When? When will God's people stand up for what is right? When will these so-called "Christians" speak up for what's right instead of trying to be liked and excepted by everyone?! When will you remember what God's Word says about love and marriage? When, when will you return to the very foundation upon which marriage and romance were built? When will you shout out against these new-age crusaders who violate God's law and defile it by saying that a man may marry a man and a woman may marry a woman? When will you remember that the very people you are trying to be excepted by will no longer matter when you're standing before your Maker? When? When? When?

The author's comments:
I wrote this poem after reading a poem on this site that was taking up for homosexuality. It made me angry, not because the homosexuals are speaking their minds, but because the Christians are NOT speaking theirs when they should be. Be inspired brothers and sisters in the Lord! Arise!
