But its NOT fear of gays its this stupid fear like this last person was saying "if this changes, everything will change" same goes for public health care. I have now met American's who ACTUALLY don't want it because they are TERRRRRRIFIED of Socialist values because, god forbid!! that might be mean your communist! hahaha
People in general are ignorant, they know little of the rest of the world and they are TERRIFIED of anything different or they don't understand, so if the opiate of the masses suggests something is wrong well lets shut it DOWN!
And yes I agree with the European, the Church and State are getting closer which is sending America into a new dark age and working backwards in a horrific land slide no one is aware of.

If you think that creating same sex marriage won't encourage other groups to push for polygamy etc., you're crazy. Why wouldn't they say, "If gays have the right to marry, then our definition of marriage is our right too"? US law, as far as I know, has always defined marriage as between one man and one woman, with the other examples I have mentioned never being permitted. Why bother redefining marriage in the US when we have nothing to gain and everything to lose by it?
Non-Americans love to think they know us well and that we're ignoramuses, and they hate it when Americans like myself tell them that their preconceived notions about us are complete nonsense. I know this from past experience.
