I've approached some people with the question, Why John Kerry, even when you acknowlege that he's a lousy candidate? They reply "He's not George Bush. Anyone but Bush."
Well, Ralph Nader isn't George Bush. Michael Badnarik is not George Bush. Why not vote for them? Most reply, "Because they won't win." I thought the reason we vote was because we wanted the candidate with the closest ideals to ours to be elected. Not because we wanted to vote for the winning candidate. Responses? |

QUOTE(strice @ Oct 10 2004, 2:32 AM) most of what you wrote was rather in comprehensible but i'll try to answer to what i think you're saying. so you say that doing something that doesn't quite agree with the bible is discrimination? policies should not be based on such a silly book, considering the weight the founding fathers put upon the separation of church and state. Being gay is natural and is found in animals other than humans. also, nobody cares if people discriminate, it can't be really stopped. it's only a problem if the government that supposedly embodies liberty endorses it. sorry that i didnt read over my post. i know that being gay is natural. I was pointing out that banning gay marriages is not discrimination. The people are the ones who discriminate. look how it has evolved over the years, maybe one day it wont be there, but that is just how it is now, and throwing a fit over it seems kind of pointless to me, because i think he is doing the right thing..i say make things right, because making gay marriages legal just so people will not descriminate is not solving the problem, it is just making it more leniant |
