Im from Missouri we just recently (when I say I mean the people of Missouri) to ballot issue of same sex marrage was voted on. The people of Missouri voted to give the State Legislature the authority to amend the State Constitution to define legal marrage to be between a man and woman only...
I personaly see this as a signifigant signal that we are consumed with the wrong issues today. I am Libertarian so by admission I must say I usually stand on the opposite end of pro legislative agenda.
In my family there are two families that have been torn apart because of the husbands/fathers having the "comming out of the closet" moment in thier lives. I have seen what this does to families and the people directly envolved. It is sad and heart wrenching to watch these mothers who have struggled to be the perfect mother drug through the mud of Neo Nazi Christians (yes I said that) who flippantly dole out condimnation because of thier radical beliefs that are almost as fundamentally wacked as the Islamic factions that stone people to death. ( if you think Im over stepping my bounds then think how many of you have thought how AIDS is God's way of punishing the wicked....I say all this to make my point which is this.
1 When women like my sister and my aunt, fall victim to gay men that are hidding in closets, not one of the Moral Police out here say a darn thing other than use the occation to preach thier gospel and condem. Never once consider what America needs is alternatives and solutions NOT a stinking Revival! save that for your church fans please...(remember the seperation of church and state thingy?)
2 Speaking of seperation of church and state, we cant have it both ways! State stay out of church please....just the same Church stay out of State!.
The citizins of Missouri voted for the constitutional amendment and I accept it, that thats democracy, I do believe that we are erronious in thinking that laws of this kind will ever render the results that the populus desires. Understand one thing, the government has no Authority to give any one rights...they must fulfill their obligation to provide security to protect those enaliable rights which people already have, simply by being born.
laws that are meant to control and hinder personal preference make me nervous...But as some of you may ask if Im not one of them then why worry right? After all the government always knows best.....
