<title>KCRG : What To Do with Flooded-damaged Cedar Rapids Library Location? | KCRG-TV9 | Cedar Rapids, Iowa News,</title>
<link>http://www.kcrg.com/news/local/86054212.html#IDComment59577867</link>
<description>this may be a crazy idea..  but seriously, the true north building flooded too... so instead of wasting 45 mil, why not just turn the old library into the new library... </description>

<description>depends on the reader.  an e reader with an lcd screen will kill your eyes, but any of them that are e-ink, like the kindle, are great to read on. </description>

<description>it isn&amp;#039;t just behavior.. that&amp;#039;s what you are all about, the behavior.   behavior is taught, i didn&amp;#039;t have anyone to imitate who was gay to teach me how to be gay, it isn&amp;#039;t learned, it just is. </description>

<description>i have not seen anyone that has been medically harmed by homosexual behavior any more than the medical harm of heterosexual behavior..  biology demonstrates that there are certain things that happen randomly and homosexuality is one of them, and when you get a bunch of animals with the same random instinct they usually form a group, to strengthen the community of the group, they usually choose mates to their liking.    </description>

<description>umm glenn, the institution of marriage has changed many times, that is the point.   your point really is that you believe for religious reasons that gays shouldn&amp;#039;t get married.    its nothing about common sense, because to me, its common sense just to let two people(and because of your arguments, i guess i should also put in consenting adults) to enter into a legal contract that signifies in our current society love, commitment and trust, thereby promoting lasting relationships, and because many gays and lesbians adopt, in a way you are in support of having those children&amp;#039;s lives easily torn apart as well because you are being selfish by trying to infringe upon the rights of a few. </description>

<description>separate isn&amp;#039;t equal.  we could make all marriages civil unions, and leave the term marriage for religion.. which would be fine.  but you can&amp;#039;t have heterosexuals be special and get the term marriage, and have gays not be special and have civil unions.   </description>

<description>marriage also has a historical definition of trading daughters for property, stoning your wife for going against you, and older men marrying much younger women, even under age.    so your point is that as long as two men or two women aren&amp;#039;t getting married it&amp;#039;s all fine and dandy? </description>

<description>how about if you don&amp;#039;t think gays should marry, you just don&amp;#039;t marry someone of the same sex? don&amp;#039;t go to a same sex wedding? not that we would invite you anyway.  if people really want to &amp;quot;protect&amp;quot; marriage, then we should outlaw divorce </description>
