10 Reasons Why Gay Marriage is Wrong
01) Being gay is not natural. Real Americans always reject unnatural things like eyeglasses, polyester, and air conditioning.
02) Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay, in the same way that hanging around tall people will make you tall.
03) Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy behavior. People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has legal standing and can sign a marriage contract.
04) Straight marriage has been around a long time and hasn't changed at all; women are still property, blacks still can't marry whites, and divorce is still illegal.
05) Straight marriage will be less meaningful if gay marriage were allowed; the sanctity of Britany Spears' 55-hour just-for-fun marriage would be destroyed.
06) Straight marriages are valid because they produce children. Gay couples, infertile couples, and old people shouldn't be allowed to marry because our orphanages aren't full yet, and the world needs more children.
07) Obviously gay parents will raise gay children, since straight parents only raise straight children.
08) Gay marriage is not supported by religion. In a theocracy like ours, the values of one religion are imposed on the entire country. That's why we have only one religion in America.
09) Children can never succeed without a male and a female role model at home. That's why we as a society expressly forbid single parents to raise children.
10) Gay marriage will change the foundation of society; we could never adapt to new social norms. Just like we haven't adapted to cars, the service-sector economy, or longer life spans.

Hey God,
What up?? I was in the LSAT coaching class last night when you called. Heard your message. You sounded good.
So you moved again..hope it was a smooth move. I dug my own grave this morning...went to one of my committee member's office just to say hi. Take it from me..BAD MOVE. She asked me how dissertation was going and God (I mean you) knows it is pretty static as of today:( Ahhaa...life...
Take it easy:)
Love

ILA! You are not supposed to be shooting yourself. I have another friend who is trying to tempt me to leave the phd program so we can travel the world as bums. (I can do that more easily WITH a phd!) I have two members on my committee (went from a full three to one last summer/early fall - two of my people left the University - aaargh!), still need an outside member...maybe on more inside member just cuz of my areas....oh so much To Do!
The move was smooth, thanks. Is your class going well? Hope so. Happy Spring!
Steph...GOD...you must finish the PhD. I know it is easier said than done but you totally have to finish it and then maybe someday, I will join you two in travelling the world. We must go to Aalborg on our tour. Above all things, Prinsen Hotel has a jacket that belongs to me and picking up loose threads is always elevating :)
Hey Steph,
I got your house worming gift. Thanks a ton:) I remember writing to you and telling you that I got it about a week ago but I must have been dreaming. I do a lot of that these days. The gifts were great. Made me think of all the times you were my knight in shining armor.
Hope you are having a good time. It is a beautiful day here in Columbus. I love spring. YEEE for spring
Ila
