[The last straw for gezegde

 [The last straw for Thompson and other conservative Episcopalians was the vote August 5, 2003, affirming the consecration of V. Gene Robinson, a homosexual bishop who lives with a partner.] We saw this as a denial of the authority of scripture, rather than an anti-gay issue, ... This is the first time a general convention of the church took a vote that officially endorsed something we felt was overtly forbidden in scripture.

 [But a meeting with Bishop Robinson would exasperate conservative evangelicals and primates from the developing world who see the bishop as a satanic influence. His consecration in November 2003 was described by the conservative American Anglican Council as a] grievous day ... The devil has entered our church.

 The unanimous verdict of scripture is that practicing homosexuality is a sin, ... Love ... must not compromise the church's allegiance to scripture.

 We were committed at the time of the convention, and through the last debate, to put a free vote to the next Parliament on this issue, ... It will be a genuinely free vote when I am prime minister. I will not whip the cabinet; cabinet can vote as they want.
  Stephen Harper

 Most absurdly in the program, the Aidan Quinn character is portrayed as a courageous priest challenging a conservative church hierarchy. In real life, the Episcopal Diocese of Connecticut has a liberal bishop who is cracking down on dissenting conservative priests. The national Episcopal hierarchy is overwhelmingly liberal, and orthodox Episcopalians are increasingly looking to overseas Anglican primates for leadership and protection.

 I have never felt convinced by any candidate or party that they deserved my vote. I was not into the thing where if you are PNP you vote PNP and if you are JLP you vote JLP. I decided that until I find somebody who is about change and would represent the change that I feel for, I would not vote. But now I think that this lady has a vision and I will vote for her.

 If you want your taxes to go down, you have to vote for it. If you want a government that actually does something about crime, you have to vote for it. If you want to fix health care, you have to vote for it. If you want choice in child care, you have to vote for it. And the only way to get that is to vote for a new Conservative government.
  Stephen Harper

 Erasmus said he would like to hear the farmer singing snatches of scripture at his plough and the weaver humming phrases of scripture to the tune of his shuttle.

 I'm a registered Democrat and, like a lot of my species here in Connecticut, I don't know whom I'm going to vote for in August. If I had to vote tomorrow, I'd vote for Ned Lamont, but I'd leave the polling place shaking my head, wondering what the hell happened to Joe Lieberman.

 We are grateful for those who have shared their testimonies. As students, we have to look to see if in a year from now we have kept up our scripture reading. Hopefully the prophet's challenge helped us to establish or reemphasize a habit of daily scripture study.

 If you use scripture as science, you're not elevating scripture, you're profaning it.

 The premier defining issue of conservative Republicans in this state revolves around family value issues; they are anti-abortion and pro-family. If the vote were just about abortion or homosexuality, straight up, and everyone knew that was the issue at hand, it would pass with an overwhelming, veto-proof majority.
