QUOTE Mary Lou Narbus, a 51-year-old mother of three from Rockwood, Maine, told ABC News she's pleased Question 1 prevailed in rejecting same-sex marriage. "I believe that marriage is for a man and a woman... and I don't believe that [gay marriage] should be taught in school, period," she said. Gay-marriage opponents had stressed the idea, disputed by supporters, that public schools would begin teaching children about unions between same-sex couples if the law were allowed to stand. Link I didn't know you could catch the gay from hearing that same-sex relationships do, in fact, exist. Because that's what's being implied: that if kids hear about same-sex couples as they do straight ones, they'll turn out gay. It's like learning that some people bleach their hair will turn you into a blond. Doesn't make much sense, and is actually a very low fear-mongering tactic by the religious right. Appealing to people's fears (especially with kids involved) apparently is very effective. If and when I become galactic overlord, I shall remember this stratagem in subjugating worlds, building massive battleships, and practicing general acts of infamy..... ......and I'll make gay marriage legal! Bwahahahaha! |

The more we push for equality, especially regarding sin, the more just and righteous God's damnation of the unrighteous becomes. We are only bringing it upon ourselves.

The more we push for equality, especially regarding sin, the more just and righteous God's damnation of the unrighteous becomes. We are only bringing it upon ourselves. It's for God to pass judgment, not us. We do not have that power. And as far as I am concerned, Jesus loved everyone, and so do I. Equality is what America is supposed to be about. |
