My Sister-in-Law Amy Rosenthal Marx commented on your photo (about the National
Day of Prayer).
Amy wrote, "So, did you participate in the National Day of Silence too?"
Why would I participate with a student led event that happens in some Schools
that is about some supposed bullying against some supposed LGBT students?
I am not a student, and I do not support anyone right to sexually sin in the
eyes of God. So I wonder why Amy asked the question of me when she knows I am
not a student and she knows I follow God and what issues He tells me to share in
love with others.
Here is some wikipedia information on what happens on "The National Day of
Silence":
"The Day of Silence is organized as a grassroots project by the GLSEN. Students
are encouraged to obtain permission from their school before organizing the
event."
"The Day of Silence has been held each year in April since 1996. The 2010 Day of
Silence was held on April 16; in 2011 it was on April 15."
"GLSEN states that hundreds of thousands of students at more than 8,000 schools
participated in the 2008 Day of Silence."
"The event takes place at college, high school, and middle school campuses. In
some cases there are elementary school participants. On the appointed day,
students maintain verbal silence either for the entire day or a portion of the
day, such as during the lunch break.
During their period of silence, participating students may hand out printed
cards explaining the nature of their protest. This may be supplemented by
additional texts or images.
Some school organizers also create or purchase pins or stickers to put on
lockers and t-shirts. Others dress in all black, with rainbow ribbons or gags to
emphasize the cause and their presence. Also if allowed, special announcements
during the day allow the event to be recognized by the school."
Homosexual actions is a sin, so should there be laws to make a sin legal?
If that sin is legalized, then will it be OK to make other sins legal?
As a Christian I realize that I should hate all sins, but love the sinner, and I
mostly do, but when any group of people in the United States tries to make any
sin legal, don't I also have the right to protest and try to make sure sin
doesn't become the law of the land?
Besides these verses of scripture; here is another place that has more
information about homosexuals and scripture: What Does the Bible REALLY Say

But before they lay down, the men of the city, even the men of Sodom, compassed
the house round, both old and young, all the people from every quarter: And they
called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men which came in to thee this
night? bring them out unto us, that we may know them. And Lot went out at the
door unto them, and shut the door after him, And said, I pray you, brethren, do
not so wickedly. Behold now, I have two daughters which have not known man; let
me, I pray you, bring them out unto you, and do ye to them as is good in your
eyes: only unto these men do nothing; for therefore came they under the shadow
of my roof. And they said, Stand back. And they said again, This one fellow came
in to sojourn, and he will needs be a judge: now will we deal worse with thee,
than with them. And they pressed sore upon the man, even Lot, and came near to
break the door. But the men put forth their hand, and pulled Lot into the house
to them, and shut to the door. And they smote the men that were at the door of
the house with blindness, both small and great: so that they wearied themselves
to find the door. (Genesis 19:4-11 KJV)
Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination. Neither
shalt thou lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith: neither shall any
woman stand before a beast to lie down thereto: it is confusion. Defile not ye
yourselves in any of these things: for in all these the nations are defiled
which I cast out before you: (Leviticus 18:22-24 KJV)
If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have
committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall
be upon them. (Leviticus 20:13 KJV)
There shall be no whore of the daughters of Israel, nor a sodomite of the sons
of Israel. (Deuteronomy 23:17 KJV)
Now as they were making their hearts merry, behold, the men of the city, certain
sons of Belial, beset the house round about, and beat at the door, and spake to
the master of the house, the old man, saying, Bring forth the man that came into
thine house, that we may know him. (Judges 19:22 KJV)
And there were also sodomites in the land: and they did according to all the
abominations of the nations which the LORD cast out before the children of
Israel. (1 Kings 14:24 KJV)
And Asa did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD, as did David his
father. And he took away the sodomites out of the land, and removed all the
idols that his fathers had made. (1 Kings 15:11-12 KJV)
And the remnant of the sodomites, which remained in the days of his father Asa,
he took out of the land. (1 Kings 22:46 KJV)
And he brake down the houses of the sodomites, that were by the house of the
LORD, where the women wove hangings for the grove. (2 Kings 23:7 KJV)
For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and
unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; Because that
which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.
For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen,
being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and
Godhead; so that they are without excuse: Because that, when they knew God, they
glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their
imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be
wise, they became fools, And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an
image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and
creeping things. Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the
lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: Who
changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more
than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. For this cause God gave them up
unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that
which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of
the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that
which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error
which was meet. And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge,
God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not
convenient; Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness,
covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity;
whisperers, Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of
evil things, disobedient to parents, Without understanding, covenantbreakers,
without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: Who knowing the judgment of
God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the
same, but have pleasure in them that do them. (Romans 1:18-32 KJV)
Nay, ye do wrong, and defraud, and that your brethren. Know ye not that the
unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither
fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of
themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers,
nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you:
but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of
the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God. (1 Corinthians 6:8-11 KJV)
This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the
flesh. For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the
flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the
things that ye would. But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.
Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication,
uncleanness, lasciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations,
wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings,
and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time
past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
(Galatians 5:16-21 KJV)
But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named
among you, as becometh saints; Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor
jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks. For this ye
know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an
idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. (Ephesians
5:3-5 KJV)
But we know that the law is good, if a man use it lawfully; Knowing this, that
the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient,
for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of
fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, For whoremongers, for them
that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured
persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine;
According to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which was committed to my
trust. (1 Timothy 1:8-11 KJV)
For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to
this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into
lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ. I will
therefore put you in remembrance, though ye once knew this, how that the Lord,
having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed them that
believed not. And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their
own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the
judgment of the great day. Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them
in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange
flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.
Likewise also these filthy dreamers defile the flesh, despise dominion, and
speak evil of dignities. (Jude 1:4-8 KJV)
Don't you know that unrighteous people will have no share in the Kingdom of God?
