Every gay person I've talked to has told me they were born that way... so how can we punish them for being born that way? I mean we dont punish people for being born black or asian, but we punish people for being gay? Kinda hypocritical.

Someone I know said that he became gay after some event occurred, or he simply became that way. *shrug*

In any event, it's a controversial issue, as there was a recent report of a lesbian couple unable to divorce, since the state law in Rhode Island defines marriage as "a union between a man and a woman."

its stupid. There don't need to be laws saying who you can love and who you can't, even in a freakin' game.

It prevents lawsuits.

Calm thyself, Jenna/O-mie/Fable/It?/O-zilla.

They need to be able to keep the bread they make on the table.

It? wtf. I am calm o.o Its just an opinion lol

Calm people don't care about things though, and therefore don't really voice their opinions. And apparently my reputation gave you another bar in that reputation thing. O_o

In any event, they need to be able to sustain themselves and dependents. Offending people who pay you is probably not the best thing to do. >_>

Calm people can voice their opinions... existentialists dont care about things. Omie doesnt seem like an existentialist.

Yes, calm people can. That's undermining my point, shh.

She definitely is an existentialist, though.

*Awaits violent protest*

I think you're confusing existentialism with nihilism, but I'm not an authority on either so who knows.

As for calm people not voicing their opinions, that isn't true. It's just that calm people voices are drown out by not-so-calm people shouting over them.

Calm people do care about things. If I didn't care, I'd be a robot =o or a pessimist. What was that quote... "IF I did not dream, nothing would become a reality."

And actually pritcher's did I think xD; his was after yours. who knows =o

Anyhow, I'm just saying that it should be equal. Its really only a big deal because conservative, senile, war-mongering old men who like to pretend to nail themselves to crosses each night run our country. Sad but true. And I was kind of raised to actually care about what goes on around me =P Since it does affect me even if not directly.

It depends on where you live.

I don't think President Bush would do that to himself.
