I am glad that someone gets how ridiculous it is to assume that same sex marriage will lead to the falling of society.

What you see as "a moral decline," others see as a societal advancement and an improvement in equal rights for all humanity.

Personally, I try very hard not to allow what I see on TV become my view of reality. TV is simply for entertainment.

If you see this "moral decline" on TV every day, it must make you very depressed. Maybe you should turn the TV off and go take a walk.

If we would spend half the time speaking of the love,grace and mercy of God as we do in what we think is sinful,how Christianity would be viewed upon differently.

Maybe it is because those speaking of what they think is sinful every chance they get, actually do not know in reality anything of the love,grace and mercy of God.
