Hi, My wife has been posting here for some time now. She made me get my own name to make post by. It appears my first was not appreciated.

Hev, I don't bait anybody. Nor was I attempting to bait you. Fact is I would like to see a lot of changes in the world too. That does not mean I will get what I want.

I have known many people over the years. Both men and women. Some were gay some were not. To this day the gays that I knew are welcome in my house and I am welcome in theirs. I am sorry you took it wrong. My point was it is not a level playing field and it never will be.

The doctor does not work for eggs anymore, the banker will never deal in rocks for coins, you find a lawyer that will work for free and we will both use him and judges will never allow themselves to be put on a bucket just so they can wave their little gavel.

What does that have to do with homosexuals being treated like second class citizens? It doesn't matter what form of payment anyone accepts.

Homosexuals can't "do what they want to do" as you were implying. That is the whole point of the homosexual marriage debate!

Why should people decide what is right or wrong for two consenting adults? Personal morality shouldn't be dictated by a majority onto a minority.

There is little doubt that the world in general is more liberal than it was 50 years ago and beyond. Conservatives are simply roadblocks on the path to an ever more progressive and liberal world. What a sad existence.

If Jesus Christ Himself couldn't straighten them out, What makes you think you can? They hung Him. What are they going to do to me and you?

Furthermore who really gives a shit. We're just a voice blowing in the wind. After being robbed and abused by the justice system I have been told, "just get on with your life." I guess that can apply to all.

No one needs to be "straightened". Homosexual couples just need the same kind of support that hetrosexual couples currently receive. It would only serve to strengthen us all as a society.

Maybe you need to go talk to George Jung. Maybe he can explain things to you. Some things just aren't real.

Welcome RR, I sure do have a number of questions about you. But for starters, what does George Jung have to do with someone recognizing that gay folk are not able to simply avail themselves to the same choices as anyone else. There is a severe need for gay people to be given rights and recognition before they can know equality.

I fail to see, from what little I know about Geo. Jung, what he has to do with any of this.

Well, yeah, if you want to look at it that way. But his feet was supported by a base that was about two inches from his soles. But with the nails, well, it is too grisly to even think about it.
