"...unlike neighboring states, which have overwhelmingly voted against same-sex marriage, the outcome in North Carolina is less than certain and is generating quite a controversy... The Tar Heel state is the only one in the Southeast that does not ban same-sex marriage in its state constitution. But Republicans, who now control the state legislature for the first time in 140 years, are hoping to change the situation."
http://www.christianpost.com/news/north-...I can't wait for the barrage of intolerant comments against people exercising their God given democratic rights to vote... a vote that could mean banning gay marriage in North Carolina. The first thing the liberals chant is that gay rights are being taken away... what rights? As accurately put by our Huey Newton... Gays never had the right to marry, because marriage was defined by thousands of years of tradition to mean one man and one woman. No rights are violated, unless you take into account the rights of traditional families being attacked for their God given rights and traditions.
When anyone supports tradition or their right to religious freedom, there always needs to be those with an agenda to destroy those values. If the homosexual community wants to have the freedoms to live the way they want to, I say all the more power to you... but when someone else's freedoms take away the religious rights that have been a standard and enjoyed for thousands of years... that is unconstitutional.
Sen Buck Newton Debates NC Gay Marriage Amendment Bill & Effort...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WDXtDi1u9...And as far as a religious right, there isn't an established historical religion that has demonstrated gay marriage... simply put marriage is between a man and a woman. Regardless how the political blows in these last few years in comparison to the total history of mankind... if it is change you want... I say you're too late!
Quit trying to redefine Biblical marriage...
get your own bible and your own god and your own definition!

The US State Department can point out countries that encroach on religious freedom, but it can't look itself in the mirror...
"State Dept. Chides Eight Countries on Religious Freedom... While Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton has issued previous reports on religious freedom, Tuesday's report represented the first time the Obama administration has published its list of the world's worst violators. "It is our core conviction that religious tolerance is one of the essential elements not only of a sustainable democracy but of a peaceful society that respects the rights and dignity of each individual," Clinton told reporters at a press briefing."
