We've seen a lot insanity from the religious right over marriage equality lately, most notably with Rick Scarborough pledging to be shot and burned ('cause, you know, that's totally going to happen).
And NOM has joined in with this kind of unhinged craziness. They have posted a World Net Daily article by Jim Garlow that makes a rather interesting comparison:
While it is true that that “the ship may have sailed,” that ship will sink! It is the proverbial Titanic. (The problem is it will try to take so many of us down with it – even though we’ve been warning of the “iceberg” for some time!)Aww, this is going to be fun.And those who stand for truth – those with titanium scriptural backbones – will face entirely new challenges in defending biblical marriage.
Christian leaders will be divided into two categories: Neville Chamberlains, that is, the compromisers, and Winston Churchills, the courageous champions.
For those whose World War II history is slipping, Neville Chamberlain compromised and set up Hitler to kill tens of millions of people. Winston Churchill knew what had to be done against Hitler, and did it.
The Chamberlain cowardly “Christian leaders” will assert that “it’s all over. There’s nothing we can do. It has been decided.”
The Churchillian ABC (Authentically Biblically Christian) leaders will rise up and say, “never give up!”
Why will they do this? Because they are dinosauric and cannot get with the times? No!
Because they have figured out that there are some things worth continuing to fight for and, if necessary, die for. Yes, it will take a long time. But one-man-one-woman marriage is such a no-brainer, it will eventually win out.
