Correct.
Isn't there something written like - Judge not lest ye be judged?
RJ and WF. I'm not judging anyone. Unless you are arguing that having moral beliefs means I am automatically judging anyone who doesn't share or follow my moral beliefs. There is only one person I know capable of judging others and he walked the earth 2000 years ago. I'm not in the practicie of judging others or pretending to know how he would judge others.
I don't have the ability to know everything someone else is going through or all of the factors which lead them to make certain decisions. I might not like something someone does and I might tell them that I don't like it but I wouldn't dare judge them as a person for their action. That's not my place and it's not yours either.
Typical RW BS to justify their position by bringing in beastiality. You are pathetic.
So do you Rj. Would you be okay with a law allowing men to marry baboons? Why not? Because you have a standard of behavior (moral) that you enforce upon others. Every law we have does this or chooses not to.
So if your morals have religious grounding they can't be used in forming laws but if your morals don't come from religion they are good to go? That can't be what you are trying to say but that's what it comes off as.
Also people without religion still have different moral systems. How do you pick which moral system is best for making laws?
I swear y'all don't read my posts. Show me once where i have stated that I am voting for this ammendment or have advocated for others to vote for this ammendment.
ETA: Also WF passing a law against a certain behavior is not equivalent to judging someone for that behavior. At least not in the sense of judging I thought we were talking about. If it was equivalent then to be a judgement free society would mean having no laws.
Not voting at all is just as bad as voting for it unless you are keeper
I am a north carolina voter. I believe homosexuality is a sin. I am not married. I am not going to vote for this ammendment because it's redundant and I'm lazy. Convince me to go vote against it without calling me a bigot, an idiot, a homosexual, or insinuating that my existence makes you want to vomit. Do not reference the civil rights movement, the religious right, or abortion. Do not speak in absolutes, unless you are a Sith Lord. Go.
The state has a law defining marriage as a heterosexual union, but the amendment's supporters say changing social tides will make it likely that gay couples married in New York will move to North Carolina and seek legal rights.
"They're going to bring with them their same-sex marriages," said Rep. Paul Stam, an Apex Republican and House majority leader. "They're going to want to get divorced" and have custody issues decided, he said. "We're not equipped to handle that."
