I just wanted to make everyone aware that February 8-14th is "freedom to marry week". The sodomites plan on storming local county courthouses in a symbolic attempt to get marriage licenses. I'll be at my respective courthouse with some other brothers....we're going to do some preaching and holding of signs. I'll try and display some video when we're done. If you all can....get to your courthouses! www.freedomtomarry.org/

Try using some good old fashioned wisdom in dealing with these people and you might get someplace. Cal; them queers and sodomites a la Jed Smock is not going to work. They will turn the tables on you,. Trust me. I have been there in the old lifestyle.
However, this depends on you objective.
If you want to just be seen and make a counter protest as it is the constitutional right for you just as it is their right to carry on a protest in favor of gay marriage, then fine, act like Phelps and Smock, but you won;t win any sinner over.
If you want to try to lead at least one of these people from a sinful lifestyle to the lord, try using wisdom and some different tactics besides just trying to outshout them.
He who wins souls is wise.

I don't see why this is such a big deal. Let them marry, you lose nothing.

I bet you were a big success. So how many did you lead to Jesus?

People must want to be saved from their sin and wish to repent before they can be saved. You can tell them about Jesus until you are blue in the face, but if they are too caught up to listen, what can you do.

I'm sorry, since when is being attracted to someone that isn't of the opposite gender a sin? Oh right, you guys are all scared of what they do in the privacy of their own bedrooms. Why the hell do you even care? Does the knowledge that some homosexual couple is having anal sex that bothering to you? Homosexuals don't ask Christians about their sexual history (that is, IF they have any aside from procreation) and it would be nice if Christians would leave homosexuals alone.
Of course, the biggest homophobes are really closet cases, like Ted Haggard. Better watch out, that hellfire preacher spewing hate might just be the very thing they are fighting.

Jesus sees what people do int he "privacy oft heir own homes" and God considers sin sin. While I am opposed to Jed Smock calling gays Queers and somehow thinking this will win them to Christ, their sin is still sin. Also, I do Not consider this to be a greater sin than any other sin. Sin separates people from God, period, There is onyl one mediator between God and man and that is Jesus Christ.
Haggard was a false Christian,. He doesn't count.

LOL false Christian. Those words cause wars all over the place. Why must you be so hell-bent on getting YOUR version of God out there?
Never mind that God created sin and then made Satan himself to tempt us (supposedly). It's like making a shiny red button and putting a marketer there to highlight said button. "PRESS IT! IT'S GOOD FOR YOU!". Yeah, I don't want to follow your God if they're going to simple throw us away into some abyss for not following his/her's/it's narrow-minded path to glory.
