Love in any form is in short comodity these days ,so if two people ,regardless of what sex they are fall in love,I believe they have the right to be married and have the government acknowledge it as a true marrige

Welcome to Free Republic, angelisa. Apparently, you just signed up today (5/30/04, PDT). Read this response carefully, because it may save you a lot of rough lessons around here.

As you may have noticed, FR is a conservative news forum. Participation from liberals is not prohibited, but us Freepers have a pretty low tolerance for people who comment on issues when they clearly don't know their stuff.

If the above post is indicative of your regular thinking process, you, angelisa, don't know your stuff. You aren't even in sniffing distance of your stuff. For your sake, I hope you are a child, because an adult should have a more informed opinion on thorny issues like same-sex marriage.

Your statement's naivete is stunning. "Love in any form is in short comodity (sic) these days..."? What in the world does THAT mean? Who is in charge of measuring the average daily volume of love? Who determines whether someone is "in love" or not? And what are the different forms of love that you make reference to?

You go on to say you believe "two people, regardless of what sex they are...have the right to be married and have the government acknowledge it as a true marrige (sic)" What do you think marriage is for, angelisa? Do you really have any idea? Here's a hint: no matter how much two men or two women express their "love" for each other physically, they will NEVER create a family by themselves. NEVER.

I invite you to quit thinking in little bumper-sticker slogans and examine the real issues in the controversy about same-sex marriage, such as:

Yes, angelisa, it's a lot scarier than talking about 'falling in love.' You may not want to make the effort to understand. But that's the way things are around here, sweetie. You can be a Freeper, or you can be sheeple. The choice is yours.
