		<description>&lt;em&gt;”As much as one may wish to live and let live,” Harvard Law professor Mary Ann Glendon wrote in 2004, during the same-sex marriage debate in Massachusetts, ”the experience in other countries reveals that once these arrangements become law, there will be no live-and-let-live policy for those who differ. Gay-marriage proponents use the language of openness, tolerance, and diversity, yet one foreseeable effect of their success will be to usher in an era of intolerance and discrimination . . . Every person and every religion that disagrees will be labeled as bigoted and openly discriminated against. The ax will fall most heavily on religious persons and groups that don’t go along. Religious institutions will be hit with lawsuits if they refuse to compromise their principles.”&lt;/em&gt;



I&#039;ve spent the better part of the last few years trying to figure out how gay marriage diminishes the import of my hetero marriage. I&#039;ve mulled O&#039;Reilly&#039;s contention that allowing gay marriage opens the door for every possible marital combination.

Still .... what I have with my wife remains the preminant focus of my world and what others do to find their own personnal satisfaction has little or no bearing on what I share with God and my wife.

Having said that ....what Glendon chronicles will not only come to pass - it has come to pass.

The spoil sports will not be satisfied until they own the entire sand box - only by thoroughly defeating us can they ever hope to find the hollow victory they seek to fill the God sized holes in their hearts and their self esteem.</description>

		<description>DaMav, that&#039;s one major reason why nobody is particularly crying over the demise of newspapers, other than newspapers.  They lost credibility like I&#039;ve never seen this past election.

There is no doubt about the bias, and normal people have no particular use for partisan reporting.  If we want that, we have blogs.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Living in Rome say about 310 a.d. must have felt about like living in the USA feels today.

notagool on April 27, 2009 at 4:00 PM&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Yeah, except that, in 310 a.d., things were trending in a better direction in terms of being able to speak one&#039;s mind about his own faith.

To the commenter who thinks it&#039;s time to move away from this issue, consider this point.  Carrie Prejean is an unwitting spokesperson for an issue that in itself is enough of a flashpoint, but the situation surrounding her is blowing up into an even bigger issue.   The issue inherent is as follows:

Is one free to hold and express his own opinion anymore if it differs from the opinion of a substantial, loud minority?  Some people clearly think the answer to that question is NO, and bravo to Ms. Prejean for insisting on her right.</description>

&quot;It is an anti Christian movement.&quot;

That is the common denominator of communism, Islam, atheism, liberalism, United Nations, George Soros and all the organizations he owns (including the DNC), abortion industry, etc. 

The anti-Christ movement.

Particularly interesting is the fact that Jeremiah Wright, 20-year mentor to the man in the White House now, agrees with the theology that any &quot;god&quot; who loves white people just as Blacks must be................. killed. He and his fellow adherents of Black liberation theology have been killing Jesus WITHIN THE CHURCHES systematically for some time now.

Political beast, meet the religious beast. And bow to the one you both serve, the dragon.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;The irony of all this is that her opinion most closely matches the stated position of President Barrack Obama. The difference is that she had the courage to stand up and say it and pay the price.

DaMav on April 28, 2009 at 5:23 AM&lt;/blockquote&gt;

The other difference is that she actually believes what she is saying.  The reason Obama gets a pass from the Left is because they know he is lying.  As he tells the country he believes in traditional marriage, he is winking at his gay activist supporters.  They know that as soon as it is politically safe, he will help them push their agenda forward.  The left cares more about politics than principle so they are more than willing to give Obama a pass for his lies if it&#039;s part of a political strategy to increase the Left&#039;s power.</description>

		<description>California should be very proud to have such a fine, honest, gutsy woman representing the state as a contestant in the Miss America Contest.  

Listen to the video -- she got a lot of applause for her answer.  Yet the media only reported the few negative responses as if they represented the crowd.

This is a worthwhile story not only because the young lady is an inspirational role model, but because the vicious, untruthful, and distorted responses her answer provoked among the opposition should serve as a warning that our very freedom of opinion is threatened in today&#039;s America.

		<description>&lt;em&gt;Ed, this story had its 15 minutes of fame. Move on to something relevant, nobody cares about this bimbo except you.

athensboy on April 27, 2009 at 8:11 PM
&lt;/em&gt;

  There is so much to this story concerning the right to a strong woman with her opinion, especially when it goes against the grain of correctness, that for Ed to ignore it is equal to ignoring any corruption of free speech.

  Perez wants to put people like Ms. Prejean in a burka of correctness and punish those who don&#039;t agree with what &quot;everyone&quot; (even though her opinion is the opinion of a majority of Californians) thinks is the proper way of thinking.  She has a right to think what she wants and say what she wishes.  The fact it drives Hilton to cataplexy, that she would dare on such a stage to be honest to her convictions, in a free society should be respected instead of shouted down.

  California beauty pagent officals harken back to the day when they wanted to just stuff women in bathing suits and strut them on stage without any regard to them as women.  Well, officials, be careful what you wish for, you may get it.

  And calling her a bimbo is degrading to her and the effort it took her to make it to that stage.  My neice was a pagent contestant in the Miss Louisiana contest and you have no idea what those women go though.  My hats off to any women who have the courage to take it on.</description>

<p>  And calling her a bimbo is degrading to her and the effort it took her to make it to that stage.  My neice was a pagent contestant in the Miss Louisiana contest and you have no idea what those women go though.  My hats off to any women who have the courage to take it on.</p>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;The chick that won is way hotter than Miss Cali FWIW.

FWIW? It ain&#039;t worth much. She&#039;s nothing special compared to Carrie, who shines like a precious jewel.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Because 10% of the population thinks that a right exists where it doesn’t.

I agree with virtually everything you state on this unfortunate subject. However, the correct figure for American sodomite population is approximately 4% of males and 2% of females. 

The 10% number is from a child molester who was &quot;working&quot; on a grant. While creating slanted statistics on sodomy, he was also busy molesting infants and toddlers to determine their &quot;orgasmic&quot; response to physical stimulation. 

The hero of the sodomy legitimization movement is the filthiest degenerate of all perverts. Birds of a feather flock together.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m against same sex marriage.  Nonetheless, I don&#039;t give a rat&#039;s ass what this person thinks about the subject, or any other subject for that matter.  I also realize that nobody particularly cares about my opinion on the matter either.  The chick that won is way hotter than Miss Cali FWIW.</description>

Miss California dares to believe that Mother Nature exists.

&lt;em&gt;She must be stopped!&lt;/em&gt;</description>

		<description>Give it a rest.The woman spoke her mind. When did America start demonizing people for their point of view.

Welcome the the New Age - I guess. I won&#039;t be participating though, at least not on National TV.

Thank God she had the guts.</description>

Instead, she gave the one that warmed the hearts of most.

I agree! Good for her!</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;I agree with the 10% but I do not think that a beauty pageant is the place for the debate nor do I think the bimbos on either side of the issue at the pageant have anything to offer on the debate.

lexhamfox on April 27, 2009 at 4:30 PM&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Why attack the girl because you don&#039;t agree with her religious views?  Is this more of the famous Queer Tolerance for The Other?

She didn&#039;t attack anyone, but has been savaged by the radical queer community, in their hate campaign against Christianity.  You&#039;re entitled to your views, so have them.  Then STFU.</description>
