On the West Coast, men embraced men as husband and husband, and bouquet-clutching women swapped bands of gold and vows of marriage. In the Midwest, floodwaters rose to epic levels, the dreaded, tree-gobbling ash borer crept into Chicago and the fish in Lake Michigan began dying by the thousands, hemorrhaging from an Ebola-like virus.

The contrast was striking—joy vs. pain. It raised one simple, inescapable question: What happened to God hating gay people?

1. Well, on a personal note, our marriage started going straight

down the crapper when all those people in CA got married.

They just look so....freaking....happy...

Don't they care what they are doing to US?

[skooooo]

7. It's cheapened my marraige as well....

Nothing's been the same!!!!

:sarcasm:

[JanMichael]

9. The sanctity just....well, left.

it happened fast, too.

[skooooo]

10. Will my spouse leave me now?????

That's the question I live with EVERY FUCKING DAY NOW!


:rofl:

[JanMichael]

11. We have laid awake every night worrying about the same thing!

I wonder if the married people on FR have a support group going yet?

[skooooo]

12. The flood gates are open.

May God help us all!

I'll pray for you, JanMichael.

21. Is this THE biggest NON-story, or what?

Good luck with it gays!

13. My marriage has been destroyed!

[skooooo]

14. Did your spouse turn gay too??!

2. "What happened to God hating gay people?"

5. LOL! Actually, we had a lovely run of sunny weather that week.

Looks like She was part of the party.

(On my walk last night, I saw my neighbors had run a new flag up their flagpole. It was a new CA flag, with a rainbow where the red stripe at the bottom used to be. )

17. I just totally stole that

Now, there's a flag I can salute. :patriot:

[EFerrari]

19. Hey, Oedi. When I saw it, I laughed out loud.

:toast:

6. Well, God (from a theistic worldview) did create gay people.

8. No wonder we had a record heat wave here for the last 4 days!

I knew there had to be a reason for it. This was supposed to be
our June gloom weather, and what we get? A heat wave that broke all records.

What next? Earthquakes? I hope the honeymoons happen in another State.



:evilgrin:

[Oeditpus Rex]

18. And now, you never will be

It's just all so meaningless anymore. :cry:

[Captain Hilts]
