Brad Pitt is one of the leading gay-friendly movie stars in Hollywood. Apparently, his mother is not as gay-friendly as her son.
Jane Pitt, Brad's mother, wrote a letter to her hometown paper, of Springfield, Mo., saying presumed Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney deserves "Christian" votes, even though he's a Mormon, because he's against abortion and shares "Christian conviction concerning homosexuality." Unlike, she wrote, President Obama, "a liberal who supports the killing of unborn babies and same-sex marriage."

I do agree with my parents on the definition of marriage.
I am glad I was able to persuade my liberal parents to come around to a sensible position.
What concerns me is once same sex marriage is legal they you will have churches and those that religiously or morally against it being forced to accept it.. And that is not right....it is not tolerant of someones feelings or views and yet they want tolerance for their views.
Churches can lose tax exempt status if they get put in front of a liberal judge for going against someones civil rights and once it is legal it opens that door. There is currently a case where a gay couple is suing a church because they would not allow them to have their reception in their hall....that is just wrong.
I don't understand the whole gay thing, but I understand for whatever reasons some people are attracted to the same sex. I don't understand the need to have a parade, or go out and profess your sexuality....I find that odd. However I'd find it odd if people were having a parade shouting "we're straight and we're great". It should be a personal and private thing. I have no problem with anyone holding hands, or a peck on the cheek in public, but I don't want to see anyone making out and groping one another in public gay or straight.. No one needs to share that stuff with strangers. It makes people feel like it is being shoved down their throats and that is not conducive to getting people to accept or understand.
While I understand the arguments for same-sex marriage, and I have friends & neighbors engaged in such relationships, I still don't support it. It doesn't mean I have some sort of outrage or hatred towards them, I just don't support this issue.
Who is Brad Pitt that anyone would really care about what he thinks? He's just an actor who struts and sways his hour upon the stage and then is heard no more.
