2. Consider the source
You always know that some bullshit is imminent whenever Pat Robertson's face is on the screen.

3. A bit more on Luke Otterstad...
...he's with a group called Church of the Divide, and has a long history of protesting/harassing LGBT people in the Sacramento/Davis area:

4. There is such a thing as minority rights. These right wing "christians" are the
ones trying to dictate the personal lives of others, whereas same sex marriage has no real affect on them. To paraphrase Jefferson, "it neither picks their pockets nor breaks their leg." It just hurts their "christian" feelings.

got. True Christianity which this is not, is about accpetance tolerance and kindness no judgment, onl the humble will inherit the earth according to their bible. It's why Anne Rice left, because these folks are phoney.

6. there are some things more important that the right of people
to vote on it. do they want to set the precedent that would possibly lead to a bunch of people to vote that no christians will be allowed to hold office in this country. Or to vote that all jews must be expelled from our borders. Or maybe if there is a famine or plague we will all get together and vote that people can only have one child. Bet that would get their goat.

7. If marriage is so freakin' sacred, ban divorce.
Heterosexuals have done more to destroy the family and the institution of marriage than and homosexual couple ever could.

8. thanks..I did take my bp pill
good thing too. Where were these people when the voters were usurped in 2000 when SCOTUS stopped the counting in my state and selected Bush as the winner? Now they know how we feel. But of course they would be all to happy with a theocratic dictatorship. Get it straight Robertson..this is not a theocracy. We have a Constitution we adhere to that states equal protection is a right for everyone...regardless of your petty need to demean them.

Please God..deliver us from hypocrisy. Those who are quiet about killing innocent people on foreign shores and preach intolerance. Take the plank out of your own eye Pat.

9. What's the point in going to the polls?

Yeah right, Where were these assholes back in 2000 when the Supreme Court over turned the Presidential election and put "Shit for brains" in the White House?

10. Lying about human nature....
... like the Gay is a disease? Can be "cured"?

And they STILL have to prove what the "serious threat" of gay marriage is to hetero marriage.

What's the treat? Spell it out. The same threat as mixed race marriage?

11. So they say, "Marriage is between one man and one woman."
In his infinite holy wisdom, King Solomon will now weigh in with his view.

13. Perhaps because US post offices deliver messages faster and more efficiently?
And six days a week instead of one...

;)
