Tired of watching the feud


Given the tactics lately, the same sex marriage crowd is in danger of losing my support
I had held off commenting on the same-sex marriage thing because there isn't anything I can think of to say that I haven't said many, many times before.

Here's how I feel in a nutshell. Government should not give legal force to a religious sacrament. Which means rather than marriages and civil unions, it should all be civil unions ONLY as far as the government is concerned. As long as everyone involved is a consenting adult, that is where government supervision should begin and end. Now that also means that the civil unions goes further than same-sex marriage. It also has to include things like year marriages and group marriages.

Now, despite the efforts of comment spammers to talk about this, the only reason I am making noise now is because I do not like the fallout.

I don't care who you are, the same sex marriage issue isn't even in the same league with the civil rights movement. Stop trying to pretend otherwise.

There is absolutely no reason to damage Mormon church buildings.

And this mess with eHarmony. eHarmony is a privately held company. A user has no right to a service that they don't provide, any more than a customer has the right to demand that a vegetarian restaurant provide a cajun bbq pork special, or that the the local nursery provide marijuana cuttings, or that the neighborhood hardware store sell high explosives.

Somewhere, somehow we've moved from equal rights to special privilege and that is something I can not support.
