I think if the boy scouts wants to kick out the gays, lock and load. Thats their choice. But if they wish to do so, they should also cut off their absurd public funding from the government if they wish to implement such discriminatory policies. It's fine to discriminate if nessecary (IE an acting job, music job, etc.) though I believe some extent of the civil rights act was just, especially when it comes to holding public positions or going into something with public funding.
But a government has to rule by the people and if the people should get what the people want.
I disagree, for it makes for too unstable a government. I'm conservative like you, so I agree with a lot of what you do say, but I believe if you want to have a government, it should be how Milton Friedman described it: That is, one who's sole purpose is for economic glue and the security of freedoms. When you do what the people ask, you end up disregarding the minority, which is a voice that shouldn't be so easily disregarded. If most shit is legal, then you have a pretty good accomodation. Gays can get married, Bobby Priesthood doesn't have to recognize it, and not have to hire gays in his church.
Oh, I can't argue with that. I would go on about it, but yeah, we agree on that, not much to talk about.
