That's great, and I respect how you feel.

What bothers me is when people attempt to get their feelings and religious
beliefs incorporated into law so that everyone must abide by them. On any
significant controversial issue today each side has valid points - that is
why the issue hasn't been resolved. Making laws will not resolve anything
and my leaning is to have as little governmental interference (i.e., laws)
as possible.


Exactly. For example, it may be your religious belief that it's wrong to
take the life of another human being without provocation. But someone else
may have no such belief. So there should be no law against murder.
