Romans 1:26-27
That is why God abandoned Homosexuals to their shameful desires. Even the women turned against the natural way to have sex and instead indulged in sex with each other. And the men, instead of having normal sexual relations with women, burned with lust for each other. Men did shameful things with other men, and as a result of this perversion, they suffered within themselves the penalty they deserved.

Forgive me for asking, but exactly what bible translation are you referencing? In the various ones I have access to I do not see the term 'homosexual'. Please also note Romans 2:1,12498846
Rom 2:1-2
"Therefore you have no excuse, whoever you are, when you judge others; for in passing judgment on another you condemn yourself, because you, the judge, are doing the very same things."
NRSV
Just asking....

Yes there is a typo.

Yes, there is a typo.

There is no "judgement" if the homosexuals are practicing it openly and the scripture would then strictly apply.

Most of the time I think Vanessa Ben Dover is doing excellent parody. But sometimes he's so good that I forget.

As opposed to Deerslayer, who's the real thing.

Carnival: South Carolina mess

America's carnival of "family values" Republicans caught in sex scandals has reached a pinnacle in South Carolina. Gov. Mark Sanford refuses to resign, even though his wife has left him, state government is hamstrung, numerous voices are demanding that he quit, and some legislators are talking impeachment.

This godawful mess began in June when the governor vanished for five days. Aides said he was hiking the Appalachian Trail -- but news reporters soon discovered that he had flown to visit a lover in Argentina.

The self-righteous Sanford began blubbering apologies. He wrote a scripture-filled newspaper commentary saying God would change him and make him better. He said he sought spiritual guidance at a mysterious fundamentalist center on C Street in Washington.(The center's residents include two other family values Republicans accused of adultery: Sen. John Ensign, R-Nevada, and Rep. Chip Pickering, R-Miss.).

Sanford's wife took their four sons and left the Governor's Mansion. More trouble followed. The Associated Press revealed that Sanford broke state law by not reporting 35 trips he took on private planes of wealthy backers. Demands for the governor's resignation soared.

Did C Street Christian Cult influence the Stupak Amendment ?

November 11, 9:48 PMPhiladelphia Progressive ExaminerTim McCown

Rachel Maddow may have been the first to ask this question but certainly won't be the last to ask, how much influence did the group, The Family, have on Bart Stupak's ( D-MI ) authoring his anti-abortion amendment to the health care bill. Stupak has lived at the house at 133 C Street owned by a secretive religious group known as "The Family" for a long time but denies any knowledge about the group. Many believe this is due to the groups sworn secrecy as opposed to actual truth.
The Fellowship started 70 years ago according to a Rolling Stone Article by Jeff Sharlet dated 1/25/06. The founder was an evangelist named Abraham Vereide, who started the so called God led cells comprising Senators, generals, corporate executives and preachers. Vareide believed that God's chosen would construct the kingdom of God on earth with Washington as its capitol. They would rule behind the scenes so they wouldn't be accused of pride or hunger for power.
Dixiegrrrrl on Democratic Underground dated 7/14/09 posted that in the prayer groups they hold, the men are to reveal the most intimate details of their lives, their desires, failings and ambitions. They are to talk of lust, anger, and infidelities, the more shameful the better since the goal was to break one's own will.
The men are striving for what Jeff Coe, the current leader of The Family, calls "Jesus plus nothing." This is to be a government led by Christ's will alone. In his exortations to the faithful Coe uses a David Koresh version of Chriatianity mixed in with healthy doses of Mao, Stalin and Hitler.
The C Street house is listed in tax records as a church but it seems to function as a rooming house for some Senators and Congressmen. Currently living in the house besides Stupak are Rep. Zack Wamp ( R-Tn.), Sen Tom Coburn ( R Ok.), Rep. Mike Doyle ( D-Pa ), Sen John Ensign ( R-Nv ) and Rep. Heath Shuler ( D-NC ).
This house became a national focus because of the infidelities of Sen .Ensign and Gov. Mark Sanford. Sen. Tom Coburn is also alleged to have attempted to act as a middleman to broker a payoff to Ensign's mistress to keep her quiet. Sanford claims he recieved spritiual guidance from C Street after his affair became public.
Jeff Sharlet, who has authored a book on this group once lived in another of the Families rooming houses in Arlington, Va. He stated that Stupak's denial is false. Stupak's involvement in this cult is much greater than he is admitting. Stupak was a Family assigned mentor to some of the younger men who roomed with Sharlett and is a leader of the group.
