I don't think the caller knows what "secular" means.

@prokentsful Everyone is entitled to their beliefs. What bothers me is when Christians selectively believe the Bible to justify their opinions. True, it does say in the Bible that homosexuality is an abomination, but in that SAME book (Leviticus), it says eating shellfish is an abomination. If all sin is equal, then I guess all those Christians going to Red Lobster are doomed for a fiery eternity in hell.

Religious people need to realize that laws can't be derived from religious beliefs.

The phrase 'in god we trust' has nothing to do with the one true god. How can a phrase like that be put on the dollar bill along side the image of the All seeing eye on the pyramid which is Masonic who believe in satan but wierdly swear on the bible. You have to remember that the name God is a title like Lord or Master and yes satanists who are out to decieve people do refer to Satan as God because he is their master.

"It is a fact America was founded on Christian principles" Maybe in some paralel universe.

@cocoalrose I say, follow every law in the bible, or follow none.

No picking and choosing, which is what is being done nowadays.

I'm not homosexual myself, but I hate Christians who appose gay marriage. It's just pathetic. There is obviously no god, the idea of god is a preposterous, idiotic concept. Only a true moron would choose to let someone else run their life!

02:20 "sin" someone please show me in the constitution "sin"

The constitution does not deal with sin and the caller ought to have been reminded of this.

It's funny how the caller couldn't even come up with one reason to suggest that homosexuality is detrimental to humanity without consorting to the bible.

@JohnnyKubark what about incest. if two consulting adults who happen to be mother and son or brother and sister want to marry. should they be given the right? they are already trying to normalize incest by using the same arguments they used for normalizing homosexuality. search "legalize incest". Its disgusting, but people are crazy these days. so yes, by your logic, consulting adults who are family can marry. and to me that is just plain abnormal and horrible.

Not a Fundie here: You guys should take more notes and stop muting the caller in the middle of their argument; it takes the fairness out of the entire ordeal. You guys make good arguments for reason but if you were to be on Fox news and they did the same to you, I would hope you would be outraged. :D Take notes, let them speak, and then proceed to insert reason/real world rationality. :D

the caller makes no good points at all, what a retard
