Bush signs Same-Sex Benefits Act into Law

I couldn't believe it at first, but ...

I love this board! Everyone hates homosexuals! LOL!

Homosexuality is deviant and wrong and nasty.

Behold the complete absence of vicious flames below:



 

Just so we're clear, I'm very joyed by the news story above (except for the usual crap cited by homophobic religionists).

Interesting article, I wonder if there's something in the law that states how long one must be a domestic partner of another to claim benifits, and what or if there's some type of proof you need to proivide that you were indeed the domestic partner of someone. I do wonder however how a christian president can sign something into law that goes against Gods teachings.

Mallory,
I for one do not Hate anyone! Even if someone is homosexual there's still hope for their salvation. God loves them just as much as anyone else, they only need to turn from their sin and start following God, they can be saved just like anyone else. While I don't agree with their lifestyle, or the fact that some of them want to push their lifestyle in my face and make me accept it as normal, I have to remember that they are no different than anyone else in the eyes of God, They are real people with real feelings and emotions, What they do is between them and God. Just like anyone else. I'm sure God doesn't view them any different than say someone with a drug or alcahol problem.

With all due respect I believe his job is too be an American President, not just a Chrisitan President sevring his fellow Christian Americans.

 

Maybe I should have said a president who claims to be a christian. His job as a president is to serve America, but as a christian he needs to also uphold the laws of God. This law serves to promote people living together without ever having to think about, or even consider marriage.

but the President is not divorced from who he truly is.  And He says he is a Christian.   His job is to do what He believes to be the right thing based upon our Constitution and other laws.  So he is the President of all but he can still look towards his Christian beliefs when he makes a decision.

  Read the article. It's very simple. He's allowing people to choose the beneficiaries of their life insurance.

   I don't see how you could argue against that notion. My life insurance, should I die, goes to my parents at the moment. Should my mother pass before me, my father will get it all.

  How is that any different? And what basis does the government have decided who I will my life insurance too? I paid into it all my life, it should go where I want it to go.

 

Morat what makes this different is it's a federal benefit, I don't think they have to pay into it, but I'm not sure either.

hmmmmm now that I've been thinking about this some more. I wonder if Bush looked at this as a homosexual issue, Or if the press is just touting it as such because it was the homosexuals pushing for it.

Thinking more on the subject, it would benifit everyone. Someone could name any other person as beneficiary such as, a cousin, friend, or even leave it as a donation to some charity etc...

In any case I shouldn't have been so quick to jump to a conclusion about the presidents faith in God.
I better start praying about that
