Here's a link to the U.S. Senate if anyone would like to post an e-mail to the Senator concerning the upcoming possible ban on gay marriage. It only takes about 10 seconds to locate your Senator and e-mail them.

Thanks for the link. I contacted both of my Senators and urged them to vote against any ban on gay marriage.

This is not a gay marriage ban, any more than it is a poligamist ban or a ban against marriage between two men and a two women. It is simply a definition of marriage as between a man and a woman. Period. This is consistent with Natural Law. If people want to indulge in sinful sex outside of this definition, they would be allowed to or not allowed to depending on State laws.

In Christ,
Bill Nelson

Seems fair. But other people are talking about denying gays any kind of civil union. That just isn't fair.

It is fair since it would be legally recognising something that is not really worth legally recognising, provides no use for society as a whole, and that is actually detrimental to respected institutes like marriage which already are in need of repair, while it is also considered immoral by a large segment of society.

Depends on what you are talking about. If you are saying that they should have preferential treatment because, well, they have political clout. Then no, they should not. We should treat everyone the same, and maybe give friends a little slack. But I don't think we should buckle under to special interest groups. -bill
