    That’s why “THE REV”, a preacher who supports gay marriage…

  2. BlueShreveport says:

    Brian Brown looks like a fat version of the gay preacher Ted Haggard.

  3. SkullOfYorick says:

    Brian Brown looks gay.

    pat what was the ruin of the holy roman empire? – at one time polygamy was the norm – seems marriage has already been redefined

  5. fanagot says:

    The NOM has been created specifically for the purpose of denying civil rights to same sex couples. There’re no other activities going on in this hate group. The more gay marriage is accepted in society, the more NOM will fade into oblivion.

  6. fanagot says:

    In 50 years time, the people who’ve been resisting to these social changes, will feature on the pages of the history of bigotry.

  7. beegbolt says:

    “Traditionalists” such as Mr. Brown here, don’t accept the fact that humanity and culture constantely evolves. The institution of marriage in America has been drastically changing in the last 100 years, not to mention other cultural ways of living. For instance, it was unheard of, only 100 years ago, that a woman could vote! Divorce was never heard of in these “civilizations that have collapsed because of homosexuality”…. We’re not living in a fairy tale here….we’re livin in modern culture.

    IT’S GREAT THAT SHARPTON COULD TAKE SOME TIME OFF FROM BEING A THIEF, A LIAR AND A TAX DODGER TO DISCUSS A MORAL ISSUE……

  9. MRBBJC says:

    Brian Brown is an insensitive jerk who cannot defend his own cause. If they are protective of the santity of marriage they should worry about divorce. But no, that would affect them so no way. Fuck you bigots!

    New Jersey is facing money woes? Is that because Chris Christie is eating the state into bankruptcy? I hope he runs in 2013, but not for governor. He just needs to run. A lot.

    Well said/

    @AntonBatey I know. I was bringing up the fact that the ”definition of marriage” at the time of the founding of the country has already been changed. You had to go to court and petition a judge to get divorced.

    Not everyone in America is religious.

    lol

    2 – Marriage was instituted by God himself for the purpose of preventing the promiscuous intercourse of the sexes, for promoting domestic felicity,and for securing the maintenance and education of children.

    Marriage has already be redefined. Remember the ”til death do us part?”

    1 – 1828 Websters Dictionary

    MAR’RIAGE, n. [L.mas, maris.] The act of uniting a man and woman for life; wedlock; the legal union of a man and woman for life. Marriage is a contract both civil and religious, by which the parties engage to live together in mutual affection and fidelity, till death shall separate them.

  16. jfsfrnd says:

    Marriage is the right to marry the person of your choice – two people marrying. This has been set by Supreme Court decisions.

  17. jfsfrnd says:

    Redefine marriage – like allowing no fault divorce? Why don’t your religious hypocrits go pray to your God for forgiveness? Jesus said no divorce – remember? He said nothing about same sex reltionships or same sex marriage.
