Heyyo,
VERY nicely put HangFire, I agree.
I cause yes, people should have the right to believe and do what they want. Just because religion choses to believe that marriage is a sacred bond between a male and a female doesn't mean the rest of the world has to see it so.
I for one am a christian, and don't condone gay couples n' such, but hey, I ain't against them. I actually have a few gay friends, n' I don't care... but when they say stuff like, "You're cute," ok, then I get a little freaked out n' wanna run for my life... but that's just insticts eh?
I was once told by a priest, "God gave us the ability to chose, the freedom to choose, what we do with our choices is up to us. We can choose to follow the lord, or not." So yeah, I choose to follow the lord n' stuff, but I'm not a hardcore christian. I'm sure there's others out there that can relate to my current situation with religion. You know? I attend church on sundays in the mornin', n' I do my prayers before bed, but I don't go condeming anything that Christianity says is wrong, it's just not who I chose to be. I actually believe we shouldn't force our beliefs on others or else it becomes more of a dictatorship than a democarcy.
I know my answer isin't as glamarous n' monumental as PM's will be if he posts here again (I swear I'm not brown nosing
), but hey, just my point of view. I tried to shorten this one, see if I can cut back on my ramblins'... sry guys, I tried, cut down like, 4 lines, which I'm writing now to explain this all. I'm just too much of a French-Canadian rambler to feel like cutting anything out, one of my main probs with school essays, they were always like, 3 pages.
