The Maine Ethics Commission has overruled a staff recommendation, and okayed an investigation into fundraising groups that oppose Maine's gay marriage law.
By a three-to-two vote the panel ruled there's sufficient evidence to warrant a close look at fundraising by the National Organization for Marriage, or NOM, which is a major contributor to the group Stand for Marriage Maine.
Supporters of the same sex marriage law claim NOM is ignoring a Maine law that requires it to name its donors.
But NOM says it asks for donations nationally without designating them for specific campaigns so it doesn't have to report donor names.

So naturally it would be wrong for two men to be married. That would destroy the "sanctity" of all the adulterers, child abusers and other one-man-one-woman couples.
Word for word, Antigay marriage arguments are the same arguments used against interracial marriage.
Second, The bible is not the US constiution, nor is it the book on morality! It is just a book written by ignorant goat herders thousands of years ago. Like the morals within it, it is obsolete. How about if it was turned around? My religion says marriage is between two nonchristains and therefore, they should be banned from marrying because it would harm true marriage.

Thats why Jesus never mentions it as well. There is nothing immoral, wrong, or sinful about being gay. Jesus, however, clearly states he HATES hypocrites. If you preach goodness, then promote hate and twist the words of the Bible, you are a hypocrite, and will be judged and sent to hell. Homosexuals will not go to hell, hypocrites will.
This is very similar to the religious bigots of the past, where they took Bible passages to condone slavery, keep women down, and used Bible passages to claim blacks as curses who should be enslaved by the white man. People used God to claim that blacks marrying whites was unnatural, and not of God's will.
They say they fear intimidation, yet it is the Anti-Equality Heterosexual who is doing the intimidating and bullying. It is as if they are too uneducated to realize that if you want to stop getting punched, YOU SHOULD STOP PUNCHING PEOPLE!
Sadly, the Anti-Equality Heterosexual is also too stupid to realize that their children and grandchildren will grow up to be embarrassed of them.
