    That was probably one of the best GLBT articles I've ever read, considering that it was written by a straight man. Plus, I mean that had to take alot of guts.

    PS: ROFL! Sour Milk!

    I like his writing style:
    "As a formerly married man, I probably did more harm to the institution than any gay couple ever could."

    hehe...some good common sense there.

    Heh, I don't see any threat to society. Let them marry and have a good life.

    The threat to society is actually the crimes and the wars!

    (And even animals like male penguins sometimes have their male partner! And life partner!! Could have said that they are 'married' too.)

    This was a great article. It's exactly how I feel. What's the harm? What damage is likely to occur? There isn't a really solid argument to continue to deny it, other than people are 'uncomfortable' with the idea.

    Get over it!

    Thanks for sharing this Becky!

    If God created us, nothing should be against God's will, unless God is a control freak. :confused:

    i actually heard someone argue that gay marriage would like be bad for the economy.... even if that is true which i highly doubt, how can u put the economy over constitutional rights
