Oklahoma's domino has fallen

[HAnnA MArin County]

Ah, yes, the procreation argument regarding marriage. Do these right-wing goons ever stop and listen to how ridiculous they sound when making such pathetic claims? Okay, so if marriage is supposed to be all about procreation, then does that mean that infertile/sterile heterosexual couples cannot get married, or a heterosexual couple in their 70s, for that matter? If marriage is supposed to be about procreation and if the government can decide that only heterosexual couples can marry, does it also have the right to mandate procreation? The decision to have children is just that: a decision. Marriage is NOT about procreation. If you can use gender and sexual orientation to deny someone the right to be married, then why not include age or race? Oh, wait...

These arguments are so very interesting coming from the side that claims to be for limited government. Stop using religion to justify your bigotry against a minority of people who, contrary to your side's way of thinking, do not choose to be the way we are. Gay people live and breathe the same as straight people, we work in the same workforce as straight people and pay the same taxes to the same government only to be treated like second-class citizens simply because your magical book of fairy tales written millions of years ago contains six verses about how someone was born is "wrong." The same book that says that men should not listen to women, wives should be submissive to husbands, children who disobey their parents and stray from their religion should be stoned to death, eating pork and lobster is an abomination, and that it's totally fine for fathers to give their virgin daughters to strangers to be raped. Perhaps your side would be well advised to take your message of "love" to Uganda and Iran where it's totally okay to hang and stone gay people. 

Isn't it so ironic that a country that was founded to allow freedom from religious persecution is now attempting to use religion to persecute freedoms?
