Me and JamesfrmPhilly agree on something!! I jump for joy all by myself.
I love to find common ground.
Anywho..
Civil rights are (according to Webster): the nonpolitical rights of a citizen ; especially : the rights of personal liberty guaranteed to United States citizens by the 13th and 14th amendments to the Constitution and by acts of Congress.
So, What's the big deal?? We've had dysfunctional marriages going on since forever, and men still want to 'hit' women and women still want to get some from their men. Do people think that if gays get a go at it that something will really change?? They've been doing it and some of you have been doing it with them. ( smile) Anyone remember when a black person couldn't marry a white person. Sounds silly right? Because it's about love. Some people do not have the same experiences with love and sex as some of us "Str8" people. Matter of fact, I dont even want to be grouped in the same category as some of the "St8" people here. Sounds like bigotry to me. And how is the black church going to YELL out against the proposition when a large majority of the men going to church is gay. The have rights in the church (to pay tithes) but no rights outside the church. Sometimes folks, we just got to sit and listen to ourselves.. And for those who want to throw the bible in it.. Don't. We all sin, and if gays are being punished for that sin, then every time you slept with someone out of wedlock or cheated on your spouse, your marriage card should have been revoked.
