Heh thanks ;)

Just to clarify though (I think this argument is along the lines of politics/religion/etc - no one ever changes their viewpoint)... Thought I'd state my case though since people seem to think I'm 'wrong' ;)

   * I am 100% for equal rights for all.
   * I would rather they call it something else
     we have waiter and waitress to determine the sex, why not marriage and <insert_other_word_here>?
   * I don't feel strongly enough about it to actually vote on it - either way.
   * If I was gay, I wouldn't really care enough about it either to push for a change from the status quo.
     IMHO There are more important things that need fixing in the world.

If people truly think it's a cause worth fighting for, then go for it. Hope it brings them happiness.

I'm not wrong though, I'm just a person with an opinion.

It's funny how technical people reason about social issues the same way we do about technology. Maybe marriage is the wrong thing to call it, but unfortunately insisting in that detail places you in a very bad company: people for what that's not a matter of names, that doesn't want equal rights and many of them in fact would hang homosexuals if they could.

BTW, congratulations for the video!

Your text stretched out the screen. :-( (EDIT: Thanks!)

I disagree with you, but I'm sure you don't want this to turn into a debate. I care more that you've created a great service, which you have. However: if you weren't allowed to marry the person you were in love with, I think you'd feel differently. You're married right now, no? Wouldn't it suck if you'd been banned from marrying her?

In his defense, he doesn't seem to care if they're married, he'd just prefer it was called something else.

I campaigned against 8 in my area, but I think that if we're going to argue against its supporters, we ought to at least argue against what they're actually saying. :-)

Yeah, and there's a separate argument for that, but this isn't the place to argue it. This is the place to congratulate him on his incredible site.

He's dead wrong about a bunch of other stuff too..

But then, so's every great person, no?
