Gay marriage ... why not??

this is probably a "copycat thread" but i am not going to read ALL of the threads just to see.. and plus none of them have to say exactly what i have to say... i say ."why not".. and i have a list of reasons why not (my reasons) i am going to get flamed by the "gay loving liberals" for it ... i know that and i can take it so it is useless.. i don't let it get to me.. i am the only conservative in my family.. so don't waste your time... It's in ur best interest

Lately there has been so many heated discussions about "gay marriage" and all and there is a split almost %o/5o on who is for it and who is against it ... and i can't understand why it is such a big deal...

Gays get their own special set of rights as it is.. they get to hold rallys at school (my school when i was there at least) and no one can say anything to them or make a counter protest... they get their own colleges and scholorships.. and they expect to be treated diferently then everyone else.. the gay people i know... and i know more then just a few.. i know enough... the main reason i am doing this is because they know not their boundries... i have been "asked out" by 4 lesbians.. and even though they know i am striaght they continue to persue me.. i Will not bring god into this.. "god" is not an issue... i don't even believe in god.. so many af these anti gay marriage activists are fanatical "god worshipers" and in their religion they raise a valid point.. Marriage is a matramony between a man and women... and got put "adam and eve" on this earth for the soul purpouse of (being fruitful and multiplying)... that is what god supposedly said to them.. two men cannot multiply, two women cannot multiply .. therefore in "god's" eyes it is an unnatural union.. a valid point to the religious....

Personally i am against it... I don't like the prospect of demeaning the sanctity of marriage.. but it is not up to me... "God" didn't say he hated gays.. but he didn't say he liked it... i think that the sanctity of marriage issue is the biggest one that keeps me against it.. i know that "you can't help who you fall in love with" and all that shit really... but to let 2 men or two women marry is not just unnatural but it opens the door to polygamists and pedofiles to say "hey u let them get married" if the liberals get their way with EVERYTHING then the country would be thrown into utter chaos... i mean the seperation of parties is good.. but this is one thing that i think is totally wrong... Civil unions are okay ... BUT NOT MARRIAGE!!!!!

AND I AM NOT A FUCKING GOD WORSHIPER.... GOD SHOULD BE LEFT OUT OF THIS....THIS IS'T ABOUT GOD...IT IS ABOUT MORALITY AND FORESIGHT INTO WHAT HAPPENS NEXT......

I don't hate gay people.. actually i have a lot of gay/lesbian friends that i love much ... their sexuallity has nothing to do w/ how i trat them of how i act towards them... hating a group b/c of their sexuality is wrong.. it is lke hating someone b/c they are black... or jewish... it is just wrong... The blacks marrying whites thing was breaking a boundry that was written.. and i have no problem with it.. but i probably wouldn't have agreed with it either.. i am not racist... but it is an inter-cultural thing.. and it led to this "war" on gay marriage.... Once again i love people

Another thing... gay people wanting to adopt children.. also a problem.. imagine growing up and having to say that you had two moms or two dads.. children are brutal.. you would have been ruthlessly taunted... there is nothing good about that... growing up in an enviornment with gay parents... the child may become gay.. ( i believe being homosexual is a choice not the "natural order of things") and then what...

I am going to stop before somones head explodes .. thank you have a nice day

I think homosexuality is both a choice for some people, who pretend to be gay because they're "exploring" their sexuality (which is retarded, I think), but for most people I think it's genetic. I have a friend who is bi, and I asked him once whether he wished he was straight, and he said that yeah, at first he wanted to be normal, but then he just got over it.

Just saying.

As for gay marriage itself, you make a valid point, but it just doesn't bother me. However, you won't see me in any pro-gay marriage marches any time soon.

If we're gonna give rights to some sickos and freaks, might as well give the same rights to all the freaks...now thats true equality. why should gays get to marry but mormons arent to marry as many wives as they want...etc... you might say, "but wait...thats sick" well alot of people find homosexuality sick, doesnt mean it is, but it doesnt mean what you think is sick is really sick either...so equality for all freaks or none at all. i prefer the none option.

So you're opposed to Gay marriage?


My advice would be don't marry someone of the same sex.

I agree that religions should be free to conduct their own affairs, if a church will not perform a gay marriage I take no issue with this, it is their religious belief.

But outside of religion, well, it is simply none of our business is it?

Allowing gay marriage would not lead to paedophiles marrying children, that is alarmist nonsense.
For starters Paedophilia is a sexual pervertion and is recognised as such under the law.
I do not see how it could cause polygamy, though many societies have practiced this for thousands of years and seem no worse the wear for it.

Do you have any serious sociological evidence to back up this alarmist assertions?

Opinions are fine, but since you posted them on a public forum I assume you are looking to convince people of your view.
Why not use some evidence to back them up?

Otherwise you may as well say you are opposed to Gay Marriage because it will make the sky fall on our heads.

wow ... okay ...
A) these "alarmist fears" they may come to pass you know... everyone wants equal rights... no matter whether it is right or not .. no matter what... (pedophiliacs and polygamists)
B) in the middle ages it was accepted (marriage between people that were many many years apart in age) and the past always comes bact to haunt us... 20 or 30 years from now it MAY be socially acceptable.. if we let this pass.. and that fact cannot be disproven
C) polygamists already have communities where it is accepted.. maybe not legally but it is accepted....

Hate to break the news to you but marriage has existed outside of Christianity for many thousands of years.

In the context of Christian dogma, yes you make a fine case. But we are speaking in the wider term.

A Marriage does not have to be in a church and it does not have to be spiritual

yeah, sodomy IS illegal in lots of states, just like pedophilia....so perhaps it IS a sexual perversion. im sure pedophiles dont think theyre sick. its all opion based. and my opinion is that gays shouldnt marry. i didnt know that because its against the law its necessarily wrong either...i mean fucking kids is wrong, in my opinion. but blacks used to be segregated by law...does that mean you supported segregation or even slavery? ( i do) but most people would consider that wrong, and it was backed by law. so laws dont really mean shit in the game of right and wrong.

They may come to pass, but not "because" of gay marriage.
You could make the same argument with *any* equal rights.
Are you going to say the abolition of slavery is leading to paedophiles marrying children?
Yes, in the middle ages things were different, but the young marriages were not caused by a liberal society, nor by gay marriage which was illegal. So your point is a non-sequiter

In communities that practice polygamy illegally the other wives often live awful lives because they do not have the normal rights of a married woman, and because it is practiced illegally the community keeps the marriages secret so the woman in question cannot be helped. They are often bullied into such "Marriages".

Legalising Polygamy would change that situation...just so know.

well you seemed to say a couple of very strange things

you dont like to be hit on by women so gays shouldnt be allowed to get married. just say NO the same as you would when boys you arent interested in ask you out more than once. its no big deal.

you think that marriage is SACRED -- even though you arent religious--so gays shouldnt be allowed to get married.

the sanctity of marriage doesnt exist and never did. in the old days it was a business relationship between a man and the father of the woman he wanted to marry. nowadays its based on the fleeting emotion of love. as love comes and goes so do marriages. straight people defiled marriage long ago.

well you seemed to say a couple of very strange things

you dont like to be hit on by women so gays shouldnt be allowed to get married. just say NO the same as you would when boys you arent interested in ask you out more than once. its no big deal.

you think that marriage is SACRED -- even though you arent religious--so gays shouldnt be allowed to get married.

the sanctity of marriage doesnt exist and never did. in the old days it was a business relationship between a man and the father of the woman he wanted to marry. nowadays its based on the fleeting emotion of love. as love comes and goes so do marriages. straight people defiled marriage long ago.

It is b/c they know no boundries is why i think that their marriage isn't right.. they have so many special rights as is.. why take away this from us republicans.. let us have one victory

i will never get married b/c i believe mariage is a religious affair

And on the third point.. i guess you are right

nah im having a good time right here. don't make me have a parade for my right to be here... if they really wanted gay marriage legalized the homos would just march more. marching solves everything. the blacks did it, the nazis did it, the gays do it...they just need more practice i guess
Or they would actually get the government into court and get their rights recognized, like it was done in Canada... and several US states... and Spain, and the netherlands, and...

Falsity. Name a single special right of gays and/or lesbians.

Allowing others to have the same right as you takes nothing from you.

Marriage licenses are a contract. They are to be regulated by the government. Gay marriage with a provision that protects Churche's autonomy regarding what marriages they perform solves that problem. Look at the law passed in Canada for further detail.

that still doesnt make any sense

because some girls at school wont take NO for an answer (and im willing to believe that they know you arent interested and thats why they keep persuing you) NO gay people should be allowed to get married?

what special rights do you think they have?

you have already lost this fight. its only a matter of time before the majority of people feel that its OK for gay people to get married. it probably wont take 10 years.


few people get married for religious reasons, they marry for the committment and for the legal benefits of marriage.

'
so now my well thought out opinion is Bullshit... i can see some one raised you well.. with respect for others... and on the american principles of tolerance no doubt

Your opinion wasn't "thought" out, it was felt out. Your argument wasn't based on logic or any conception of 'justice.' It consisted of "I feel ____, therefore there should be no gay marriage." If you want your opinion to be taken seriously in a debate over the public good or social policy you have to base it on some objective standard, not just your 'feelings' that a different group of people are 'icky' or 'unnatural.' Your feelings aren't the final arbiter of society.

And before invoking the mighty 'American principle' of 'tolerance' in your own defense, two points: 1) your 'principle of tolerance' is a myth-- you're appealing to some cultural tolerance when anyone who's paying attention can SEE quite well that the culture of the US is in many ways intolerant. Intolerant of foreigners, intolerant of gay people, and the list goes on. 2) If you begin with an intolerant argument against other people, you have no right to cry foul when those on the other side of the issue treat you the same way you're treating the subjects of your prejudice. It's blatant hypocricy. It's like a serial killer whining about receiving the death penalty-- an extreme example, sure, but the point is you reap what you sow. Besides which, anyone with a basic grasp of logic can explain to you that if a society values "tolerance," then it is in fact legitimate to sanction those who promote intolerance. Those who start the stone-throwing are the ones bringing 'intolerance' into the picture, and if you aren't willing to uphold tolerance as a social value, then you forfeit your right to expect 'tolerant' treatment yourself.

Matthew 18:25: "But for as much as he had not to pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, and his wife, and children, and all that he had, and payment to be made."

Ephesians 6:5-9: "Servants, be obedient to them that are your masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as unto Christ; Not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but as the servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart; With good will doing service, as to the Lord, and not to men: Knowing that whatsoever good thing any man doeth, the same shall he receive of the Lord, whether he be bond or free. And, ye masters, do the same things unto them, forbearing threatening: knowing that your Master also is in heaven; neither is there respect of persons with him."

Luke 12:45-48: "The lord [owner] of that servant will come in a day when he looketh not for him, and at an hour when he is not aware, and will cut him in sunder, and will appoint him his portion with the unbelievers. And that servant, which knew his lord's will, and prepared not himself, neither did according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes. But he that knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes. For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required: and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more."

Until i can go down to the court house and become joined in holy matromony with a horse or perhaps an 8 year old boy, a reclining chair or combination of any of them... i say gays shouldn't be allowed to marry. If we're gonna give rights to some sickos and freaks, might as well give the same rights to all the freaks...now thats true equality. why should gays get to marry but mormons arent to marry as many wives as they want...etc... you might say, "but wait...thats sick" well alot of people find homosexuality sick, doesnt mean it is, but it doesnt mean what you think is sick is really sick either...so equality for all freaks or none at all. i prefer the none option.

I find you really sick, I dont deny your right to happiness.

Marriage is a bond of love between 2 people who can enter a contract. last time I checked an 8 year old or an animal CANT DO THAT.
