You may see it that way, but I bet gay people don't. Imagine gay people took over the united states. Their first act is to ban men marrying women and legalise men marrying men, would you say your rights are equal then?

This is how they feel. That is why gay marriage should always be legal.

lol, did you just take a line out of context and then try to say i am against rights that favor gay lifestyles?

There is not a single thing I can do that a Gay man can't, thus we have the same rights. We just need to give us all more rights that are advantages to a gay lifestyle.

subgroups don't get rights, we all do. There is no such things as gay rights, black rights, woman's rights, there are just rights.

I am for gay marriage, but if it's passed, every man should be allowed to marry another man, thus it's not a gay right, it's just a right.

no no no, I didn't mean it to be taken out of context, I was just making a point about that statement, sorry

Should it be a right to marry someone of your sexual preference? I can do that...but can gay people?

Allow gay marriage for everyone....including non gays. Everyone is happy, seeing as gay people can now marry people they want to marry.

Ha ha, "negroid." That's an awesome word.

I think the problem is that the gays want acceptance by the marriage community, and little more.

Marriage is a union between 2 people, that was setup, and recommended by various religious institutions. Allowing gay marriage abridges those religious rights, since 99% of all established, formal, religions reject homosexuality as a proper context of marriage.

Give them civil unions, give them access to insurance and hospitals. Do not allow them to tread on churches that are against homosexuality...The issue is that we've blurred the lines between what marriage is (a union between a man and a woman, ordained by God) and a civil union (co-habitation with legal rights).

People aren't born gay, they definately pick it up at some point in their life. Its up to the parents to prevent this.

I have heard lots of theories, the one that makes the most scene to me is as follows:

Some small percentage of people find there own sex attractive, and it repulsive to have sex with the opposite sex. Some small percentage of people find the opposite sex attractive, and it repulsive to have sex with there own sex.

Everyone else in on a sliding scale somewhere in between. The evidence that supports this, is environments where stigma is taken away, like prison for example.

Also, during the Greek times, it was the norm for men to have sex men. There was a small percentage of people who just could not do it. It was disgusting to them.

So I think there are some who are born gay, and others who due to environmental influence (like molestation, or whatever) choose to be gay.

As for the rest of us, we like to all think we are in that small percentage that could never be gay.

The issue is, marriage is not for you or religion to define.

It's for the government to define, and they shouldn't define it religiously.

What? That's like saying:

The issue is, god is not for you or religion to define.

It's for the government to define, and they shouldn't define it religiously.


Marriage is a product of religion. The problem is government recognizing marriage as anything, not that religion shouldn't define it.
