19. You know, you are on to something here...lets organize the objections
and the answers to these objections. This is what republicans do..they anticipate the stand and have a whole list of responses waiting to be made. We need to do this as well, they put one out..no resonance...they throw out the next response...of course these are all focus group tested!!

"Why?"

Just one syllable, but they almost never can answer it.

- Is it "because it says so in the Bible"? The Bible says lots of things -- do you want to legislate all of them? Would you like it to be illegal for anyone to work on Sunday, to wear clothes made of two different materials? Do you want to outlaw Red Lobster? Can we make human sacrifices legal?

- Is it "because they can't have children"? Should it be illegal for infertile couples to get married? Older couples?

Find out the reasons, and then keep asking questions that will point out the absurdity of their reasoning.
