No, I said President Bush said we should have 'famliy values'. And did you not catch the '
' in my post? I was being sarcastic.

You preach about beliefs and how they are such a stronghold to who you are and your opinions, but you refuse to accept that other's beliefs outside your own.

Mmmmm, no. I think you are reading far too deep into what I've been posting. Way back in this thread, I stated that I really have no problem with gay people on a day to day basis. I mean, being gay is not going to impact the price of gas, which is a big issue in my life now.
If someone holds religious beliefs or practices different from mine, fine. I feel that they have every right to do so.

This sounds like a violation of the Church of Christ's beliefs...

Not really. What we beleive is that everyone is free to believe as they choose, but along life's way one should find his / her way to Jesus and his teachings.

anyhow, you keep on believing what you want, and I will believe my own beliefs, and this will make us TRULY American because we are all allowed our own beliefs, and you go vote, and I will go vote, and we will just cancel each other out, ok?

I will. I think I've said this myself several times. We are at an impasse.
All I've been trying to do is to state the counter-point to the 'pro-gay' marriage stance.
Afterall, for some people, it just really boils down to that fact that God made Adam and Eve and not Adam and Steve. These people don't care about civil unions, whether or not this debate should be in the courts, in the legislature, or whether each state should decide. The decision on gay marriage is just that simple for them.
