[QUOTE]Originally posted by SeekingFreedom: [QB] [b]i believe that you believe this, but you made value judgments which i pointed out.[/b] Lol, Glass, I think I remember owning up to it as well. I think the problem is that we have lumped two seperate discussions together. Whether homosexuality is right or wrong and whether they should be alowed to have the civil union recognized as on par with traditional marriage. On the first, I fully agree and accept that it is a value based judgement call. If you believe it's a sin (under whatever religion you care to use) then you're against it. If you feel it's got nothing to do with right and wrong and it's just a preference then you're more than likely for it or at least not against anyone choosing it. I'm against homosexuality on principle due largely to my religious beliefs. I don't deny that in the least. However, I do have several gay friends and a gay uncle whom I care for just the same. They understand that I disagree with the choice but respect them anyways. I disagree with smoking. That doesn't mean I want all smokers to be cast out of our society. I disagree with their choice, but as long as it's legal it's still their choice. My friends that smoke simply respect me enough not to smoke around me. Mutual respect. The second is an entirely different matter for the reasons I've already outlined. It doesn't have to be a value based call if one believes that it will be harmful to the society in and of itself.
