I am not going to say much, as I do not want to influence your answers. I will say that it is a very important issue to me, and I am doing a school report on it.
Marriage isn't really a religious thing anymore though. You have to get a marriage licence through the state, and anybody of any religion can get married. Hell, two Atheists can be married anywhere they want by a judge. I know I said I didn't want to interfere, but I thought I'd bring this specific point up because it is too important to pass up.pantsoffdanceoff said:Im in California so this was a big deal a while back. Quite frankly... my political stance on most things is not-carrian.
But, they really shouldn't call it marriage as for a lot of picky people, that would degrade the separation of church in state. They should call it a homosexual union and give them all the rights that a married couple does.... no one would know.
I agree the marriage isn't a christian dominated term any longer. However a lot of people that I know (okay.. just my old uncles and grandpas who watch FOX)say that it would be the death of Jesus if gay people would be married by the choice. IF they just take out the word marriage then no one would get in a tizzy.SuperMse said:Snip
Not particularly. Though there are extremists in almost every point, you don't blame the entire group for their antics. Until people come bashing my door down asking me to paint rainbows on the walls, people can go fuck whoever they want.The Amazing Orgazmo said:Yet, we all know that that is likely to happend, like when the atheists tried to take the word god of the the "pledge of allegiance".Michael_McCloud said:So long as they don't rub it in my face and try to make me follow them, they can do what they want.
