You do not have to be fertile and procreate to marry! What about couples who can't have kids or choose not to? is their marriage any less valid? the answer is NO!! What about people like me?? I have had 3 sons and a daughter. Those 3 sons have all procreated and have given me and my domestic partner 3 beautiful grandkids and 3 bonus kids.SO I have done my "duty" to God according to the bible and I have procreated.Finding that men are onerous creatures,I have chosen to live my life in manner I felt it was meant to be in the first place. So Mr Miller.. what now??

What the bible says only counts if you believe in the bible. There are millions of people in this country who think the bible is a collection of stories, around which no one's life should ever be planned. Mr Miller, you and your fellow believers can go ahead and live by every detail of the bible but there is no way you can force people of other religions or NO religion to live by such a rediculous collection of contradictions and outright lies. If I were a betting man I would bet there are parts of the bible which you deem foolhardy. For instance,I'm sure you don't kill your neighbiors for working on the sabath. Well, the parts of the bible that condemn homosexuality are just as ignorant and it's about time the christian public realizes that.

Yes, the bible defines marriage as between a man and a woman. We get it. We heard you. Good for you. Maybe I can explain this to you in a simple way that you just might understand... "If you wish to have or live that lifestyle do so".

"It also seems our politicians don't have the guts to stand up for what's morally right or defend the moral values this nation was built on".
The politicians crossed political lines and voted to do the MORALLY RIGHT thing. Go ahead and follow the bible if that is what you believe but follow all the bibles rules not just those you choose.

Politicians need to have morals to take a moral stand, then again so do Christians. It's clear that Mr. Miller did not read passed Genesis, because he has no moral understanding of what it means to be Christian.

Those passages do not state what Rex is saying they do, the very point of my letter, this ridiculous reinterpretation to fit indivdual agendas is nothing short of hypocrisy!
