Im just curious what you think.

Personally I am against gay "marriages" but not against gay relationships [img]smile.gif[/img] Im not a repug but am a Conservative. I understand where some of the people are coming from and what they are trying to prevent. I also believe that they are trying to maintain the greater good as they see it.
MagiK - could you expand on these deeper issues and what the Repubs are trying to prevent? I would be very interested in hearing what they are. I agree that it is more than just simple bigotry. Disapproval or a moral objection to homosexuality (or any other sexual immorality) is not the same as being bigoted towards it.

So I would like to know what other issues are involved and how they affect the Repub (or Conservative) POV.
