This is a very interesting and debatable conversation of ideas, I do also believe that people should be free to make their own choices and that we have faith that they make the correct choice for themselves and for others.

Just a simple — Walk, talk, and work like Jesus. As simple as this phrase — is the way to reaching unity not only in America but of the world.

The recent vote in CA was interesting, but probably reflects the mood nationwide–after all CA is deemed to be a somewhat liberal state, say as apposed to Kansas or Mississippi where I live. I’m a retired history teacher and I always understood the founding fathers were christians and only opposed the establishment of a official state religion–I know that was their intention. The Church of England was the official church in England and they wanted no part of that in this country. They were NOT against religion and its influence in government–that view point is just an attempt to rewrite history to conform to contemporary values.

@Asbestos: Well, that’s the point … no one has a right to choose to deny others’ Constitutionally-guaranteed rights.

Why does it seem a Christian’s armor can also become their sword?

I agree with Asbestos Survey people have to make their own choice and they are entitled to it. Even if we feel its the wrong one.

It may be the correct decision or it may be the wrong decision, but it is a choice the people are entitled to make.

@Melissa: There was no talk about eliminating tax exemptions for 503C3 organizations from the opponents of Prop. 8, but those pushing the Prop. played upon the fears of the public by suggesting that such tax consequences might come about. In reality, that did not happen when the Calif. Supreme Court affirmed the right of all persons to marry irrespective of gender and will not happen when that Court strikes down Prop. 8, as it will be compelled to do.

As for adoption agencies, they may not discriminate if they are business establishments, as that term is utilized in the Unruh Act which prohibits discrimination on the basis of an immutable characteristic, e.g., gender.
