1:omophobia has no place in America ) Jonathan Marquardt .~ xponent Columnist
Recend) the town of ~1ii Beach has trti:d regearing
ad\ erusing campaign icd at attracting rourism. The \'Jllagc has put up exmel~ conrro\'ers1al billud s welcoming homo ual couples to its beaches. \\"Ould be expected. there been an enormous public cr) from heterosexuals
:i do nor wane to see public la~ s of homosexual love.
Even though these senci-1ars are expected and are un
tandable. that does not .e them right. There are c key points that Americans y are missing, and I do emize Amerrcans for a reason. understand that people
t \1·hat they do not under-d, and they especially fear and lifest)les chat the)
been caught were iong." As someone who
raised in a Christian e.I was taught certain s regarding homosexual-~s this is the most com -
mon reason for people co discriminate against homosexuals. I have a bone to pick.
Before I begin, I am by no means a liberal. but I am a patriot and an American \\'ho will not allO\\ himself to put his teachings ahead of the benefit of other Americans \\'ho perhaps do not share m} religious affiliation.
The point is a big one folks. No matter what your religious beliefs. you must et them aside when it comes to matters of the governmenr. More importandy I think that people need to learn ro think like Americans. This means chat we must be unbiased, like if we were summoned ro jury dut). People have che right to pursue happines . Ac least certain types of people are allowed to.
Though che law bears no discrimination, how society can treat an issue is an en ti rel} different matter. Just look at rhe progressi\·e mO\ ement of African -Americans in the midl 900s. The \'Cr) idea char a white person might ha\ e to
share a swimming pool or drinking fountain or rescau-
rant with a black person was appalling, and unthinkable. As a matter of face, the idea of integrating beaches chat were for whites was oudandish. but ic happened.
So how is having a homosexual
love in the same manner? Well, you might say, I do not want my children co see that! Quite frank ly, I do not want my children to see anybody going at anyone in a public place no matter w hat their sexual preference may be.
What would be wrong with celling your children chat those people lo\'e each other
and there
couple on che beaches any different ch an h a \' i n g blacks in the 60s tr) -ing to desegregate common areas? I know what
''Though the law bears no discrimination, how society can treat an issue is an entirely different matter:'
a re all kinds of love? Perhaps that is nor the lifestyle
you are thinking. At least they were heterosexual and black men were nor kissing black men in front of decent families.
I would say this: I have seen far coo many disgusting displays of heterosexual 10\·e in public places in m) lifetime. How is it fair co ask an Ameri can person \I ho happens co be homosexual co have co go ro the beach and watch hecerosex ual couples maul each other in che sand, but the) are not allo\1 ed to express their
that you teach them direct!) in your home, but that does nor mean rhar they should be taught co regard homosexuals with disdain.
Furthermore, something that we should look at as a society is how much public dis pla,s of affection arc appropriate. I know char I cannot go to the Bozeman Hot
prings on a Saturda) night wichouc ha\ ing the pools teem with heterosexual lusr. I am heterosexual, l love women. bur chat does not mean chat I
want to watch people go at each other when I am s itting in the hot rub ! It is called de cency. and society is gradually losing unde rstanding of that valuable concepr.
D o you really need to grope your significant other all over campus? Ok, ok. we know that you are wild about each other and char you are going co challenge the strength of the bed frame tonight bur do you really need co broadcast that in front of everybody?
'V<'e cannot call ourselves Americans as long as we discriminate against other people based on their looks or lifest) le or anything for that matter. I would remind any would-be ministers our there thar the Bible does not advocate hatred of homosexuals. The texts will show that the Bible references the act of homosexuality as vile. bur it never says that He hates the person. Thar is a key point. God no more hates the act of homosexualit) than he does the use of foul language. Does that seem unlikely? Then l challenge you to read the pa~sages for yourself. Romans 12: 9-21 and l: 26&27.

It is no accident rhat love is a fou r-letter word. Love, as it is viewed in western cul ture, is responsible for much of the arrist1c success and cultural highpoints, b ut al o for many of the things rhar are wrong with society.
The United rates should be a very happy country. \Y/e take some freedoms for granted that, to ome end. are nor available to the a\·erage citizen anywhere el e in rhe \\'Orld .

\'i/e have been responsible for some of the most dramatic philosophical, scientific and artistic accomplishments the world has ever seen. We have almost everything that can be classified as po irive.
Yet we also have an exrraorclinarily high rate of depression. Half of Americans are overweight, and one out of four is obese. A staggering 50 percent of first marriages are expected to end in divorce. These are not the trappings of a happy, content sociery.

old or the young. Even the indicators themselves have been blamed for rhe lack of general happ iness. There are more divorces every year because children grow up in separated homes and view divorce as the norm. This is circular logic.
I would like to offer a new theory to explain the failure of the American family unir. In light of upcoming Valentine's Day, I would like ro blame love.
Love is respon ible for the clivorce, depression and general unhappiness of the a\·erage American citizen. Well, not completely.
There are man) different kind of lo\·e. For example. a certain rype of love is behind e\ -
ery piece of western art that has ever been created. Although art in Greek and Roman times represented a different kind of love rhan what we think of today, it was still love. This was the love a slave was supposed to feel for his captor, o r citizens for their emperor, or humans for a god.
Around the Renaissance, that view of love turned more personal - the love toward objects, the love between f\VO people, and finally, the love of love and the love of arr itself. Art would be nowhere without love. Anything that claims to be art and is nor related to some kind of lo\•e is nor art. It's an ad\•ertisement.
Ho\\'ever, the love I blame for

rn shelter History and romance in a teepee
I~ Ian Shive W xponent Writer
It was near sunset when two explorers gazed across the unmapped frontier of the American \X'est. taking note in the distance of several conical-shaped objects silhouetted against the edge of a prairie that appeared to have no end.
Pioneers Meriwether Lewis and \Xrtlliam Oark approached what was a village of Teton-Sioux Indians. The cones in the distance were what we now recognize as teepees (also spelled as tipis, tepees). These buffalo-hide lodges soon becan1e a staple of living and SW\~val for the Corps of Discovery. Efficient, durable and highly mobile. the teepees allowed for indoor fires in both dry and wet weather making them indispensable to the wicked environment the inhabitants faced.
Lewis and Clark recognized them for both their practicaliry and the advcnnirers O\\'n personal continued existence. Today more Americans ;u-c beginning to rediscover teepees as an authentic western frontier cxpenence.

Teepees appear to be a sin1ple

The} rent and sell teepees. though they find that most customers wam one in their yard evei:y sun11Tier after one experience and evennially make a purchase. They range in price from $-153 for a simple 8-foot lodge to $2,065 for a massive 24-foot dwelling. The companies owners. Jim Bonawitz and Jen1 Blueher, can be considered "artists" \\'ho hand-assemble ead1 teepee.
At first glance. Bona\\itz seems like any other Montanan-hard working and modest. As he led me through the workshop I became enamored with the process and artistry of their craft. The construction and design of the teepees i rrul) a process based on '~ion and expertise.

think about it.
~Exponent February 12, 2002 9 Teepee: 'Roughing it' takes on a different look O ontinued from page 1 I -:y and a time long past.
Before this moment, I had never pped foot inside a teepee. ow I s gazing at the blue sky peaking iough the top flaps wondering what vould be like to sleep in one. I was :itured by the awe and wondermt of my own curiosity for a taste rbe past. My mind even picked a · gwherel wouldenjoyayingone
mese strucrures: near a lake at the tom of some snow covered range
'l!re the sun would shimmer off the t'er and glow above the peaks as it :tppeared. Emily Dickinson once cribed a sunset as the "far the-
acals of the day." I wonder if she r pictured it from the doorway teepee. Though teepees are no longer for swvival the~ have certainly
ome a p1crure;que and neoclas,vay to recreate. Bona\dtz and ::her are currently working on a
de! for lads that could be used !Ors and would sell for under J. "All lads at some point make a out of sheets or some kind of board box." says Bona\\·itz.
pgine what it would be like to a teepee." He would know. He
ee kids himself. including a 4-ld son who he hopes one day
t take over the business and art
vas lodgings. Cena.inly to a little must be an ad\'enture having a

the old West. Without a doubt there is something to say for an evening spent in a teepee. When both flaps are open you can feel a breez.e pass through the lodge, perhaps even feel the spirit of adventure left by Lewis and Oark.
Some people might associate the allure of a teepee as a fad. Quickly dismissed as such, some speculate that perhaps the igloo will be next in line. Teepees are hardly a fad, as they have once again been growing in popularity over the last two years. In fact, White Buffalo Lodges is selling a lot of teepees to bed & breakfasts due to the increased interest from customers. "If people have the option to stay in a room or a teepee, most
will choose the teepee-at least for a night," said Jim.
When I first thought of a teepee I pictured a tent. I get cold in a tent. If it's 40 degrees outside, I'm freezing. I asked Bonawitz if they' re warm. "It's the only kind of mobile outdoor structure that you can have the fire inside," Bonawitz explained. They stay toasty-warm all night long. You can even roast a marshmallow &om your bed.
I wasamazed athowornate-or not - a teepee can be. Some people cover the ground inside with sheepskins and furnish them with a bed, side tables, lamps and picrures. I was in some where there was just a pitfire and a chair.
Since the material is a type of can· vas called Sunforger- the same kind used for sails, it can be painted like any other art canvas. I imagine for some, the art of painting a teepee can be just as much of an experience as sleeping in one.
No matter how you style your canvas lodge, painted or traditional white, it is unforgettable that these cylindrical structures only exist because of Native American culture. I was curious to know how different these teepees are from the originals of the Great Plains as these weren't made of buffalo hides wrapped around lodgepoles. According to Bonawitz there is no other difference than the switch from hide to canvas.

It was hard to leave the shop that ever.ing. I desperately wanted to feel the cool evening from inside a teepee. I looked to the sky and it was beginning to grow a cobalt blue from alpine-glow. Oouds had moved in, covering the sun and for the day post
poning the "far theatricals". In the distance were the snow-capped peaks of the Absarokas, below them the Yellowstone River where more than two centuries ago the Corps of Discovery first set American eyes upon its waters. I drove home and marveled at the history thar lives in Montana. I was proud to call it home.
