OTHO, guys like my dad and a lot of other American GIs thought this was well worth fighting for.
Ever read Song Of Solomon (Song of Songs)?
I'd say the author would agree with you wholeheartedly.
And those who'd be offended at an event like this, better not read SoS either. It would more than make them blush.
LOL. I’ll never forget the reaction of my pastor when I gave him the SoS verses we wanted read at our wedding..”These aren’t going to embarass me are they?”
BTW it was:
My beloved spoke, and said to me:
Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away. For lo, the winter is past, The rain is over and gone. The flowers appear on the earth; The time of singing has come, and the voice of the turtledove is heard in our land. The fig tree puts forth her green figs, and the vines with the tender grapes give a good smell.
Rise up, my love, my fair one, And come away!
~Song of Solomon 2:10-13
