I don't know about you, but it seems to me that increasingly, a significant portion of our society seems to be in a state of confusion. It's as though the culture is unraveling, spiraling out of control. I was watching television this evening and the guest essentially told the host that there are many truths, he had his truth on the matter, she has hers and there are other truths. That struck me because I believe that the root of all this confusion can be found with two things: the quest for an acceptable truth and the rejection of the real truth.
Welcome to Deborah's World. This blog is where I share things that I find interesting. And that includes lots of things like news, music, science, entertainment...and so much more. Sometimes my interest is piqued by things that I don't necessarily like, or even find annoying. But if it grabs my attention, I'll write about it. So welcome to my world. Have fun!

Gay Marriage is Law: My Two Major Concerns - Pt. 2
In part one of this post, I talked about religious liberty, and what impact the new gay marriage law might have on Christians (fundamentalist Christians) to openly express their faith. Here, I use the term fundamentalist as an all encompassing term to describe Christians of all denominations who believe that the bible is the inerrant Word of God. Non-fundamentalist Christians take a much broader approach to the faith and support issues such as gay marriage and abortion. The same distinctions can be found in Judaism, with Orthodox Jews holding firm to the traditions set forth in the Torah, and other Jewish denominations being more liberal.
Yes, I am concerned about the future of religious liberty for Christian fundamentalists, and indeed orthodox Jewish believers. Will they at some point be forced to remain silent on certain issues because of how they are informed by their faith? This is a concern, but not my greatest concern. My
