I used to live in NC, but while I was there, I was not registered to vote.

Love it, love it, love it!

I really hope it doesn't pass, but the sad thing is, North Carolina is the only state that hasn't amended it's constitution to make gay marriage illegal. What a depressing thought.

I don't have a copy of the amendent, but when a group of Southern Baptist ministers speaks out against a law protecting marriage, it must be pretty bad.

It angers me that people who claim to love are so full of anger, resentment, hatred, and intolerance. It is completely NOT what the faith is supposed to be about.

I've had Christian friends end their friendships with me when I stopped hiding my sexuality. I got the "when you repent we can be friends" bullshit line. If I have to be a certain way for you to be my friend, we were never friends to begin with.

I don't understand the fight against people loving and marrying people. I'm a huge fan of gay marriage. Most of my friends are gay. I want them to get married! And I'm glad that I live in a state that currently allows gay marriage!

Prevention of anyone achieving their ideal true happiness is narrow minded. One thing I have an urge to add is that I find it fascinating how much material from various religions didn't originally exist until a certain turn of events. For example (not to pick on but it's relevent to the topic I believe) Christmas for that matter 'the birth of Jesus' wasn't celebrated until around the middle ages. Many scholars have noted that the idea of Christmas stims off from a Pagan holiday known as Yule (Saturnalia also might have had an influence on this day). Many tradiditions (such as the yule log, yule singing, and a mistletoe being hung) were adapted into the Christmas celebration. Some scholars believe this may have been to help earlier Christians to convert many pagans over to Christianity. The story of Adam and Eve is another example. Various scholars believe the story originated from the end of Nordic mythology, the end of time they knew as Ragnarok. This is the final battle between the forces of order and chaos, when everything dies off in a chain of cataclysmic events. From the aftermath the World tree is left, and from it sprout 2 beings a man and a woman. Scholars believe this end was adapted to be the beginning of Christianity's story of how life began, amazingly it ties in around the times of the crusades when there were numerous ways they found to try and convert many pagans over to Christianity, it truely is fascinating. I'm no scholar and I got a little off topic here. What I'm getting at is my personal view on that 'law' in the old testement might have been adapted to suit a common goal the Empire had at that time while they continued to gain dominance. Just a theory though and I haven't met many followers of the religion who honestly stop to think about these discoveries made. I find that truely sad.
