Title: Obama Warns Christians: Gay Rights More Important Than Religious Freedom

As Pope Francis flew back to Rome, President Obama issued a stern warning to Christians, warning them their attempts to assert their religious liberty to oppose gay rights would fail.

“We affirm that we cherish our religious freedom and are profoundly respectful of religious traditions,” he insisted during a dramatic speech at a LGTB fundraiser in New York City on Sunday night, praising the progress made on gay rights under his administration. “But we also have to say clearly that our religious freedom doesn’t grant us the freedom to deny our fellow Americans their constitutional rights.”

The fundraiser for the Democratic National Committee was specifically billed as an “LGBT gala” held in New York City in coordination with Obama’s trip to the United Nations Assembly.

During his speech, Obama asserted that his administration was respecting what he described as “genuine concerns” of religious institutions but suggested that Republicans were using the issue just to earn more votes, as they did in 2004.

“America has left the leaders of the Republican Party behind,” he declared proudly.

He ridiculed Ben Carson for suggesting that “prison turns you gay” and added that another Republican candidate had boasted of his introduction of a constitutional amendment to ban same-sex marriage, likely referring to Sen. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX).

Alluding to Gov. Mike Huckabee, Obama mocked a candidate who said that “Americans should just disobey the Supreme Court’s ruling entirely.”

“I’m sure he loves the Constitution — except for Article III,” Obama said mockingly. “And maybe the Equal Protection Amendment. And 14th Amendment, generally.”

Debbie Wasserman Shultz was in attendance at the fundraiser, and Star Trek’s George Takei also was expected to attend.

Obama proudly told the audience that he would not back down in his efforts to make progress for the LGBT community, and called for all of them to remain vigilant to hold the line on important legal gains in the country.

“What makes America special is, is that though sometimes we zig and zag, eventually hope wins out,” he said. “But it only wins out because folks like you put your shoulder behind the wheel and push it in that direction.” (1 image)

That's not your call, Negro. When there's a conflict of constitutional rights, it's up to the U.S. Supreme Court to resolve it.

And forcing a specific baker, for example, to make a wedding cake for gays when there are dozens of others to choose from is not a policy that is "the least restrictive means for achieving that interest".

Change that to a hairless skinny white "Bottom Boy,and he might thank you. From what I have read that seemed to be Bathhouse Barry's preferences before leaving Chicago for DC.

I'm curious and want to know if an educated and intelligent man like Ben Carson actually said that going to prison turns you into a homosexual,or if Obomber is spinning his words for his personal political gain.

Ben Carson basically said that we know not every homosexual is 'born that way.' He gave prison homosexual relations as an example. Basically a man goes in 100% heterosexual in outlook and practice all his life, but then ends up in a prison 'relationship' with another man.

So Carson's point is not everyone claiming to be homosexual is 'born that way' and actually choose the lifestyle.

I believe they're born with the predisposition to be homosexual. It's their choice whether they act on it or not.

As to the "homosexual lifestyle" of multiple sex partners, anonymous unprotected sex, sexual objectification, drug-fueled orgies -- well, that's totally a choice. Their homosexuality doesn't force them to behave that way.

My understanding is that behavior, when it exists, ends when the individual is released. That it's more a sexual thing than a desire for a same-sex relationship.

Insisted falsely. They do not cherish religious freedom nor respect religious traditions.

I am not a shrink of sex therapist,but it seems to me those people are bi-sexual with a preference for heterosexual sexual relations if they can get them.

Being homosexual means you are sexually oreinted towards your own gender only.

Being heterosexual means you are sexually oriented towards the opposite gender only.

Being bi-sexual means you will happily hump anything human that moves.

Try explaining that to the United Negro College Fund.
