More and more people want to tell more and more people how tolive life every day.
But talking doesn't do much until a law is passed.
Last summer, Bush said his lawyers were looking for ways to makesure the prospect of legal marriage would never be extended to gaycouples.
Later this year, several radio talk show hosts criticized BallState alumnus and late-night personality David Letterman for havinga child out of wedlock.
The battle over the definition of marriage is brewing, and maybegin to boil over soon. Conservative purists say only a man and awoman can be joined in marriage. Others say it exists to connecttwo people spiritually, regardless of gender.
Gay couples want to be married. More and more straight couples,like Letterman, are living outside the binds of marriage,disregarding a right denied to so many people who are clamoring forit.
The way people live their lives — whether it is having achild out of wedlock or deciding to spend their lives with someoneof the same gender — is not up to the general public or thegovernment to decide. There is no "right way" to live. There isonly the way the majority want to make people live.
It comes down to the way a person wants to live his life. If asame-sex couple claims to be married, it has little to no effect ontheir straight neighbors.
Americans are intelligent enough to decide their own morals.They don't need the government to do it for them. Critics are freeto say what they want about it, but their time would be much betterspent examining issues that really do affect everyone.
Let people live the way they want to live.
