Re: Perhaps not in the physical sense. ßelals Girl Send a noteboard - 08/08/2010 06:46:56 AM
But it appears he is afraid of what the ramifications might be if homosexual marriage is legalized nationwide. Which is ridiculous, IMO.


Why? Unlike most people opposed to it, he's actually given thought out and reasoned arguments for why he thinks the way he does. Even if you think he's wrong, aren't his points worth adressing instead of being dismissed out of hand? He always extends his opponants the same courtesy.
