I searched for the commercial. It's called "We Believe" and shows different couples, one of which is a lesbian couple. Thanks for posting about this Anmore.
I'm heading over to their facebook page now to support them.

Oh noes! Not in front of the children!!!! "Zales is using public airwaves to subject families to the decay of morals and values, and belittle the sanctity of marriage in an attempt to redefine marriage. Even though homosexuality is unnatural, this advertisement is pushing the LGBTQ agenda. An even greater concern is that the commercial is airing when children are likely watching television. To make matters worse, this ad has aired during family viewing time such as football games and primetime shows." She adds, “Zales crossed a line that should have never been crossed.” According to Cole, “Zales is glorifying sin, and no sin should be placed in the spotlight and honored. This goes for homosexuality as well.” www.towleroad.com/2016/11/zales-one-million-moms/Funny how LGBT people watch the 99% hetero ads without a peep. You don't believe in gay marriage? Don't get gay married. And relax, your kids could give a Sh#* less. To them, love is love and seeing it makes them grin. You don't want to think about gays having sex? I don't want to think about Chris Christie having sex. Doesn't mean he shouldn't be allowed to do it because I think it's icky.

Gay marriage, pro or con, just isn't something I get active about.

Gay marriage, pro, is something I get very active about.
I'm straight. In case it's relevant to anything.

I had no problem buying spices. Don't think I can do the jewelry though. I'm on a Charming Charlies budget. Lol

You have always been a part of the heist. You're only mad now because you don't like your cut.

Not typically something I would get active about BUT this is part of the constant thread of intolerance that seems to permeate everything these days.
Why can't people just shut up and let others live their lives?
Off to FB.

I had to chuckle that they are upset it is airing during family viewing time such as football. Because all of those NFL players are great examples of good family values. You know, wife beaters, serial cheaters, multiple kids by multiple women, etc. God forbid those wholesome family values are interrupted by a brief glimpse of a committed gay couple.

A few years ago I gave a writing assignment to my class. It was a descriptive piece about their family. After school, one little girl came to me and seemed very upset because she didn't know if she could write about her mom's SO, a lady. That hit my heart pretty hard. I told her love is love and that I was anxious to read her piece. The next week, the SO came into my room and gave me giant hug. She was actually a former student of mine. She said I was the first teacher her partner's daughter trusted enough to tell about her mom's relationship. It was a great conversation. That student was loved so much by those two women. People are people and it just isn't for me to judge love. I am fine with two consenting adults to love whoever fills their hearts.

I have seen the commercial... They used a variety of couples. I am heterosexual .... Although it's been so long, that is probably irrelevant! I am Christian. And there is so much hatred in the world that there is no way I am going to condem the love one person has for another. Hatred is evil, love is not. That simple

In Canada we have had commericals air with different kinds of families and no outrage. Well at least no enough to be noticed. Personally I try to avoid commericals anyway. But I don't think my kids are being tramatized in anyway. I even let them watch Ellen.

That simple If only more Christians were your brand of Christian, what a world this could be. I'm Catholic and have the same beliefs Scrapaddie does. Love is love. What is evil is the hatred against one another that we see so much of. I also very much dislike the judging that so many "Christians" feel it is their right to do, that leads to this hatred. What happened to "judge not lest ye be judged?" It is not our place to judge one another yet so many go around life doing it as if their lives depended on it. Love is love, no matter what form it takes between consenting adults. It is a beautiful thing that should be celebrated.
