If economic disaster is a blessing then so be it. God will indeed bless them with a harsh lesson. Scare away everyone with half a brain and see where that gets you.

methinks daryll is a self-loathing homosexual in denial.

And another thing, Daryll, are you following God’s principals by being hateful toward a whole group of people? Come out of the closet already!

Actually, Daryll, if you could look past your own religious bigotry and try to understand that we, as gays, ARE HUMAN BEINGS, TOO – then perhaps you wouldn’t be on such a high religiously screwed up horse.

You are celebrating the forced denial of common decency that any common-sense thinking person abandoned long ago. But I guess religion doesn’t need common sense. It’s all a big academic exercise for you BECAUSE YOU AREN’T AFFECTED BY THE RULING.

As a Mi resident I was floored when I heard this judgement by the courts. I have gay friends and I know they are disheartened and saddened by the religious REICH and their hatred of gays and anything that is not REICH. It is a sad commentary on the state of this country and where we are headed because of religious persecution of gays, discrimination because of skin color or gender bias and not to mention the current state of economic class warfare, it is sad!!!!!!

As a fellow Michigander, I lower my head in shame.
Our jobs here are being outsourced exponentially.
The economy sucks.
Gas prices are unheard of.
Crime has increased.

But what should we worry about?
Making sure them thar gays don’t get benefits like everyone else.
Again, as a Christian, I am ashamed.

(Oh, and yes Dr. Matt….GO WINGS!)

Gosh, this should serve as a huge boost to that state’s robust commerce and economy.

Gay people pay the same in taxes but do not get basic rights. Makes absolutely no sense.

Daryll believes God will reward him for condemning and denying his fellow neighbor the common decency afforded by God to Daryll… How very Christian of Darryl… NO?

Hea Darryl,
I’m gay…
I’ll save a seat for you in hell… MINE!

Sorry D but Michigan is a someplace not a somebody. Still I am heartened to see you a little more revitalized. Still the real crazy zeal is lacking but I think you might be on the mend

Actually Daryll, that “surge” you feel is explosive diarrhea. God sent it to you for presuming to judge your fellow humans.

Let’s have some more court stacking–elect more Republicons. We need more hate in this country.

Can someone, anyone explain in simple terms so that I might understand the absurd premise that gay unions can not be dignified becuase they pose a “threat” to heterosexual unions. I never get that part? Am I just an idiot or does that stupid canard make no sense?

Michigan is mired in the past. Someday they may join the real world community.

We can’t be having any “special” rights for teh gays.

Giving them partner benefits might make them forget that they are going to burn in hell for all eternity.

But the gays much make sure they pay their fair share in taxes or go to jail. Yes no benefits for gays but they have to pay benefits for everyone else. Talk about Equal Rights!

My wife and I know many gay couples.
They are as happy as we are.
This Sunday we will be married for 35 years.
Why can’t gay couples celebrate their love? (Lesbians included.)
Love is love.
If you don’t like it, remember that Jesus said love and accept everyone. God forgives everyone. Maybe that is why fundamentalists are against gays. God forgives them for their radical views?
