It will, however, eventually be accepted by a majority. And by majority, I mean over 50%.
Exactly. At one time a majority believed slavery was ok. And even when it was made illegal it most likely did not have a majority support. And people used the Bible to defend slavery then too.

So what does that say about who is the more tolerant group?
1st of all prove your assertion. What rights are not granted to Christians? None. What rights are not granted to homosexuals? Marriage.

Yep. If they get voted out for making stupid comments that is their own fault.

God, you kids today really are about as bright as grapefruits.
Maybe those franchise owners will speak up to their executives and change will come about.

It's a demonstration. Seeing Americans do anything other than post on facebook or post in message boards (ahem) is encouraging.

That is one of the key teachings of Satanism. I took a class on Magic, Witchcraft and Religon. Satanists believe they are their own gods, that they define their own morals and it is not subject to anyone but their own ability to exert dominance over another.

It is interesting to see how closely society tends to mimic that attitude these days. Relativistic belief that establishes right and wrong based on the might of the public's opinon.

Did he say that? No.

So now liberals are reduced to simply making up stuff out of thin air and telling lies, to try to smear conservatives?

It was inevitable, I guess.

Sorry, not going to chase that herring as it is pointless and it isn't my main point.

If Civil Unions are not up to par, make them. Like I said, a lot less people would object to a legal equality.

If it is acceptance? Not going to happen. Ever.
