Very encouraging to see that there are still some people who believe in morals and principles in Cali

Socialismsux: Sort of implies that those who do not agree with you have no morals

Be very careful not to give the keys to the kingdom to theocrats who would,if they could, dictate the way people live their lives.
This approach would be the American version of the Taliban.

Just curious-I wonder if the current flood of economic, weather, and social problems in California has caused a reevaluation of the gay marriage issue?

We knew there was a problem with easy mortgages, but we chose to ignore it-the result is obvious.

So many decisions lately were incorrect because we gave into political expediency. Now everybody is trying distance themselves from involvement in those decisions.

What will be the result of the decision on prop 8?

I can''t wait for the sociopaths'' twisted response to my open ended question.

If a union gives the couple rights then i think that a union is good enough for those who are gay and want to formalise/legalise their relation. Marriage is the very core of xhristianity and it would be wrong to legalise gay marriage.infact staright couples who cannot get married at a church do have civil unions, it doesnt make them less married than those who have a church wedding more especially if they are ethists. lets leave marriage to be defined as a union btwn a man and a woman and for the churches.

The very moment we start denying any rights to any group, the very rights we enjoy are at jeopardy. Life - Liberty - and the Pursuit of Happiness, or did Bush/Cheney put that one in the shredder too?

Homosexuals do not have a "right" to marry. Marriage is one man, one woman period. I am disgusted that this Geoffrey Farrow is concerned about the "few" in the pews who might be damaged instead of society in general.

This in-your-face, confrontational demand for forced acceptance of queer lifestyles will only create more hate and intolerance than they can handle. I will not accept marriage of queers and I am feeling more resentful the more they keep pushing.

They should live their lives quietly and be thankful every minute they are able to do that. If this marriage law is left on the books, another societal divide will bring more problems than they can imagine. This country is turning into an abyss of despair for the masses and the result is predictably civil unrest and chaos.

Any law that attempts to force citizens to accept something as egregiously offensive and repugnant as same gender marriage, will only fan the flames of social resistance.

Proposition 8 must pass or this issue will lead to more problems than one can imagine.
