How can Bush pass a law against gays? He has one vote just like you and me. If we are truly "in modern times" now, then why did 19 states just pass legislation banning gay marriage? Or maybe the majority of Americans don't agree with your definition of "modern".

I meant if gay marriage is legalized. What I meant by modern is people do what they want, even if there is a law against it.

One thing you can take from this poll is you can tell that this forum leans way to the left.............

I'd second that. Give everyone legal civil unions and then let them call their kind of relationship what they will.

That certainly isn't God's doing. Ever read the Old Testament?

Not everyone believes in the same God you do, regardless of whether or not they have read the Old Testament. So yes, it could just as well be God's doing.

Well, you may be right. People who wear toques are a little "different".
