As I said already, I'm a proud PARTISAN Conservative, but willing to recognize civil unions.

That's a moderate position. So, who made up your mind for you on this issue?

It's a compromise, I made, while still holding on to some assemblence of my conservative convictions, since I can still support that marriage is between a man and a woman, nor have to respect someone simply because they are gay

So, you're backing off on moderate positions only coming from someone unwilling to form their own opinions?

You have a moderate position on this issue; according to your previous arguments, it CAN ONLY COME from someone else making up your mind for you; You can't come to that position yourself.

Not sure where you got that notion.  Perhaps you're getting me confused with someone else

Naaaa, it doesn't work that way, since I never claimed such.  I have a compromised view on this issue.  We partisans can actually make the occasional compromise, as long as we're not folding on our core principals

>>You seem to be confusing "moderate" with "undecided". I suggest you learn English.<<

I'm not sure why you felt that was neccessary Ami.

I suggest ask someone what they term "friendly disagreement" means.

Unless you don't understand English?  ???

Because you were just constantly repeating yourself without adding any new content.

I wouldn't have classified him as such.

I always saw a partizen as someone who has chosen a side , joined with the like minded and contributes effort to the cause.

A moderate as someone who wants peace more than he wants either side to win.

That's a fair summation

Again it seems that we lose sight of the goal.

In Christianity, the central message is love one another.

Does it really matter whether you are baptized with sprinkles or dippped in deep water?
