"[I]f gay 'marriage' is ever legalized, it is likely to result in unprecedented restrictions on freedom of speech and even thought"
D. A. Carson - The Intolerance of Tolerance
Why is it that my voice always seems to be loudest when I am saying the dumbest things?
[I] f gay ‘marriage’ is ever legalized, it is likely to result in unprecedented restrictions on freedom of speech and even thought”
I’m not sure if I agree with this sentiment.
- Firstly it is legal in some US Sates. And it is legal is other countries … I believe Canada (Don Johnson perhaps you can verify this)
- I don’t see at all how it restricts freedom of thought (what is this some kind of mind control?!)
- Freedom of speech in the US: I don’t see this either.
What I could see:
- Along the way some linkage between 501(c)(3) recognition and acceptance of gay marriage
- If that happens churches would have a choice … keep the benefits of 501(c)(3) AND accept gay marriage OR lose 501(c)(3)
Jim, you might want to google “Guy Earle Speech”
“The Hon Jo Ann Downs faces prosecution by the South African Human Rights commission for hate speech after she used a television appearance to criticise the hosting of the Mr Gay World event on Easter Sunday this year in Gold Reef City, Johannesburg.”
