As a gay married male, I would like to thank everyone for the intellegent adult conversation that has taken place on this thread. Education is the best defense against ignorance and by sharing our thoughts and feelings on this highly sensitive subject we can only grow and appreciate each other's position. While it's difficult to have these conversations without letting emotion take over, I carry no malice toward anyone who feels that my union is against their religious belief, I only ask that you not use your belief to injur myself or others. I believe as Gracie stated, "it is a two way street, acceptance of differences not only means the ones you value but the ones they value." My spouse and I have vacationed at TV every year for the past 17 years with thoughts of making it a permenant home. Who knows, some day we may be neighbors.
