This feels like I am opening a new can of worms... I see no reason why this should not be allowed. However, like it will ever happen, if there is to be a prayer, it should be more universal to address all of the religions. Since that is never going to happen, and other children would cause problems with the people who stand out during the prayer, doing away with it was all that could be done. All we need kids causing problems (guns in school?) with the other kids because their God is better or whatever.
Originally posted by sigma:There is no reason that something "so special" (as you say) should be reserved for heterosexual couples only, when there are millions of homosexual couples that are in the same loving relationships and even raising the same children.
Except certain laws prohibit children. Take Utah for example, since I am single, if my brother and his wife were killed somehow, I could not adopt my own brother's children because of me being single. Supposedly I wouldnt be able to provide them a good home because there is no wife in the picture. Granted there are loopholes around this too, dont adopt from a state run agency.
Originally posted by RGSOUNDF:I am gonna fess up and say that the militant gay ppl do annoy crap out of me, by constantly trying to prove that all straight men are potentially gay and all this BS.
None of the gay people I know try to force their homosexuality onto others. At most they might get extra friendly until they realise that you are straight.
And going off of this, there isnt anything wrong with heterosexuals trying to date or turn the homosexuals straight? Same way of thinking. Granted, a comeback could be, "Well just tell them your gay!" But that can be turned around as well. If he/she is bothering you with their advances, just tell them that your straight and not intrested.
Originally posted by Static: ok how about this... Why dont I agree with mike on this... if you want to do it then do it but keep that sh it away from me and no gay pride parades... if we dont get straight pride parades then no gay pride parades LOL
If you want one, plan one. I see no reason why a straight parade couldnt be planned. The city would most likely give you permission for it, and you would probably make the paper for doing it.
And, if you do it, make sure you tell me. I would so be for flying across to country to see it, mainly because to my knowledge there has never been a straight parade. You have to make sure you go all out though, band, baloons, parade, beer garden, etc.
