Bottom line is you want to take the rights away from other people you will be voting yes, if not your voting no. The whole teaching thing is just a bunch of mumbo jumbo to further the removing rights agenda
I should marry my dog too.
wrong. If the decision to allow gay marriage is upheld, then rights will be removed from anyone who is religious. If gay marriage is upheld, then religious leaders will not be allowed to deny a gay marriage in their church, and if homosexuality is mentioned as a sin, they can be charged with a hate crime. the gay marriage bill (from last year?) isn't just about the right to marry.
Someone find some facts here, no why would a pastor be required to wed a gay person (or any person)? Not saying it isn't true but just looking for some proof. I don't see anything herehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/California_Proposition_8_(2008)
PROPOSITION 8This initiative measure is submitted to the people in accordance with theprovisions of Article II, Section 8, of the California Constitution.This initiative measure expressly amends the California Constitution byadding a section thereto; therefore, new provisions proposed to be added areprinted in italic type to indicate that they are new.SECTION 1. TitleThis measure shall be known and may be cited as the “California MarriageProtection Act.”SECTION 2. Section 7.5 is added to Article I of the California Constitution,to read:SEC. 7.5. Only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognizedin California.
Not true, I've attended all types of churches (I'm Christan) been to Buddhist, Jewish, Christan, LDS, etc. etc and have been welcomed to attend.
that's not always the case though..Now how is that different, if your views are different yet you go but if a gay person goes..
The difference is that there are religious principles that churches are to follow - not by the law of men, but the law of their God. One of those principles is that marriage is to be between a man and a woman. There is no religious law that says that you can't welcome people from a different religious belief, but performing a ceremony that is against religious principles. Welcoming someone from another religion into the church and performing a gay marriage are two completely different things. There is no comparison as far as I'm concerned.
No one should be forced to do what they do not want to do. That would be socialism, oh wait that's the way we are currently headed.
Especially if it is against their religious code of conduct!
I bow to your beliefs and insight on religion. No one should be forced to do what they do not want to do. That would be socialism, oh wait that's the way we are currently headed.
and that is the only thing that is against the code of conduct? I doubt that, there are other reasons to deny people..
I did too, doesn't make me religious..
