first, i will apologize for the religious nutjob comment.  most religious people i know are fine people i am proud to call friend.  some do pervert the religion for their own means but by no means the majority.

2nd, christianity is a relgion of tolerance and christians should remember third

3rd, you can make fun of gays all you want, but don't try to take away their human rights

Why do you blame liberals for Americas decline? Liberals make up less then 20% of this country. Conservatives make up over 40%. We’re nearing the end of a two term presidency who is a conservative who has had a favorable congress to work with for 6 years and a balanced one for 2. He enjoyed some of the highest favorability ratings this country has every seen and was wielding more political capital then any president since FDR. What did he do with it?     Why would you blame the liberals when your own conservative brethren have had so much more power for so long? Did it ever occur to you that maybe rather then blaming people have an admitted difference of opinion with you and who openly pursue changes you do not agree with.  You might want to blame the people whom supposedly agree with you, whom make up a large number and wield more for their complete inability to actually implement the things they supposedly stand for. They do not limit spending and they do not cut social programs when they have had the clear ability to do so.   Explain that to me please.   Anyone.
You're right.  George W. & Co. really haven't represented/implemented conservative values very well at all.   That's hardly an endorsement for liberalism, though. 

Here's my two cents:  Liberalism is dangerous.  It preaches tolerance, but has some serious venom for those who don't practice it the liberal way (i.e. "religious nutjob" makes for a great protest sign, "homosexual nutjob" can get you a set of walking papers from your radio show).  It has appointed itself the sole definer of "progressiveness".  It has given us political correctness (and for the liberals, I don't mean that as a compliment).  Worst of all, it has really just become, in this country anyway, another word for Socialism...which, of course, is not at all progressive.  So what if it didn't work the first thousand times, let's give it another shot.  Ugh.

let me go through the most popular close minded oppositions to gay marriage

A) it's disgusting seeing 2 men, yadda yadda...you and your fat wife disgust me but I have to deal with it

B) god said that's wrong...god also says don't have sex before you're married and don't get drunk, etc, etc...so shut up dbags

C) it's just not right...says who ???  i've read through these 3 previous pages and have yet to see ONE valid argument against...the NFL board has this same topic up for debate...a lot more thoughtfulness going on there tho...

I have never really figured out what the big deal is.  If two concenting adults want to get married, let them.  What buisness is it of mine if it's two men or two women.  The biggest  reason it's illegal to marry sibling is because it's been proven that inbreeding leads to all sorts of genenic problem, so don't go there as the next "logical step".  Sometimes the courts need to step in and do what's right even if the majority of the people don't want it,  examples integrate the schools, allow interracial marriages to name 2. 

Just think of it this way, if a gay couple were living together for 10 years and one of them got into an accident and is in intesive care, shouldn't  his/her partner be allowed to see them.  In most cases if you are in intesive care only family is allowed in, and if a decision had to be made about pulling the plug shouldn't they be included.  But if you don't allow them to marry then they are left out of these decisions.  To me that is the biggest reason to let them marry, but I could be in the minority on this.

While I am steadfastly opposed to homosexuality, people have free will, they can be involved in the relationships if the individuals involved approve.  Now as for marriage, someone show me where anyone has the right to marry.  Marriage is between one man and one woman as defined by the law.  Activist judges are trying to rewrite the law with marriage as a right, it is not in the bill of rights.

Yea let them have their Civil Union, Domestic Partnership, whatever the heck you want to label it buuuuuuuuuuuuut Marriage always has been between a man and a woman, besides in MASS but dont get me going on that one.70% of VOTERS, not 4 agenda setting anus loving judges, voted AGAINST this. Dont get worry the voters will amend this in November.
