How would a church be forced to do anything? It would only allow religions that are not homophobic to marry their parishioners who are gay. Religious institutions are free to tell someone they won't marry them and laws cannot be passed to change that as that would be violating the first amendment, just as these anti-gay marriage laws violate the first amendment because they are telling non-homophobic churches that they can't marry same sex couples.

It's either that or force religious institutions to perform marriage ceremonies for unions that violate their religions. Or just don't let gay people get married, but taking that road would be basically impossible for our nation at this point even if the majority still wanted to. -----Original Message----- From: Sam [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, August 31, 2010 12:56 PM To: cf-community Subject: Re: interesting opinion piece on Beck and the teabagging party So why isn't that your fight. Fight to change the marriage license to civil union and it's done. Oddly enough that could be done easily bit what's the fun in that. With no opponents who do you get to brand as haters? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:326462 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
