Gay Marriage- a general discussion.

[??????????]

The best quote ever about this subject on this forum. I still crack up about it!


Some of you will remember.

I HATE GUY PEOPLE
BUT I PRAY FOR THEM

My question:

IF YOUR NEIGHBOR IS GAY, AND HE MARRIES ANOTHER GAY PERSON, HOW DOES THAT HARM YOU?

Well for one, I don't want my kids to see two guys kissing out on the front lawn. Also, If they was living in NC they would have rocks thrown that there house and I dont want someone coming by and shooting at them and miss and hit me or any my kids.....

What makes me think you would take or have taken, (I don't know if you have them) your kids to see Passion of the Christ, a movie with much more horrifing scenes then two men kissing. Teach your kids to accept people who are different, not shut them down. Now that is a real logical argument, your second one. I guess you couldn't live in the South during the Civil Rights Movement, you would probably have a black neighor and rocks were thrown at their houses plenty of times.

I will teach my kids(when I have them) the same way as my mom. Gay people are wrong for beging gay. The Bilbe preaches that it is wrong...Also what does the Passion have to do with anything?

My point with Passion is, two men kissing would be rated PG (possibly PG-13, depending on who is actually doing the ratings, although Holloywood is liberal, and more accepting of gays) while seeing Jesus get burned and all that stuff was rated R and is a bit more disturbing.

"Gay people are wrong for being gay" That is about the craziest thing I have ever heard. A) How is a person "wrong" B) What would you do if a gay man saved your child from drowning in a pool or burning in a fire?

I judge things by my own common sense, not the bible's opinion's.

What a liberal... thing someone can't be wrong.... Gau people are wrong because the Bible says so, and trust me God wrote the bible thorough men.. and God has awhole lot more common sense then you.

Yea I can tell J

"Gays are wrong because the bible says so" Think for yourself!

Hmm ok i will go by the bible and you won't... then we will see who goes to heaven and who goes to hell....

Well, at least I know I'll find Albert Einstein and Mohandus Ghandi waiting for me in hell.

With Ghandi there at least you'll have Slurpees..... lol

Come again! <Apu from the Simpsons>

Well you see theres your problem. You cant shield them. They could be taught at school by a lesbian, could have their arm put in a cast by a gay doctor, or they could drive the ambulance that takes them to hospital. You wouldn't know. The vast majority of gay men and women simply knuckle down and get on with their lives and interact with everyone elses. In the UK a gay man is the junior Minister for Education, and Tony Blair think's he's doing a damn fine job. A lesbian actress voiced a fish in Finding Nemo for heavens sake! And me? I want to teach History, a subject I love to children and teenagers, and yes I'm gay. Shelter your children if you wish, but if they rebel or become 'immoral' in your view, you will have nothing to blame but your own parenting.

Of course you can't shelter your children. BUT you have to teach them right from wrong in regards to homosexuality.

I have a question for you. Why do liberals such as yourself need to lower your arguments to personal insults as a starting point? Could it be you are defending the wrong position?

Stop talking and answer the question. There were over 50 posts between when akno first asked his question to when  some poor excuse for an answer was posted.

Though I view homosexual marriage as disturbing and homosexual acts as disgusting, I must say that the states should be left up to the legalization of gay marriage. If a particular state wants it legalized it should be put on the ballot and let the people decide. Much like abortion. That is my answer to the question. I do no believe my moral beliefs (in this situation) should interfere with legal processes.

Do any foreign countries have pro-gay marriage laws?

The Netherlands I believe.

if you look at the Netherlands standar of living (http://www.odci.gov/cia/publications/factbook/geos/nl.html) and compare it to the US's standard of living (http://www.odci.gov/cia/publications/factbook/geos/us.html), the netherlands is superior in the majority of significant categories. And this is from a US biased site, too!

Less land and fewer people.
