Was going to go back to watching Friday Night Lights but landed on the live telecast of the Same-Sex vote/debate in the New York State Senate. So, I'm watching it.

Do have a question? Do you think religious organizations and religious beliefs should be granted precedence over and above a human being's right to choose which fellow non-related human being they choose to marry?

Also to what degree should religious freedom be protected over all other human rights?

It's an interesting question. One I find difficult to answer objectively.

The Religious Exemption Amendment to the Same-Sex Marriage Bill )

I don't know about you but this whole religion business makes me want to sing John Lennon's Imagine...or at least listen to it. Speaking of...

Live commentary as it happens on the NY State Senate Debate on Same Sex Marriage and Vote on the Same )

Okay - the bill? It passed!! It passed!! YAY! 33-29! Very Proud to be a New Yorker tonight. Finally!

This is the most populous and biggest state in the US to make Same-Sex marriage legal to date. It is the 6th state to legalize it. Yet another reason NY is better than California!!! (grins evilly).

The tide is turning. Love does win over hate. There's a celebration in NYC right now.

HISTORY MADE!!
