Most states don't recognize gay marriage - but now Hallmark does. The nation's largest greeting card company will now be selling same-sex wedding cards in their aisles. The cards will feature two tuxedos, overlapping hearts or intertwined flowers, with best wishes inside and say "Two hearts. One promise."
I won't be doing business with Hallmark anymore!!!
Do you really think anyones's going to care if you stop buying Hallmark cards!?
Most likely not there bucko!
Marriage is NOT a covenant between a man and another man. You Fools!
be careful, you may all turn to stone.
My entire life I loved Hallmark Cards. I loved the entire experience of shopping for that special card for that special someone. Hallmark always manages to say in their cards what I am thinking but cannot express myself. My husband recently retired from Hallmark, to give 110% to raising our son who has autism (I'm happy to say that my son is thriving since my husband's retirement). Hallmark was always good to our family. In my opinion, I applaud Hallmark for getting "with it" and coming out with gay marriage cards. It is a bold and gutsy move, and extremely risky to their reputation. But as far as I'm concerned, any company who could make millions of people cry watching their commercials, is okay in my book. Bravo Hallmark! By the way I still can't go into a CVS, K-mart, or my favorite, a Hallmark store without looking and buying one of their cards. My favorite, the newest singing cards of which my husband still showers me with for my birthday, anniversary, and even nurse's day (yes Hallmark has a card for nurse's day), and I still save everyone of them as a rememberance. So my advice to all of you is buy a Hallmark card for someone you love, even if it is a gay couple, happily together, as any other commited couple to each other, because nothing says I love you like a Hallmark card.
In a world ruled by hate, war and violence, we should embrace love, commitment, and faithfulness, and gay couples who commit to each other, whether thru marriage or commitment, deserve the same respect and courtesy as any other couple. And Hallmark should be applauded for their attention given to same sex couples, as all men and women should be created equal. I believe that in this day and age, people should get over themselves, and stop being so prejudice. I also believe that the same people who are against gays, are the same people who judge people by their race and religion, and there is no room for that, when our country is in such turmoil. People need to stop being so judgemental, and be kinder to their fellow Americans, whether they are gay or not, Bravo Hallmark, I applaud you.
Yup, that is so true, what this world needs is more tolerance, and understanding. Now like I've mentioned before it doesn't mean that people have to agree with it, but that's where tolerance comes in to play. What makes people think that they are any better than anyone else?!
Applaud immorality? Where do you people draw the line or perhaps anything goes in your world.
THIS WORLD IS GOING TO HELL IN A HAND BASKET!
HORRIBLE..
Tolerance has been redefined by liberals as spineless. Too many cowards sit back and accept immorality as ok and are affraid to speakup.
intolerance has been redefined by religious people as hatred... hey, why not just get rid of the gays all together? but wait, then you'd lose all your priests!
Well said Tom Peterson. Marriage is not a covenant between two men or two women for that matter. The World is not going to Hell in a handbasket. It is just going to Hell period. And now we got Hallmark in all this. I wonder when they're gonna come out with Pink or Rainbow cards. This is absolutely sickening, just sickening. Shame on you Hallmark.
I agree 100% with Tom Peterson. I will not be buying Hallmark Cards. We have to start standing up for what is morally right. Yes we have to respect people but we do not have to agree with what they do when what they are doing is morally wrong.
I agree with Tom Peterson 100%. I will not be buying Hallmark Cards. Yes we have to respect our fellow men and women but we do not have to agree with them when what they are doing is immoral.
I cannot support a company that is supporting an immoral life style. I have a right to speak up and say that I do not agree with their lifestyle. I do not agree with any religious organization that does a cover up of immoral acts within their own organization.
Where there is money to be made, there is someone always ready to jump in - and there goes Hallmark. They join the ranks of those making money in "vices" like gambling, prostitution,etc. Unfortunately morality isn't quite the goal for the majority of companies who want to make a profit off of anything they can. The idea of buying a card to congratulate a gay couple of a new baby? Let's see, man plus man, or woman plus woman? Mmmm, . . babies don't come from that, but the adoption comes into play here. How cruel it is to take a child that has no say in it's future and put it with a gay couple . . now talk about an unfair world. God loves everyone, but does not tolerate all we decide to do. He hates the sin, but not the sinner . . remember that. Guess what, . . we are all doing a whole lot of sinning . yea, maybe not killing or stealing or what we perceive to be the "bad" sins, but we are all still guilty. We do not need to condone gay marriage, but do not corrupt the Lord's teaching. Love the sinner, and pray for them. Be careful how you judge, for that is how you will be judge. Yea, I am against gay marriage, homosexuality, adultery, theft etc, etc, etc. I hate none though. but it does sadden me to see the downward spiral of the people in this world.
