Here's my thought: why on earth are these people travelling all over the country to protest one thing or another? You guys have any idea how much that costs?? Say 15 people go from Kansas to Pittsburg. Driving, food, gas, hotel rooms for say 3 nights....somewhere in the neighborhood of 8000 dollars...do you know how many hungry kids that would feed? Or how much that would help a single mother who has bills piling up? Eight thousand dollars would pay for a lot of basic medical treatment. And they're using it for something as frivolous as protesting a non-issue (as far as I'm concerned). They really are doing to Christianity what extremists have done to Islam. And it's sad. God doesn't want for us to make believing hard or "weird". But so many people feel otherwise. I don't blame people for not participating in organized religion. Not a bit...
