That's hilarious. The Bible says nothing about marriage between a white and a black. The only marriage condemned in scripture is marriage between a Christian and non-Christian. The Bible and science both teach that we are all of a common race[1][2]; that we are all descendants of Adam and Eve[3][4][5]; and that we are to be fruitful and multiply[6][7][8] (which is not a bad thing), in married, heterosexual unions[9][10]. You can believe this stuff even if you believe in millions of years. The most important thing is accepting the gospel.

12 years
We have to go through some bullshit issues not involving the gays.

Enough of one person changing the view of the mass, but we will fight back. A few gays can marry but it will never be accepted by the mass public, no matter what law they pass. Our views or just that our own, and this fight isn't over.

This isn't a reaction, its been our view for years, a lot longer before this day. So, since I am someone who does more then type on a forum about these things, I know this as a fact. Can you say the same or are you just a "talker".

I would think that conservative would support preserving the institution of marriage.

Don't like homosexuality? Don't have gay sex. You don't have to be a jerk to people that want to live life, because of your weird dislike of nature, or whatever.

It isn't different from all the other subjects, where not liking something =/= going to everyone and tell them what they like as if you own them.
