    • Great job on the doc...Very informative and insightful to how gays are struggling to be recognized as equals. I agree you shouldn't be treated as a second class citizen because of your sexual orientation. I do have a problem with gays attacking religious beliefs that are intertwined into our government. I grew up saying "one nation under god" everyday before class. My grandfather, father, and uncle fought for this and it should not be diminished because gays are struggling for there rights. On our money it says, “in god we trust". In our courts we swear on a bible and promise to tell the truth and nothing but the truth so help me god. If gays want to be recognized as equals in America then accept what America stands for and respect it. I am for gays fighting there battles for equalization but don't do it by trying to diminish what America stands for and disrespect what a lot of American’s gave there lives for. We are a country that believes in God and our country is founded under this belief. You have the right not to believe in God and that is what makes our country great, freedom of speech and belief.

      Thank you very much for your comments. I appreciate you viewing. First and foremost I do believe in GOD, and I believe that he is in control and he sees and controls everything we go though. Please take the time to look back on our great nation unbiased. You will see a nation that has just began to give back to itself, a nation still plagued with prejudice, greed and ignorance. The people in "Why aren't we Equal" are not saying that we oppose believing in God. We are stating that a nation full of deferent people and culture Shouldn't base a legal system on one belief, especially with God said in Lev 19:18 Love thy neighbor as thyself. thank you for your time

    • the girl with "the wedding" is soooo confused! I hope she is the only one in this center who compares religion with ethnicity and sexuality.
