California Voters Approve Gay-Marriage Ban

there is no longer any sacrifice for sins left. . ."

On this account I say to YOU, Every sort of sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but On this account I say to YOU, Every sort of sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the spirit will not be forgiven."

Would you consider my thoughts about the church duking you as if you were intellectually challenged and not not able to think on your own to also be blasphemy against the spirit?

Would you consider my thoughts about the church duking you as if you were intellectually challenged and not not able to think on your own to also be blasphemy against the spirit?

No.
First of all, you don't appear to have accurate knowledge.
Secondly, there are often collateral consequences of sin. For example, a thief may repent and be forgiven by God, yet not escape jail time.
Those who are swept along by the winds of this world may encounter other avoidable difficulties: due penalty for their error, so to speak.

I seem to agree with every thing you said but I do have to ask why do you think you have accurate knowledge?

What evidence do you have that being gay is a sin or should I say "immoral" or a "bad thing"?

It's homosexual behavior that is a sin.

If there was no general sense of homosexuality being a sin or immoral or a bad thing there would be no point in discussing the matter.

Balding has close family links to horse racing: her father, Ian Balding, trained Mill Reef, 1971 winner of the Epsom Derby, Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe and King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes; and her younger brother, Andrew Balding, trained Casual Look, the winner of the 2003 Epsom Oaks. The latter win led to a very emotional post-race interview with her brother. Her uncle Toby Balding has trained winners in The Grand National, Cheltenham Gold Cup and Champion Hurdle. Furthermore, her grandfather was the trainer Peter Hastings-Bass and her maternal uncle the 17th Earl of Huntingdon was once trainer to Queen Elizabeth II. Her maternal grandmother, Priscilla Hastings, is descended from the Earls of Derby and was one of the first women elected to membership of the Jockey Club.

She formalised her relationship with the BBC Radio 4 continuity announcer and newsreader Alice Arnold in September 2006 by entering into a civil partnership. The couple live in Chiswick, London.

She became a trainee with BBC National Radio in 1994, working on 5 Live, Radio 1 (presenting the sport on the Chris Evans Breakfast Show), Radio 2 and Radio 4. In June 1995, she made her debut as a television presenter, introducing highlights of Royal Ascot. The following year she began presenting live, and in December 1997 she became the BBC's lead horse racing presenter after the retirement of Julian Wilson, and has fronted coverage of the Grand National.

Balding has reported from five Olympic Games, for BBC Radio in Atlanta and for BBC Television in Sydney, Athens, Beijing and London. She has presented two Paralympic Games, the Winter Olympics from Turin and Vancouver as well as the Commonwealth Games from Melbourne and Delhi. She is the face of the BBC's rugby league coverage, having presented Grandstand from a Rugby League Challenge Cup semi-final, and having been so impressed by the vibrancy and physical challenge of the sport she asked to cover further rugby league events.

She also presents the Lord Mayor's Show as well as other live events for the BBC, such as Trooping the Colour and New Year's Eve. In March 2010 she presented Channel Four's coverage of Crufts.

She also presents the walking programme Ramblings for BBC Radio 4 (where she also stands-in on the Saturday Live programme), and Wimbledon for 5 Live.

During the 2009 Grand National, Balding commented on winning jockey Liam Treadwell's teeth and suggested that he could "get them done" with his prize fund. The BBC received 1,477 complaints about the comment, leading to an apology from both the presenter and the BBC.

In 2010, Balding presented a BBC TV series that retraced some of Harold Briercliffe's British cycle tours. She joined Chris Evans as co-host of Channel 4's Famous and Fearless in January 2011. That show has since been cancelled because of poor ratings.

In August 2011 Balding joined BBC's Countryfile, temporarily replacing Julia Bradbury while she was on maternity leave, co-hosting the show with Matt Baker. Bradbury returned in February 2012.

From February to March 2012 she presented "Sport and the British" on BBC Radio 4, a thirty-part series looking at the impact of sports on British life.

Balding was a lead presenter on Channel 4's Paralympics TV coverage.

In August 2012 it was reported that Balding would be presenting Channel 4's racing coverage, while still retaining an option to work for the BBC on non-racing programmes such as rugby league.

In October 2012, she appeared before an All Party Parliamentary Group on Women's Sport, with Katherine Grainger, Hope Powell and Tanni Grey-Thompson. "Women having freedom to play sport leads directly to women having political freedom," said Balding.

She has served as one of the presenters on BBC Sports Personality of the Year.

She is the new regular presenter of 'Good Morning Sunday' on BBC Radio 2 taking over from Aled Jones.

Balding is the presenter of Britain's Brightest, which began in January 2013 - 'Ordinary people with extraordinary minds face a series of nail-biting challenges and demanding puzzles as they battle to become crowned as Britain's Brightest'.

In March 2013 she anchored Channel 4's coverage of the Cheltenham Festival.

Balding was appointed Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) in the 2013 Birthday Honours for services to broadcasting and journalism.
