I don't get it
I don't understand why everyone has to care so much about everything. I'm an extremely laid back person. I tend to take the same approach to political issues. I make an opinion on an issue most times just because I don't see why I should care. Let me explain. Take gay marriage for example. I''m in favor of it. I'm not gay and I don't really have a lot of gay friends or anything. I really have nothing to tie me to this issue, so I'm not biased about it. The reason I don't care, is that I don't see how two gay guys getting married is going to make my life so terrible. Maybe if there was a decent arguement against it I would change my mind. "It says in the bible etc." I don't care what it says in the bible. Well I do care because I'm a chrsitian, but I'm not going to let that sway me on this issue. Seperation of church and state kids. You can't use what it says in the bible to make legislation. "The dictionary definition says that marriage is between a man and a woman." So now Webster gets a say in what legal in this country? Can't we change the definition? "Think of the kids." I know that there are plenty of heterosexual parents that should never have had a kid. Maybe we should start giving out child licences to verify who's qualified to be a parent. I don't know that we've seen enough children with homosexual parents to know how they will be effected.

I liked how you slowly developed your argument for gay marriage. your points are all personal while still being applicable to most people. I enjoyed your way of ignoring all the normal sources of nay say, and choosing your own, unbiased view to really get your point across.
People care so much because they need to have purpose. For an individual to not have any beliefs will let them simply disolve into the masses and become a nobody. A person is founded upon what they think, and to throw that away for lack of caring is ridiculous.
