Oh, that's too bad. If the wedding would have happened, I was excited for my 18 month old and 4.5 year old to also learn about pre-marital sex and pregnancy from puppets. You know, when Elmo knocked up Abby.
Since both topics would have been completely appropriate for preschool television.
/sarcasm
So, is it appropriate for the "straight" puppets to have relationships on-screen? What about Miss Piggy and her insatiable lust for Kermit? I don't hear people crying over that, and it's probably more explicit than Bert & Ernie's wedding would have been... guess it's only "inappropriate" depending on the puppet's nonexistent genitals. Gawd, what a strange debate this is.
Suddenly it all become clear... the irrational love of imaginary mammoths, the cookie addiction, my strange need to count objects in a room upon entry, those Tuesday nights when I climb naked into my garbage bin at 3:00 AM just to feel the warm, wet refuse against my skin, and now the secret homosexual feelings for my roommates... Sesame Street is to blame!! Who do I sue?
LMAO... I blame them for my weight problem and OCD too!! Those puppets are evil, I tell ya.
I'm a Jew too, and you must have missed the teachings about tolerance and kindness... but perhaps you're Orthodox or Hasidic, which would explain your views a little better. I'm Reform, and we wholeheartedly support the fight for equality - I've even had a lesbian Rabbi, for goodness sakes!

calling gays a minority is insult to all true minorities in this country.
Oh, but it's okay to marginalize them for the sake of YOUR arguments, and say "the minority shouldn't dictate what the majority should/can do." You know how many times I've heard that on here? So make up your minds already!

then let me give you a authentic Jewish teaching (which describes modern day Reform-Judaism in a nut shell)
he who's merciful to evil people (that is Judaism definition of of one who practices the said behavior) will eventuality be unmerciful to the righteous

do you consider people who want to legalize Polygamy and Polyandry a minority?
should we make special laws for those that want practice these behaviors?

Fail spelling.
Well, in Leviticus it says that you aren't supposed to shave, curse, gossip, wear blended shirts, even talk to women when they are on their period. I'm sure that you do all of those.
You also fail because polyandry is polygamy, it just means to have multiple male spouses. Polygamy, on the other hand, just means multiple spouses.
What does plural marriages have to do with gay marriage?

Hint: You can't win this.
Wha..what?!! We're gonna do polygamy again? Sweet.
Well, at least Bert & Ernie won't be "Living in Sin", anymore!
But what I really want to see is Big Bird getting hitched to Elmo. Would that be considered Interracial Marriage? Bestiality? Straight-Purple-Thing/Tranny-Bird Love? (I figure Big Bird is one of those Transexuals).

Quote:
shave
it means with a razor (I'm assuming you don't know hebrew so I cant give you the limud) by the way as a chumra I never shaved even in a kosher way
Quote:
curse
show me the verse in question (I'm not sure which verse your referring too so I'll tell you where you went wrong and in addition curses means something else in hebrew then it does in english)
Quote:
gossip
a few points
1. gossip and rachil are not synonymous (gossip would include rachil but rachil would not include all forms of gossip )
Quote:
wear blended shirts
no such verse it says tzemer and pishtiem
Quote:
even talk to women when they are on their period
once again your wrong there is nothing even close to this in there (I'm not sure if your referring to laws of tumah and tahrah or the lav)
if you don't understand what I'm talking about I suggest you don't bring up the bible with me

sorry I meant to type polygyny as you correctly noted (you have to get something right) I am a losey speller and when I misspelled it the spelling I clicked the spell check which I then hit the wrong button.

there is a minority that wants to make it legal that doesn't give them a minority status and to give them or men who have sexual relations with other men such a status is a affront to people who have suffered real persecution.
