No, I'm arguing that "family" is a meanignless and stupid concept, and "marriage" even more so.

Why, I was calling for no compensation for everybody. You seem to think there should be some.
I read Michael Moore's site and generally enjoy it. "Enjoy" doesn't mean the same thing as agree, however, and something has struck me in my reading. What is Mike Moore so pissed off about? The guy's pissed off about the war in Iraq, that's for sure. But... But... He keeps posting articles and links to articles about what
i am just stepping through metaphorically. A metaphor is a comparison. Which means equating one thing with another.
married folks without kids have had it worse than single people for a long time I always thought it was a punishment until they fulfilled the command to be fruitful and multiply. So the breeders are my true enemy here? Just checking.
Ted >> Thanks for the most interesting comment I've had yet, one that had some real conviction. But I'm not debating anyone's claim to the title of "family" -- I'm just saying that people can call family whatever they will, and every citizen gets the same rights.

But thanks for proving the point -- a 'lifestyle' choice for some, then for all...biology for some, then for all.
Many have considered it a symptom of French blindness that the EU Constitution was recently voted down in that country. Dutch voters also voted "no" on it, although they aren't the whipping boys of the American press like the French are. But perhaps the French had it right. And the precedent can be found in America's own history. The EU Constit
Benefits for straight married couples make no more sense than benefits for homosexual couples do. Because deciding to cohabitate with a person of the opposite sex, procreate, all that -- well, it's a lifestyle choice. Those people who argue that being straight is pure biology, like being black or white, need to wake up and smell the pheromones. Nobody makes
Vanity Fair broke what should have been the most exciting story of the year -- the identity of Deep Throat. But like Jon Stewart said on the 'Daily Show' -- "Deep Throat is (dramatic pause) a guy you've never heard of !" Ah, how typical. Well, now I'm irritated. I always pictured Deep Throat to be a mixture of the Cigarette Smoking Man from
