Rick Santorum: GOP Gay Marriage Support Would Lead To America's Destruction

Former Pennsylvania senator and 2012 GOP presidential candidate Rick Santorum has warned that Republican support for the legalization of gay marriage would lead to America's destruction.

Appearing at the Midwest Republican Leadership Conference last month, Santorum told attendees that the Supreme Court's recent decision striking down the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA), which led to federal recognition of the legal marriages of gay and lesbian couples, will eventually lead to Christian prosecutions.

“We have hate crimes in this country,” Santorum stated, “for hate speech. It's coming. This isn't about tolerance. We tolerate. Christians are the most tolerant people in the world. Tolerance is different than approval. We love everyone. We know everybody sins. We know we all fall short. And that's what we tolerate, because we know we all fall short. But to go and change the foundation and say that because we hold these views we are now the haters, and we are not going to be tolerated, changes every thing. And so for the Republican Party to even contemplate going along with this is the destruction of our republic.”

Maybe Rick, you could explain why all the states that have approved gay marriage have not *suffered* from the destruction that you speak of?

As for Christians being tolerant...since when?

Was it tolerant when one Christian minister suggested we be gathered up into camps and allowed too die, was it tolerant when another suggested beating the gay out of a child?

The list of atrocities committed against gays or wished upon them by *supposed* Christians is near endless...if your now feeling that tide turn against you, maybe all you really need do, is look in the mirror to figure out why.

There are lots of true Christian people out there, unfortunately, it's the monsters like you that stick out the most.

If the Christian community wants that image too change, then they need to take responsibility for your kind and denounce you all for what you really are...evil bastards hiding behind the name of Jesus.
