As has been pointed out (more than once), this means nothing other than "I do not support same sex marriage." Particularly since domestic partnerships are not the same as marriages nor do they carry the same legal rights and privilieges.

Why do you keep bringing biblical nonsense into this? What does this have to do with our laws? What does it have to do with the subject? Who never sins? Or re you saying consenting, committed loving couples are sinning, simply because they are homosexual?

This is exactly what I mean when I say there is not one single solitary reason whatsoever to oppose same sex marriage that does not stem from ignorance, bigotry, hate, fear, or some combination of those things.

As for me and, I suspect, many others here, it's not homosexuality itself that is a "life or death" issue as you put it above; it's equal rights, liberty, and end to bigotry and discrimination.

Wow. You seem truly unhinged. I have to ask seriously, were you drunk or something when you wrote that? Why are you asking about my personal sexual activities? Pretty creepy.

Depends on what part of the country you come from , people in Oklahoma don't talk about sex ' some people from California do ' ( you asked me about me personal sex life first and I told you ) I'm sorry if you are uncomfortable or feel ill at easy but life goes on.

Being drunk is a sin Griffis so why would you think that I was Drunk

As usual.

And what they always forget, is that 1) this country was founded based on the FREEDOM of religion. Not religion; and 2) not everybody in this country is a Christian which is why there ought to be a seperation of Church and State.

This is complete and utter BS. Why do you feel the need to resort to lying? Where did I ever ask about your sex life? I was asking if your bigotry ran so deep that you also used imaginary gods to condemn hetereosexuals who engage in sodomy. Had nothing to do with your personal sexual practices.

It is clear you not only have a significant reading/comprehension deficit, but I'm beginning to think (with good reason) that you have, at best, a very tenuous grasp on reality.

Not uncomfortable or ill at "easy" (sic) at all. I really have no trouble discusing the issue (obviously) and no real problem even disclosing personal info of that nature--it's just that (like your left-field references to an ancient religion) it isn't really germane to the discussion at hand.

Oh, so you are without sin? How nice for you. I guess that's why you feel so comfortable up on your high hill looking down and judging the rest of us.

I've lived a pretty sheltered life myself and have only heard about the things people do when they are out partying and the like... still the amount of social progress we've made in the last 50 years is amazing... you'd be dumb not to see it.

Gay marriage will ultimately become fine eventually. Who cares what other people do in their personal lives. It is not a 'sin' and you are not going to 'hell' for it, and anybody who thinks so is just filled with incorrect programming. No offense intended. Same thing goes for other 'pleasureful' activities such as casual sex, drug and/or alcohol use, etc.

If it's not hurting anybody else, what does it matter. This coming from someone who does not party, do drugs, or even drink. Live and let live. If someone gets in your face for not drinking, then you can kick theirs... And believe me, it does get tiring hearing people only talk about their partying, drinking and sexual conquests... to me it's pretty boring and one dimensional but to each their own.

go I'm going to hammer this one point home " California Gay Marriage is the same as California Gay Domestic Partnership.

Bye Bye this is it as far as our discussion " California Gay Marriage is basically the same as California
Gay Domestic Partnerships " and that has nothing whatsoever to do with me " being a Anti-Gay Bigit "

Definition of BIGOT
: a person who is obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his or her own opinions and prejudices; especially : one who regards or treats the members of a group (as a racial or ethnic group) with hatred and intolerance ( or a sexual orientation group )

I just don't understand why it matters to you if it's called Marriage. Are you going to go around calling the marriage police if a couple of nasty lesbians talk about their wedding day and call it a marriage? Will there have to be laws put in place to make sure no print shops print invitations that say marriage for the mean old gals who are just hell bent to ruin your marriage thang? I guess you think the reason they want to get married is to set you off.

If you're so concerned about the sanctity of marriage maybe you should be working on banning divorce. Nothing ruins traditional marriage worst than divorce.

Yes, that definition suits you very well indeed.

You oppose gay marriage. Clearly, obviously, inarguably a discriminatory, bigoted stance.
