I don't understand why people even worry about this? I mean, why would you move because two women are raising a child together? How many woman have joined forces together to raise children before? How is this any different? Why is the fact that they want to be acknowledged as a couple any different than a male/female couple? sometimes i just want to kick people.

You go. Very good point. Im pro same sex marriage. I think the rest of the world should be too, because well, why should they care? its not them getting married.

dont kick people, it isnt worth your time. :)

exactly. which brings me to my other pet peeve, why is marriage a legal state anyways? it should just be contracts.

i am so unromantic. LOL

If you'd quit reading such filth and just watch fox news you would understand why it is so wrong. Don't you know that President Bush is against homosexual marriage? And if you don't believe what he does either the terrorists have already won or you are a terrorist.

There's a sick part of my mind that really wants to see a Seventh Heaven episode that deals with same-sex marriage.

oh my, that would rule. did you see the episode where that one girl got proposed to on valentines day? she made such a huge deal out of it being "her" day yet she obsesses about the most generic romantic holiday ever.

*gag*

My Seventh Heaven experience is limited to gagging about fifteen minutes into the episode and being forced to abandon my girlfriend on the couch.

I agree with you so much about this issue. In my town it was nothing to have "different" types of families. Christian radio is pretty much the strongest signal I can get in my building so I listen to it. It's so sad how people get brainwashed. I can see to a certain degree how if someone is "militant" about anything their views are going to effect the child. I don't think children should be denied good, loving, stable homes because their parents happen to be gay.

I've also spent a fair deal of time with gay men and women and whenever the men start bashing straight women I can totally see how if this particular couple adopted a child that child would definately have some issues. But hey most people have straight parents & they've all managed to screw us all up regardless.

my two best friends are a lesbian couple and they are talking about having a baby. they would be the best moms ever and i think that is what people should jugde being parents on rather than anything else. i do agree that some people will just mess up there kids no matter what their sexual ornitation is.
