It occurred to me (As I compose my email to President Robert Bruininks) that there must be more that we can do to in support of PZ. At the most I would like to propose a counter campaign, an email barrage sent to the Catholic League from supporters of PZ. Unfortunately, they don't seem to have an email address on their web site . . . they do have a fax number though: Fax: (212) 371-3394

It seems unfair that the forum for this skirmish should be fought in the inbox of a university president and not in the inbox of the Catholic League. We should convince them of our support for PZ

any way,

kick ass, PZ!!!

I am not sure if I can buy into this sort of wreckless rhetoric dgr8test97; "When someone gives his or her word to another person, he or she must keep that word."

To deny another person the right to choose when the love fades and the drudgery begins is more immoral than the resulting infidelity. I don't think that making a promise trumps another persons freedom to choose their own happiness. This sort of long term sacrifice of personal freedom falls outside of the obligations of a verbal contract.

The sort of consensual slavery that traditional "religious" marriage advocates panders to possessive jealousy and not to the emotions of love that evolution has endowed us with.

We do not possess our spouses. We expect that they will always be the same persons we fell in love with. But, over the course of 50, 60, 70 years of marriage, people change and verbal contracts can turn into shackles and marriages can become dungeons.
