    Well for one thing....

    I will use my SIL as an example. If she were to end up in the hospital in a coma or in surgery or whatever... her partner would not be allowed to be with her unless a "real" family member was there to allow it. but since my SIL's parents live 9 hours away that isn't always possible for them to be right there right away. But becasue my SIL and her partner aren't married her partner could not be with her until another family member were able to get there. And while they have a child... her partner gets no say in anything that happens to my SIL just because they can't get married. To me that is horrible.

    At the very least grant them civil unions.




    R.I.P my dear Sweet Teddy. You will be missed forever. We love you.

    I don't have time right now for a detailed post but I have to say this......it sounds like you live a sheltered life, at least thinking you have no gay people around you.
    I can tell, without a doubt, that you don't really know any gay people too well do you? Because you seem to assume alot and choose not to become familiar with gays and become educated, I can put little or no faith in what you say at all.
    Your arrogance and lack of knowledge is astounding.

    As far as Americans respecting majority vote. Doesn't that imply that I have to go along with someone just because it's their opinion and not mine? Why bother to have a choice on the ballot?

    Please open your mind and heart to what people here are telling you. You speak of gays like some sort of monsters that decide to be weird. That's not even close to the truth. I can only beg you to become educated before you write any more hateful comments.

    You still haven't answered the question directly. What will you do if one of your children is gay and comes out to you? What will you do? Will you stop loving he/she when this happens?
    How would you feel if you or one of your relatives were in the position of the SIL sparks speaks about?

    I really can't believe the audacity of some of your remarks. Incorrect assumptions and general statements without backup. All the gays I know would give you every chance in the world if you needed one. Please do the same for them.

    So much for a short post..........your original post listed many uncalled for remarks. You basically invited rebuttal so please don't wonder where it's coming from.

    I agree that my post was the joke of the century. I just wanted to ruffle your feathers and make you feel what a lot of people here are feeling by reading your ridiculous posts.

    We probably should just agree to disagree here because it's getting uglier.

    That is exactly what you did when you mentioned wierd and gross things done behind closed doors.

    It amazes me how many people have missed one of the basic tenets of Christianity. Hate the sin, love the sinner.

    Whether you personally believe that it's a sin or not, there's no excuse for the hatred surrounding the issue.

    Thanks Liz. I agree with you. I think she has a good heart too. I hope she will have the chance in her life to meet a more diversified people. It's my wish that she will learn more and more every day.
