I think Mrs. Patrick Campbell got it right: "My dear, I don't care what they do, so long as they don't do it in the street and frighten the horses.";)

Re: Same Sex Marriages.
 
I have been reflecting a great deal recently on the nature of love and have come to the conclusion that what any two people share, physically or in any other way, is perfectly natural if they are both happy with it. There are no limits to the way love can be expressed and gender (I prefer this word to "sex" when distinguishing the differences between male and female, as it is less confusing) makes no difference, in any way. The fundamental thing is respect for a partner and genuine feelings in their regard.

If there is a genuine shift in consciousness among the "masses" then it is right that the laws of the land reflect the thoughts of the people. We have all become so suspicious of the motives of our politicians that their role in this respect has become weakened and in the end we all lose out because of such a loss of faith. It limits progress.

Nor is it a sin ... or a crime. You seem to be real uptight about the drug thing ... smoke a couple of doobies; listen to some Brewer and Shipley; and chill out.

Today news came out about an advert put up by an Anglican Christian Organisation being banned from buses in London

Transport for London bans 'anti-gay' adverts - Channel 4 News

Oh and by the way I hav'nt smoked cannabis for about 10 years!:alright:

Live and let live Is what I say on this subject.

Kestrelx-- I don't see what drugs has to do with this subject. Just seems a little like you are trying to provoke these guys.

Think your right Restless, then he goes sulky and throws his teddy out the pram, when he gets put firmly in his place, ravages of earlier habits, sad really

Good grief, if playing with it means I'm homosexual then I've been gay since about the age of ten & I imagine, so have most other men.

Barack Obama's support for gay marriage has guaranteed it will be a big issue in the forthcoming election.

Hopefully it will show up the narrow mindedness and bigotry of those opposed to it, and will bring equality that little bit closer.

I don't think it will, it is a cynical ploy to catch votes...and I'm sure that many americans will see through his abysmal opportunism.

It seems Barack ain't quite as popular as he once was, seems to be panicking somewhat

But his likely opponent Romney can't even get the support of all the Republicans. Obama will be re-elected.

He might not go down too well in the bible belt with his gay marriage comments, but I can't see him losing any sleep about that!
