I don't hate him either, I'm not a hating person, I've only hated two people in my life. I just find his attitude impossible to understand (that's my own shocked incomprehension!).<br /><br />I don't think there's anything wrong with not accepting others' religious beliefs, if they're plainly harmful and derogatory to other people for no good reason.

He's a product of his own generation and culture. My grandparents, if they were still alive, would have been shocked by openly gay couples, just as I'd bet the majority who have posted's grandparents would be. We just happen to be living in different times and have grown in our mentality towards those who are 'different,' whether that be race, creed, or sexual orientation. Unfortunately, others' religious beliefs are still not generally accepted by the masses.Bijouxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05788630004051883635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3467242994126386706.post-7602009260259491282012-06-23T20:26:35.492+01:002012-06-23T20:26:35.492+01:00:-) Somehow, I knew you'd want to know that.:-) Somehow, I knew you'd want to know that.Secret Agent Womanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07564690116156754219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3467242994126386706.post-86214380186194215642012-06-23T13:45:00.811+01:002012-06-23T13:45:00.811+01:00Myra - I wouldn't know about that.

Rick Santorum, a recent presidential candidate made a similar statement, suggesting it was a slippery slop from allowing gay marriage to allowing marriage with a dog. Riiiight.<br /><br />I don't know if you are aware of the misogynistic origins of the term "rule of thumb"? It refers to the width of the stick allowable to beat your wife (ie., the judge's thumb).
