 1 : 2 "and the spirits of just men made perfect" Just men versus wicked men, the Word translates itself Jeff, but you do have to know what it says in it's from front to back ,,, not just what a link or many links tell you ,,,,, remember God said ,, if you want to believe a lie , He will send strong delusion so you will believe a lie ,, and you become a walking fable!!

          • http://rationalresponses.blogspot.com/ Jeff Dixon

            I attended a Methodist Church when I was growing up.

            Of course it is mental gymnastics. You accept the passages you believe are consistent and ignore the passages you cannot reconcile. When the passage says something that does not make sense, you mutter it does not actually mean what it says. My favorite is when Christians claim you have to be a believer in order to understand. Which is hright of mental gymnastics. When someone points to a passage that is difficult to explian, you simply smile and say, "well, if you believed it would make sense." Which, of course, is a complete dodge and shows that the passage makes no sense at all.

            There are people who spend their entire lives studying the bible, have read every passage a hundred times, and they cannot agree on what the verses mean. They study the verses in Hebrew and Greek and still cannot agree on what the passages mean. So, please spare me your silliness about needing to read it all to understand. If that is all it took, then the experts would agree on the meanings.

If your Methodist church was anything like mine ,, on a Sunday morn. service , you might here a message on how to put a farming combine together ,,, instead of hearing a message on salvation , and getting Born Again,,, instead,, somewhere around the age of 13 The church had a 6 week coarse of study , then the following week , sprinkled with water,,(((water baptism is total submersion))) ,, then we were told that our name was written down in heaven ,,,After I was Born Again ,,at age 27,,,I, realized the church was a bunch of phony baloney ,,,At a different Methodist church where funeral services were being held for my Grand Mother,,,before the service I spoke to the Pastor who was holding the service ,the Pastor of that church, and told him since there was a lot of non believers attending the service,, he should bring a message on Salvation,, the more I talked with him I realized he was no more a Christian than the man in the moon,,,,,,There are tens of thousands of people and Pastors in these kind of denominations ,, that study , study, study, the Word and never come to the truth of the Word BECAUSE , they are not Born Again,, and the Word specifically states ,, that the Word of God is Spiritually discerned ,,,, don't get me wrong,, there are true believers in all denominations !!! Also ,, after I was born again, I read in the news paper that a Methodist Pastors office in the church caught fire ,, and he was madder than a hornet because his one year supply of sermons were destroyed,,, If I had read that before I was born again I would have felt sorry for him, but since I read it after being saved , I thought ,,,,((((DUMMY))) The Holy Spirit will give the Born Again Pastor the message hours or days of the week he is to preach !!

          Don't talk to us about contradictions, Jeff. You are contradicting yourself by insisting on visiting a site that is OBVIOUSLY Christian, when you clearly despise any form of faith or religion. Do us all a favor, and find something better to do with your time. You're not here to learn. You're here to bully and harass.

          • http://rationalresponses.blogspot.com/ Jeff Dixon

            That is not a contradiction. It is someone expressing a point of view. How exactly am I bullying or harrassing anyone by expressing my point of view?

            However, once again we see a Christian telling someone to be quiet. Christians are always complaining that they are being silenced, but it is always the Christians in here who try to do just that.

          • Linda F.

            Jeff, please stop trying to be a martyr. Believe it or not, I don't hate you. I don't hate atheists, period! I do, however, despise the fact that you insist on harassing us and cramming your ideals down our throats. It should be clear to you by now that we're not going to budge. We're not going to abandon our faith, just because you and the other atheists say so.

            We are not interested!

            Can't you see that what you're doing can be defined as harassment? Stop cramming our hatred and your atheistic beliefs down our throats. You're harassing us, and it is NOT wrong of me (or anyone else) to ask you to either stop harassing us or just leave. We should be able to discuss the articles without having to deal with you and certain other posters constantly poking fun at us and our faith. It gets real old, real fast.

            And don't expect me to believe that you wouldn't react the same way if Christians barged onto an atheist website and treated you the same way you've been treating us.

            This is a CHRISTIAN website, Jeff. This is a place where CHRISTIANS discuss CHRISTIAN issues and ideals. You're not the least bit interested in learning from us. Your sole purpose on this website is to put us down and mock our faith. How does that help anyone, Jeff? It doesn't even help YOU, because it just fuels your anger and hatred. If you insist on insulting us and cramming your anti-God/anti-faith/anti-people of faith agenda down our throats, you ARE going to meet resistance. You ARE going to encounter people who do NOT want to deal with your hate-filled ramblings. So stop acting so surprised when people ask you to leave and take your hatred with you. We deal with enough, without you and the other haters constantly pecking at us.

            Your hatred is obviously NOT welcome here, and I'm not going to apologize for pointing it out. I will, however, apologize for the times that I have been rude to you and the other haters. There's no excuse for that. But enough is enough, Jeff! We're not going to stop believing in God or sharing our faith with others, just because you badger us and cram your so-called "facts" down our throats. So you might as well give up and find something positive to do with your time. Stop harassing us!

          • http://rationalresponses.blogspot.com/ Jeff Dixon

            It does not surprise me at all that you ask me to leave. I just find it amusing that for all your postering about the persecution that Christians have to deal with, it always the Christians who tell others to leave.

            And there are Christians on the atheist websites.

          • Linda F.

            I'm suggesting that the HATE-FILLED atheists leave, Jeff. You've been harassing us, so it's perfectly reasonable to suggest that the people who are guilty of harassment (you and the other hate-filled atheists) leave. This suggestion cannot rightfully be classified as persecution.

            Stop trying to be a martyr, Jeff, because you're not one. You are a hate-filled man who either cannot see (or doesn't care) that what he's doing can be defined as harassment.

            And while you're at it, stop denying what is blatantly obvious: that Christians all over the world are being persecuted.

          • http://rationalresponses.blogspot.com/ Jeff Dixon

            I am not claiming to be a martyr. Another incorrect idea on your part. There are some Christians who live in areas that are hostile to their religion. However, the USA is not one of those countries. There are people of all religions who live in areas that are hostile to their religion. It is not unique to Christians.

            However, if it makes you happy to call a differing opinion hate speech, then have fun wallowing in your pity party.

          • Linda F.

            Jeff: You are truly blind and naive if you think that Christians are not persecuted in this country. Just because we are not murdered, tortured, or raped, that does not mean that we are not persecuted.

            And I'm not "walling in a pity party," Jeff. I'm pointing out what is blatantly obvious. Nice try, though.

            Why am I even trying to reason with you? You've convinced yourself that you're mocking, ignorant comments cannot be considered hateful. You're so blind that you can't see those comments for what they are: hateful.

            But hey! If you want to continue to live in your bubble of ignorance and hatred, who am I to stop you or attempt to reason with you? Go ahead! We'll see how far that hatred and ignorance will get you.

            Take care. I hope you wake up soon, before it's too late.

            Bye.

          • http://rationalresponses.blogspot.com/ Jeff Dixon

            Since you can meet at your church anytime you like, discuss your beliefs on sites like this without ramification, pray to your heart’s content, no, you are not being persecuted for your beliefs.

            You truly have no idea what persecution actually entails if you think Christians in the USA are persecuted.

          • Pastor Dwayne

            Jeff,,,, you are right in your above statement to Linda F,,very right,,,, BUT VERY,VERY soon that will change !!!! It is kinda like I told Chris P in an earlier post when our guns are gone ,,,, it won't be long before things get very ugly , not only for the Christians ,,but everybody,, They are already talking , by 2017 everybody will have to receive a mark, the Bible calls it the mark of the beast (((the anti christ)),,, there is only one problem,, if I read the word correctly ,,and I will say, I don't know all the truth , but as the Word says, study to show thyself approved.. the problem is , people that have a chance to ask Jesus into his/her life , before the rapture of the Bride of Christ, won,t have a second chance at salvation,, then if you want to live you will receive the mark of the beast, and the Word says all that have the mark will be cast into that lake of fire in the belly of the earth,,,, which scientist even say there is fire in the center of the earth

      Chris, the actual quote is "Love the Lord your God with all of your heart and mind and love your neighbor as yourself." I know a lot of very loving Christian people who walk the walk. Unfortunately, there are people who say hateful things about other's lifestyles. That isn't Christianity, it's hate – the same kind of hate exhibited by radical individuals who believe it is their right to force their lifestyle upon society.

      Not agreeing with someone or speaking up because our healthy, family oriented lifestyle is under attack is not hatred, either. It is our right as Americans.

      My Jesus guy is Almighty God, the creator and He does love us as we are and receives us as we are, but He loves us too much to leave us as we are.

      John 3:16 "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believes in Him will not perish but have everlasting life".

      Oh, give over. There are many people in the U.S. today who are homosexual and don't constantly confront their families, co-workers, and bystanders about "tolerating" their lifestyles. Those "gay barbarians" define "toleration" as "approval" and will settle for nothing less.

      Interesting how this group of people want their "lifestyle" promoted in school, by the state, on TV and everywhere else, but strongly object to anyone leaving the "lifestyle". Welcome to the Hotel California.

    • Bev

      The guy who called them lepers–or said they're like lepers–didn't say anything about being a Christian. And loving your neighbor as yourself doesn't include sitting back and watching while they sin themselves right into hell. The whole idea is to tell them the good news about salvation. But the gays AREN'T LISTENING.

      Are YOU listening?!!?

    • JDB

      Exactly! That's why I don't commit homosexuality because I love myself too much to live in open and flagrant sin, and God's promised judgment. That's why I want homosexuals to stop their perversity and corruption. AIDS was a shot acroos the bow as a warning by God to cease and desist, and I wonder how many truly stopped their depravity because of it.

      After Jonah completed his warnings to Nineveh, they gave up their sin for approximately 100 years. There is hope, if you stop and confess your sin, but if not, the wages of sin is death.

    • Wayne

      What a foolish response. Oddballs and lesbians are oddball and lesbo because they choose to be that way. It is nothing different than getting caught up in drugs, alcohol cigarettes or anything else that becomes addictive. Satan tempts different people in different ways, whatever they are most susceptible to. It is up to us to resist such temptation and call on the Lord our God for deliverance from the temptation. When they accept it as normal, they have fallen fully into the trap and then try to justify it by saying they were born that way. I guess anyone with any problem could say they were born that way, because we are born sinners.

      And don't tell us who we do and do not love. I know it's difficult for you to accept, but it IS possible to love the sinner and hate the sin.

      The next time you want to share your judgmental attitude and false accusations, please feel free to keep them to yourself. If you hate us so much, you're free to leave. We're not stopping you.

      And Christianity is NOT a religion. It is a relationship with God.

    • Zack

      POINT TO PONDER:
      If someone is born with his defective sex organ that renders him or her incapable matrimonial (sexual) relationship with opposite gender, cannot marry or remains physically unfit for marriage. This reason does not make him or her naturally eligible to perform same gender sex or homosexuality. However, such persons who are middlesexed (that is physically neither male nor female) should not be discriminated in the society to find jobs or live as respectable citizens. They should still enjoy all other rights other than marriage and/or illegitimate sex relations which should remain forbidden. As long they refrain from sinful and evil sexual activities, they do desrerve all the recognition and respect and dignity just like normal other human beings.

    • Pastor Dwayne

      Chris ,,,, one problem with your logic,,,,, God didn't create homosexuals,,,, they made the choice themselves,,, Romans chap 1

  • http://www.gordonjensen.org Gordon

    The biblical fact is that when angels came to Lot's home in Sodom, the aggressive, lust driven homosexuals had no perception of who they were dealing with and would have molested them if they could have. They were struck blind by the angels who could have as easily struck them dead. This was to show them in a physical way ( the flesh was the only realm they knew) that they were blind spiritually, and gave them a few more precious hours to consider their ways before the fire and brimstone wiped those cities off the map.

    Marcus and Michele Bachmann have been, in operating their clinic, as angels of God offering a gracious opportunity to people blindly headed into more and more pain and frustration and ultimate destruction.

      Gorden, I know the passage quit well and they did have their chance to change and apparently didn't want to. And if they could have, they would have tried to have sex with the angels. But, they were struck blind so lot and his family were safe. And yes, God could well have allowed the angels to kill them right there and then, but he didn't. But soon after he had to. There was tremendous sin in Sodom and Gomorrah. Even now homosexuals think there is no God and their going to get away with everything they can…they are going to be in for a surprise one day. They can get help, but to tell you the truth I doubt many want any help.

      Not a second thought? Except for the laws that are passed against gays, and the preachers railing against homosexuality on a daily basis? It is almost every thought that Christians have.

      • Chris

        You think too much about homosexuality and Christianity!! What a broad leap "It is almost every thought that Christians have." You are just as hypocritical as the hypocrisy you accuse Christians of. You are entitled to your opinion, but your opinion is not truth. Truth is absolute. Just because a child tells himself he doesn't have to do as his parents direct him, doesn't make it so, and there are consequences for his choice. That is exactly the same here, in simple terms. The Constitution does not ensure rights for social choices. Homosexuality and homosexual indoctrination are not protected by the Constitution. Laws passed against gays? When society losses its moral compass, it most certainly will fall to ruin. It has happened every single time. Look into history, and actually read the Bible, not snippets. Your lack of intelligence and critical thinking shows you to be partial and lazy.

        • Jeff Dixon

          I think about it too much? That is just too funny. Take a look at the articles posted on this website. There are much more focused on homosexuality than any other issue.

  • Political Christian

    IMHO, when one reads in the Bible the words "Love thy neighbor as thyself", they would be wise to heed the advice. As the same Bible also says "No man (person) has ever yet hated their own flesh (themselves)." Stated differently, if one truly cares about where they will be spending eternity, they should care just as much about where those who knowingly and willingly reject what the Word of God says, will be spending eternity.
    That being said, we who belong to God, are only called (commanded) to share the truth of the Gospel with them. Once we have done so, we are no longer accountable for their decision. Should they choose to reject the Gospel, we are to "shake off the very dust off our feet as a testimony against them".(Another way of saying "we wash our hands of the situation".) This isn't to say that the Holy Spirit can't still work in their life and convict them, but that's entirely up to God. Remember, God is patient, but only to a point. Sodom and Gomorrah are [probably] the two most well known examples of this fact.

    They have to scream and shout because they have no real basis for their beliefs or actions. It is the liberal way.

      What "facts" do you have to support your position that being gay is not how they were born? The bible is not a book of facts, so that one is tossed aside immediately. Nature? There are hundreds of animals that engage in same sex behavior.

  • Guy Blanchard

    The Bible says in the end wrong will be right and right will be wrong. We can change that only we need to think that a moral and just society is what we want and a God Fearing Country is what we desire. The Bible also says we can Pray and God(JESUS CHRIST THE ONLY TRUE GOD AND THE GOD OUR NATION WAS FOUNDED ON)will heal our land… If America is really a Christian nation then if all Christians would vote for anyone that is against the killing of babies through abortion than we would get back to being the greatest nation ever. Remember,America became the greatest nation ever under the flag and in GOD WE TRUST.Why not get back to being the greatest again and stop kicking God out of our schools and country. Lets just wake up and stop all the PC garbage and get back to Basics. We are all ONE NATION UNDER GOD. Lets wake up.Socialism does not work and obama and the democrats want to change us into a socialist nation.

    • Franklin Hall

      Guy, you left out some important qualifiers. The Bible does not say we can pray and God will heal our land. It says "If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land." Our sins are many, and our methods of justifying them (instead of repenting and turning from them) are numerous. Often when we pray we talk down to God as if He is so stupid He doesn't know what to do unless we instruct Him, or we act as if God is so selfish He won't do what is right unless we get many people begging Him to change His mind and do what we want, or we pray as if God is blind and does not see our true motives in what we ask, and so on. Hope this helps.

    • Zack

      Guy Blanchard says: " ——(JESUS CHRIST THE ONLY TRUE GOD —–)". However, this is not true, as Jesus said:

      "And the Father Himself , which hath SENT me , hath borne witness of me. You have neither heard His voice at any time, NOR SEEN HIS (i.e. God's) SHAPE". (JOHN 5:37).

      God (or Father, not biological father) of Jesus is the One whom no one has heard or seen HIM. We all know people saw and met Jesus but not his God. Therefore, Jesus is Not "God" as the Bible verse John 5:37 clearly tells us, nor Jesus is a Triune thing.

  • Don H

    Folks, homosexuality has been with us as long as sin itself. It is indeed like a cancer, corrupting our rapidly decaying society. Rest assured that things will continue to get worse. Christians are already persecuted for spreading God's Word…this will continue unabated. Our nation and the world are heading inexorably toward their end. Our only hope is to continue to stay in God's presence and live as witnesses to our neighbors. We may not change anyone's mind, but we just might. God's will is going to happen.

    We must never capitulate and accept that which is unnatural and sinful. In all ways we must live as God's children. God bless us all!

      Homosexuality is a PERVURSION! Nothing Else!

  • daves

    In July of last year, 15-year-old Justin Aaberg took his own life after being bullied for being gay.

    Four other suicides over the last year in the same school district, Anoka-Hennepin, were also linked to “a pervasive atmosphere of anti-gay hostility.”

    It’s hard to imagine a school environment so toxic to lesbian and gay youth that it could lead five students to take their own lives — until hearing about Anoka-Hennepin's district-wide “neutrality” policy on homosexuality, which allows anti-gay bullying to go virtually unchecked.

    In this 40,000-student school district, the “neutrality” policy bans faculty and staff from discussing sexual orientation or recognizing homosexuality — effectively a “gag” rule that officially marginalizes gay students and licenses bullying.

    Petition signer Baiba Olinger, who taught at Anoka-Hennepin district schools for 33 years, said, “I feel we have gone backwards in our policy towards LGBT students. How can ‘being neutral’ work? Can I be ‘neutral’ on someone being female or black?”

    Right now, administrators and faculty are standing by as students are bullied and even beaten. One teen dropped out after being attacked and called a “faggot” in front of teachers and classmates who did nothing to intervene.

    Gay youth are left with the choice of attending school under miserable conditions or leaving – and some are becoming so depressed they take their own lives, as Justin Aaberg did.

    Justin’s mother says, "I had no clue that in a school they would have a climate like this and be okay with it.”

    • dntmkmecomoverther

      In no way do I demean or lessen the wrongs you portray here; but I will convey that in my high school days, 6 classmates committed suicide. all of them under the age of 16. None of them were homosexuals though. Some had been labeled as 'slow', 'stupid' and lazy. Some were not as 'athletic' as others and they drew taunts from the 'jocks'. anyone who appears 'different' was subject to ridicule and harassment.What we are dealing with, I believe, is not a homophobic sentiment, but a behavior vs discipline dilemma. Behaviors in a school setting must have boundaries and there must be a disciplinary structure in place, in which bad behavior is addressed. Somewhere along the line in public schools (as well as some parochial schools) we have lost the ability and/or desire to curb bad behaviors. We read almost weekly of the outcomes of that apathy. Our kids deserve better.

      • daves

        I cannot imagine CHOOSING to be homosexual. I am not a homosexual. Some people are, do you think you could be convinced to convert to homosexuality?

        • dntmkmecomoverther

          No, because I don’t believe that homosexual behavior is glorifying to God; so even if I was inclined I would abstain.  We are able to choose our behaviors. I may want to steal a pen from work; but I don’t have to just because I need a writing utensil.  I may desire to engage in viewing pornographic images; but I don’t have to.  Behavior is controllable to an extent; when it can not be, we label it as ‘addiction’ or some other pathology.  But the bottom line is that behaviors are optional for mankind; it’s a matter of restraint and control (called discipline) vs wanton reckless carrying out of my desire to do anything I want at anytime.It has been said that tolerance is the virtue of people who have no principles.  I would agree.

    • orienteer

      Bullying of any kind should not be permitted at school and society should certainly frown upon it and do what it can to stop bullying. It is also clear that homosexuality is a choice. A person is born female and a person is born black. There are many former-homosexuals, but I don't know of any former black people! There have been many studies done to determine whether a person is born a homosexual, and there is not one shred of evidence that a person is born homosexual. Is it okay for an adulterer to say, "I can't help it I was born an adulterer"?

      • CJM

        Yes, orienteer, there actually are some who were "born homosexual." It has been proven that just prior to birth, there is what is called a 'testosteren bath;" too little or too much creates lesbians/homosexuals. Furthermore, there are children born with partial or complete genitalia of both genders. For these children, the outcome is more favorable in that the problem can be surgically corrected; for the others, life will become a hell for them. Do some research…and don't compare something like homosexuality with adultery, the two have nothing in common.

        • Linda F.

          They do have two things in common: they are both sexual sins, and both of those sins can be forgiven by God.

  • Bob

    Homosexuality is a spiritual AIDs and always results in the spiritual death of the carrier. Those who try to help gays get out of their God-defying lifestyle are the ones who truly love them because they do not want to see them perish for their sin. Those who encourge them in their perverted, God-defying lifestyle are the ones who truly hate them because they are holding the door to Hell open for them.

      To you, Bob, I say baloney! You do not know all the circumstances for each individual; what will become of them on judgement day is between God and that person; you just may be surprised about how forgiving our Lord and Master can be. HIV/AIDs is a disease that will be cured in the future; we cannot be as sure about homosexuality. Furthermore, the "abomination to the Lord" phrase was added durng the Biblical revision by one of Constatine's priest, who, by the way, had a notorious past for homosexuality. That priest's biggest fear was being discovered. I do not practice the lifestyle myself, but I do know people who do. The one's I know condemn the practices committed by those in the article.

    The most Christian point of view one can make is demonstrating the desire to reach everyone with the Gospel of salvation by grace alone through faith alone in Jesus the Christ alone. Romans 1:27-32 indicates two things: first, it is God who judges who is and who is not a homosexual and when He makes such a judgment, it is because of what is completely lacking in their heart toward God. Only God can know this. Thereafter, second, God releases them to work out the desires of their "reprobate mind". Homosexuality begins in the heart and soul and when it spreads to the point where the mind becomes altered such that the person wants nothing more to do with God, God then cuts them loose to live their proud, vaunted "lifestyle", the description of which follows in Romans 1:29-32.

    • Timothy May

      Barbaric? Indeed. Not merely in the thoughts and intents of the heart, but "in deed". Romans 2 tells Christians not to judge such people for it says that we "have done the same things" (Romans 1:29-32). Be warned, though: the passage goes on to note that since God has done the work of judging an individual in Romans 1:27 & 28, while for a time in this life it appears that evil men may run rampant, there will be eternal retribution, for Romans 1:28 indicates that these people are not Believers into Jesus the Christ.

      • Timothy May

        If you are aware of someone who if you ask does not meet the standards of Romans 1:28, there is hope for them according to Romans 10:9 & 10 and John 3:16. Jesus the Christ died on Calvary for all of us. God is no respecter of persons and does not respect one person more than another for the quality of their sins, rather, he looks into the heart to judge the attitude he finds there toward his Son. Christian love is the integrity of God in action working through us to reach all of humanity with the good news of the Gospel. It is most assuredly not merely "giving a cup of cold water", it is "giving a cup of cold water in my name" said Jesus the Christ.

    M. Bachmann will have to deal with everything that is thrown at her. If she can do this without faltering, she will be a great president. Pray for her. She needs to realize that those who oppose her are those who are not on God's side; therefore…

    Romans 8:31 What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who is against us?

  • john

    Evidentely they must think Mrs. Bachmann must have a winning endorsement for Presidential candidatte to defeat their radical social agenda that they support.

    Go Mrs Bachman you have my support , financially as well as any other way possible, you are the angel of our prayers we all need to protect all true Patriotic Americans from the deception of our own evil warped government that has un-officially through very deceptive means taken over the control of America, It's news media, it's Court systems, It's Court ruling justices, and ruling government, by it's appointments of such biased and warped ruling supreme court justices, that are extremely racial, and prejudiced against all patriotic Americans in every way that's possible to destroy American freedoms and rights to live peacably among our selves, and all races living among us…..
    They want to blame us that cry out for justice, and freedoms of speech as RACISTS, WHILE THEY THEMSELVES ARE THE MOST RACISTS THAT LIVE ON PLANET EARTH……..

    • OH My Go….

      JOHN, you are telling the truth, however not only is being gay a sin but sex outside of marriage is a sin and supporting the movie industry is a sin! Saying that you must read Romans 1 at least 19 to the end of chapter. Not only do we sin but get pleasure out of others sin. Sounds crazy I know but little sins are just sins and Judgeable unto God! Looking on someone with lust or hate is adultry & murder. So let's look to Jesus for our hope and maybe these sinners will change! But there is no hope for obama for he has sold out long time ago. For those that study The Bible notice God hardened Pharo's heart , and lead a little rutty boy slay a gaint. Remember His thoughts are higher than the heavens from ours so just trust and be sure your name is written in the Lambs Book Of Life-Amen

      I just gave your post a thumbs down, because it's a pain in the rear to read. Next time, avoid using nothing but capital letters.

      Stop yelling at us!

  • Laura

    The lefty freaks has started this BS long ago and now are encouraging it.

  • tbone

    I don't think the homosexual community should be singled out because its no different than singling out Christians for persecution. We need to love our enemies just like Jesus said. Pray for those who persecute you.

    • http://www.gordonjensen.org Gordon

      The term, "homosexual community" is a term that obscures the real situation. Should we speak of the "adultery community", or the "pyromaniac community" or the "kleptomaniac community"? God did not make these people this way, stop allowing them to blame shift this onto God (anyone with a real knowledge of scripture could never concur). Without this false argument, they have no case. They are not on a parity with racial, ethnic or gender justice issues!

  • Linda F.

    While I do not support the homosexual agenda, I have to say that I also do not support the Bachmann's decision to refer to homosexuals as "barbarians."

    The definition of "barbarian" is as follows:

    1.a person in a savage, primitive state; uncivilized person.

    2. a person without culture, refinement, or education; philistine.

    3. (loosely) a foreigner.

    4. (in ancient and medieval periods)
    a. a non-Greek.
    b. a person living outside, especially north of, the Roman Empire.
    c. a person not living in a Christian country or within a Christian civilization.

    5. (among Italians during the Renaissance) a person of non-Italian origin.

    6. uncivilized; crude; savage.

    7. foreign; alien.

    Homosexuals are not barbarians. At least, not the ones who treat others with respect; those who do not cause disruptions, or engage in acts of violence or hatred, or bully people into submission and/or silence. The only ones who could be considered barbaric, are those who are militant; those who refuse to listen to reason; those who attack people who dare to disagree with them.

    With that said, I do not support what this group of homosexuals did. Causing a disruption solves nothing. It just makes a bigger mess and makes you look like an idiot.

  • justagirl

    Homosexuality is an orientation. Gay is a political movement. I knew many homosexuals well long before the gay movement, and they were not the angry mob mentality of today.

  • ceejay

    Michelle is now at the frontline of all the vile and disgusting attacks by the LEFT. They are afraid of her. Typical LIBTARDS response – instead of responding to her policies – they just physically attack her. This does not help their cause. I support their right to protest but VIOLENCE is not the answer.

    "appeared to show that the clinic believes that prayer can alter people's sexual orientation." "You can't pray away the gay, baby I was born this way." If you can't change things by appealing to a higher power, then you are in a deterministic universe and the "gays" need to quit wasting their time bothering other people and start doing what they do best. But this is to ask too much. Gays are part of the non-sensical world of post-modernism and moral relativism. Everything works fine as long as everyone agrees with you and you can control the politics. The "gays" do not really believe that they are fated or they wouldn't have spent so much time, money, and effort on their propaganda campaign that has been going on for almost 3 decades.

    • http://www.gordonjensen.org Gordon

      For two percent of the population (and it's a small percent of the two percent) to hold the politics of this nation hostage is a tyranny that cannot and will not be tolerated. The backlash is coming!!!

    There is no "gay agenda". They just want equal rights.

    The title should have read "Christian barbarian kills 90".

    Oh that's right "He's not a true Christian"- That's not a "True Church".

    • Penny

      The Gay Agenda (posted this before)
      1) Be treated like a human being.
      2) Spend time with my family.
      3) Buy milk.

  • Zeke199

    Mercy triumphs over judgment – all Christians must pray for God's mercy to be magnified to return people to God for His good pleasure! As a secondary benefit hopefully these militant sinners will repent & wreck less havoc, but that should not be our primary motive to pray for their salvation. God wants sinners to become His children, since unsaved people are not the sons of God but are estranged from Him. The Bible is clear that Christians will face increasing persecution in the latter days so this should surprise no one, and all must understand that far worse things are yet to come.

    We can choose to look either at despair, or look to God for his protection, love, mercy, and miracle of salvation for each & every sinner brought to repentance. There is no shortage of sin in this world to decry, but Christians must first & foremost be crying out to God for salvation to happen and cry out to this world God's love expressed in His Son Jesus.

    Let's not get our eyes overly fixed on this world's problems since they're not worthy of excess attention, but keep our eyes fixed upon Jesus, the author & perfecter of our faith!

      I just discovered that a longtime friend, and fellow Christian, is living in Norway. Thankfully, both he and his wife are fine.

      My thoughts and prayers are with the people of Norway.

  • Eddcrosley

    No need to worry or fret God will dispense with them unless they confess and change. If they do cool if not is their choice. As is for each just instruct them of the error of their ways and God can change there deviant desires to those that which God set into place in the beginning. We can only send the message all must hear and obey God.

    "The Love that Dare Not Speak it's Name" cannot seem to shut up. But it is the disentigration of the family as the cornerstone of society should be America's main concern. And that presents itself (mostly) as father's leaving their families. The Gay issue is tertiary and secondary to this.

    I'm sorry for you Americans, your is a wonderful land peopled by such a diverse mix of the kind, tolerant and good…now I see you attacking each other for differences without a distinction (Romney=Mormon; cut spending, "just not MY spending" and other selfish and unwholsome activities). There are much worse issues before you. Address the erroding family and put the father back in his place; quit spending more than you have; love your wife and your children; worship Jesus Christ. THESE are the things that matter and will make a difference and are more powerful than any political effort. Do you accept government help in any form? Then you are part of the problem. Wean yourself and family off any dole you may be secretly enjoying…while decrying the same.

    • Linda F.

      Do you realize that the issues you listed are issues that every country faces? The U.S. is not the only country that is guilty of the things you mentioned. The entire world faces the same issue.

  • Penny

    So…some protesters get tons of hate and homophobia, but never mind all the gay bashings/murders that have occurred by Christians "in the name of God"?

    Oh, wait. They're not "real Christians."
