Book Embargo

Has anyone told you that I have solved the gay marriage crisis? Yep. I did.
Everyone gets a civil union. This would encompass all government dealings (taxes, any death issues that come up, legitimacy, etc). If you want to further that by getting a “marriage” within your church, that is your option. Then the sacrement of marriage is clear (though what’s that about the USA divorce rate? 50%? right. that sure is sacred) and everyone is happy.

Obviously, not that simple. I personally don’t care who gets married to whom. Be good and safe and healthy and happy together, and go for it! Any combo works for me.

That said, there is an interesting post on Huckabee and his viewing of rights and civil rights, here. I was very proud of myself that very early on in the report about violence I thought, “what about Matt Shepherd in Wyoming? Doesn’t being beaten to death count as violence?” Interesting article. I especially liked the comment from the person from Denmark. Many good points.

If you believe in the rights to all to marry, please head over to White Knot.org. Here is some of their info.

A symbol of equality…
because everyone should be able to tie the knot.

The white knot represents your support of the rights of gays and lesbians to marry. Showing your support for this shows your belief in equal rights and non-discrimination for all people.

Thousands of white knots were distributed at Saturday’s rallies. Since you can’t carry a sign and chant everywhere you go, start wearing a white knot to show your support and continue the conversation. Join our mailing list to find out more. Keep this issue on the top of mind of everyone. We are working to get white knots manufactured. In the meantime, make you own.

Be kind to one another. We are all stuck on this one planet. And be kind to IT too.
