At this point... I am not sure what your point is... to idolize Kim Davis, glorify the constitution or honor devil worshippers for sharing your personal opinion...

Well, myself, I do not object to Kim Davis standing on her beliefs... I do not think cherry picking PART of God's word is okay... I think she has mis-used her job as a platform to force her value on others, and because she is an elected official, I do not believe she has the same "freedom" a private citizen or business owner does. We will see how it plays out... but I am pretty confident jsr12 thinks along similar lines... yet he is being called "unchristian" for having a different perspective. You can decide for yourself which is more offensive to God.... thinking Kim Davis should have opted for an alternate solution for her faith conflict... or railing against other members who have a differing perspective about the "good" Kim Davis is acctually doing?
You can't mix religion with government. This always results and tyranny. History has proven this. I am a Bible believing Christian but I hate religion. Religion calls 19 min to fly planes into buildings on 9/11. Religion caused the Roman Catholic Church to kill and torture millions of people. Religion caused a tall fiddler to slaughter Jews by the millions.
If you'd go back all the way to the beginning (not that I expect you to) you'd see I was being accused of promoting gay marriage, constantly, even though I said from the beginning (and constantly) that I was against it.. You say I continued to make Mitspa the bad guy by pointing out something he said.. That sounds a lot like the same in Mitspa making me out as some bad guy by constantly twisting my words into thinking I approve gay marriage, when in no way I don't. It'd help you (and anyone) to fully read everything, and not just part or one side. Like they say. There is always two sides to an argument.

For those interested in the Good, the Bad and the Ugly of Liberty Counsel (those representing Davis).
Did Liberty Counsel do right by Kim Davis?

Actually, most municipalities have laws on the books regulating profanity. See what happens if you fling a finger and curse a cop! A guy did that recently from his porch as the police cruised by. he's in jail, doing the same to the judge. That's all they had on him. Vulgar suggestions to a woman in a store parking lot were witnessed, the man in jail for sexual harassment., that being enough to break his probation.
The Bible doesn't forbid gambling as far as I know.
Lying is already illegal in many situations, especially to the FBI or to a court.
A law against immoral thoughts would be unenforceable, there being no witnesses or evidence of a bad deed. That one is already covered in the commandments of Christ, an issue between such a thinker and the Lord.

“I have no doubt your opinion of mey has been swayed by the liberal media gotchas. I am here because ther(sp) is a war on Christians in America. This country was founded on the belifes(sp) of Christianity!! This is a fact.
I sit here with my Bible close to my heart, comuning(sp) with the Lord. I have a lot of time to think. I think of what Rose(sp) Parks must have felt. She had it easy let me tell you. The whole World is watching me. Under this microscope. I am now not only and example for my family, but for the millions of Christians in American facing persecution and the loss of their fundamental right ofreligious freedom. I know now that I have been chosen for the highest purpose.
