Erm, you were the one who started up the comparison between blacks and gays. In the original post.

Not everyone bases their objection on religion either. I know plenty of non-religious people who want for the word marriage to only mean between a man and a woman. That's not to say there aren't a lot in the religious opposition to it. But the brush you are using is entirely too broad.

I'll also make the original point that I made a day or 2 ago that government should not even be involved in anyone's marriage. Nor should they be involved in anyone's religion. I think it's entirely ridiculous that our government has run amok the way it has the past 20 years. It needs to stop, and sooner rather than later, otherwise we're going to have another war of secession on our hands.

Then again it is our puritanical beginnings that make this country the great one that it is. The further we drift from it, the worse off we end up. In fact it is the puritanical beginnings that allow you and I to have this reasoned discourse online without fear of stormtroopers barging down our doors.
