1. Still.........
that's a surpizing number of yes votes on a site like that. Maybe people aren't as "upset" about this issue as they'd like us to believe.

4. I just can't believe anyone cares! There are so many problems
in the world. So what if two people of the same sex want the legal benefits of marriage! And as one of my old bosses once said, if they don't get married their living in sin.

Same with the abortion issue. If the people who wanted to stop abortions put half as much time and money and effort into making the world better for women and children, they would probably cut the abortion rate down 99%.

5. I agree...but tell it to the Republicans. They're the ones pushing
laws to prevent it.
