Your #342 reads like you advocate gay marriage. So, let's be clear. Do you think we should change existing laws to allow gay marriage?
Shalom.
You read it that way because that's how you want to read it.

I'm not gay and have no intention of participating in a gay marriage, so I really don't have a place to speak on the matter. I'm completely indifferent on the matter personally. However, if two people of the same sex decide they want to live together as a couple for the rest of their lives, how does the government (i.e. the people) have any standing to abridge their freedom of association and say, "No, you may not be married"? I think that steps over the bounds of what the collective society can impose on individuals. Besides, how does their "marriage" harm me?
And further, I think it's a bit of a disingenuous catch 22 for hardline conservative to always be denigrating gays for alleged promiscuity, but at the same time fight to deny them the vehicle to enter into a long term monogamous relationship.
