I try to just respond as directly as I can, but am not the "name-calling" type and do appreciate that the members here have always shown the same respect for me and this public forum......I think it is because we all love orchids, which by default means you are a good person, but that may just be me!
I am just sensitive right now as we are really concerned how this will effect the lives of the GLBT community here in Indiana....hopefully the changes to the law will keep everyone happy.
And I am also a little bewildered why, when Indiana simply drafted the same law that almost half of the States already have on the books, we became such a target, except for the possibility that those who wanted to see Pence fail at his run for whatever other office he wanted were the ones that blew this into a national debate.
I really hate politics.

I hate politicians and I think you are exactly right, this is about politics. My opinion of course. I think all this hubbub is from just a few people. It's so sad that your State is being targeted. It's not fare. Oh and who do I hate as much or more than politicians, the main stream media. They don't give you the news any more just what they want you to know. They give you only the facts they want to give you not all the facts so one can make up there own minds.
Show of hands on how many have heard of the Mus slum bakery that refused to make a cake for the gay couples wedding. This is all about targeting Christians (once again my opinion) .
I just don't have enough information about if I think this law was necessary or not. As I read your interpretation it sounds like it was already there, but there must have been something else to it. I would have to look into it before giving an opinion of it.
And Stray, I have not gotten that you are being nasty or rude at all. I understand you were just venting. I think we all have to sometimes. I could go on a big rant and have read and re-read some of this post then went back and forth about posting on it. I have not posted what I was going to originally say. It kind of went bad.
Well not to bad yet. I do not see why it needs to, we all have our opinions that's what makes the world go round. How boring if we all had the same one. I know that's what some people want but the constitution says at least for now we CAN have one.
Also stray I love your new avatar, we need to see a picture of that orchid or have we already?
