Did I ever happen to mention that I think gay marriage should be legal but I just disagree with it? I think anyone should be able to do whatever they like so long as it doesn't hurt another person, or another person's property.

Yeah where do you stand? I am so tired of people discriminating against them.
I am not a lesbian or bi but I just stand for equality.
I also think it's bs that guys are like "Oh hot lesbians are ok but fags are dumb," sorry if you arent down with the language

but seriously who gives a flying damn

they are people
let them get married it wont devalue a thing
they are people who love eachother
get over it
and people that say that they will cheat more than heterosexuals are stupid
it happens in all relationships
it shouldnt but it does
and also people who say they intentially spread disease
(yes people say that)
thats dumb
you cant even do a study on that no one will admit to that
it happens on accident but no one would do that

there
thats my view
whats yours


preach it chica!

"juge yet ye be juged" people shud keep that in ther heads. let gays have weddings it's not ours to choos it's up to them.

I think you mean "Judge not lest ye be judged," but I agree with the sentiment.

Forgetting Jesus' later saying: "Judge with right judgment". And I tell you this from the perspective of someone who has bisexual attraction AND is a Christian, but as such, does not act based upon those attractions, in the same way that you don't kill someone because you want to kill him, or in the same way that, just because you don't show your mom pornography just because you like pornography.

I don't really care what a gay or bi person does or does not do, I don't really care if they get married or not. I just think that if you are not gay or bi that you should butt out and let them do what they want so long as it does not involve you.

i think gay marriage should be legal. its not a crime to love some one right? and even tho you're gay, it doesnt make the love any different! i am a lesbian, but even before i realised i was i still thought gay marriage should be legal. its lame all this homophobic s**t. if you dont like gay marriages, dont have one. simple as that.

Rather respectable... Bofore now, I'd never seen someone not act on those feelings exept in fear.

Well since im a Christian, i say that they should not get married because God says that man should multiply upon the earth and how could two women or two men have a baby?- it impossible. If God wanted for men & men and Women & Women to have sex he would have made Adam & Steve not Adam & Eve.
Dont get me wrong though im not one of those people who look at them just to say " They Make Me Sick." My morals just say Gay Marriage Is Wrong.

I really don't care. But i don't understand why being gay is such a bad thing i mean like no one says omg stop lesbo..


I think that in allot of situations, that lesbo/bi sexual girls, are more of a trend then the way people are. I do think there are truly people that are homosexuals, but I also think that since so many guys fantasize about it, young girls think that if they do it, then guys will love them more. When I was growing up, if anyone thought you were that way, they treated you like a lepor

in the dictionary the definition of marrage is- the coming together of a man and a women-

That's because marriage was originally a religious institution.

I'm not sure if I've said it before, but here it is:
America has the separation of church and state.
Let me bold this for you all, if I may:

separation of church and state

Church: the religious side of marriage, weddings with the priest or the rabbi or whichever other religious ceremony you follow.

State: the legal contracts giving hospital visitation rights and inheritance, etc.

One of the main arguments against gay marriage is that it is against god's will, because he supposedly made it so that two men or two women cannot procreate, or because of some passage in the bible. However, because of the separation of church and state, this argument is invalid. It doesn't matter.

Another of the arguments is that they simply weren't meant to be together because they can't love each other or because they can't have children. This is also invalid; look at all of the straight couples or husbands and wives who hate each other or abuse each other or never, ever have kids. Does that mean that infertile people can't get married? Does it mean that from now on we have to judge whether or not someone loves another person in order for them to be married? That's ridiculous. Also, try and define love for me. Try and make a definition for the word love that everyone in the world will agree with.

Finally, another argument against gays and all of their rights, not just marriage, is that they destroy the "family unit" that supposedly keeps America running. That's also pretty ridiculous. How many people do you know that have their original mother and father, married, with siblings, a dog named Fido, and a white picket fence? Perhaps not all that, but seriously. I grew up with two half-siblings, as a b*****d child with a single mother working all day as a doctor, and a babysitter. I'm doing fine, and I can still become a valid contribution to society. I have a friend named Katie with lesbian partners as parents (she was adopted). I went to a nerd camp with her (had to take the SAT to get in). She's adorable and sweet and straight as an arrow, and she'll become a great person when she's older too.

The truth is that the mom-dad-kids-pets family setup hardly exists anymore, which means the destroying-the-family-unit argument is also null. There are single dads and single moms and divorcees and babysitters and all that jazz. The "family unit" means nothing in America nowadays and it still runs as smooth as ever (unless you want to go so far as to blame the recession on gays, in which case you should be shot in the head to rid the gene pool of your stupidity). How would a family with gays as the parental units be any worse than a single mother or father, seeing as the idea that gay raises gay (Katie as a counterexample) is totally false?

Now, in light of all this, it's hard to understand why someone who's essentially the same as any other person in a situation different than mom-dad-kids should have different rights than everyone else. Even if you believe they can't love each other, are you going to say that two people of the same gender cannot care about each other, and if they do, that they do not deserve to have the rights that even people who don't care about each other have?

I'm not saying that all priests have to agree to give gay marriage ceremonies, now. That's their right to have their own opinion and refuse to do that. There are other ways of having weddings, and I'm sure that gay couples can figure out what they want. The religious leaders and whatnot, they can do what they like. Sep. of church and state, after all. I'm only saying that gay couples deserve the same rights as straight ones, for the reasons I have stated above.
