Agree, that's my point. My opinion is my opinion...that's it. It doesn't infringe on anyone's rights.

don't disagree with that at all.

There's that poor comparison so often used by progressives...nothing to do with one another. So let the owners make this bad decision not to serve gays if they so choose...if the overwhelming number of folks disagree with that point of view like so many insist they will, problem solved, they are out of business. like Chic-fil-A

2 (both in my family) what does that have to do with anything? If I interviewed 1000 men that say they were born preferring the company of young men, would you buy it? Christian's beliefs about homosexuality is based upon the Bible, not the opinions of homosexuals.

Bottom line is this...I couldn't care less what you or westend or anyone else thinks about whether gays are born that way or not and I'm sure you don't care what I think about it. My only concern is that liberals try to use this born that way theory to insist someone's rights are infringed on them when they don't get a cake baked for them by someone that doesn't want to because of their religious beliefs...and the sueing begins. Do you agree they should have to?

I'm sure I know just as much about it as you do...so why don't you stop. The only difference is my opinion carries no legislation that says someone must do something that goes against their beliefs. I am GUESSING that your liberal progressive opinion would.

You would guess, guess being the key word. So on the basis of a guess, progressives want to force laws on folks. I, for one, am pleased to see the pushback...folks have rights to their religious beliefs.

Not sure...how do you explain homosexuals that go straight?

lol...boom.

Sure they would...happens all the time.

Try Mississippi next.

Being a minority and being homosexual have nothing to do with one another. One is who you are and the other is a lifestyle choice...to equate the two is backward.

Dangerous is saying nothing and allowing progressives to have their way.

This bill simply shows that Mississippi is less backward than most states...poor and uneducated does not make a state "backward". I grew up in the state and you obviously know nothing about it...other than test scores. If I own a business and choose not to bake a cake or perform a wedding for a gay couple, I should be able to. I am not infringing on anyone's rights, they are free to find somewhere else to do business. Your "well-established" support of gay marriage is bogus...just google how the voting has gone in states. By the way, never saw anyone in a KKK robe until I moved from MS to Texas...would I be so silly as to brand everyone here backward because of that, no.

Yes and Yes.

That's where you are wrong...we know the earth cools and the earth warms...it is currently in a warming trend by a few degrees. You are allowing folks that take a snapshot of the earth's cycle and say we have enough information to call it a disaster. Guess what comes with that disaster...folks that must step in and control the energy industry for our own good...hmmm. Stop claiming like Al Gore that the debate is over and the earth's warming is caused by man when we have a miniscule slice of time to go by. We (the US) are doing what we can to clean up the environment...anyone that works in the industry can see that...but to say without a doubt that global warming is manmade is wrong. I would be willing to bet I have read many of the same articles you have on this (well informed)...I just happen to see the agenda many have that will grab more power for them to regulate the energy industry so we can supposedly all avoid disaster, you don't.

No matter how much it costs.

No worries...not offended at all...you can't no matter how hard you try. It's amazing that you can tell by a few posts how much research I have done on global warming...I bet if I had agreed with you, I would be getting an A+ for my research efforts. See where I'm going...well informed to some simply means they agree with me.

lol...there it is...I don't agree with your point, so I must be uninformed. Is any of the evidence you site from the same sources that were caught red-handed skewing the evidence that backed up man-made global warming? I'm still looking for an answer on the global cooling / ice-age that never occurred...with so much evidence to back up that it would. Someone may be uninformed here, but I don't think it's me.

Gotta keep their voters warm and dry.

Wow...one article, from the "conservative" Bloomburg . Let me ask you a question...were all the scientists in the 70s that proclaimed global cooling was going to be an epidemic wrong? They had lots of data to back up their theories as well...and we were pumping out much more air pollution back then...should have been a warming heyday. All the evidence was there...only it didn't happen.

Punished by who, the fed gov...the same folks that are doing billions in trade with countries that are boiling out more air pollution than we ever dreamed about. The air is clean here now (just ask any farmer that has to pay for sulfur now) If anyone really thinks global warming is man made, you would be more effective holding your picket sign up in China, North Korea or Russia. Oh, and you better figure out how to cork those volcanos...or punish them.

Good deal...NC, Mississippi and now this. Starting to see some pushback on this kind of crap.
