Even though I do like the idea of having everyone allowed to marry with the same "benefits" I still like the idea of separation.  Such as you can still have religious marriages that follow by their own rules and simply aren't recognized by the state governments.  Then of course have state recognized marriages which keep the Constitution at heart of couse.  Don't think the government has the right to simply tell religions they can't hold marriages anymore... but as it should be just won't be recognized by the government.

Sorry Zucas, I was drunk when I wrote that shit earlier. lol.

Oh that's cool I really didn't take it offensively.  I was just trying to give some random advice haha.

lol..

well somebody has to correct you on your crazy liberal antics. I would.. but I usually don't know what I am talking about and end up looking like I don't know shit. TheRealMafoo is much more convincing and actually knows what he is talking about, so I am glad he is here to put all these crazy liberal ideas to rest.

TheRealMafoo is intelligent, he can actually debate, the smart right wing on the this site (Mafoo, Slimebeast, Kasz) are the only sodding reason I come here any more. I like the debates, even if I'm wrong, but I am often right too. Just because I have a liberal point of view doesn't mean I'm wrong in what I believe, liberals and conservatives balance each other out, that's how the world works. You obviously have yet to figure that out.

I'm not actually right wing.  I'm more of a practicalist.  All things even I'm for comprhensive social programs to help the poor and such. 

You just need to find ways for them to work.  Putting in bad damage systems are worse then nothing because such systems can never be removed and can rarely be modified.

I think by right wing I mean you are a libertarian, as with the others I mentioned. I know it's not right wing, but economically it can hold a lot of right wing views... Bleh

You know what I mean.

But to a true right winger, I would be considered left wing. Most people remember the things they disagree about, and not what they agree on. For example, I am called a right winger in a thread where I support changing laws to give homosexuals equal rights.

Funny how we gloss over what we agree on.

"To a reckless man a courageous man seems cowardly.  To a cowardly man a courageous man seems reckless."- Aristotle

Don't think this is the first time I've brought this up either haha.  There is a reason I don't like many of the debates between left and right as the forefront of the discussion because I think most of it is pretty pretentious and illogical.  Really I tihink most would find (at least in American politics) that most of the left and right are pretty similar simply becauses they are closer to moderates than anything.  I still think most of the split is simply created by the extremes to give this "false" sense of opposing forces clashing... somehting Madison spoke pretty heavily against. 

It's simply a distraction to those really trying to have legitimate discussion and eventual compromise.  I mean that is how the founding fathers would have wanted it.  Just for some odd reason we don't seem to want to do that.  I really do wish we could have debates as Americans or citizens rather than right, left, democrat, republican, extremist, anarchist, god lover, god hater... etc. 

 

Maybe I'll create a topic on just that tomorrow or something.  Haha already got an idea for today's topic that will get very few reads and views.

I'm warning you, only read if you really want my opinion:

 

Another solution to the gay marriage issue is to stop being gay. Find a woman already just like 90% of people already do. I don't see the draws to being gay, I find it hard to believe you'd rather get it on with another dude then a hot chick.

I know that sounds simple to you, but I think it really doesn't work that way in real life. It's not like a switch that you can just flick on and off.

lol, pretty funny.

1 Corinthians chapter 6 is all scientific evidence anyone will ever need to stop being gay.

I love the advice that link gave at the end

"To stop being Gay you have to stop having sexual intercourse with people of the same sex."

No shit Sherlock.

@Kasz: I'm pretty sure that in the Old Testament the problem wasn't that you would go to Hell, it's that God would come down and kill you and your whole family and burn your house down and pee on the ashes. Kind of like what he did to Job, only this time he means it.

And people don't argue about that stuff, yes, because.... I don't know why? But they do argue about the gay stuff and a lot of objections to man-love have roots in Biblical sources. I mean, it's right there! It might be hard to say which causes the other but most people who are brought up to believe that gayness is bad are brought up to believe gayness is bad exactly because it pisses off God.

@c0rd: That's the best compliment I've gotten on these boards, thank you.

People who are homophobes are also often the same people who are racists and there is no racist justification in the bible there.

People only pick out the one thing because they already want to believe that one thing, aren't that one thing and want to ignore all the many other things that suggest they're pissing god off.

 

Scientifically speaking as well... a very large percentage of homophobes appear to be gay themselves.  They've done scientific studies on it... it involved porn, and some intersting machines.  Amusingly Lesbian porn is used as a control.

i've actually seen that website before when i was trying to "convert" myself...sadly, it's much more difficult than anyone can imagine. speaking in terms if you're heterosexual, try repressing any and all sexual desire (having it is not the issue, it's practicing it), and never jack off again. it's certainly doable, but damn near the most difficult thing ever.
