i also have no problem with this and feel if two of the same sex want to get married, who are we to say anything. besides, there are many different religions that are no better than the other so who and what is to make jugdement. i have no problem with but do not like the political correctness of the system that makes a point to show that it is normal on tv or anything else. opinions should not be pawned off to make anyones else's opinion be wrong. i do not want my child growing up thinking it's normal to be gay because my opinion may differ to that even if i have no problem with others choice of sexual encounters.

on a side note, people were intended to get married to make a family. in my born into religion, you were or could only get married to have children which is completely not possible (as far as i know)between two of the same sex partners.

as far as marriage goes, all i can say about it is it's a commitment (i can say alot more but do not want to scare anyone) and therefore like anyone else has nothing to say to anyone who wants to commit themself to anyone regardless of race, religion, or sex. this is america and people should be free to do what they want aslong as it doesnt hurt anyone else.

Sure, let them get married, and lets hear about their divorces too. I want to hear how the court decides on retirements, property and even child custody situations. That will keep the lawyers and courts busy! :rofl:

Marriage means different things to different people. If you have a problem with the State legalizing it, then I suspect you have issues within yourself. State = mans law, Church suposably = God's law. If the State wants it legal, fine by me, I could care less if a bunch of J.O.P.'s are doing same sex marriages.

Now if it's because of your religous beliefs that you oppose same sex marriages, then fight it within you church. Church is a private community and like any private organization, it has the right to discriminate as it sees fit. Do I agree with this, no. But it's the way it is.

Bottom line, 2 people want to get married, that's none of my bussiness, it's their's.

Why do people make a big deal about something that doesn't hurt anyone? :WTF:

dosnt hurt anyone else? what about the children that have to grow up with this sort of thing. what is it teaching them? No wonder the divorce rate is so high. It&#39;s way too easy to get married now then it ever has been and i think the institution of marraige is watered down because of things like this. If we allow same sex marraige the next thing is marraige to your pet.

I have way too many issues with this and dont want to offend anyone so I think I will zip it.

lol, the tempers flying.
essentially if you are gay and in a relationship, then why shouldn&#39;t
you have the same rights as other couples? imagine being straight
and never being able to marry or to enjoy the benefits of marriage.
i imagine there is a much greater tendency to move from relationship
to relationship since there is nothing that gets recognized legally.
Your typical gay couple will probably be two wage earners, no children.
That means they pay taxes at the single rate and receive no benifits
available to other tax payers, for things like school, child credits,
education credits, etc.

I disagree with the ruling.

[begin opinion]

The marital union is one established by God between a man and a woman. To say that any other relationship is "just as good" is to demean his design.

My suggestion: Read Romans chapter 1. It&#39;s pretty clear.

dosnt hurt anyone else?* what about the children that have to grow up with this sort of thing.* what is it teaching them? Wake up, it&#39;s the millinium. It&#39;s all around, and there is nothing you can do about it. Hell it&#39;s on TV, so don&#39;t let kids watch TV, it&#39;s all over the net, so no net for kids. Education is the key, they will do what they want and what they feel is right, deal with it.

Not sure what what your point was on this, but the way I read it, show me a gay couple that has been divorced. Then I can show you millions of straight people that are going through divorce. That&#39;s a fact.


If we allow same sex marraige the next thing is marraige to your pet. That would have the animal right activists all over that, it&#39;d never happen. But if bestiality is your thing, :wacko: stay away from my dog, and I don&#39;t want to hear anything about it. This isn&#39;t even a comparison, from 2 humans, to a human and an animal. :WTF:

This is a funny topic to watch people post about, to see those are totally against it and are a big part of "the band wagon" and it goes to prove that society as a whole can&#39;t handle the truth. If society as a whole desided to move to another country, would you too? Some people need to wake up, and realize where they live, get a grip on reality. If not, tough ****, and deal with it. :rolleyes:

There are many things on TV that I deem inaproppriate for my children. And I do in fact control watch they do and don&#39;t watch. Same with the net. Of course there&#39;s something I can do about it if I think action is warranted. Wake up. No one should blindly except something that they feel is morally wrong.

Show me a gay couple that has been legally married. Is it legal anywhere? Hawaii maybe, I&#39;m not sure.

To many people homosexuality is as much an abomination as bestiality. It is a sin in many religions (probably most religions).


Personally I don&#39;t care either way. If two people want to share their lives together in a marriage then who am I to stand in the way of their happiness. Good for them. I do get a bit concerned when homosexual couples want to raise children though. That&#39;s got to play hell on a child&#39;s developing sexual identity.

One point has always puzzled me though. Humans are the only species (as far as I know) that produce homosexual offspring. Homosexuality simply cannot exist in nature. In another species a homosexual offspring would not reproduce and thus the genetic line would stop there. Assuming that homosexuality is genetically based. On the other hand pheromones play a much stronger role in other species, so perhaps homosexual tendencies are overcome by this chemically-induced impulse to mate. What&#39;s my point? I dunno. This is too deep to discuss without having a few beers first. :lol: :drink:

Its because of a lack of culture that the US faces. I mean, same sex partners are no big deal in other parts of the world and the children know that. They see it in their cartoons no less were the only country that trys to hold back because we lack in culturely intolerant. That&#39;s why most of the countrys that hate the US do so. I agree with Pure, Religon is a way more touchy subject than same sex marriages.

@ Sirc: It&#39;s legal in Germany. The homosexual couples can marry here and many did that when they legalized it.

@ all: I see nothing bad in it. Everyone should be allowed to be happy in his life and if this contains a same-sex marriage he should be allowed to do that.
If the church says it&#39;s bad and satanic - ok, but the church says many things I don&#39;t agree with.
BTW your children might find out on their own and what will you do if your boy or girl comes home one day and tells you: Dad/Mom I&#39;m homosexual??

Bruce Bagemihl: Biological exuberance. Animal homosexuality and natural diversity. St. Martin&#39;s Press 2000 (USA)*

does not stop putting forward interesting problems. When more than 450 species
have both males and females&#39; homosexual members, we need immediately to
deny any genetic responsibility for it, because too many variables into play.
Actions of stress inside the uterus or inside the egg during a particular moment of
sexual differentiation of the embryo could have better explained it, but till now
there is not any confirmation.

@ Rivers:

I disagree. I think it is the extreme cultural diversity that causes problems here in the US. It&#39;s the lack of cultural uniformity that does not allow us to develop a common acceptance of what is socially acceptable and what is not. In some countires homosexuality is excepted. In some it is punishable by stoning. How many Iranian same sex marriages do you suppose there are? ;)

:hmmm:

Well anyway, I don&#39;t agree that gay marriages "water down" the importance of marriage either. If the divorce rate is high it means that people aren&#39;t taking marriage seriously enough and aren&#39;t willing to put in the time and effort to make it work. Too many people bail at the first sign of trouble. It&#39;s got nothing to do with whether a couple is gay or not.

I do however acknowledge that sometimes a marraige will fail because people grow apart and simply take different paths in life. People change. Sometimes it just isn&#39;t meant to be. But many people today just cop out.

That&#39;s a fact.

Show me a gay couple that has been legally married. Is it legal anywhere? Hawaii maybe, I&#39;m not sure.

I know a couple in Canada, came to the states, CA to be exact, and were married. Seen it in the papers, not around here, but I have seen it. It&#39;s out there. :) [/b][/quote]
Yeah i think&#33;

Um homosexuality has existed for a long time. In Egyptian times Men would have sex with men and women and there wasn&#39;t any sexual preference in those times. As far as the human race to end because of homosexuality Sirc, ha ha don&#39;t count on it. It may be a blessing in disguise in fact. The current rate of procreation will lead to mass over population of the planet in the next 20 years. Also it isn&#39;t a choice; you are either born gay or straight. Ya ya nature vs. nurture, take that with a grain of salt too.

Another thing to consider is that humans are the only species that have sex for pleasure. All other species have sex to reproduce. Well there may be a few primates that have sex for pleasure but then again we didn&#39;t evolve from them did we.....

Erm, re-read Slice. I never said anything like that about the human race. Human gay couples can reproduce as easily as hetero couples.

Well you said that homosexuality simply can&#39;t exist in nature. The fact is it does. My point is, it probably should.

Okay, I guess I meant to imply that this specific rule of nature doesn&#39;t apply to humans because human homosexuals have the ability to reproduce without mating.

Homosexuals SHOULD exist in nature? Why is that?

I disagree with the ruling.

[begin opinion]

The marital union is one established by God between a man and a woman. To say that any other relationship is "just as good" is to demean his design.

My suggestion: Read Romans chapter 1. It&#39;s pretty clear.

[end opinion]
So "GOD" is a male? Wow what did he look like?



It is funny to me how people post their real feelings, then hide behind their religion. Ha ha ha ha ha ha. So every other religion got it wrong? Bah......

:hmmm: That was confusing. Are you saying that every other religion sees God as a female, or as non-sexually oriented? Either way I think you are wrong there.

Show me a gay couple that has been legally married.&nbsp; Is it legal anywhere?&nbsp; Hawaii maybe, I&#39;m not sure.

@ Sirc: It&#39;s legal in Germany. The homosexual couples can marry here and many did that when they legalized it.

@ all: I see nothing bad in it. Everyone should be allowed to be happy in his life and if this contains a same-sex marriage he should be allowed to do that.
If the church says it&#39;s bad and satanic - ok, but the church says many things I don&#39;t agree with.
BTW your children might find out on their own and what will you do if your boy or girl comes home one day and tells you: Dad/Mom I&#39;m homosexual?? [/b][/quote]
