Almost done

Hard to believe somebody with Asperger's could do what I've done, but I've done it. Two more duties left- the breakfast/membership drive at St. Clare's on June 30th, and the *beginning* of the July meeting, and then I'm done. John Clare Council 15485 is finishing the first year with Star Council award, Columbian Award, and an active Food for Families program. And positive in the bank. I've birthed this baby, now to watch it grow!

That's great, Ted. I am re-examining my faith because of the inspiration I get from people like you. From a pragmatic point of view, faith can do wonders. I have to be honest and say that faith has provided motivation that is now lacking in my life. Congratulations for all you've achieved. Cut gays some slack and you will have something else to feel good about.

I do cut them some slack- I supported the civil unions law back in the day and due to the sad state of *heterosexual* marriage, I support its expansion.

My local parish has both Dignity and Courage chapters, and while I've yet to recruit a Knight from either I keep trying so that we can more closely support these ministries.

Equality is a good thing. Special interests getting special rights from government, not so much.

That to me is quite a bit of slack.

I just wish that they'd cut ME some slack. At least enough to raise my child without worrying about him getting hit on in grade school.

What I found most interesting in the last year though- was that I needed to have faith in myself.

I have to wonder if that is something that homosexuals are really looking for.

Yes. I agree with that entirely. Any right that a heterosexual has, a homosexual should have the same. Anything you wouldn't do to, say, an African American, you shouldn't do to a homosexual.

I'll agree with that. Which is why I utterly *disagree* with the government interfering in religious marriage. Civil unions would separate that, creating equality and eliminating the interference.

There's no need to discriminate against incestous relationships either.

Father claims 15 year old girl is capable of consent in Lesbian Rape Case

Father claims 15 year old girl from another family is capable of consent : I'm beginning to really like the change in Florida's government.  First they stop handing out welfare checks to junkies.  Now they are treating Lesbians under the same rules as Heterosexuals, gasp, what a concept!  Don't sign this petition unless you are FOR statutory rape of younger girls by predatory lesbians. How many 18 year old boys have been prosecuted for having sex with 16 year old women under "minors can't give consent"?    Special treatment for lesbians?  Please, no.

Call them what you like, Broken Families are still a TRAGEDY!

Yes, liberals value family , but not enough to recognize that a broken family is a tragedy. Divorce is actually worse than death as far as the grieving process goes- especially when there are children, custody battles, parental support, and alimony involved. And homosexuals raising children? That is tragic, not something to be celebrated. Maybe if we'd *recognize* that a broken family is a tragedy we would be more willing to say, pay taxes for WIC so that the single mother working a minimum wage job actually has the ability to choose life. Maybe we'd have more men willing to stick around and help raise the children they cause because the condom broke while they were stupidly using sex only for recreation. Maybe, just maybe, we'd be raising men instead of a generation of cowardly wimps who choose homosexuality and suicide over real life. Suffering and tragedy is valuable- but only if we recognize that it exists.
