Banning same-sects marriage? Some people think its time has come


Abner and Rachel were raised in a small community in Pennsylvania. Their family belonged to the only local church which had never affiliated with any to the national churches. As might be expected, they fell in love and over the years began some sexual experimentation. No birth control measures were available in their town, and even if they were, they would have avoided obtaining any because of the stigma in the community. Well, Rachel found herself pregnant and the two did not know what to do. They couldn't even think about telling their parents or they would be immediately disowned and have to leave the community. With apprehension, they went to see the preacher. They were told that as they were both adults and in love, he would be happy to marry them immediately. In unison they immediately said that they could not do so.

The preacher asked why and they explained, 'Our country is at war,' they said,
'and we feel that it is important to support our president in this
time of crisis. The president has told us repeatedly that he is
opposed to same sects marriage.'




:rofl:
