State lawmakers in Massachusetts, facing the possibility of personal liability for refusing to follow the state Constitution, have blinked, and voted to allow a voter-supported initiative that would define marriage in the state as between one man and one woman only to move forward.

It's just another step in the long process defined by the state Constitution to amend that document, but it is significant because of the imposition of "gay" marriages in that state – the first state to take such action – after the state Supreme Judicial Court determined they must be allowed.

Perhaps it is because disneydude knows that many conservatives love to spew hate.

I see that you're brand new to the forum. Have you visited the Rules section and become familiar with them? Your generalization has nothing to do with the poster's topic. Is there anything you want to add to the thread?

Doubt it, yet, you come here all high and mighty talking BS out your *** about conservatives having control over hating.........just how many rich people did you envy then hate today because they have something you don't? Or how many times did you cuss someone driving a SUV's today because you think it causes global warning?

No, because it's more fun this way.

None, I have pretty much everything I want.

I own an SUV, so I don't know what you're talking about there.

[Intransigent Atheist]

Really? Why is that?

 

[SixStringHero]

Don't worry too much.

As long as you don't go too over board on the insults, the MODS here are pretty good and fair.

 

[Stinger]

Really? Why is that?

Hmmm now where is that ignore button?

 

[Stinger]

Don't worry too much.

As long as you don't go too over board on the insults, the MODS here are pretty good and fair.

But not having anything worth reading to say is the quickest way to get ignored.

Speaking as someone from Massachusetts... this is idiotic.

Why should gays not be allowed to marry? Does it affect ANYONE else? Hundreds of gays have already been married in Massachusetts. Is it making anyone here feel any less holy?

I didn't think so. And if you think it has, I know a few psychiatrists.

The simple fact that the civil rights of a minority are being voted on is appalling. But I suppose that's the way our state constitution is written.

If you think marriage should be between a man and a woman... great. Don't marry someone of the same sex. But don't go imposing your beliefs on other people.

Well said...it is sad that the civil rights of a minority are being voted on.

That is and easy one DD becasue I believe marriage should remained defined as a union between a man and a woman............

And why is that?

 

[Thales]

And why is that?

Here comes the justification of insanity.

I predict "God", "Bible", and "Sin" will be used in the response. I'm calling it now.

Because some rich conservative men wrote it down in a book thousand years ago.

If this gets up for a vote, are there any polls suggesting whether the Mass. people will vote for it or not? I'm not sure they would, progressive as they are.

Still, this politicking is ruining the steps towards marriage equality that Massachusetts was so brave in taking. I'm disappointed in their lawmakers.
