That explains why you are so fucking ignorant about them.

Let me ask you this, regardless of whether or not it's a 'mental illness', who has been victimized by their existence, what have they done that is detrimental to society?

Reproducing is not the same thing as wishing to raise a child.

OK.


Point Being?


Flying is not the same as Flapping?

It's not impossible for someone to want to raise a child just because they cannot reproduce...how simple is this?

Were not discussing SOMEONE.

We are discussing Queers.

And I'm not accusing EVERY QUEER of being unable or unwilling to raise children; I'm just saying that because HETERO-sexual behaviour is germain to reproduction, it is illogical to assume that a human population that identifies itself with the HOMO-sexual "lifestyle" would likely be composed of vast numbers of wannabe parents.

So if you don't get your kid by male - female sex, pregnancy & delivery it's not acceptable???
Kee-rist! Total strangers adopt children. Who are any of you to say what constitutes a family? How many of you had the opportunity and got divorced?
We're told since we are wee that you wil grow up get married and have a family That's Just The Way It Is

So someone finds out that they are in love with someone of their own sex and they're not entitled to that most basic of life paths anymore?
Why????????????? And why would you deny them that joy & fulfillment in life when if really doesn't affect you anyway? What right to you have to hold up the 'No' sign and then go home to your wife & kids and feel like you are finally home after denying someone else that most basic comfort?

Homosexuals have made their point and it was left up to the voters.....

We here in the state of Florida voted against gay marriage......

I voted against it......

Now certain states have voted for gay marriage.......

If it meens that much to ya go to one of those states and get married.....

I believe that marriage is a holy union between a man and a woman.

By the way folks, those of us who disagree with homosexuality are not homophobic...... that meens to fear.... anyone picture fearing Richard Simmons????? Give me a break.

We are homodisgusto..... we find their actions disgusting not something to fear.

Are Gays christianphobic?????? If fearing someone means that you fear people that you disagree with on a subject than the poor soft around the belly fags are christianphobic. LOLLLLLLLLLLL

AIDS is a good thing..... No actually a great thing..... I hope there is never a cure..... I hope a cure does not exist......

Ya know who never gets AIDS folks?????????

People who wait until marriage to have sex with one another.... remain faithful to one another..... put blood aside to be used if they need an opperation.

The rest of ya..... Gay men gave it to bi-sexual men who gave it to woman and passed it on to straight men.

To be safe ya either live by the rules that God set down for you or role the dice with your lives.

I know I'm late on this thread but I want to reply.

Tally, do you approve of poligamy as well?

Do you believe that the union of a male / female is equal to the union of a male / male?

Do you believe that there would be no significant effects on our society if marriage is re-defined for the first time?
If no, what do you base that on?


I don't have a "problem" nor do I "hate" gay people. I believe that marriage is a sacred institution worth preserving and keeping up on a pedistal as the best scenario for creating healthy families and people, which in turn creates a healthy society. That doesn't make me a bigot, you know. Stop being intolerant of opinions that differ from your.

Nobody is being punished as marriage is not a right.

Marriage is not really about "love". I love my mother, father, sister, my children, my pastor and a lot of other people. Does this mean I should be allowed to marry them?

The state has a vested interest in determining both the definition of marriage and who should be permitted to get married.

Respond.




Disagree. Do you believe that the state has no business in whether or not it should allow first cousins to marry one another? This is precisely why Samson isn't allowed to marry, don't you know.

Why only two adults? Why not 3, 4, 5 or 6?

Agreed.

But the state does have a legitimate interest in determining who should be married.

I don't know any serious person on the right who has argued that it's going to affect their marriage. Who are these people? That is an often raised red herring from the left as they ask "how will it affect your marriage"? when in reality nobody brought that point up.

I think the real issue is who is handling the edu***ion and at what age. I would much prefer to edu***e my children on the matter rather than allowing a "health" teacher who is a stranger tell my children this stuff if or when I don't believe they are ready. There is also somethng called promoting abstinence as we really don't want our kids having sex. My kids are going to learn the birds and the bees from me but they will also be heavily encouraged to remain abstinent.
