My decent proposal of individual rights

As many of you know, have heard, or may have guessed, I consider myself a conservative. I believe in limited government, states' rights, pro-life legislation, lower taxes, and all that jazz. I am also a genuine believer in Christ, an avid reader of the Bible, a researcher of Christian and religious history, a perfectionist, and a passionate (and compassionate) citizen of the community, the USA, and the world. With that said, I would like to share something that has been on my heart for about a year.

Several months ago, I wrote an article about equality in marriage. I proposed the idea that maybe we should have true separation of church and state when it
comes to marriage. With gay rights activists and religious counterparts, we must ask ourselves, "Will this nonsense ever end?"

I think it could. I say, "There's a simple solution!"

Idiots among us

Have you ever wondered why certain groups are stereotyped and socially rejected?

Increasingly over the years, I have seen, read, and heard ridiculous statements regarding the ignorance of religion, conservatism, and the Southern part of the United States.

Can I please point out that there are idiots in all groups?!

People (at least in America) are labeled in 1 or more of the following groups: religious, atheist, agnostic, conservative, liberal, moderate, Northerner, Southerner, Mid-Westerner, Westerner. I'd like to talk about the one I am most passionate about: religious/nonreligious.

Equality in marriage

As many of you know, yesterday a U.S. Court overturned the California same-sex marriage ban. Beliefs aside, I have a huge problem with both sides of the marriage argument.
