Gay couple asked to reverse shirt at Dollywood

[ConHog]

Then... you... support the new policy?

Since before it was announced. WHo gives a shit if they are gay, long as they keep it to themselves.

Here I'll really blow your mind. I also support allowing gays to find a church that will marry them.

I must have missed something somewhere along the way then.

BTW, mind = not blown. I feel the same way.

Exactly. Stop kicking out gay soldiers because someone else outs them.

Good to know you support getting rid of DADT.

Proves you do nothing but troll without even reading posts if you didn't already know that about me from the other board.

You can't be saying that he isn't fitting right into the style of some here, I would like for everyone to tone it down a few notches and the overwhelming rightward tilt makes it an upward battle for any lib that wanders in. Frankly I'm surprised that KRB joined, damn happy, but surprised.

Please. Of course dipshit joined the board. He has an agenda...and probably no one to fight with at his previous home.

I'd be SHOCKED if he wasn't an idiot plant from you know where. He sure posts like one.

You should really buy a dictionary and look up "irony."

You guys dont understand what the purpose of marriage is, do you?

[KartRacerBoy]

You are one nasty vulgar disgusting dude. And you wonder why gays have the stereotype that they do? Really?

But you like the image of Luvrgrl talking about a dick in the mouth?

And once again, from a guy who posts that he wants to push buttons, you bitching about something like this is just rich.

Marriage = a religeous ceremony that entitles two people to legally take half of the other person's shit if they ever get tired of that person.

I'm cool with some church marrying fags, as long as it isn't MY church doing so.

Thats what a marriage IS, not its PURPOSE

My point is it is a religeous ceremony. I don't want people telling me what my religeon can define as marriage , and so I won't do so towards another religeon. It honestly affects me not at all if some other church wants to call marriage a union of two gays. Or ten lesbians, or whatever.

This world would be MUCH better off if the whole world would stop worrying about everyone else.

Religion was recognized as a civic matter long before it took on its current religious form. The Bishop of Antioch didn't try to get the Church involved in marriage as it existed until the year 110 C.E.

Nobody's doing any such thing. What we are doing is saying that your church can't dictate what civic unions and contracts the State will recognize just because you think homosexuality, race mixing, or marrying outside the church is 'sin'.

I say we do it like Rome. Marriage is a personal matter between the parties involved- no reason for the State to be involved or for any religious entities to be involved unless the parties marrying wish for the blessing of the temple/church/whatever.

Once again you are reading whatever you want into posts. I am FOR allowing churches to "marry" gays if they wish, and FOR the government getting out of marriage entirely, be it gay or straight marriages.

The state has a vested interest in the institution
