Judging from that article I'd have to say that the author, and
probably you, share some confusion about the difference between
values, religious beliefs and political beliefs. Sometimes reasonable
people with high values have to agree to disagree. More importantly,
it is inappropriate to try and impose your religious beliefs on others
and then accuse them of lacking "values".

Other than, possibly, the first one, there is nothing religious there. I
don't consider the first
one a religious position. 'Marriage' was an institution that had some
meaning. Now liberals,
especially, have made it a sham. And, I agree that 'it is 'it is
inappropriate to try and impose
your religious beliefs on others', and that includes atheists imposing
theirs. If you can't read
that and determine what 'values' are being discussed, then I can
understand your comments.

Religious beliefs are fine. Just do not force them on others, but
likewise, others should not infringe your religious freedoms. And marriage
has been different things through the years. Lots of the profits in the
bible had multiple wives. In the 1800's you could marry multiple spouses
in Texas, Alabama and another regions also. And not even have to be
Mormon. Texas about we're married if you announced it in front of 20
witness's or signed in to a hotel as Mr. And Mrs. No church or state
involved. It is supposed to be a free country. You want to marry same
sex? Go for it. Just do not require the rest of unto pay for your
lifestyle. Same goes for most drugs, do them, die if that happens, but do
not expect society to pay for your medical bills.


-----------------
dang Ipad and the spelling corrections.

You've referred several times to differences in the number of wives. Not a
lot of instances in the
bible of male prophets marrying other males, goats, or whatever. Ditto with
Texas, Alabama, and
other regions. I have a gay niece living with her girlfriend. They will
probably invite me to a
'wedding' soon. I won't attend because I think the 'ceremony' is a sham.


-----------------------------

It is supposed to be a free country. If you pay your taxes, do not force
your views on someone else, and the partners are not children and are in
agreement, then just let it be. Does not concern most of us, except maybe
in your views, but their views are allowable also.

I agree. They were both here for a 'Thanksgiving' dinner the week before Thanksgiving. No problem.
But, I won't attend their wedding - if and when it occurs.

You're just a bigoted asshole, Racist John.

If not believing in 'Gay Marriage' makes me a bigoted asshole, then I reckon you're right, Kevin.



There are many reasons why you are a bigoted asshole.

If John is a bigoted asshole, he is a taxing paying bigoted asshole.

How do you know that?

Don't want to tell anyone what to do but I got invited to a Gay Marriage
back in the 90's. I was against it too, still am. I went to the ceremony
though. I figure if two people think they love each other and want to
spend their lives together, who the f am I? And as far as the moral
dilema, I figure God can decide how to judge them later... I was good
friends with the guy and explained it to him just like that, he knew I
didn't agree with his lifestyle, but realized that I too am a sinner and
a Christian like him, and he didn't judge my sins...

Where is it written that marriage is between a man and a woman?

Your judgement doesn't really hold water, coming from a bigot. And
really, your argument is dishonest anyway, as it just brings us back to
the first question you dodged... What religion is A Charlie Brown

A Charlie Brown Christmas celebrates Christmas, of course, aka a

What religion is that???

Yup. Well, I love my niece, play golf with her, watched her graduate from the Naval Academy, cheered
when she became a Naval Aviator, and have had her and her 'spouse' for dinner several times.

But, I won't participate in a 'marriage' between gays. Just don't believe in it. Call it something
else, and I might go. Maybe - 'unionage', 'conjugage', 'amalgation', or make up another word. I
guess I'm just a 'bigoted asshole', along with being, according to H&K, a racist asshole.

Reminds me of a story:

A man walked into a bar right after the last election and yelled, "ALL LIBERALS ARE ASSHOLES!"

A little guy at the end of the bar stood up and said, "I resent that!"

The folks at the bar gave him a funny look, and he said, "Well, I'm an asshole."

So, Racist John, where is it stated that "marriage" is between a man and
a woman only? Merriam-Webster sure isn't on your side:

Definition of MARRIAGE

1
a (1) : the state of being united to a person of the opposite sex as
husband or wife in a consensual and contractual relationship recognized
by law (2) : the state of being united to a person of the same sex in a
relationship like that of a traditional marriage same-sex marriage

Neither is dictionary.com

mar·riage [mar-ij] Show IPA
noun
1.
a.
the social institution under which a man and woman establish their
decision to live as husband and wife by legal commitments, religious
ceremonies, etc. Antonyms: separation.
b.
a similar institution involving partners of the same gender: gay
marriage. Antonyms: separation.

Huh, neither does MacMillan

[COUNTABLE/UNCOUNTABLE] the relationship between two people who are
husband and wife

But, I guess FOX knows more, right....

But, I won't attend their wedding - if and when it occurs.

You're just a bigoted asshole, Racist John.

If not believing in 'Gay Marriage' makes me a bigoted asshole, then I reckon you're right, Kevin.



There are many reasons why you are a bigoted asshole.

If John is a bigoted asshole, he is a taxing paying bigoted asshole.


Don't want to tell anyone what to do but I got invited to a Gay Marriage
back in the 90's. I was against it too, still am. I went to the ceremony
though. I figure if two people think they love each other and want to
spend their lives together, who the f am I? And as far as the moral
dilema, I figure God can decide how to judge them later... I was good
friends with the guy and explained it to him just like that, he knew I
didn't agree with his lifestyle, but realized that I too am a sinner and
a Christian like him, and he didn't judge my sins...

Yup. Well, I love my niece, play golf with her, watched her graduate from the Naval Academy, cheered
when she became a Naval Aviator, and have had her and her 'spouse' for dinner several times.

But, I won't participate in a 'marriage' between gays. Just don't believe in it. Call it something
else, and I might go. Maybe - 'unionage', 'conjugage', 'amalgation', or make up another word. I
guess I'm just a 'bigoted asshole', along with being, according to H&K, a racist asshole.

Reminds me of a story:

A man walked into a bar right after the last election and yelled, "ALL LIBERALS ARE ASSHOLES!"

A little guy at the end of the bar stood up and said, "I resent that!"

The folks at the bar gave him a funny look, and he said, "Well, I'm an asshole."

There's more of that great Christian tolerence from Racist John.....

Judging from that article I'd have to say that the author, and
probably you, share some confusion about the difference between
values, religious beliefs and political beliefs. Sometimes reasonable
people with high values have to agree to disagree. More importantly,
it is inappropriate to try and impose your religious beliefs on others
and then accuse them of lacking "values".

Other than, possibly, the first one, there is nothing religious there. I
don't consider the first
one a religious position. 'Marriage' was an institution that had some
meaning. Now liberals,
especially, have made it a sham. And, I agree that 'it is 'it is
inappropriate to try and impose
your religious beliefs on others', and that includes atheists imposing
theirs. If you can't read
that and determine what 'values' are being discussed, then I can
understand your comments.

Religious beliefs are fine. Just do not force them on others, but
likewise, others should not infringe your religious freedoms. And marriage
has been different things through the years. Lots of the profits in the
bible had multiple wives. In the 1800's you could marry multiple spouses
in Texas, Alabama and another regions also. And not even have to be
Mormon. Texas about we're married if you announced it in front of 20
witness's or signed in to a hotel as Mr. And Mrs. No church or state
involved. It is supposed to be a free country. You want to marry same
sex? Go for it. Just do not require the rest of unto pay for your
lifestyle. Same goes for most drugs, do them, die if that happens, but do
not expect society to pay for your medical bills.


-----------------
dang Ipad and the spelling corrections.

You've referred several times to differences in the number of wives. Not a
lot of instances in the
bible of male prophets marrying other males, goats, or whatever. Ditto with
Texas, Alabama, and
other regions. I have a gay niece living with her girlfriend. They will
probably invite me to a
'wedding' soon. I won't attend because I think the 'ceremony' is a sham.


-----------------------------

It is supposed to be a free country. If you pay your taxes, do not force
your views on someone else, and the partners are not children and are in
agreement, then just let it be. Does not concern most of us, except maybe
in your views, but their views are allowable also.

I agree. They were both here for a 'Thanksgiving' dinner the week before Thanksgiving. No problem.

Where is it written that marriage is between a man and a woman?

Dictionary.com

mar·riage [mar-ij] Show IPA
noun
1.a.the social institution under which a man and woman establish their decision to live as husband
and wife by legal commitments, religious ceremonies, etc. Antonyms: separation.

And, of course, you can probably find secondary and tertiary meanings that include gays, dogs,
goats, etc.

Yup.

And I don't need to call you any names, 'cause everyone already knows.
