That's what I'm talking about. How many minds are you going to change with an attitude like that? Start with a position of respectful disagreement and you'll make a whole lot more difference than with the "here's where you can shove you beliefs" attitude.

Again, who gives a rat's ass if one or more religions think that it is immoral? This is not a theocracy...not yet anyhow...so the opinion of religions don't count. Not everyone thinks that it is immoral...so if marriage is to be kept constitutional, either everyone can marry their partner of choice (assuming it doesn't violate other laws that have nothing to do with religious beliefs like bestiality and pedophilia) or no one gets to get marries. It says that ALL shall be treated equally under the law. This is why religion does not and should not have a voice in government. There are too many religions to allow that and to keep it fair for all. So unless we adopt a state religion and become a theocracy, religion doesn't get to dictate and anyone pushing to do so is in violation of the constitution. So just because some think it is immoral or icky...tough shit. I have a few good suggestion on where they can shove their morality. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:326532 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
