		<description>When will this idiots figure out that government is secular or at least should attempt to be?  You shouldn&#039;t define a law based on your religious or personal preference.

I don&#039;t see why they are so obsessed with the idea of two people of the same sex getting married.  If the preservation of the sanctity of marriage is of utmost important, they should instead focus on the absurd level of divorce we have in this country.  And if we want to make it a local issue, why not promote marriage in the black community.  I&#039;ve been to sermons at Mt. Airy and a few times at St. Matthews, never ever, have I heard the good pastors promote marriage between a man and woman.  I grew up in the projects and the majority of my neighbors were single mothers who had deadbeat fathers for their kids.  Do something about that shit first before you knock someone else for wanting to engage in a loving, loyal, union.</description>
