This is getting ridiculous

This all boils down to $$$. Companies don't want politics and personal views to get in the way of business. Isn't that what conservatives want? For the business to focus on increasing profits?!?? It's a different world, and goes back to what Zito said. You are CEO of a progressive company, and your demographic is progressive. Why put yourself in that situation?

It's the glamourization of it that causes this issue.

You hate gays will be PLASTERED in the liberal media which controls all media. Faux News is not the media to me, but a mouth piece and have no bite.

When you glamourize something it is viral and that is why it is an issue. Just like Chick Fil A or Ducks Dynasty, they target a liberal stance and it gets news. If it was a some mom and pop shop, like we have in this city, there is no news, if people don't like it they won't go there, but they been in busy for 50 years and getting business even though they do not tolerate things like that.

It is a scare tactic that is working, it is a war they are winning, but after they win, then what? You never going to change people's minds or them submitting on their own free will, but by a gun(besmirching) to bully them.

I certainly hope this isn't an argument against gay marriage.

marriage by the government has been cool with me since the beginning, but in the church they are not married and live in sin, that is my stance. But I am not the one who is judging them, He will. It is up to Him to do that but I will follow His lead and just shake my head and pray for them.

Kindly step down from your high horse, good sir.

The reason I quoted you was that it seems to me you believe that the purpose of marriage is to have kids. There are a lot of marriages with no kids. Are they living in sin or violating some religious covenant?

I am not on a high horse per se. I just tell you how I feel. Judge me you can, change my mind, you cannot. Marriage in God's eyes is about procreation so children and then their children and so on and so forth, be fruitful and multiply He said. It is His will we do this, but we have a choice, those who don't want to have children it is their choice, He is not making them. A sacrament to the church is to multiply, but even under that guise is troublesome as some multiply out of greed and stupidity, but a soul is a soul and we must honor that if you believe and if you don't, again, that is your choice and I am not the person to judge you.

You're speaking from a stance of knowing. You know more and thus are more pure. In reality, you think you know, so come down and join the rest of us troglodytes.

So, by what you just said, those who marry and make a conscious decision not to have children are living in sin or are violating a religious covenant. In that sense, those who are straight and marry and dont procreate are just as wrong and sinful as homosexuals marrying.

That is your opinion and opinion alone. No, God gives you that choice. He is your judge, I am not.

I cannot change your mind what you feel about my opinion.

I will leave it at that.

I'd be a little sensitive too if I had a political party pushing an agenda to constitutionally discriminate against me, and at the same time pass state laws that would make it easier to discriminate against me.

Do you think if gay rights' activists weren't as sensitive and just passive, that there would be legalized same sex marriage in as many states as there are?

A political party? This was a private business man

it's weird

i guess some people don't like to be treated as a 2nd citizen with not as many rights as others

i guess that makes some people mad

guess they should just "know their place" eh?

You know that I support the LGBT cause on the marriage front, right?
 
Is someone supports gay marriage would they also have to support polygamy? If there all consenting adults and such....

has no bearing on this conversation

but to answer the dumb question

sure, i could support it. it wouldn't bother me
 
Polygamy fits into the conversation.

If you redefine marriage as two consenting adults instead of man-women wouldn't you have to say 'well if two people can agree why not three?'

If, as some liberals say, not allowing gays to marry is against Thier rights, I would think they'd have to say the same about polygamy.

I'd just like to see a polygamist try to challenge it. If the Christains are in an uproar about gay marriage if like to see them Whig out over polygamy
