It's not that I disagree with you but first, seriously, you do the conservative cause no great deal with that kind of spelling. We all make spelling mistakes but you got yours capitalized all big and bold and I can't believe you didn't see how odd it looked.

However, what the hell is your point? Do you really think like the FCC should PROHIBIT NBC from giving a wedding to same sex couples?

Which makes me first qualify that I really am unfamiliar with what this is all about so correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think NBC has the authority to make a marriage between same sex couples official or anything.

NBC does what...provides weddings stuff/puts on a wedding, for engaged folks? Same sex couples, so far as I know, are allowed to have a wedding all day, any day of the week. They just don't have a marriage license is all. The NBC thing is about the pomp and circumstance of it all, not what went on down at city hall.

So you really think what...the FCC should not allow a wedding ceremony between same sex couples to be shown on TV?

You really think that? You think that's some kind of winning strategy?

My original contention was, and still is, that if NBC shows such a thing, the public will either tune in or tune out. Experience has it, based on my anecdotal evidence, that same sex marriages/love type of events, really aren't all that well-received by the public because....well I'll go out on a limb and state it's probably cause most of the planet is heterosexual and homosexuality is repugnant to most. I know the homos don't like this but they can lead every damn one of us to water but they can't make us drink.

But what's wrong with my concept that the public will either buy it, or they won't? I'm thinking NBC might have one same sex wedding, the public will watch out of curiousity and that will likely be the end of it.

But no, I don't want the FCC to make showing such a thing on TV illegal.

Conservatives don't normally want the FCC running the show like that.

No. By it's participation, NBC is PROMOTING deviancy. And promoting legal same sex unions. And that will NOT be the end of it. IF they get away with it, it is one more step down the path to a totally immoral society. Anyone not speaking out against it is allowing it to progress. Silence is acquiescence.

I never said that the FCC should ban it. The board of directors and their “people” in the internal “standards and practices” department should.

It is deviancy and those who founded the networks would be sickened at what is promoted by the networks today.
