Tuesday, July 01, 2003 :::
I was planning on another rant about moving, as I just moved myself this last weekend, but then I read an article that truly pissed me off.
rant
Sen. Bill Frist, R-Tenn., said the Supreme Court's decision last week on gay sex threatens to make the American home a place where criminality is condoned, per an article at courttv.com.
He is apparently afraid that allowing gay Americans to have sex will lead to the legalization of drug use and sale, and prostitution as long as it is inside a private residence. I somehow think he is under the impression that gays do not rent hotel rooms.
He then goes on to say that he feels marriage is a sacrament and as such can extend to the legal definition of marriage. Last time I checked, we have a separation of Church and State. As sacrament is a religious issue, how exactly does he think it can legally extend to our nation's definition of marriage?
By his thinking, any heterosexual couple who entered into a civil marriage would not legally be married. Does Sen. Frist feel that marriage should only be legal if condoned by the Church?
Now that frightens me.
