Also I said "in my opinion" for a reason, I did not state it as a fact because I'm aware that it's just my opinion. But I guess I just don't know what family values are. Since the majority of marriages end in divorce is that a family value, how about all of the parent's out there that let their kids do whatever they want and dress however they want, those values? I know not every family is like that but I don't know one of my friends who doesn't have some issue with their family that I definitely don't think should be considered a value, such as the parents kicking them out of the house, or not giving a crap about how they do in school or neglecting to pay college application fees. And what is the definition of family. Is it two parents of the opposite sex and some kids? So then single parent's must not be families, and I can't imagine what you would consider step families, does it fit the definition to have two sets of parents?

In Iowa those people voted those "crazy liberals" into office, they put them there which means they trusted them to make decisions for their state. Also I don't know if you've ever picked up a paper but the Californian Supreme Court has already voted to uphold the Prop 8 vote. It might be changed one day, but for right now the people are getting what they want.

So your facts are a little wrong, I've never watched MTV in my life and I'm in the process of educating myself at a private University that I chose out of the 18 colleges I was accepted to, what are you doing out of curiosity?

Oh and telling gay people to stay away from churches (there are gay pastors you know) and kids (which is just ridiculous, should the gay kids stay away from kids as well?) is discrimination, just like telling black people to sit in the back of the bus.
Ok, well I'm not gonna sit here and waste my time arguing. I have already stated my view on this issue, so its whatever. I will quickly reply to several of your points that I have put in bold. I will list my replies in the order you wrote yours.

-Slamming liberals means I am conservative? Many democrats slam liberals as well.

-"In your opinion"... fair enough, and in my opinion I think your views on the issue have been corrupted by media. And you are totally missing my point, I never made an argument on who would make better parents. My argument is that it corrupts a moral "keystone" of what made up our countries views.

-Did Iowa vote for these judges, or were they appointed? (I honestly don't know, I am not familiar with their state law). Either way, even if the people elected these liberals, it doesn't make everything they do right. So using that logic, everything Bush did was fine, because we as people elected him and trusted him. That argument just doesn't make sense.

-My facts are wrong? No, they aren't. Its not that it "might be changed one day", it WILL be changed SOON, and against the voter's will.

-Well I appreciate you taking some interest in what I do. I am a Politcal Science major at Missouri State University. And I am taking journalism as a minor. I graduated high school from a private high school, which in my opinion gave me a really good education, much better than what the public schools offer. Now you curiosity is at ease

-Telling gays to stay away from our kids and churches is NOT discrimination. This is a country with free religion, and these religions are allowed to reject homosexuality, its called the bill of rights. And if someone want to raise their kids to be Christian and out of the grasp of the homosexual agenda, they have a right to do that.

All for now...
