Only a man and a woman can do that, regardless. Now we are looking at this? Polymory? These people are polymorons.<br /><br />Liberals are way too into sensationalism; defining the individual levels of race, ethnicity, sexuality, and lack of religion (or at least Judeo-Christian upbringings).<br /><br />I truly could care less about someone elses personal and private lives.<br /><br />I think this topic will fade as individual states elect to vote the topic.<br /><br />Civil unions, sure. Equal fields...somewhat. Sorry, but if you do not have an innie + an outie is does not equal the word "marriage" to me. <br /><br />I once was agnostic on this subject, until I listened to a very radical and very loony person stating riots in the street and no one safe. That is when I had a change of heart and thought about the world my two children will have to pick up and work with.<br /><br />These people are insane.Disco Primehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07147139555502428307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-71174117602913874032009-07-30T14:00:35.895-04:002009-07-30T14:00:35.895-04:00If only there were some way for different states t...If only there were some way for different states to have different marriage laws and where people were free to move to the state with the laws they felt were best.<br /><br />Too bad that all laws must be universal.

This includes polygamy and prostitution.

It may often be especially <em>roman</em>tic. And beautiful*. But it is neither natural nor inevitable nor particularly biblical (before the time of the Roman occupation).<br /><br /> <br />* Precisely because it is unnatural, counter-instinctual, and difficult. Just like running through a burning building to save a stranger who isn't even genetically related to them is noble and human.Christoph Dollishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08419938664333559498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-54488046070477390092009-07-30T00:09:33.273-04:002009-07-30T00:09:33.273-04:00My father subscribed to Newsweek.

As a kid, the only part of it I could pretend to understand were the political cartoons and some of the movie articles, but once I was old enough, I started reading more. In 2007, taken with some of the early election season coverage, I decided to purchase a two-year subscription.<br /><br />That subscription comes to an end soon, and I have no intention of renewing it. Here's a link to a letter I wrote to the editor explaining why:<br /><br />http://youngconservative27.blogspot.com/2009/06/just-another-example-of-media-bias.htmlStephen Monteithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15143772995125473635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-19375913599842550512009-07-29T23:37:54.125-04:002009-07-29T23:37:54.125-04:00Great post, William!Great post, William!AmPowerBloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18236333181889271910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-21428369887898661982009-07-29T21:50:04.896-04:002009-07-29T21:50:04.896-04:00I think the slippery slope arguments are quite per...I think the slippery slope arguments are quite persuasive. Either society defines marriage narrowly (in the interest of strengthening and stabilizing the family), or marriage becomes some kind of god-awful chimera pieced together by various special interest groups.RightKlikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04475874038428195332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-79906234194319289102009-07-29T19:32:28.691-04:002009-07-29T19:32:28.691-04:00I'm waiting for this Newsweek cover: "The...I'm waiting for this Newsweek cover: "The End of Newsweek!
