[TheRealThing]

I don't expect the bishops to change their mind, I was just stating that their parishioners are against them on this issue, for the most part. This still goes back to the fact that the bible, nor the roman catholic church is the rule of the voting public. What is funny is, that you Christians don't even count the catholic church as anything other than a non christian cult. It's kind of the same as the bootleggers and the church siding with each other on an alcohol vote. The Christians don't really care if the bootleggers are peddling stuff they disagree with, the important thing is that they are voting the same way as the church. Nothing on these two topics are covered under the Constitution, therefore the voting public will make the decision. I know you are a Christian, but aside from that, what don't you get about the gay couple being treated equal to other couples? The constitution doesn't define marriage, as never should. All couples should be treated equal, regardless of your christian stance. As I said, we are not a theocracy. Surely you can see that all people should be treated equal, even under clouded eyes?

My argument was presented clearly. The constitution is not up for redefinition or re-ratification and, God's law is clearly outside of man's voting privileges.
