NORTH CAROLINA: Christian Group To Celebrate Marriage Ban Anniversary
From the Christianist group Return America:
This Thursday, May 8, 2014, North Carolina will celebrate the second anniversary of the North Carolina Marriage Amendment. Sixty-one percent of North Carolinians went on record supporting the Marriage Amendment. Most importantly, sixty-one percent of North Carolinians went on record supporting Biblical Marriage.Jeremy Hooper points out that Thursday is also the second anniversary of President Obama's "evolution."
On Thursday, the homosexual community is planning a protest against this momentous anniversary event. They will appear before five different Register of Deeds offices in North Carolina asking for marriage licenses. They are also planning a group meeting demanding that North Carolina accept same-sex “marriages” from other states. In Raleigh, a same-sex couple will appear before the Wake County Register of Deeds Office to ask for a marriage license.
To celebrate the second anniversary of the North Carolina Marriage Amendment, Return America is joining with other like-minded groups on the South Lawn of our State Capitol Building for a celebration of our Marriage Amendment. The celebration will be held from 12:00 Noon until 1:00 PM. We are asking pastors from across North Carolina to join us and bring as many people as possible with you. This is a prime opportunity for us to take a Biblical stand on what we proclaim from behind our pulpits.
