I for one am impressed beyond belief how the maple community discussed the whole straight/gay marriage issue once Amoria popped out. I've read some of the things you all wrote to each other and i'm glad nobody went out on an extreme and started flaming each other. Quite often, opposing beliefs usually clash and it starts to get really dirty.

I whole heartedly agree, it has been a remarkably sane debate.

and yea it is expensive as heck, but some of the dresses are so pretty ::Swoon::

Having been through community drama once a month back in the day, I have to say that I'm pretty impressed too.

Also, I actually don't mind that weddings are so expensive as it makes players think before rushing into a marriage. (Also, I heard it cost something along the lines of 5 million mesos to get a divorce) Furthermore, if wedding rings are going to unlock new content and stat boosts, then it's reasonable that the whole process is so expensive because nothing else you can buy in cash shop will give you that.

lol to tell you the truth i'm pretty in between liberal and conservative. I grew up in a really really christian-based environment but right now, in high school, I found my true passion which is musical theatre in the sense of acting/singing/dancing. The theatre is usually really bent toward the liberal-radical view and it's definitely opened my eyes for different things like gay rights and such...so i'm moreover moderate i'd say. I don't support gay marriages at all whatsoever but I do believe there shouldn't be any sort of prejudice against homosexuals. Human beings are human beings.

wow that was like...political life story.

ha ha! I thought the same thing as viper_rebel...except also not. As it sounds like I'm a lot like you. Yes, I had my theatre days too and I ADORE the music from 'Rent' but I was raised super-conservative and later found out I didn't need to become 'super-liberal' as a way of rebelling, but I still didn't necessarily agree with a lot of the conservative views.
I personally don't have a problem with gay marriage only because I don't see who it's hurting. At the same time though, there's well....OTHER THINGS (ha ha! being vague, no need to start a useless argument when we're all being so grown up about it ;D) that I'm against for the most part which makes it hard to place myself on one side or the other.

and so there! you thought YOU gave a life story in a comment...;)

glad i did, thought... it was a very nice surprise, and i always enjoy a nice--respectful--debate about religious beliefs.
