Well, it's a difficult issue, especially when you openly examine other reasons we (as a society), do not allow marriages to occur. There may come a day when gay couples can marry under the law the same as heterosexual couples. Cultural mores are sometimes dispensed with quickly, and sometimes very slowly. It is funny though to witness the extreme "homophobic name calling" reaction toward Neo, who's views are basically shared by most Americans. If our press decided to pin a negative label on those who want to prevent polygamy from being recognized in marriage, the same as one-man-one-woman (such as polygamophobic). I wonder how quickly others would jump on the PC name calling bandwagon. If you accept but don't celebrate homosexuality, it does not make you a homophobe. Politically correct name calling, is precisely the reason so few have thought about those questions and examined their assumptions. Michael
