I hadn’t really looked deeply into the whole circus surrounding l’affaire Davis until recently because it smacked of all the Leftist caricatures of white, rural Christians brought to life. One of the last groups of people others are free to mock and hate. But a few thoughts come to mind after a bit of reading, and some debates on not-always-social social media. First off is the oft repeated assertion that

When there are no standards for marriage, marriage will cease to exist … [Darleen Click]
Same-sex marriage is being considered inevitable (and anyone who even questions it will be punished). Now on to the next frontier — let’s watch serious lawyers seriously arguing that there is a constitutional right to polygamy The Emory Law Journal has a symposium on the constitution and polygamous marriage. Some articles are on whether the government may criminalize adults entering into polygamous religious marriages, even when the parties aren’t claiming

Data faked in gay same-sex marriage study [Darleen Click]
But don’t worry … I’m sure the “fake but accurate” and “speaks to larger truths” excuses are soon to be expressed … A study claiming that gay people advocating same-sex marriage can change voters’ minds has been retracted due to fraud. What’s more, the funding agencies credited with supporting the study deny having any involvement. The study was published last December in Science, and received lots of media attention. It

They are consenting adults; so NY State sees nothing wrong about an uncle and niece marriage [Darleen Click]
Once marriage became a Love-Right, then limits on number and consanguinity became irrelevant. The state’s highest court has toppled a cultural taboo — legalizing a degree of incest, at least between an uncle and niece — in a unanimous ruling. While the laws against “parent-child and brother-sister marriages … are grounded in the almost universal horror with which such marriages are viewed … there is no comparably strong objection to

It’s come to this: Government tells Christian ministers to perform same-sex marriages or face jail, fines [Darleen Click]
Now where are the staunchiest among us who said this would never ever, pinky promise, happen? COEUR D’ALENE, Idaho – Alliance Defending Freedom attorneys filed a federal lawsuit and a motion for a temporary restraining order Friday to stop officials in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, from forcing two ordained Christian ministers to perform wedding ceremonies for same-sex couples.

Same-sex couple to sue for church wedding “I am still not getting what I want.” [Darleen Click]
Told you so. Wealthy gay dad, Barrie Drewitt-Barlow, says he and his civil partner Tony will go to court to force churches to host gay weddings. He told the Essex Chronicle that he will take legal action because “I am still not getting what I want”. A Government Bill legalising gay marriage passed Parliament recently but it included measures to protect churches from being forced to perform same-sex weddings. Mr

That didn’t take long: Same-sex “marriage” murders friendship [Darleen Click]
Unfuckingbelievable dicentra BTW the purpose of pushing SSM is not to be fair to the historically disadvantaged: it’s to provide a pretext to engage in the actions listed above. The Left wants us God-botherers discredited and humiliated and as silent as the tomb. Pushing SSM is about the niftiest way to do that. Ernst‘s response Well, that, and to finish the job of atomizing the individual by eradicating what remains

Slate’s Sally Kohn: Conservative/libertarian support of same-sex marriage NOT welcome if you keep insisting marriage is actually good or something [Darleen Click]
Kohn sees gay marriage as the way to destroy marriage In 2006, as a segment of gay rights organizations began the full-fledged push for marriage equality in America, another set of queer activists, joined by many straight people of color and feminist allies, voiced concern about making gay marriage a goal, let alone the centerpiece of the gay rights movement. Several prominent activists wrote and signed onto a statement called
