When you have issues like this the thought of John McCain winning the election and possibly placing two more conservative justices on the supreme court makes me shudder. I still remember Thurgood Marshall trying to hold on until Regan was out of office. Unfortunately he didn't make it through Bush Sr and we traded a great man like him for Clarence Thomas. K

quote: ORIGINAL: kittinSol I always wonder the very same thing about this strange paradox. When it comes to gay marriage though, I think I have found the solution. Rabid conservatives don't like it because they feel that it somehow diminishes the value of their own wedding vows, since it allows 'sex deviants' from making the same choices as they, holy and godlike as they are, have made. And the liberal christians who are against gay marriage.....Why do they dislike it?

quote: ORIGINAL: handmaid Why else would it be, in your opinion (it's obvious you have one, although why you are so shy about sharing it, only you know). I think your right, it's probibly for pretty much the same reason. I just think it's funny, when christians are against something. That the majority of the posters call them "the religious right" or "rabid conservatives" It's almost as if they really believe that only the right wing christians feel this way. Maybe they don't realize that there are christians on both sides of the fence. Or maybe they are so wrapped up in putting down conservatives, they don't realize what they are doing. After all, according to Kitten, it doesn't matter if what your saying is true or not. As long as it stops that women from getting in.

Marriagewas alegal contract even back in the days of the celtic people. They would marry for "a year and a day" (ever heard that statement before) to see if it would work out. At the end of that period, it was the woman who decided whether to renew or not. They were also able to make it a lifelong contract after the first. Kind of kept husbands on their toes. As for the gay marriage issue, it is easier to cloud people's minds with something that shouldn't even be an issue than to face real issues. Two men getting married does not affect my marriage at all so I should have no say in the matter. To do so is to be a bigot. One man with two or three wives should be no issue if all are aware of the situation and agree to it. Denying that right for many of us is religious persecution. For a country that has "no state religion" we sure seem to bow down to only one acceptable religion and their views on marriage.

persephonee -> RE: Gay marriage (10/22/2008 9:49:15 AM)
i had a commitment ceremony with my partner after we were together for 4 yrs and we were together all told for 7 years. Our assets were merged within the first year of our relationship and legally we were bound in all sorts of ways that would have been simpler if the marriage had been legal. We had a child together and went thru the second parent adoption process and when we broke up...the only thing i felt obligated to do was take care of the adoption issues/custody issues. The rest sorted itself out privately amongst ourselves...if we had to have the legal system untangle us it would have been so much more expensive. i personally dont need to be legally recognised to be in a real relationship...but out of solidarity i support marriage rights and am as active in that cause as i can be...which isnt very at the moment. imho...Fl could easily ammend their constitution...and that just chips away at any progress that has been made. Eventually it will be worked out but i honestly dont see it within my lifetime...perhaps my son's.
