Hello, John; Its just a sign of the times in this Godless world.

"50 But I have a baptism to be baptized with; and how am I straitened till it be accomplished!
51 Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather division:
52 For from henceforth there shall be five in one house divided, three against two, and two against three.
53 The father shall be divided against the son, and the son against the father; the mother against the daughter, and the daughter against the mother; the mother in law against her daughter in law, and the daughter in law against her mother in law." (Luke 13)

"3 For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.
4 But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.
5 Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.
6 Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.
7 For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night.
8 But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation.
9 For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ," (Thessalonians 5)

Its just a part of our times, John.
Santiago(the watcher)

God bless.

John

I know you think Homosexuality is a sin. We dont agree on that. I am very happy to hear that you dont think picketing the funeral is appropriate. I think that is a far more Christian(or godly, since I appear to have lost the right to think I can call something Christian:-) ) attitude than that which was displayed at the funeral. I admire your willingness to speak out on that.

I dont believe the people that were picketing were possessed. I think they are people who have lost sight because of their zealousness. I think that makes them very dangerous. Just for the record, there are zealots like that in every religion. I am not picking on christianity. there are jewish zealots, Muslim zealots, Hindu zealots, new age zealots, you name it, and there out there.
