Quote:That's where I disagree, tolerance does not equate approval. As a society we can strive to be tolerant of each others differences, doesn't mean we all approve of each others choices.


Just because I believe people have the right to do an act doesn't mean I've changed my belief in the act being right or wrong. The poll ytram cited even proves my point, the majority of peoples views (67%) on the issue haven't changed their belief about the issue, they've change what role they think government should play in the process.

Never said it did equate to approval. I stated people's views changed. And they have. If one day I don't approve of gays marrying legally and another I do regardless if I think it is wrong or right, then my views have changed. Also, there are those that were tolerant, but disagreed with it who now think it is okay. I am one of those people so I can tell you firsthand.
