I guess I didn't get the liberal conspiracy note when I moved out here 
and decided to reside in Wake Forest instead of the left-wing ideologue 
containment area known as Chapel Hill.

The article you linked too makes no sense, and I don't understand how 
libertarian ideals (which to me has been defined as small 
government/social liberal) would be to prevent a 'marriage' between any 
two individuals.

Personally I like the atwoodkansas.com thing that I read earlier in the 
week (was surprised it wasn't discussed at all).   They've since 
changed the page (after their hometown web-master wrote a heartfelt 
'disavowing' of his home town on the recent Kansas 'marriage' amendment 
vote.

Lawrence, KS could be called the Chapel Hill of KS)

Personally I like the other passages in the bible that are in the same 
chapter as the one the others use to say god was against it.

Personally I could care less what other people want to do at their 
home, or with someone else who wants to do it with them.   Not quite 
sure where all the hate is coming from but I've been told over the 
years that before I was born there were people waving the bible around 
saying similar passages said that people with different skin color than 
mine shouldn't be able to vote either.

I think men & women have done enough to destroy marriage that if two 
men or two women want to do something with it they're not going to hurt 
it anymore.   When someone goes 'holy cow, you've been married for 15 
years?  that's a long time these days' and the most common form of 
divorce I've run into with people I know wasn't because a gay person 
caused them to breakup, usually it is selfishness, or adultery or some 
other man/woman heterosexual thing.
