Consecrated Oblivion Torrent_Of_Octane Consecrated Oblivion Torrent_Of_Octane Nope. Everyone is entitled to the same thing, that means even you, a homosexual, have the right to get married under the legal definition of marriage. You're equal to us. You do. Whats so surprising about it? I think you misunderstood what I'm saying. Please reread it in context. That was an refutation to the claim that gays dont have equal rights. I claim that equal rights already exist. |

We don't have equal rights. We don't have the right to marry those to whom we're attracted/in love (well, I do; I'm pansexual, but that's not the point) Whether there's a legal premise for that or not, doesn't matter; it would still be incorrect to say we have equal rights. |

Welcome the the Chatterbox! =D
You'll find the best answer to this to be a simple: Marriage was originally (Before Christianity) Between manxwoman, manxman. . . Therefore: marriage can apply to anyone Moreover: Gays get pissed because without the right to marriae then they don't really have equal rights, do they? But that's really not true because they have the right to marry... just doesn't say to who or what. I'm sure you could legally marry a lamp post. but that would cause an uproar I'm done. Now tthen:  |

OneWithDunamis Because by definition a marriage is the union between a man and a woman. If they change the definition of this word, what other words will they change next? Communication will break down and everything becomes ambiguous. Look at the Tower of Babel. They couldn't communicate with each other and an entire nation of people was scattered. Don't be selfish. Think of the greater good of society, if you intend to stay with the society you're familiar with. Definition of marriage is ALREADY ambiguous: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marriage "...is a contract that creates kinship." Nothing on female/male http://wordnetweb.princeton.edu/perl/webwn?s=married "..state of being married." Again nothing on gender http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/MARRIAGE "state of being married to opposite gender". Etc. etc. |
