    You guys should start talking about guaranteeing access to affordable healthcare. You know, real issues. For a change.

    We don't want to hear that nonsense. It shouldn't be part of any public meeting.

    Ceremonial Deism has long been recognized as ritual, not religion.

    Why would you be opposed to Christians attending services? It would seem to me that the only reason that someone would have for opposing Christians attending services would be because they oppose Christians for being Christian.

    Yes, Biblical marriage - which is marriage between a man and a woman.

    In this case the company supports groups who are hostile to the LGBT community.

    In this case the company is pushing a non business related agenda, and all I see is crocodile tears from the Christian right that others are countering that agenda.

    What's wrong with someone having that opinion?

    Oh but I suppose your opinion DOES count! :roflol:

    I'm guessing you cannot explain HOW exactly such groups are "hostile" to the LGBT community. Perhaps you argue that it's "hostile" to support traditional marriage! :roflol:

    Obama always said it was his belief, he never tried to actively force his beliefs on others

    but then Obama realized the same used to be true of interracial marriage as it was for intragender marriage

    Obama realized it was not the government's business who a person loved, as long as they were both consenting adults

    of course then the right showed what they supported electing Trump, adultry, stormy relationships, ect.... so moral

    the bible has nothing to do with legal marriage

    most religious people choose legal marriage too, religious marriage has no legal binding

    some people add religion to their marriage, and that is their choice too

    Oh, but everyone else who has that belief HAVE "tried to actively force [their] beliefs on others?"

    What the hell does this have to do with legal marriage? Legal marriage IS the government! By fighting for same sex marriage, people were asking the government to get involved in their lives!

    Oh, so supporting a candidate means supporting everything about them?

    It seems Christian right wingers got a problem with an opinion of a democrat.

    You responded to the message of "marriage is exclusively the union of one man and one woman", and you can not possible figure out how such a message is hostile to the LGBT community yourself? Apparently this topic goes clear over your head as well.

    Apparently it goes clear over your head that many gay people were and are against same sex marriage! :roflol:

    You still haven't read the OP?

    So much for your:
    I'm guessing you cannot explain HOW exactly such groups are "hostile" to the LGBT community.

    The way you just can drop your point, and make up the next unfounded point.
    It's apathetic.
