    What Is the Big Deal With Gay Marriage?

    Certainly I am free to love whomever I want to and I'm working such that should I become married in the future it will be recognized by the government. Support continues to rise as people get to know gay people are normal and as people who are staunchly opposed age out of politics. I'm under no...

    What Is the Big Deal With Gay Marriage?

    A few random comments/remarks. What does it say that gay people are willing to pay more in taxes to be married? Some heterosexual people already engage in sham marriages for benefits, so do some homosexual people (by marrying heterosexual people (who wants to be that woman married to a closet...

    What Is the Big Deal With Gay Marriage?

    Bless you, the religious discussion is over. If you have any non-religious points to make I'd love to hear them. Don't worry I don't hold grudges, you can still be invited to the wedding :cool2:

    What Is the Big Deal With Gay Marriage?

    Perhaps I was too indirect, I'll explain my point and then drop any religious discussion. The Bible says a lot of things are bad, not everything that the Bible says is bad are considered bad by modern Christians. Presumably there are those who no longer believe women should be forbidden from...

    What Is the Big Deal With Gay Marriage?

    The Bible condemns much (including women teaching men), but from what I have gleamed from reading the forums, religious discussions are verboten here?

    Bless you, when I marry a man it will be a marriage. You'll be free to disagree, as is your right, and you will be wrong. *shrug*

    I don't understand what motivates people who think that way.

    Anybody been in debt and got out?

    I've heard they set it up so the interest rates kick in 18 months (or however many months) to the _day_ after a purchase, but the payment schedule is set up so the last payment comes after that date so it's not quite paid off and then the interest is due. yikes, tricky fine-print!

    A 5.9 Earthquake hits Va; felt all the way up in New York

    I was on the 12th floor in my office, at first it felt like somebody walking down the hall, then it felt like a large person walking down the hall, then the desk actually started shaking and I knew it wasn't a person at all! Realized what it was a few seconds after that. Scary. Haven't heard any...

    Captioned movies at the theatre

    It is. The plastic thing never stays where it's supposed to, for me at any rate, so the words aren't always on the plastic thing and you have to constantly readjust it.

    how much ASL should I know first?

    Usually not, no. The book mentioned that it's polite to sign "hi" though so other people know that there are people who might be able to understand them. "Interrupt" may not have been the best word to use. I'm not sure if the book is saying that because it's true, because it wants to encourage...

    how much ASL should I know first?

    I hope this is the correct forum, still fairly new here. So I'm curious, just how much ASL should I know before signing "hi" to somebody else I see signing? I was at a show the other night and saw some folks signing but I am only halfway through an ASL 1 class so I was afraid I wouldn't be able...

    Dollywood to lesbian: Change gay-marriage tee

    Definitely, she contributed a song to the film "Transamerica" too. I'd be curious to find out why the shirt was considered offensive. Was it because it was a pro-marriage shirt? Was it because the person thought it was using the word gay as a pejorative word against marriage? (kids use "gay"...
