Adam's words more than answeres it. But if you need it explained word for word to you from my perspective, I am more than willing to accomodate.

We are not talking about what two people do in the privacy of their bedroom now are we? We are talking about counterfeit licenses being issued illegaly to accomadate a perversion of the institution of marriage.

People are indeed free to make their moral choices in the privacy of their bedroom. God has been clear on His stance regarding this particular choice in the scriptures and you and others may or may not agree with that. That is fine...it is an individual choice...but don't think there are not consequences. Any level-headed and honest look at health statistics regarding STD's and the various segments of society where they are most prevelant will make that clear. And the care of those individuals steps right out of the bedroom and into your and my pocket book.

Yes, people can answer to God if they leave it there in the bedroom, but this issue...along with being a sin in private IMHO, will not stay there in the bedroom by any stretch.

As I said before...that dog can't hunt.

Your attempts to change the nature of the discussion and place it in the bedroom are lame IMHO, and even that attempt fails on its face when you consider the health issue as I have explained. But even if that were granted...it has no bearing on this conversation because the fact is that those people on the steps of the courthouse in San Francisco are not in their bedrooms, they are demanding equal legal status under the law, wanting to pretend they are legally married when their very union is a wresting of the definition of the term and illegal under the law as well. The consequences of letting THAT stand effects us all. Health wise, tax wise, morally, etc., etc.

All of that is more than implied by Adam's words. That folks like you either fail to see it...or don't want to see it...is the very definition of the danger Adams referred to.

From my perspective, there is no need to disagree and strain the point any more between us. The colors are evident in the conversation and the different sides have been represented. I am more than willing to let other readers and lurkers here read the two sides and decide for themselves.

ok...all i'm going to say on the point is that the BASIS for your argument against issuing marriage licenses is what the gays do in the bedroom...so yes, that IS what we're talking about.

as to what god thinks about this-
i suspect that anytime people are kind to each other...who treat others the way they themselves would be treated...are going to be fine in his eyes.

i think some people need to take a hard look at why it is that homosexuality bothers them so deeply.
