oh...wow...

i have no words to describe the following, but felt the need to share:

""The state law of Texas only recognizes a marriage between a man and a woman, and I support that," said Chris Stevens, chairman of the Galveston County Republican Party. "I don't necessarily think they should be put in prison for [homosexual acts], but I don't think it should be a state-sanctioned activity."

Stevens cited the example of the fall of ancient Rome, which he says acknowledged homosexuality as legitimate. Although there was not just one single reason for the fall of the Roman democracy, homosexual unions may have been a contributing factor, he said."

that's part of an article that you can read here:

are people really this ignorant? really?!

okay, anyway. i have to get back to writing my paper, but came across that and was just astonished. i'll update later.
