There are lots of crazy things in the bible, but some people point to one thing or another just to back up their arguments. <br /><br />It's like the Constitution too. Yes, you have a right to bare arms, but those guys who wrote it probably wouldn't want you owning a machine gun that can mow down hundreds of people. <br /><br />I was just in Wisconsin and saw an add on TV for a gun store! They had a big ass assault rifle for $1,500.Dr. Kenneth Noisewaterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06293248808640989299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10399045.post-13898035249985896102012-05-14T18:32:51.973-06:002012-05-14T18:32:51.973-06:00I was always glad that my parents weren't able...I was always glad that my parents weren't able to stone me for being so rebellious as a teenager; that's in there too.Jonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09954583977412597460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10399045.post-64488605141204727692012-05-14T17:27:53.917-06:002012-05-14T17:27:53.917-06:00I think any two people that want to should be allo...I think any two people that want to should be allowed to partner up and have the same legal benefits. What the heck do I care who someone sleeps with? Many people don't take marriage very seriously and it would be nice if people who do got the chance to get married. I say marry whoever you want, love others, and treat others well.

There's a whole l...That response was brilliant. There's a whole lot of bad in the bible as well. That's what happens when you have fallible human beings writing anything.<br /><br />I'm still sort of on the fence about gay marriage. I struggle with it. On the surface, I'm for two consenting adults being committed for each other.<br /><br />I just don't buy the notion that it's the same as interracial marriage. When I delve deep into that argument, I think it's a fallacy to argue that.<br /><br />Having done scientific research on homosexuality (in college for a big paper), I know that it exists in the animal kingdom. And many scientists and doctors believe homosexuality is an inherited trait - "born that way."<br /><br />But at the same time, three of my friends that are gay were all sexually molested by men. So I can't help but also wonder if homosexuality can also be a "programmed behavior." Also, talk to anybody that has done time in jail. <br /><br />Totally straight guys have gay sex in jail, and then go back to being straight once they get out. Not a myth - it happens A LOT. <br /><br />So to me, in the end, I need to reconcile if a person is truly born homosexual or if it can be a psychological condition. I lean towards acceptance, however.Jay Noelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04757777693161610861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10399045.post-3606646564077309852012-05-12T17:47:00.359-06:002012-05-12T17:47:00.359-06:00I think putting people into groups because they ar...I think putting people into groups because they are different and then denying them rights is evil.<br /> <br />Personally, I can't stand Obama, but he got this one right.<br /><br />The whole thing of Biden saying it first, was on purpose, they let him "test the waters". The water was fine, so Obama got the all clear to be for gay marriage. <br /><br />If Biden would have gotten tons of ridicule, Obama would have come out against gay marriage or just left the issue alone. Biden apologizing to Obama was pure political theater.texlahomahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13251535716702501350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10399045.post-10191581022960450992012-05-12T17:26:27.002-06:002012-05-12T17:26:27.002-06:00Just came over from Valerie's page.

As an ageing female I am allowed an opinion and mine is the same as yours. Let them be happy. How in the world will two men or two women marrying affect anything or anybody?
