Evangelical Christian’s happiness is not important. Following the rules and blind obedience. They even talk about sacrificing the worldly idea of happy for being dutiful and religious. They don’t expect to be happy and don’t value you it and care nothing about it.

But the whole fricking point of Christianity is to live your life in fear: afraid of annoying God, afraid of being ejected from their One and Only True Christian Church, afraid of the devil, and totally terrified by their innate urges. Their chosen symbol is a torture device for a good reason.

But true religion is not this. It is assurance that ALL fall short of the glory of God and thus Jesus, so that ALL are accepted in the Kingdom of God. No need for the church as an organized religion for that. They are directed only to love each other. Many, many false Christians and churches.

Their own book & god are clear that the "Law" is very much still in effect. Of course, as is par for the course in the bible, it is contradicted in Romans 6 by Paul. But as the first two quotes come from Jesus, i.e. "God", and Romans was written by Paul, I'd say that "God's" words take precedence.

90 million out of 245 million didn’t vote. That’s 36% of the eligible voters. He received just under 77 million out of 245 million votes, which is only 31%. Still bad, but about 168 million (69%) which is a little over 2/3 did not vote for him.

Imo there are two reasons why someone wouldn't want gay marriage to be accessible 1. Ignorance or 2. Religion. Often hand in hand. Christianity believes that that sex is between a man and a women because baby making. Thats a women's role to them. Children.

Right, there are so many examples of platonic and lustful relationships that are between the same sex in nature. Dolphins, lions, otters. As you say penguins being a more platonic version. Homosexuality IS the normal. I believe thats it's the true default.

Don’t know about Default. But it’s at least a valid option. Not an abomination. I look at it this way. I’m autistic. I didn’t ask for it. It isn’t a choice. It’s not a trauma response. It’s just who I am. Being gay is the same thing.

Marriage is a matter of religion. The State should not be involved. If your religion will not allow gay marriage, create a new one that does. The state should sanction civil unions between any two consenting adults. There is a public interest in civil unions because 2 heads are better than 1.

Easy fix: just change references to “spouse” in these laws to “domestic partner” while granting domestic partner status to everyone who is already married. A basic “search and replace.” Lots of laws are going to be reconsidered soon in any event. That’s what happens when an election flips power.

Thomas even wants to “revisit” the Loving decision even though he is in an interracial marriage. He is so weird.

KeithDB @keithdb.bsky.social

Thomas has not directly suggested revisiting Loving. However, the substantive due process doctrine he is so critical of is part of the basis to Loving. However, another part was equal protection, and he could defend Loving on that basis.

Agreed, though they’ll argue (disingenuously) that equal protection is not violated as people of different colors are fully free to marry after their own kind and those marriages would be respected. They’ll argue something along those lines when they overturn Obergefell.
