Will Christians be protected from Gay social goals?

[Mere_Christian]

Once gay marriage is legalized in most states and forced on those that will not legalize it by the power of Democrat majority in Congress, how will Christians be protected from Gay Activists desiring to force Gay Culture and gay sex on every aspect of Christian life?

I would contend here we must balance the rights and wishes of the majority with the rights and wishes of the minority.

You are the minority. The majority of Americans support school prayer.

I don't doubt that. I stand by my original, unedited comments:

From Page 23 Post 229:

1 a: the act or process of petitioning for help or support ; specifically often capitalized : a prayer of entreaty (as at the beginning of a service of worship) b: a calling upon for authority or justification2: a formula for conjuring : incantation3: an act of legal or moral implementation : enforcement

As invocation relates to prayer, one is fully within their rights to pray "on their own time", and need not force a prayer onto those who reject such.

I would contend here we must balance the rights and wishes of the majority with the rights and wishes of the minority. As there is nothing that can prevent one from praying silently in their own way, then I contend it is less oppressive to have officials refrain from making pronouncements on behalf of folks who disagree with such pronouncements.
"Pray all ya want, but not in my name."

History is rife with examples of the majority imposing its will on the minority. I see no reason to continue the practice, especially as it relates to ancient, unprovable tales and rituals.

As all this relates to the OP, I personally fear the "Christian agenda" far more than the "homosexual agenda".

Apparently you support the minority imposing its will on the majority.

Nope. Just for making sure theocracy is held at bay.

Curb the hyperbole. Calling schoolkids doing what Congress does a theocracy is like me calling your position the atheistic Communist one.

I can see that angle too. I "preach" a middle ground approach where policies are least imposing, and least restrictive.

As before, folks are allowed to pray whenever and wherever they are, so requiring a prayer becomes somewhat redundant.
