arbitrary discrimination, based on sexual orientation is
unconstitutional, period. Don't YOU get caught up in the preacher's
issues. Many of them have their own internalized homophobia going on,
many have ignorance, and many are just repeating what somebody else

ministers saying don't vote for our President because he personally
believes in marriage equality and has "evolved" to that point. They are
all losing their minds. He is not enacting legislation about it, and
even if he was, it does not in anyway affect the ministers who are
having a stroke about it. The President has evolved to see that inst
