Not surprisingly, it all comes down to God, and a belief that he will act against our society as a whole if we allow gays to marry. There can be no live-and-let-live in their eyes.<br /><br />These folks just can't accept that some of us don't believe in that sort of God, and shouldn't have our lives curtailed by their fears.<br /><br />I was happy to hear Obama finally say what I'm certain he has privately believed for years.Steve Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11684120060438252945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2607471777855707790.post-67264991725191484812012-05-10T15:41:09.139-04:002012-05-10T15:41:09.139-04:00Hey, Reya,

Why are those so invested in one man, one woman = marriage so intent on forcing the rest of us to be the same way, to be so rabid about it that they want to make it the law!!! I really don't get the hate that they harbor. And their excuses for it! It will destroy traditional marriage? Like all of a sudden men and women aren't going to get married? I think adultery and divorce are more destructive to marriage than two people of the same sex loving and marrying.<br /><br />I know what you mean about karma. at this point in my life my goal is to not create any bad karma. if I can clean up some stuff while I do that, great. I know I have a big karma thing with my mother too. I didn't rise to the opportunity when she was widowed, alone, and her health was failing. I didn't ignore her but I resented having to take care of her. But then, she was very demanding and refused to do anything that would make it easier for me to look after her including moving to town (it was an hour and 15 minute drive one way from my house to hers).ellen abbotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00535475792150335186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2607471777855707790.post-51662837874935622192012-05-10T13:33:33.152-04:002012-05-10T13:33:33.152-04:00It won't last, but it's sad - and hateful....It won't last, but it's sad - and hateful.Reya Mellickerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13076092659507965666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2607471777855707790.post-10466858083803784162012-05-10T13:24:56.491-04:002012-05-10T13:24:56.491-04:00Good for you Reya.

Even as a more conservative person, I am so on the same side as you here and I know I raised a daughter who is as well (which makes me proud). <br />I am still amazed that anyone cares who anyone else marries. Honestly, I do not understand why people care so much about it (those against I mean). What on earth does it have to do with them and their lives? I wish they cared more about people starving, education and child abuse. I cannot believe with all the ills of the world, the environment, human slavery, war and our nation's debt, that this is something people get fired up about.
