What is it that you're trying to decide: (1.) Whether you agree with gay marriage as a concept that fits into your morals, or (2.) Whether the government should enforce someone's arbitrary moral decisions? If you're making a principled decision about governance then your position is that a majority should be able "marginalize" a minority (or vice versa) through law. In other words, I should be able to pass a law to marginalize you based on some arbitrary quality of your biology, i.e., my hitchhiker's thumb example. So is your question the principles of good governance and how they apply to Gay Marriage, or is it whether you morally approve it? In my opinion, of course, those 2 are mutually exclusive. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;207172674;29440083;f Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:281101 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
