I'll go on record as saying marriage is between a man and a woman. To define it otherwise devalues a real marriage. I don't care if two people want to cohabit and share bodily fluids. They already have a civil union with legal rights. Nobody is keeping them from getting married, as long as a man marries a woman.
And while I'm at it. I despise the term "hate crime" because all violent crime is pretty much a hate crime. Then how come they don't prosecute black crime against whites as a hate crime? We have a (half) black president elect so there is no reason to have a "protected" class of people. Affirmative action is a bust or it has worked to its final conclusion. Either way, it should be abolished and every competes on the merits of their work and their character. - NoLibertarians, on 11/17/2008, -4/+8Of course they were..Right or wrong this is how the people voted..

While laws alone can't change people's hearts, they can be teachers. And we need this teacher, to get our society back on its original track. The good thing about laws is that there are rules - majority rules, for example. If most people want it, then that's the way it shall be. Unfortunately, that often results in things that aren't morally healthy; people want lots of things that aren't good for them. This is where education steps in to fill the information void. Unfortunately again, public education isn't what it used to be. Revisionist history, political correctness, etc., have run rampant through our public schools, and now pretty much anything goes, and to heck with parents' authority over what their children are taught.
Thank God for homeschoolers who teach the traditional classic method, along with traditional Christian values.
