This gay marraige thing

Well it looks like Massachusetts is a couple of monthes away from legalizing same-sex marraiges.

I write this as I have spent the past few months oscillating back and forth between annoyance and acceptance of this union issue.

The issue made some more sense last week when I viewed the comedic effort Dennis Miller. Man has that dude fallen into the right !

I never was fond of his efforts prior to this new act and had remained sceptical until he made a comment that went something like this:

I don't have any problem with same sex marraige. What I would have a problem with would be a couple performing a same sex union and a person enters the scene wired with explosive trying to take out the ceremony and nobody had a way to KILL this nutcase before it occurred.

made me kind of understand where the importance in protecting rights should be.

Goose I agree. It's OK for the liberals to censor what many of us believe in while we have to "be tolerant" of things we find totally offensive

My father has a part-time job as the church grounds-keeper, I just got back from removing signs that were taped all along the street poles surrounding the church, and only the church.

Gay Marriage = Love
Churches view = Ignorance

The church teaches to hate
Gay marriages will teach how to love

...I laughed about it, but he was pissed. I am 300% against it, but like Goose said....and the way I look at it, they're planning their own destiny. - ....just my opinion, to all you ummm....extra happy people out there.



....although that last flyer still has me laughing, you'd think they'd word it differently.

...it finally happened, there are no more secret spots

Hehe. Wow Bloo. I can see how this issue would steam a religious person, particularly a senior.

Doesn't look like there is much we can do about it. This is Massachusetts

I'm all for it. Who are we as a society to control how people choose to run thier lives. I've got a few gay freinds, both male and female... If they felt like they wanted to comit themselves to a life of partnership whats the problem??

how is two people who love each other and express their love by having a ceremony going to effect your life??
gimme a break.

If everyone on this planet accepted everyone elses beliefs there would be no wars, no killing, etc.

And to continue my soapbox rant.... I'd like someone to name a war that wasn't about religion, or wasn't fought by 2 opposing religious countries.
