    right now the safe course is to be on the Lord's side of the line. Every single person in a society could believe in gay marriage but that don't make it right.
    If the gop chooses to go the ways of the world they will definitely lose the house

    No it certainly don't. DERP!

    As for Newt, what does anyone expect? He is no longer running and doesn't have to suck up to the morons that make up the "corrosive" GOP. I mean, you don't expect anyone with an IQ greater than 15 to believe that shit.

    Gingrich is such a weasel. It's pretty funny. Stupid or not, kudos to the GOP for not falling for his bullshit again.

    It’s hard to say with Gingrich, if he’s indeed seen the light of reason and justice.

    Assuming he’s sincere, this will place more pressure on social conservatives as they see more republicans accept the Constitutional requirement to allow same-sex couples access to marriage.

    I guess Gingrich has "evolved" like Obumkin. It must be a virus going around.

    So, Gingrich takes another step closer to being conservative.

    Good for him.

    His baggage train is still too long for anyone to vote for him.

    He should go back to teaching. It is what he does best.

    Actually, it has been more than one federal court that has said so.

    Do you really think Our Lord cares whether or not gay people get married?

    Yes, I know that homosexuality is a sin. So, is eating pork. I love pork fried rice, like pork chops and a lot of pork. Eating seafood is a sin as well. I don't eat seafood, because I am allergic to it. But chances are you do. How about cutting your beard? Tatoos? I could go on with this, but I think you get the picture.

    "The law" was designed for one purpose and one purpose only... to show us our need for a savior. We are all sinners. Every last one of us.

    It would be best if no one sinned at all, but even if homosexuals over threw the sin of homosexuality, which has entrapped them, they would still continue to sin.

    So, what is the answer? The answer is only the Grace of God and that alone. What can any of us do to escape sin?

    Edit: I guess what I am trying to say is how do we know which side of sinners God is on or is he on either side?
