[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Huh.  One of my best friends was a bridesmaid in my wedding. Her girlfriend at the time also came.  She knew my very religiously conservative views on homosexuality, and didn't invite me to her wedding - which was about a year later - but still came to mine.

Frankly, I would have gone to hers, since I don't have issues with same sex civil marriages, but whatever.  It was also a short notice thing when it became legal in their state, so that probably played into it more than anything else

We're still close friends.  I don't discuss gay marriage with her and she doesn't call my religious views nonsense around me.  I guess we care about our friendship more than we care about making some kind of political statement.  [/quote]

wanting equality for all is not some political statement, as the party who is not being denied rights I can see where YOU would try and politicize... but I am glad you can still maintain a friendship with someone[b] whom you believe doesn't deserve the same rights as you[/b], denial comes in handy for sure...[/quote]

PP said she doesn't have issues with same sex civil marriages.  The marriage equality movement isn't about getting each religion to accept same-sex marriage.

separate but equal doesn't work, I never said anything about getting religions on board- just being given exactly the same rights under the law[/quote]
