Counterfeit Marriage Rejected in Maine
Lynchburg, VA – Matt Barber, Director of Cultural Affairs with both Liberty Counsel and Liberty Alliance Action, issued the following statement on news that the voters of Maine have rejected counterfeit "same-sex marriage" by 53% - 47%:
"There's good news and bad news here," said Barber. "The good news is that even in one of the most liberal States in the Union, Maine, the people have once again rejected the ridiculous and oxymoronic notion of 'same sex marriage.' The momentum has again shifted – hopefully for good this time – in favor of protecting legitimate marriage. A counterfeit is a counterfeit. An orange is an orange no matter how much you want it to be a turnip. This isn't about 'marriage.' It's about hurting and broken people desperately seeking affirmation of an objectively deviant lifestyle. One that, even in their heart of hearts, they know to be a dead end. As for the militant 'No on 1' homosexual activists? I'm reminded of spoiled children dressing up and playing house, refusing to come in when mom calls for dinner.
"Here's the bad news. The margin of victory could have been greater. Many behind the 'Yes on 1' campaign, rather than simply telling the truth, chose the Neville Chamberlain approach. They merely circled the wagons around the word 'marriage,' even suggesting that 'domestic partnerships' ('gay marriages' by another name) are acceptable. This makes no sense. If that's a viable compromise, then why not simply allow 'gay' duos the word 'marriage'? It's an incongruity that demands an explanation. This is an historic battle for the minds and souls of our children – for our very culture. The mealy-mouthed approach must end. This is not just about 'marriage.' It has everything to do with forced affirmation of homosexuality – under penalty of law. Indeed everyone who fought hard to defend marriage in Maine is to be congratulated, but if it weren't for a brave group of truth tellers – Paul Madore, Peter LaBarbera and Brian Camenker – who came to Maine in the final hour to hold a press conference and address the pink elephant in the room – homosexual deviancy and the radical 'gay' agenda – counterfeit marriage might have prevailed."

WHAT IS THE GOAL OF HOMOSEXUAL ACTIVISTS

What is it that homosexuals really want. The Holy Scriptures are inspired by The Holy Spirit of The Lord Jesus and they are true. We can look at the story God tells us about the cities in the dead sea plain. Abraham asked God if He would spare Sodom, and the cities of the dead sea plain, IF there were 10 righteous people in Sodom. God destroyed Sodom, so we know that there was not 10 righteous people in Sodom. The two angels went on into Sodom and the men of the city tried to rape them. Gen 19:4 Before they had gone to bed, ALL THE MEN FROM EVERY PART OF THE CITY of Sodom—both young and old—surrounded the house. 5 They called to Lot, "Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us so that we can have sex with them." (I submit that by this account, there was not one righteous man in the city except maybe Lot)- We can see here a very important principle that God is trying to show us. The very nature of sin is shameful and by the very nature of sin, all sinners want to get all to participate in their sin. They think this will make their shame less, if all sin. The sin of homosexuality is no different and it is sin. By the very details of the act of homosexuality, it fills homosexuals with shame. They are so filled with shame that most try to compel others to participate in their sin of homosexuality, so that they will feel less shame. Homosexuals especially feel shame in the presence of those that are not homosexual. It is the natural way of sin, to want to force ALL to participate in homosexual acts. This is why the men of Sodom attacked the angels. This is why the homosexuals are trying to force our children in our schools to accept homosexuality. The homosexual activists will not be satisfied until all people are homosexual. Read their magazines and see for yourself what their final goals are. To accept homosexuality is to accept the forced homosexuality of your children. - Lou Newton
