and to the guy who said bing a homo is an abomination WHY????? none of the people who dont apprve of it will give me a REAL ANSWER!!! they just say its wrong WHY!!!!!!
Well to the guy who said its an abomination then it wont be a marriage in gods eyes by what your saying so why dont you just let it go if what your saying is true than you already won the argument
To D. Jimenez i dont think this topic is for you if you have no opinion that was a waste of an answer
I ALREADY SAID THATS WHAT I CALL MY SISTER AS A JOKE I DIDNT CALL ANY OF YOU DIKES SO JUST SHUT THE F*CK UP ABOUT IT ALREADY ONE PERSON COMPLAINING IS ENOUGH
PEOPLE SHUT UP ABOUT THE DIKE THING ALREADY ITS WHAT I CALL MY SISTER AS A JOKE SHE ISNT COMPLAINING ABOUT IT SO YOU SHOULDNT EITHER
Nick .M wtf do you mean where not destorying anybody i just want every body to have some of that "Free Will" people always talk about but never grant it to anyone
Nick. M what do you mean i never told you to leave this thread this is a debate isnt it? I JUST WANT ONE logical reason you dont want gays to get married and ONE reason you cant give them the free will which striaght people can use so frivolously but gay people can and you expect me not to disagree with you one bit when my sister my blood is gay?
Nick . M i would love you to stay and debate since your the only one here who is actually giveing me a so far correct statement so just put all your views out in the open so we can begin and take it from there
well one reason if one of them has health insurance and the other one dosent then what do you expect the one to do if he breaks a single bone in his body
Another Reason is if one of them is on machines to live and the other gay person will have no say in what the family dose pull the plug or other wise so it really means the one who knos them best will not be in any controll of if they kill his "better half"
actually as long as there not married the other spouse will not be considered family and will not have health care benifets and i am catholic religiously confused (something i made up) i dont really know what to think in terms of religion as of right now
to cate i have know idea what your talking about asking a question isnt starting anything i just want peoples views thank you for your help but i must say that i know your trying to get to me by saying i cant handel this topic and maybe your right but if you expect me not to be mad when people stare at my sister every day like she isnt welcome and they put my sister through all that stress and so yes i will take my anger and live with it but thanks again for your help
Nick .M its called Civil Union but i guess now that i understand you and i know why the way you feel this isnt a debate any more so just leave it at opinions i understand you and you have been of alot of help since your one of the few who answered the question correctly

marriage what created by God and He intended to be between one man and one woman. why not have polygamy? or why cant siblings marry? if you change the definition of marriage you change the definition of a family then you change the definition of a culture. i have nothing against gay people or people being gay... i just dont think they can get married, call it something else
its all apart of a "secular agenda" to destroy morals and values and religions of all types. once you have gay marriage what will you want next???
i dont even like it when they adopt children. those kids grow up without a mom or a dad and its not healthy. thousands of kids grow up without moms or dads however and some turn out great but most do not succeed or some males have self-esteem issues with girls when they dont have fathers its not natural
this question im guessing was intended for people like me who oppose gay marriage so all of these butt kissers why are you even on this thread, and zeke if you question my answer why have this thread? you just want people to agree with you?
if you want to go back n forth about this and debate this issue just tell me and il stay and talk if you are
-its all pretty much out there so answer this question
what cant they do without marriage..?
-health insurance is paid per person in a family the more people you have the more you have to pay... so i donno what you mean
-that is true and that ive found is the only issue... why cant they call it something else such as domestic partnership its fine that gays are together because you cant stop them from loving eachother but why cant they call it something else so we dont wreck the sanctity of marriage that was created by God?
-cool so you have some sort of christian roots so you might know where im coming from... i have gay family members too. gay christian family members. now my true belief of gays is that its a "trial" throughout their life. they just have to deny their sexual desires, but even if they give in to those they still have time to repent and turn to God so i do believe they can be saved unlike some extremest christians who think theyl just burn in hell.
-gay people are only 2% of the entire human population so people are going to stop and stare when they see that oh so small 2% of mankind. now me living in california see homosexuals more often so we dont stare as much and they are more tolerated over here, even though we dont agree with what they believe in.
- nice talking with you and il pray for you and ur sister.
God bless

No, because that is your own personal choice. Just like it is someone elses choice to be in a gay marriage. Having your own beliefs/opinions won't make you a bad person, only a persons actions do.

I completely agree with you. There are a lot of things I don't like. Tattoo's, abortions, etc...Instead of wanting to make them illegal, I just make sure I don't do those things. I have NO RIGHT to demand that others don't do those things, because i'm not an idiot, i know that a woman aborting her baby, or someone getting tattooed, or people of the same sex getting married isn't hurting me in any way. Plus if you have a good family it will be easy to pass your values on to them about all these things, making it easier for them to not partake in those things that may bother you. I agree with you 100%. So tired of people using the slippery slope anology which is that if gays marry it will lead to other stupid things like animals marrying, etc. People that use that approach are completely stupid.

Actually, YOU started the argument, by asking this question. My family, friends and acquaintances all agree that gay marriage is wrong. My husband and I agree it's wrong. We aren't raining on anybody's parade. As a matter of fact, we talk to people who are gay every day. I have employees who are gay. However, I do not allow any kind of conversation regarding their so-called "rights" in my office. Most of my employees are not gay and it isn't fair to them. Heterosexual people are not interested in what gay people think they "deserve". We don't support something that is, in our belief, immoral. It's just the way it is.
That said, why don't I believe in gay marriage? If we were meant to be gay, we would have been made that way. If we were meant to be accepting of gay people, we would be. Deep down in most people's hearts, we know that the man and the woman are the intimate couple. We were created that way.
You seem to be such an angry person. Maybe this topic is a little to sensitive for you.

Yeah.......
Um...I don't really care.
People can live how they want.
I'm straight, I have a boyfriend. I just want to make the most of my life and be succesful, I don't care what other people do.

I voted yes on prop 8. And not because I am really against gay marriage per say. Its just super hilarious seeing gay people flip
same thrill I get from eating meat/ abusing animals infront of vegans

Sexual orientation is a gift.
It is not chosen.
Therefore, it's a natural gift to love and be together with all benefits possible.
- Anonymous1 decade ago
Yeah, I agree. It was great until you called her a "dike." Please, we prefer to be called lesbians.
