[Rhodes22-list] Jesusland.

[Steve]

Marrage record, Stan.  Lets see, the liberal want to
let gays get married.  That not a marrage.  And you
can't redefined marrage to suit your own needs. 
Marrage is between a Man & a Women.  What's next for
the liberals - marrage between a Man or Women and an
animal ?????????  Surely the liberals don't want to
descrimiate against some Man & his dog:-)

Thank God we don't allow that in the south!!!!!!!!
