[Citizen Tom Paine]

I do not think that homosexuals should be able to be married in any state in the United States. Having said that, I don't favor the Federal Government (either by means of the courts, Congress, or one of its regulatory agencies) sticking its snoot into yet another area of our lives.

I view homosexual unions as a moral (and perhaps a medical) issue and as such should be dealt with on an individual basis (one at a time) until the problem is resolved.

It is time that the main line churches take a positive position which is clearly based on Biblical principles.IMHO.

If gays want to get married, fine. They just have to make sure they have a mother-in-law (or is it mothers-in law). They should suffer just like everybody else./funny tag

"I view homosexual unions as a moral (and perhaps a medical) issue and as such should be dealt with on an individual basis (one at a time) until the problem is resolved."

Since you've stated that you do not think homosexuals should be allowed to be married in any state, how do you propose the issues be dealt with (one at a time)? Are you refering to state laws against homosexual marriage? If so, do you not think we would need a federal law to protect states that don't want homosexual marriage from having to recognize such marriages initiated in another state?
