Though I’m a Christian, I have a big problem with the attack on homosexuals a certain portion of believers (FoF types) think is so critical to our survival as a nation. WTF? Two guys doing whatever the heck their doing has nothing to do with the health of my marriage, and Christians get divorced at similar rates as everyone else. Shouldn’t we be concerned with making our own marriages stronger rather than wasting time with this bs?

By the way, the consistent, freedom-protecting view of same-sex marriages is for government not to care and to back off. Marriage to the state is a legal agreement, nothing more. Backing off also means that Big Brother doesn’t force privately held companies to recognize such a union and extend benefits if the ownership of that company objects. The sheer lack of good workers would probably convince most companies to not pass on a good employee regardless of their personal preferences.

I find it ironic that conservatives, while espousing the tenets of small government and individual freedoms, can’t bare to keep themselves from intruding into peoples lives when it comes to issues of sexual preference and procreation. There’s a popular bumper sticker in this city, it says simply “Focus on Your Own Damn Family.”
