No, there is one God. God over all. We’re not talking about rocks and sticks shaped to look like something. We are talking about the God that manifested into flesh, walked the earth, was believed on in the world and then taken up into glory. We commonly refer to Him as Jesus. There are no others.
Hi Shonte-
“Religious freedom” means religious freedom for all. You seem to indicate that it means religious freedom for all as long as they are christians.
Wow , ok — I’m a 45 yr old male. Married 29 years and raised 2 boys. I was raised Catholic and I raised my children the same. Let me be the first to say that NEVER have I been so ashamed of some of my fellow Christians as I am today. These comments are awful. They are judgemental , elitist and full of sarcasm.
We as a people are supposed to unite. We are supposed to love the sinner not the sin. We are supposed to live our lives the way Jesus intended. Who Cares if another human being is marrying someone of the same sex? Yes , it may go against our religious beliefs , irk us internally but when it really comes down to it – it does not affect us at all. If you don’t like sushi don’t eat it. – very simple.
And on this **** would be the end of the human race nonsense. All based on the ability to have children……such foolishness , and coming from educated fellow Americans. In case none of you noticed WE as a human race have done a bang up job at securing the future for our generations to come. We have overpopulated and undernourished our precious planet to the point that extinction is eventually inevitable. Our children and society in general has become hypnotized by handheld devices , gone are the days of genuine human interaction. Homosexuality had/has nothing to do with our demise as a people. We as the HUMAN race have this incessant need to control , dominate and destroy everything – including one another. It’s sad but true —- we will eventually be doomed and have absolutely nobody to thank for it but ourselves. Perhaps then , we can all become United — yeah probably , right before it all ends………Think about it
If yiou believe so much in an individual’s right to exercise their own beliefs . . . why do you feel you have a right to infringe on the behavior and beliefs of a gay couple?
already have my own issues with Denton County Judges in the family courts. It seems like the majority of the Judges in Denton County like to push their own agendas instead of doing what is best for the people. Shame on her and shame on Denton County.
Okay, so people are saying Marriage is Christian…Dude..you look it up Christianity came after Jesus Jewish is not Christian..Geeze if you’re going to argue something..educate yourself first…Marriage was not a Christian institution…I mean come on REALLY…guess what it isn’t yours…
HOW DOES PEOPLE GETTING GAY MARRIED AFFECT ANYONE’S RELIGION?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! This will never make sense, anyone against the right of these couples to get married is just using their religion as a cover for their own bigotry. No matter what your rleigion is, who someone else gets marrired to and goes to bed with every night has absolutely no effect of weather or not you makeit in to heaven. This ***** needs to do her job and realize we have seperation of church and state for a reason, and this should be grounds for loosing your job.
it effects their religion because they’re not in control… of everything; it’s against their dominionist beliefs. you know, like the Taliban, DAESH, etc.
What hateful behavior from these politicians! The same mentality that said 150 years ago “slavery is God’s plan” — and 100 years ago “women voting will destroy the family” — and 50 years ago “the races must be kept separate by God’s design.” Their hypocrisy is heresy: Jesus said we will be judged by the content of our hearts. Not our skin color, gender or sexual preference. These hate-filled power-grabbers don’t believe in God or America.
marriage is and can only be between one man and one woman.
until she displeases him, like being “uppity,” wanting to be on top or equal, then it’s between one man and the woman who magically is there after he wakes from passing out and a part of his anatomy is missing.

June 27, 2015Your “news report” is clearly an editorial. Your sarcasm is overflowing and your disregard of the opinions of others is obvious.

June 27, 2015no, /we/ don’t commonly refer to Them as Jesus. see, that’s the /actual/ thing about religious liberty, about freedom of/from Religion.

July 2, 2015marriage is and can only be between one man and one woman.
until she displeases him, like being “uppity,” wanting to be on top or equal, then it’s between one man and the woman who magically is there after he wakes from passing out and a part of his anatomy is missing.
just like in the Bible.
