Yeah... I'm ranting

After New York finding that it wasn't against it's constitution to not allowing gay marriage, New Jersey found that in it's constitution they allowed gay marriage. Today they legalized it.
New Jersey is the second state to have it legalized. Mass. being the first when in 2003, Mass's Supreme Court found it constitutional to allow gay marriage.
I am guessing that England sparked this idea since they legalized gay marriage in their intier country in 2002.
Our country needs to wake up, considering the countries in the world that once were considered 'not free countries' are now allowing gay marriage. Our world should be based on equality. Our country looks to closely at the damn bible. The bible was written a thousand years ago and no longer applies to our damn countries society. Gay marriage should be legalized, if you disagree that's you opinion. When you base ur decision on a religion it's opinion. It's not fact. Laws cannot be based on religion. I think we need to realize we have 'The Serperation of Church and State'.
That leads me to making an effort to ban the pledge. The pledge is a stupid idiotic act to always have this ingrained feeling of loyalty to our country. Not to say it works with some people, but when someone says 'Please rise for the pledge' it's gross that you do it without thinking, right?! I mean I use to not think, there could have been chains on me and I would have tried to get up. Out country is so odd...
The statement 'Under God' which was added into the constitution in the 1950's is also a very offensive statment to athiests. Athiests are a majority of the population too and the first amendment (I believe) states 'Our government will not act in favour of any sort of religion' ok... so like when you say 'under god' you are succluding urself to just any religion that believes in god. The religions excluded from this are Buddism and Muslim, I am sure there are more, but these are the only I can get off the top of my head. If our country says 'we will not honor a specific religion', I ask you, why aren't we doing it?
In PIG class (Participation in Gov.) I have to debate Immagration. I am for immagration. I found that out today, lol. I have always stated that 'I am against it' or 'inbetween'. But when you think of the conservatives views as 'They take $2 Billion out of our country a year' I say 'How much are we spending in Iraq each year spreading 'Freedom''. Or how much money did we send to the Indonesia Tsnumie (sp) I mean we a spending so much money on all this (Which is not a bad thing) then why is it a bad thing for people to come to our country, provide a service, and take back money? I know, you could argue that there not here legally, but I mean... I dunno, thats where people will get me, but when ur looking at the facts it just doesn't add up.
A stupid thing that The Bush Administration is now trying to allow is single-sexed class rooms. That right, they won't be co-ed. Considering ALL my best friends are girls, I would be a lonely kid! I would have had no friends. I would have sat alone at lunch, I would have played alone on the play ground. Doing this is basically segragation.
A lot of people argue 'Well if I had a daughter I wouldn't want some BOY hitting on my daughter'. Thats so dumb, so ur not against ur son hitting on some other guy's daughter? I mean if ur worried about that then raise ur son respectable.
The other wrong thing in this situation is that the people and the students have no say. It is the Board of Education that has this final say. This topic would be debated, I'm sure, extensivly.
I am against this completly.
