What REALLY kills me how those of us who speak an opposing opinion to this issue are labeled "serious" or are accused to having a vendetta - but if this topic was anything else (like pledging), then we would be called "passionate". *lol*
Just wanted to note that Dionysus specifically expressed personal feelings against polygamy but did not suggest that it should be right to legally condemn it. I have the same feelings. Even if I think something is wrong for me and my morals, I would probably still approve of it for others. For example, I am pro-choice but I am anti-abortion. I will always defend a person's right to make a personal decision but I certainly will not condone the action by committing it myself. I have had two opportunities to have an abortion but chose not to, because I was irresponsible, not the children. I, personally, do not ACCEPT homosexuality morally, but I will fight against those who try to deny homosexuals their freedom to choose their own partners!!

Theta Nu Xi Mission Statement:

To promote leadership, multiculturalism and self-improvement through academic excellence, involvement in and service to the campus and community as well as being living examples of sisterhood across different races, cultures, religions, backgrounds and lifestyles.

I will uphold this mission statement regardless of the self-serving and self-righteous attitudes of the majority of the people in the U.S.
