I do believe in living my life according to what "feels good" because when it doesn't.... then I know I'm headed in the wrong direction! If I hurt someone... it doesn't feel good.... Not allowing equal rights to gays hurts! It's just wrong!!!! When a couple is together for 25, 35 or 40 years and raises a family together and they don't have the same rights as any other family.... That doesn't just hurt the couple, it hurts the children involved.

angiefox10: Hi, happen to agree with you and as a "people" person have said so throughout this thread. In my view we could have all been in a win/ win situation. What many well meaning posters miss are the unintended consequences. Its the manner in which this issue has been mismanaged in my view and like the abortion issue will split this country down the middle for years to come but that point seems to be lost on some folks. Problem solvers remove emotion and work systematically to a successful conclusion. This decision was emotionally charged and political driven by egos.
