On Friday night at the Values Voter Summit, the annual gathering of bigots, uh, I mean conservatives, sponsored by America’s leading anti-gay hate group, Family Research Council, Kentucky County Clerk Kim Davis was awarded the group’s “Cost of Discipleship Award”. (You remember the FRC, Josh Duggar was an Executive Director there.) Davis was introduced by her attorney Mat Staver and FRC head Tony Perkins. Staver said:
“These are times in history that are unlike anything that we had before. God birthed Kim Davis, and Joe Davis, and each one of you for this moment in American and world history … [God is] looking for people who love Jesus Christ and who will stand for Him, who will not flinch when their time is called and that person is Kim Davis and Joe Davis. May God raise up more.”
Davis said:
“I feel so very undeserving. I want to start by thanking my lord and my savior Jesus Christ because without him none of this would have ever been possible, for he is my strength that carries me and it is his mercies that follow me every day and it is his love that endures all things. I have realized through all the trials in our lives that if we wait upon the lord he’ll show up just in the right time. His timing is always perfect. I have discovered through all of this that his grace I truly sufficient in all things. I am only one, but WE ARE MANY!”
As long as it’s in the name of God, you can do or say anything in this country, including break the law and then give awards for it. If you think this kind of news shouldn’t be reported anymore, this is just to say, the woman is NOT going away. As much as she’s a villain to the LGBT community, she’s a hero to many. (via Towleroad)
