Or do you think that the stupid republicans and religious nuts will succeed in writing discrimination into the constitution?

*smiles*\n\nIt's possible. The east coast is a good starting ground. Be happy you're not living in Missouri.

No it will violate the United States Constitution and Civil Rights thats a big no no.You can separate race and gender.And I think what they are doing is illegal and out of bounds this not 1955 its 2006.

This would be the best answer to the Republican Party - that way they would quit being shameless liars and saying that they spoke to "GOD" and "God told them to do this or that"\n\nThough there is SUPPOSED to be a seperation of Church and State, they never seem to abide by that rule either

No it's not going to work. \nIt's scary when you think about judgment day.....

Yes, I would. \n\nI would be shocked if people wouldn't vote for someone just because of their religion. I hope they're at least willing to admit they're bigoted

In the long term, they'll gain full and equal rights. In the short term, they'll lose some battles.\n\nThe GOP was never serious about passing any amendment. Look how quickly the discussion dropped after the elections passed. There are some amendments passed in states, and there will be more. Eventually, they'll be struck down under the Full Faith & Credit clause, or some other constitutional provision.

You know, it's no wonder good Republicans and good Christians have a bad name with idiots like you asking idiotic questions like this.

Would that it were so.  Unfortunately, I think the religious right still wields an inordinate amount of sway in the United States and will continue to interfere with government's ability to deal with more pressing issues.

I agree its unthinkable.  \n\nI think most Americans will be abhorred at the thought.\n\nIf it happens, it will be motivated by ignorance of what free speech means.  And that will be the front.\n\nThe real battle would look kind of like the first:  State's Rights.

this is yet another pitiful attempt by the republican party to earn favor with gay men. who reads GQ? a few clueless straight guys and a bunch of homosexuals. this should make you laugh! the republican  party is littered with a bunch of latent homosexuals tiring to curry support after that whole gay marriage thing. \nhave the republicans really dropped so low that they must issue an article of such stupidity? that like the catholic priest stating they don't prefer altar boys!\ni guess that the GOP has new meaning.\nGROSS OLD PERVERTS!!!!!!!!

Iraq is just practice for the war they plan to start in America. Now that minorities have more combined votes, the neocons are trying to destroy the US Constitution so they can remain in power. Conservative Christians  and republicans only believe in a democratic republic as long as they are in power and they will destroy it to remain in power. For them, the Constitution is just a piece of paper.\n\n-------------------------------------------------\nwallsatla... -\nLincoln was President 150 years ago and is not relevant to the question. Nevertheless, Lincoln would detest Bush and the neocons - just as America's Founding Fathers would - just as Goldwater would. The Republican party of today is the Democratic party of yesterday - you know...the ones wearing sheets and burning crosses.

The First Amendment protects stupid opinions.

KKK is a good start and the NEO_CON"s are another, Skinheads are another, Confederates are another. Republicans in general. It is legal Racism of the rights's Christian Church, they do it in the name of God.

It sounds like a good idea. Here's the problem.\n\nUnlike at the time of formation, we as a nation are very polarized. There is a huge mass of people, often in the majority, that think it's acceptable to force majority religions on the minority, ok for the government to ignore the laws at will, and ok to discriminate against couples based on their gender.\n\nThe current constitution may be flawed, but given the level of hate and partisan brain-damage currently rampant in the US, it's scary to think of what else they might come up with.

No.  If pseudo-religious zealots so disapprove of gay marriage then they should probably abstain from marrying people of their same genders.  That's all the power they should have under the law or otherwise--the power to manage their own behavior and the behavior of the minor children.  Any further commitment by the federal government is an  unconstitutional involvement in organized religion.\n\nAnd by the way, I happen to be a straight man who believes in protecting privacy from religious posers.
