    Fightthetheocracy...pa-leeze

    By your reasoning, only people in the armed forces should decide when to fight, etc. Poppycock. If a guy wants to marry his sister (or his dog for that matter) it doesn't affect me either, but pa-leeze. Or if a guy in another state murders another person it doesn't affect me either, but pa-leeze. You need to get your arguments in order. Marriage has always been defined as between a man and a woman. Libs such as yourself want to change that. Who's sticking who's nose in who's bedroom by wanting to change the status quo? There are profound implications throughout society if marriage is redefined (not just between the 2 getting married). And you've yet to answer whether an 8 1/2 month old in the womb is a worthless piece of tissue or a person.
