And were everyone in those buildings and airplanes supporters of gay rights? Or is this an example of our jealous and angry god throwing another tantrum and deciding to kill them all?
No wonder fundamentalists are so afraid of their god that they feel the need to use state power to enforce obedience to Biblical principles. If their god is displeased enough to wipe out the sinners, even they are liable to get caught in the cross-fire!

Re: Don't Quote Me
This is an interesting statement. So this nation was under God's protection when god-fearing white settlers were murdering Native Americans and stealing their land? Was this nation under God's protection when the North was supporting the South's institution of chattel slavery?
I suppose when there were no more free Indians to rob, and when slavery and Jim Crow was outlawed this nation was no longer acting according to good Christian principles. Funny that I can't seem to find this in the Gospels anywhere. But maybe Lysimachus can clue me into a better translation.
