i have a gay friend and hes actually the coolest guy ive ever met. not to mention he is a chick magnet. but hes 100% gay. oh well, you can meet chicks through gay people :thumbup:
i dunno, just more laid back, hes cool about everything. as long as they dont rub it in my face that they are gay, im totally cool.

My view on this is very simple and clear.
I do not think the Government should have any control over weather or not a Man can marry another Man.
However, I do not believe it should be an obligation that the Priest has to marry them. Leave it up to the Priest or whomever marries them as to weather or not *he* wants to be a part of that.
If they are fine with it, then great, let them be married. If that particular Priest doesn't want to marry the two together, for *whatever* reason (including because it's same-sex), due to their religious beliefs, then so be it as well; go find another Priest that will.
Simple.
A Government mandating that it is either legal or illegal is discrimination either of the Gay Man or Woman who wants to be married to one another, or to the Priest for making him go against his religious beliefs to marry the two together.

I believe that if a person loves somebody they should marry that person. Doesn't matter what sex, age, color, religion, etc, etc, etc they are. If people cannot accept gays and lesbians showing affection in public then every couple should get arrested for holding hands in public. Heck that would put almost 70% of America behinds bars.
