they have everything to do with one another.

tons of sin is allowed by law made by government. no outrage.

many Christians sure have a lot stronger beliefs about homosexuality than they do about the multitude of sins that they're committing daily in their own lives.

I actually fall on both sides on this one. I don't believe a church should be forced to marry a homosexual couple, and i actually don't have a problem with someone not wanting to cater/make a cake for a homosexual wedding because of their religious beliefs. This being because the act of homosexuality and the wedding are related, and do in fact go against those folks religions. That being said, i have a major problem with someone not serving homosexuals in a restaurant or not allowing them in their store. We all sin, and if you don't want sinners in your place of business, then shut it down and go dig a bunker somewhere and crawl into it. Sexual orientation and religious beliefs have nothing to do with pumping gas or eating dinner, and the gas station owner who will not serve a homosexual but sells a daily twelve pack to a neighborhood drunk is a prime example of hypocrisy, not christianity. So to recap: if the behavior that is against your religion is directly related to the service that you're being asked to perform, then i don't have a problem with the refusal. if it's not related at all, then you're no better than business owners who made blacks eat behind the restaurant or drink from a separate water fountain.

these silly progressives have these poor kids confused thinking that they shouldn't be discriminated against because of their sexual orientation.

How many homosexuals have you talked to about this topic?

well, i've talked to many homosexuals who've told me that they were born that way. never had one tell me that they made a choice. but I'm sure the occasional propaganda piece about the one homosexual in a hundred who "went straight" is more accurate.

I would guess they were bisexual to begin with. I know I could not make the choice to be attracted to men. I'm not wired that way. that was never a choice for me.

How old were you when you decided to be straight?

Kennedale is ridiculously good

kickoff at 2:30.

Did anyone get to watch Jasper today? I'm curious how they played. I know the score shows it was a close game, but I've been in games where we won 1-0 and could've won 6-0, and I've won 1-0 games where we could've lost 6-0. Anybody get to watch it?

Jasper will face Kennedale, who thumped Kilgore 6-0 today.

well, they've got 4 games today. If they rented the stadium for $2000, they might be $3000 in the hole for the whole shebang before collecting the gate, and i don't know what kind of arrangement they have for splitting concession profit (if any). Also, is your rental price per day, or for the duration of the tournament?

i doubt much (if any) was lost. with employees, refs, and electricity for the scoreboard i doubt they spent much more than $500 or $600. doesn't take many fans to generate that kind of revenue.

Lets go bulldogs!

This isn't boys basketball or football. tough to fill the seats at 11:00 AM on a wednesday.

mine increased dramatically AFTER it came along. surely it was coincidental.

you're right, there are no easy games left. Our region is pretty weak, but Jasper did a great job with their pre-district schedule getting some tough opponents in, and HJ presented them their first decent challenge in quite awhile, so hopefully they will be ready.

Kilgore is 21-5-2, and Kennedale is 25-2 with a couple of losses to 6A schools that made pretty deep playoff runs.

Tough draw. Salado is 26-1 on the year, with their only loss coming in a shootout early on.

Congrats to both teams! Good luck, jasper!

Connally won 1-0.

Congrats!

Packing it in. Gotcha
