Gay marriage is a question of religion not legality!

[ArmstrongSparkle]

I see no reason for gay marriage to be illegal. Marriage is a choice that two humans make to show their love for one another. What gives someone the right to deny that to people?
In the first amendment it prohibits making laws that impedes the free exercise of religion. You can be christian, you can be atheist, you can be Muslim, you can be Hindu, you can be Buddhist, but for some reason you can't be gay. It's just a bunch of fearful people too insecure about themselves to have beliefs different from their own. Try as I might, I cannot think of a good argument for banning gay marriage.I'm not gay, but I have friends who are and I do not think it's right to infringe on their liberty!

That's what I've been thinking about this. Yet, the first amendment is under siege because some powerful people are big babies...

Exactly. Though it isn't just the powerful people that can't handle diversity. Who elected the big babies? A bunch of little babies.

I wish I could have every one of those be shipped to an island to get a taste of their own medicine.

There are too many of them for an island. Let them have a country to themselves! Then they can practice their hypocrisy in peace.

If they go off starting a war, thinking that they are better than anybody else, I'm going to sit back and munch on popcorn.

But your right to be happy is infringing upon my right to discriminate against people! dramallama dramallama

being gay is not a religion, and hence not protected in 'freedom of religion' in the first ammendment.

Freedom of religion means nobody is bound by religious rules unless they want to be. If you're gay, and don't want to live by the whole "being gay is a sin" thing, that means nobody has the legal right to cause you any harm just because you're gay.

This statement equates being gay to being an established religion, such as the ones stated here. Gay is a sexual orientation, not a religion.

I never said being gay is a religion. Do you need basic reading skills? I have a Bachelor's English, and have published a book.

And that statement does not equate being gay to a religion. It simply implies that being gay is less popular than being part of those religions, which is a bit ridiculous to say, because it's not like you can't be gay and be part of any religion you want. You don't need to choose one or the other and figure out which is better.
