We are talking about law not religion. Do you support the right of same sex couples to enter into a legal marriage or do you want the government to enact/enforce laws that prohibit same sex couples from entering into legal marriages.

Not surprising though. It's the standard, liberal modus operandi.
So you believe it is ok to deny somebody equal rights because you hate their behavior.

Yeah, that makes it all better.

The definition used to be a man and a woman of the same race, but things change.

What say you about married heterosexuals that engage in sodomy?

I hope his conservative/libertarian beliefs will guide him to the conclusion that government has no interest in what happens in the bedrooms of consenting hetrosexuals.

Morals are what you make of them. I got over it a long time ago.

I have been called a great number of terrible things due to a moral decision I made many years ago: To accept an offer of employment with one of the largest oil companies in the world.

Yes, I admit it. I have worked for an oil company. And even today I draw a pension check that is about three times what most folks make in a year.

You may say, so what? It's a legal thing to do.

But to others, including some here, this is a terrible thing.

So, in the words of the great Charlie Daniels, 'If you don't like the way I'm living......'

Not to mention that marriage used to be about alliances and power but hey things change right?

Larry is apparently ruminating on this one.

Please point to anything I have written saying that I propose denying anyone their rights.

Just like homo's, hetero's are free to do whatever they wish behind closed doors. This does not relate to the issue of marriage which is defined as a relationship between a man and a woman.

Google "marriage definition" and the first definition that pops up is "the formal union of a man and a woman, typically recognized by law, by which they become husband and wife."

Of course it is the standard modes operandi of liberals to rewrite definitions that don't serve their particular taste or support their POV.

I've never believed that the government has any business in ANYONE'S bedroom. That has nothing to do with marriage.

Because, of course, no important aspects of marriage occur in the bedroom.

Your words: I don't "hate" gays or anyone. I hate their nasty behavior.

So, if heterosexuals engage in "nasty behavior" . . .
