Gay Marriages - your take?
« on: February 04, 2004, 03:59:28 PM »
Put aside the homophobia for a second and think about this.  Who are we to say 2 people can\'t get married of the same sex.  Gays have come a long way this past century in just about every aspect of life except maybe politics and marriage.

With all the US states creating more controversy over allowing a gay or lesbian couple to get married what do you think the outcome of it all will be in say, 50 years?

"Corrupt?"  Hmmm, nice way to start the thread.  I can see there isn\'t going to be any hostility in THIS one.  :(

You need a "I don\'t care" opinion

I dont care if they get married, and it will change.

Also; most religions in some form or fashion are against gay marriages correct? Its going to tear religions apart, and families.
Think for yourself. Question authority.

sorry, figured those who didn\'t care wouldn\'t bother to open the thread, lol.

But if a mod is bored it would be nice to have the last option say, "Undecided/doesn\'t matter to me"

Give me a break. Corrupt others? What the hell are you smoking? In no way does someone being homosexual corrupt others. It\'s not something that "spreads" or "infects" people.

And there, ya\' go THX.

Man this is sooooo heading down towards a religious road, but I\'m going to steer clear of that.

Here\'s my take... I don\'t care. However, I am against them having children. I will list my reasons if anybody cares.

^^^To what LIC said.

Agreed. Homosexuals only "corrupt" others if the others decide to turn gay. Unicron, are you afraid to turn gay if you see two gay people together?

*Gay= Two guys/Two girls

I think they should be allowed as long as they don\'t try to make any religion accept it as a fact. To the Government yes, to Religion no.

I think they should be allowed to adopt children, as long as they raise the child properly. If they pull the "I\'ll make sure to turn him gay" stuff on them then they shouln\'t. Other than that, I don\'t think a kid would be affected as much if they are raised by a homosexual couple.

Don\'t try to confuse me with what you call  facts, my mind is already made up.

LIC, make that 3 ignorant people on the boards. Sorry but that is pretty stupid. Gays are not viruses. You don\'t catch gay when you talk to a gay guy. As for my opinion, I really don\'t care. If the government decides to allow gay marriages, fine; if they don\'t, fine. Its not going to affect me seeing as I\'m not gay.

I\'d like to see that list.

And I am very much for them having the same rights that any straight couple has.  Marriage and everything else.

An added note is that the goverment and religion are seperate. No one is asking for religion\'s to accept the fact, but by law, I see nothing wrong with two homosexuals being married. The only thing that keeps it from happening now is the fact that we haven\'t truly seperated the religious backgrounds from the goverment.

Crap... well you guys have forced it out of me.

First off I don\'t want to start a religious debate, but I am going to start off by saying I am a Christian. However I\'m not your typical Bible thumping Christian, I like to generalize and make exceptions for what my own divine intellect percieves as "right" and "wrong".

Homosexuality doesn\'t seem so evil to me. Love is love. I kind of bite my tongue when people at church discuss it and say things like, "so sick", "demented, "twisted".

So let them get married, why not? Is anybody losing money or being physically harmed by it? Not really.

Now the issue about children... I believe that it is vital to have a mother, as a nurturer. Can a male play this role? Highly doubtful. Aside from all the scientific nature involved, think about the child. Unquestionably he would live a life of harrassment for having gay parents. Unless you\'re in some gay Utopia society, the kid will undergo a very rough upbringing.
