You are right. It is only a matter of time before somebody is at least hurt, possibly even killed. Their actions are unacceptable.

You must have bumped your head or something. The story of Jesus throwing the money changers out of the temple is VASTLY different. First of all, since Jesus was Jewish, he had every right to throw the corruption out of HIS place of worship. Also, Jesus did not go there for the purpose of causing a ruckus.
Can the same be said of this "Bash Back" group? NO!!!! They showed up at that church for the very purpose of causing trouble. You're comparing two VERY different situations that have ZERO relevance to each other. Your comparison is just not applicable at all.
Terrorism means activities against persons, organizations or property of any nature committed by an individual or individuals acting on behalf of any foreign person or foreign interest:
1. that involve the following or preparation for the following:
a. use or threat of force or violence; or
b. commission or threat of a dangerous act; or
c. commission or threat of an act that interferes with or disrupts an
electronic communication, information, or mechanical system; and
2. when at least one of the following applies:
a. the effect is to intimidate or coerce a government or the civilian
population or any segment thereof, or to disrupt any segment of the
economy; or
b. it appears that the intent is to intimidate or coerce a government,
or further political, ideological, religious, social or economic
objectives or to express (or express opposition to) a philosophy
or ideology.

Where better to protest bigots than at the places they gather. Sure couldn't go to the mall or star bucks. I went back and looked at the picture and they seemed only had a few clubs and no guns. They were done up like the middle east rag heads but you would be too if religion owned the cops and judges. The article didn't say they were done up like that. Besides they were pentecost and the pentecost are just plain annoying.

EXCEPT that in Jesus' Day, the Temple was public.
This was a private church.
Moreover, Jesus was mad about what the priests were doing to God, not what they were doing to Him. Unselfishness!
I can't believe you're taking up for this!

Nope. You're still dead wrong. Two points to make.
1. Jesus had gone to the temple for reasons which had NOTHING to do with causing trouble. His encounter with the money changers was an added bonus.
2. The gay group had absolutely NO buisness being at that church other than to cause trouble. They went to the church FOR THE EXACT PURPOSE OF CAUSING TROUBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HELLO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME NOW??????????????????????

And why the hell would they want the country to marry them if the country marries on Christian terms?
Aren't they against the word of God?
Traditional marriage honors The Word of God, this completely contradicts what they're asking for.
