Gay Marriages Should Be Denied.

so now you want to have families of different generations living in the same household marrying each other?

 

No. Now answer the question.

 

Nothing to say? You constantly challenge any statement I make and demand proof. And when it is provided you have nothing to say. Whats the point?

 

Funny people...

Question: Why is it that so many people are concerned with the marital status of carpet-munchers and (*)(*)(*)(*)? Why on Earth does anyone care?

Do they hurt anyone?
NO

Do they cause and/or perpetuate disease?
NO

Do they pose a threat to the sanctity of marriage?
NO

Do they pay taxes?
YES

Do they work?
YES

Are they generally just peaceful, nice people?
YES

Honestly...I can't think of a single rational reason why homosexual people should not be afforded the monotony and headaches of marriage.

Unless...of course...certain people FEAR homosexuals?
Now why would anyone FEAR them?
Can you say...latent homosexual tenancies?

But perhaps these closed-minded people are correct...perhaps homosexuality is best kept in its place...

...behind the church alter after choir practice...

 

We dont give out tax breaks and governmental entitlements because we cant think of a good reason NOT to do so but instead do so to provide some general benefit to society.
Using your logic, they should give the rights of marriage to any two consenting adults who wish to receive them. And yet here you are advocating for "gay marriage"

 

what would you like me to say? I asked for a cite, and you provided one. well done.

 

And here I thought that politicians created the tax breaks for married people because they themselves were married and they wanted a tax break.

 

I'm still not getting you.

I am past child bearing age. Suppose that I want to marry again - do you have a problem with that?

(I mean if I want to mrry a man - which would be considerably more likely than me wanting to marry a woman)

 

Noooooooo, now answer the question instead of seeing how long you can avoid it.

 

I don't understand what your question is.

it seem sthat you have a problem with people marrying for purposes other than procreation.

.... although it seems you are very kindly making an exception for me.

 

Which words dont you understand?

 

none of them.

its that its OK for some - but not for others....

that bit I don't get.

 

I am one of the most conservative people you will ever meet, but I am liberal about this one subject. Why does the Gov't have to interfer with two consenting adults lives? They have no right. If a church is will to wed two men or two women then let them reap the benefits of a married man and women. Another thing I, I will not tolerate such hate, and discriminate. It is extremely rude. Think of someone else other than yourself for once.

 

???? Heterosexuals arent extended the benefits, entitlements and obligations of marriage because they screw each other. They are extended these benefits because when heterosexuals screw each other, children are frequently the result. When homosexuals screw each other, children are NEVER the result. Sooooooo what possible justification could there be for treating couples who screw, differently from those who do not? At this point its pretty obvious you have no answer and just to dishonest to admit it.

 

Rather odd question since what you are insisting is that government interfere in the lives of homosexuals by licensing and regulating their relationships that have never been licensed and regulated before.

 

Why don't you share the truth more readily in this matter? There ARE states which license gay marriage. And there are good reasons why states regulate/certify certain aspects of marriage.

 

Hes not advocating for marriage in those 6 states Mod edit: Insult , they already have it.

 

I thought your argument didn't hinge on procreation?

Procreation has nothing to do with marriage. You have never been able to establish a link between the two yet you parrot the same argument over and over.

 

This is an urban legend. It stems from looking at the marriage vs. divorce rates. There are typically twice as many marriages as divorce within a 12-month survey period. This does not mean that half of all marriages end in divorce.

More simply put, if 100 people get married in a given year, and 50 people get divorced in that same year it doesn't mean that 50 of those marriages ended in divorce.

Also, note that California, Georgia, Hawaii, Indiana, Louisana and Minnesota do not report.

 

You're right, anyone can declare themselves married. You can marry your dog if you want. However, there is no societal benefit to you marrying your dog so you will not get a marriage license. You could have sex with your dog and have a wonderful relationship but, it will not contribute a human child and a nuclear family which is the intent of civil support for the institution of marriage in the U.S.

 

I agree with you.

You know its funny how many conservatives in here complain that government interfers too much in our lives, but when it comes to abortion or marraige, they want the government to get involved.

 

Government does not 'interfere' in a heterosexual marriage in grants privileges to the heterosexual union in order to support the nuclear family which is at the foundation of our society.

 

Thats one opinion.

 

No it's fact. You can get married to whoever or whatever you want. The government will not 'interfere' with your martial bliss.

 

If its a heterosexual marriage?
