America used to be so great. Conservative Christians would stand hand in hand with their heterosexual partners, gazing upon beautiful rainbows, watched over by a loving God.

Then gays got the right to marry and now straight people are forced to stay single forever and can’t look at so much at a single rainbow even accidentally without turning gay. Or at least that’s how they sometimes make it sound.
Take Walker Wildmon, Assistant to the President of the American Family Association, who recently tweeted out his frustration with the “homosexual lobby” stealing marriage and rainbows, due to a lack of originality.
How about we take this to the next level?

Homosexual lobby can't come up with anything original. They steal the rainbow. Steal marriage. Both God created. pic.twitter.com/5jDTUBqmHC

If God made everything, doesn’t that make everyone guilty of stealing everything from Him? God made that land that golfers have stolen for their own purposes. Stop stealing land from God, golfers!

As far as originality goes, as Patheos points out, many biblical stories come from other religions or cultural traditions.
Of course, many of the the types of marriages the Bible approves of look a lot different than the one woman, one man argument modern day Christians like to make.

“Homosexual lobby can’t come up with anything original.”
– Yeah, right; because gays have never been known for being creative.
“They steal the rainbow. Steal marriage. Both God created.”
– So you are calling your god weak? Ineffective? A victim? So we now understand that you know that your insistence that your god is omnipotent is a lie.

We stole the conversation – with words and visibility.

I’d rather have our crazies than the crazies in that “other” religion.

This is the view from deep inside the closet.

Apparently the imaginary sky daddy approves of gays “stealing” marriage and rainbows. If Christianity were real and Jesus actually did come back, the “Christians” would crucify him again the moment he told them how much they have corrupted his teachings to justify their own personal hatred of others.

I am Christian. And I am gay. And God made me. So this activist, as well as Franklin Graham want me to go AGAINST God, and NOT be Gay (which isn’t possible anyway). And for ME – that would be un-natural.

I just tweeted to this dude admitting that I was the one who stole God’s rainbow. I told him I hid it under my shirt along with a pack of Double ‘A’ batteries and a Clark Bar. I hope he believes me.

I thought the rainbow was a sign from God after the great flood. That gay people should be loved like all others. It’s right there in the bible.

What idiots these guys are. They absolutely know nothing, obviously, about “The Wizard of Oz” and the song, “Over The Rainbow” and the phrase – “Do you know Dorothy?” All of these are related to the official beginning of the Gay Movement after the Stonewall Riots in 1969. And the rainbow flag was originally designed by a gentleman in Hawaii and it had 8 colors in it. Pink and Lavender were included in the original. They were removed when the gay movement began. We did not steal anything from God. The rainbow is a blessing from God as Nate said in his post meaning that everyone is made in God’s image and is a child of God and all are to be loved as God first loved us.

What do you expect from someone who believes in an imaginary character from a book. It’s like saying we stole walls from Humpty Dumpty.

Walker is a wildman who knoweth not what he sayeth, God created us all and we gays are a test to see if the straights treat us with love and inclusiveness. AFA should be renamed to Abnormal Falchion Arsenal. Boston had the Lavender Set gays on Beacon Hill back in the day and I was asked “Do you know Dorothy?” when I was in the Navy in 1959 which referred to “The Wizard of Oz” and “Somewhere Over The Rainbow” sung by Judy Garland. I have been “Over The Rainbow” with my lifetime partner of 54 years, married 12 years, and we are both retired and living the American Dream. The words America and Family in AFA are absolutely ridiculous as this association does not represent the majority of Americans.

Sometimes I wonder if publishing these ridiculous crazy Christian stories is good for the community to hear when they just piss us off and depress us.
