if two guys want to get married ( which is a religious practice) that should be between them and their pastor, not me.
if a girl wants to have an abortion or take birth control pills, that should be between her and her physician, not me.
i don't think the government should be able to take 20% of my paycheck and make unwise investment decisions, nor should they be able to take my house so they can sell it to a developer who wants to build a strip mall and pay more money in taxes.
read the constitution, thats what i believe in, every person should have the right to do whatever they want as long as it does not interfere with anouther persons rights.

Re: Falwell's dead, Hallelujah!
marriage is a religious institution, BUT you have to go to the probate court TO GET A LICENSE for it to be LEGALLY RECOGNIZED...HOMOSEXUALITY has no place in religion, two queers(OR LESBIANS) shouldn't be able to walk up in a courtroom and get a legal license to marry...listen, just because something CAN be done, doesn't always mean that it should be done...And you talk about Jesus and Christianity as if it is such a BAD THING, you probaly think ALL Baptist preachers are like the Falwell guy and THEY'RE NOT...Not all Baptist churches are filled with hypocrites either...I don't know many christians who claim to be perfect or better than anyone else...believe me, I've been on both sides of tha fence, I've been through EXTREMELY HARD TIMES THROUGHOUT MY LIFE, I used to say if they're is a god then why would he let all this f@cked up ---- happen...NOWHERE in the bible does it say life will be easy if you have faith in the Lord, BUT it says you can ask forgiveness for your sins, and with the exception of suicide, you can be forgiven...I'll be honest, if my faith fails me(which it won't) then I'll die and just lay in the dirt... trying to live a DECENT life, by what the bible says in the meantime, isn't such a bad thing AND IS WORTH IT, in case we all don't just die and lie in the dirt...You however, can go on living your life faithless and turn your back on an ALLPOWERFUL BEING who sent his son here to die for alll of our SHITTYNESS(we are ALL, BY NATURE, SHITTY), and you will burn for eternity...you should think about it...there are ALOT OF THINGS IN LIFE THAT CAN'T BE EXPLAINED BY SCIENCE...you just have to have faith...IT ISN'T EASY, BUT IT IS WORTH IT....

Re: Falwell's dead, Hallelujah!
well thats fine and you have every right to feel that way.
the problem is when you force everyone to believe that way you go from free expression to the spanish inquisition.
you do not have the right to tell other people how to live their lives, no matter how good your intentions may be.
how does gay people getting married interfere with your life? and why are you so concerned with it?

Rawr, I thought you were in the bridge regarding monotheism and not on the opposite end? You seemed to have changed your views from the last time I remember you talking
