    Equal rights for everyone, even carpet munchers and fudge packers. Seems pretty simple to me.

    Marriage = religious institution issue.

    Civil unions = government issue.

    Marrige is as much a social and legal event as a religious one anymore. Straight couples can get "Married" by a judge with no religious meaning to it. This has not been a religious only life event for a long time and the people who are defending it as such are plain old bigots.

    No religion has any authority over the idea of marriage.

    I'm trying to figure out how "Life, Liberty, and the prusuit of happiness" is only for non-gay people myself. Spperate but equal has never actually held true in any society.

    Lets say the gay marriage is between 2 men. Does one pick a best man and the other pick bridesmaids? I mean, how does that work? haha.

    I would not pat myself on the back for having a gay marriage, but do what you want.

    Also, I don't get what you are saying.

    You've been here long enough to know exactly what that meant.

    Whatever. It is a funny question I asked. I do wonder how that works really. And if the gay guy who has the bridesmaids chooses, are some girls and some guys? Its a logical question to ask. That is a messed up image in my mind, to some that might seem normal.

    That is the LEAST of their priorities. I highly doubt that they care who is in the wedding party, at that point.
