Bully Chris Christie: We shouldn’t let Christian businesses opt out of gay ceremonies

Image
English: Governor of New Jersey Chris Christie (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie said that all businesses – including those owned and operated by Christians – must serve homosexual "weddings" if asked. In a televised interview with Chris Wallace on " Fox News Sunday ," Christie said that while churches should be free as far as their "religious activity" is concerned, all other entities should not be allowed to freely determine their participation in homosexual "weddings." When Wallace asked the presidential hopeful if businesses had the religious freedom to decide whether or not to participate in gay "weddings," Christie replied, "Religious institutions should be able to decide how they conduct their religious activity.  The rest of the folks in the United States need to follow the law." Christie qualified that the freedom he believes churches have is within "religious activity.&qu

Chris Christie: Clerks must perform same-sex ‘marriages’ regardless of their religious beliefs

Governor of New Jersey at a town hall in Hillsborough, NJ 3/2/11 (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) Chris Christie is not known for nuance. This time, he has turned his fiery personality loose on county clerks and other officials who have religious objections to performing same-sex “marriages.” In a tone usually reserved for busting teachers' unions, Christie told clerks who hold traditional values, “You took the job, and you took the oath.” He would offer no exemption for an individual whose conscience would not allow him to participate in a union the vast majority of the world's religions deem sinful. “When you go back and re-read the oath it doesn’t give you an out. You have to do it,” he said. He told a reporter that there “might” be “individual circumstances” that “merit some examination, but none that come immediately to mind for me.” “I think for folks who are in the government world, they kind of have to do their job, whether you agree with the law or you don’t,” the pugna

Corporations are the enemy to true marriage?

Brendan Eich, Mozilla Corporation Taken by AcidJazzed 03:14, 22 January 2007 (UTC) 11/21/2006 (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) A man I know was a top executive at a major American media company, one of the biggest and most influential in the world. A young man came into his office one day asking to display a rainbow sticker with the words “safe space.” This was a decade ago and this man, a faithful Catholic, felt confident he could demur without reprisal though he could see the veiled threat of being “outed” as less than gay friendly, as a homophobe. But, in these post- Brendan Eich days, it is doubtful my friend would feel as safe to say no because things have gotten exponentially worse since then. Two weeks ago more than 300 corporations issued a friend-of-the-court brief in the upcoming Supreme Court case that would impose same-sex “marriage” on the whole country. These corporations would impose faux marriage on the 60 percent of the population in 34 states who have voted to ens

Gov. Chris Christie: banning parents from helping their children overcome the destructive pull of sinful homosexuality:

Governor of New Jersey at a town hall in Hillsborough, NJ 3/2/11 (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) New Jersey   Gov. Chris Christie  succumbed to homosexual activist propaganda and myths in  signing into law  a bill that bans professional counselors in the Garden State “from attempting to change a minor’s sexual orientation.” LaBarbera made the following points regarding Republican Christie siding with the “Big Gay Government” agenda by banning parents from helping their children overcome the destructive pull of homosexuality: 1) Christie cited the pro-“gay” American Psychological Association  in claiming that efforts to change sexual orientation “can pose critical health risks” to children. But he strangely did not mention the existence of successful, happy  former  homosexuals. Nor did he acknowledge the widely-available data pointing to the myriad health risks associated with homosexual behavior itself – such as the  rising HIV risk  among “young men who have sex with men.”

New Jersey Senate pulls bill codifying same-sex “marriage”

The New Jersey Senate has pulled a bill that would legislate same-sex "marriage" in the state. Political leaders cited advice from national same-sex "marriage" advocacy organization Lambda Legal , and said they plan to resume their efforts in the 2014-2015 legislative session. New Jersey Senate Majority Leader Loretta Weinberg  said she decided not to pursue S. 3109 on Tuesday because Lambda Legal said the judicial decision that allowed same-sex “marriage” licenses to be given was satisfactory. Some Democrats in the state Senate, including Weinberg,  had expressed concerns  that the September 27 Superior Court decision failed to respect religious freedom. Mercer County Superior Court Judge Mary Jacobson found same-sex "marriage" to be a constitutional right, and when the state Supreme Court strongly indicated it would allow homosexuals to receive marriage licenses, New Jersey Governor Chris Christie backed off from his previous strong efforts in fa

Homosexual politician says Homosexual Attraction Therapy equals child abuse and we will remove your child

Image
Few people doubt that New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie hopes to become president in 2016. Unfortunately for him, he may have just signed away any chance of that. On Monday, Christie signed A3371, a draconian piece of legislation that bars licensed therapists from helping children overcome unwanted same-sex attractions , behavior or identity. This law bans help for minors even when – as is so often the case – those same-sex attractions arise from childhood sexual abuse by the likes of a Jerry Sandusky . This law will prohibit minors and their parents from receiving counseling they desire and will force counselors to violate ethical codes because they will not be able to help clients reach their own counseling goals. This law would enslave children – whether abused or not – to a subjectively determined sexual identity that they reject. The connection between homosexual abuse and “gay identity” is undeniable. Consider this: Researchers from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevent

Chris Christie signs ban on reparative therapy; Liberty Counsel promises to sue

TRENTON , NJ , August 19, 2013 ( LifeSiteNew s.com ) – Chris Christie signed a controversial bill that bans parents from seeking therapy to help their underage children reduce unwanted same-sex attraction today. In his signing statement (reproduced below), he said he supported the “government limiting parental choice on the care and treatment of their own children” only “reluctantly.” However, he felt that “exposing children to these health risks without clear evidence of benefits that outweigh these serious risks is not appropriate.” Christie also signed a bill allowing children greater access to edible medicinal marijuana. Critics say medicinal marijuana has not been adequately tested. In a press release that accompanied the statement, Christie said, “I’ve always believed that people are born with the predisposition to be homosexual,” quoting a statement he made on CNN . “My religion says [homosexuality is] a sin. But for me, I don’t” agree. New Jersey is the se
