Some might want to take my &#8220;Black Card&#8221; away for saying this, but I have no problem with Olbermann comparing struggles gays have with the trials and tribulations of African Americans. Yes I know it&#8217;s different, but people are born gay like I was born Black&#8230;<strong>IT&#8217;S NOT A CHOICE!!<\/strong> Do you really think homosexuals would choose a lifestyle that is looked down upon in society? I&#8217;m not going to punish a group of people for being born a certain way. I just can&#8217;t do it.<\/p>\n<p>The divorce rate is spread across the spectrum. Men and women of all affiliations get divorced and remarried. People between marriages commit acts of fornication. Yet, with Prop 8 passing somehow the status quo is sanctified. What?<\/p>\n<p>The people who vote for these measures have probably fallen short of the glory of God. Your idea that somehow God&#8217;s law doesn&#8217;t fully apply to you because you find it inconvenient or you know you will be saved through repentance is going to be the end of you. Your demonic need to punish strangers when you yourself have more issues than Sports Illustrated is the ultimate proof that in the Creator&#8217;s eyes you are the least in the Kingdom of God and will most likely not be saved from his coming judgment. Have fun performing fellatio on Satan in Hell. Oh and BTW, when Satan cums&#8230;he cums fire.<\/p>\n<p>Do unto others, as you would have them do unto you. If your perception of God is correct then judgment will come soon enough. There isn&#8217;t a need to make that call yourself.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve always enjoyed watching Keith Olbermann. More times than not I agree with him.
