Marriage builds strong family units. I see no reason to deny gay people the opportunity to build family units. That makes for a stronger society and benefits all of us....

How true! Congratulations to Jim Nabors and his partner! I cannot be anything but happy for any two people who obviously love each other, especially those who have been together for so long. Hopefully one day the prejudice and bigotry against gays and lesbians will go the way of the dinosaurs....
