From Signs and Wonders: GOP going soft on marriage? by Warren Cole Smith
Portman’s unintended cruelty – You may have heard that Republican Sen. Rob Portman of Ohio has changed his position on homosexual “marriage.” He now says he’s for it, adding that a major reason for his change of heart is his 21-year-old son Will is gay. I served for several years on the board of a ministry that helps men struggling with same-sex attractions. تكساس هولدم بوكر I discovered then that family members often accept their son’s unhealthy, self-destructive choice of homosexuality because it is easier than walking with a gender-confused boy on the tough road out of that lifestyle. Worse, they fool themselves into thinking that by enabling their boys they are showing, as Portman told CNN, “love, support.” But, as a Christian worldview teaches, encouraging someone to break God’s law is to engage in cruelty, not compassion. شرح بوكر God defines love. Hanging the word “love” on a counterfeit does not make it authentic.

Its territory and culture are so diverse that you can travel in Russia as often as possible — and every time you will discover this country anew.” I have been there four times and definitely found this to be true. While there is a lot of bad news from Russia with the adoption ban in place, the country itself is an incredible place to visit.
