After years of softening up by the walking hairpiece with teeth known as Sean Hannity, it was my turn to challenge Fox’s in-house liberal Alan Colmes on his nationally syndicated radio talk show.

A-freaking-mazing.
Love this.
A divorce destroyed my heterosexual marriage! Divorce of heterosexuals-only should be unConstitutional in USA!
Brilliant! Stop the “Pick & Choosers”!
“I’m not one of those pick and choose type of Christians”. That was just priceless.
I think that this is awesome. In addition to banning divorce I believe you should push the recriminalization of adultry. Okay, maybe one step at a time.
please tell me that this is poe’s law.
There is no Edgar Allen Poe’s Law. There is only Christ’s Law.
Just heard about this on the Colmes Show rebroadcast on Sunday. I wish you the best of luck.
I’ve been toying with a proposition of my own to address an equally serious issue. Perhaps you could give me some tips. I call it the “Protect Our Children from Cannibalism Initiative.” Here is the text from the initiative:
Whereas Cannibalism is a serious issue affecting the children of America, we, the people of California forbid the adoption of any child by any person who practices the eating of Human flesh, or who participates in cermonies that simulate the eating of Human flesh or drinking of Human blood while children are present.
I realize that restricting the right of adoption may seem harsh, but it’s hard to believe the Cannibal lobby could be strong enough to defeat this proposition.
Hold on there, Mr. Bunkport !! Now you are threatening traditional communion in the Catholic Church ! Is nothing sacred anymore ?
This is absolutely ridiculous. I realize that the entire concept of marriage is making a lifelong commitment to another person, however things change. For those people out there that fall out of love, they shouldn’t have to stay with the same person the rest of their lives. Marriage is emotional, and unfortunately for the supporters of this legislation emotions are not static so things change. I understand where people want to keep the institution of marriage sacred, but in BANNING divorce you aren’t keeping marriage traditional, you are rather just making it impossible for someone to get out of it.
Also people support this mainly based off of religious reasons. Remember separation of church and state exists, and that marriage is not only a religious right but a LEGAL one as well. When two people get married, they legally inherit things together. It would be entirely unconstitutional to pass.
Kelsey, do you really think that there is such thing as the separation of church and state? Really?
I can’t buy beer until noon on Sunday. Why is that? Why does the beer store have to pay taxes but the church doesn’t? Answer those 2 questions.
Why do you get a longer sentence for selling drugs if you do it within a certain distance of a church? I got an extra 3 years for that. Hell, I didn’t think the durn Mormons were a real church anyway but boy was I wrong. Go ahead, answer that question. Why did I have to do that extra time?
Separation of church and state is just a suggestion; a privilege, not a right. You know that if you have answered my questions honestly.
Best Wishes,
Billy Bob DuPree
this is going to far i would think a religous person would think up something like this it complicated and no bodys buisness but as usual this would be a simple minds idea
You betcha! Christ-lovers want to protect the sanctity of marriage by preventing other people from defiling it. Anything I can do as a conservative Christian man to prevent gays, women or non-Christians from destroying the God-given institution of marriage is stewardship of God.
Thanks John – that was so great – you speak for all of us – sounded like Colmes had a hard time wrapping his head around your faultless exegesis –
and one thing conservatives have over liberals is the willingness to use the word ’staunch’ with respect to themselves – sort of cross between starched, paunch, and stanch – a mind blowing image in itself.
Remember we all are part of big family and it should not break. Family is like a team where success depends in team work.
John is doing a great job to save American society and promote family values and traditional marriage that was enjoyed by Americans for a long time in past. Divorce is causing lot of emotional and psychological illness in people including young children which are our future.
We should consider relationship between husband and wife as of “SAME STRENGTH” as bound between parents and children like parents and children cannot divorce each other. Divorce should only be allowed if your spouse cheats you otherwise it is a sin.
John answered very well that if you are in abusive relationship then it should be reported to authorities. State and Church should provide counseling to people who are getting ready for marriage; this will help to minimize chances of divorce.
TALIBAN
American style
hilarious! thank you. down with shellfish!
The gays are coming for your marriages. AND WE’RE GOING TO EAT THEM!
The gays are coming to your houses in the night for your marriages. AND WE’RE GOING TO EAT THEM!
Every time I enter a Red Lobster I think to myself “Why am I in this Hell-hole?” Because it is literally a gateway to Hell. Feel free to contact me about picketing more Red Lobsters.
After all, when you cook shellfish, their shells turn red, the color of H-E-Double-Toothpicks!
Colmes is incredibly droll. What brilliance.
I like it when others sacrifice for MY ideals, also.
Keep up the good fight, John. God told me he speaks through Joe T. Plumber, and no one on this board has your back like he does (well, maybe Billy Bob, but God didn’t say anything about you during our conversation. You’re on the Right side though, bro!), so whatever he says goes double for me. Maybe even quadruple.
I love the add: Date and marry beautiful thai grils, click here!
Probably exactly as God wanted it.
If divorce is outlawed only outlaws will divorce! But seriously It would make people think before saying I do and also increase the adultery and homicide rates between married people. If you were married to who I was married to and had no recourse but murder I would have taken it.
Ha ha ha, lets all sigh a petition to ban shellfish! I love this!
People should be able to divorce. The one who wants to leave does so. No judges, no courts, no lawyers.
