So you aren\'t going to adopt?

Ahm..probably I got misunderstood again.I dont have anything against gay men.I believe they should have the same rights as heterosexuals.
And I dont believe gay men are sex maniacs or something.I said it only for the very very rare occasions where some gay men try to corrupt others.I dont have an absolute opinion about them.I know gays and I know bi men.And I have nothing against them

No to gay marriages.  I don\'t have any links because frankly I don\'t research the ghey lifestyle, but I have heard on news reports that studies have shown that gays tend not to be monogomous - not that heterosexuals do, but homosexuals have a higher rate of multiple partners.  

Also since we are on the topic, gays should not be allowed to adopt - and not for them, but rather the childs sake.  It is hard enough being a child to have the stigma of having gay parents added to it.

If gays want to get married then let them, it is their right to do what they want.

What does the "silky boy" stand for?What were you implying with that? :rolleyes:

I ll tell you how I know.I met gays.I have nothing against them.Or do you thing someone must be gay to know gay men?I bet you know gays they just havent revealed it to you.I bet YOU ADORE seeing lesbians.You wouldnt have any problem if lesbians were allowed to get married.Ofcourse that would serve your sexual fantasies?

Its not their right to get the benefits of being married ie. tax breaks, etc.  A civil union is fine by me, but marriage is for a union between a man and woman.  If gays are allowed to marry it mocks the entire institution of marriage.

If gay marriage is allowed but exposure of the marriage is kept to minimal it wont be a problem in society.

This just shows your lack of knowledge about the US.  This whole argument has to do with the institution of marriage, which many hold sacred.  Allowing two people of the same sex to get "married" destroys that institution by making a mockery of it.  Marriage is the union of a man and a woman not 2 men or 2 women.  Like I said I don\'t care what they do - live together, have a civil union, whatever - just don\'t call it marriage.

Thats the thing there should be no stigma for being gay, that is a very ignorant thing to say, just because you don\'t believe it is right doesn\'t make it wrong. I don\'t think being gay is natural but that doesn\'t make me right. If a kid at school makes fun of you because your parents or parent is gay he needs to be disciplined not the other way around.

If gays make political marriages "behind closed doors" how would that matter?How can they make a mockery of it if its something not publicized?Its as if it didnt happen.
And I thought this thread was generally about gay marriages not specifically for the US.I thought it was mentioned as an example.
But then again why should gays in other countries of the world have more rights than in other countries?

Because the government will recognize it.  The gays in this country have a movement which is to make sure they get as much publicity as possible, so I don\'t think it will be hidden away.  

Anyway, I can agree to disagree... my mind isn\'t going to change on the subject and I am sure the ruling in MA will be overturned by the Supreme Court or Congress.  There are not many politicians who are in favor of gay marriages.

Gay marriages should be legal.

As long as they don\'t make a mockery of the sacred holy institution... You know, the holy, scared institution where you can elope to Vegas and have Elvis marry you to an acquaintance, only to annull 55 hours later.

Let gays get married and worry about your own life.  Marriage is only special if the two people involved are committed to it, gay or otherwise.

The only mockery of the "sacred institution" is our high divorce rate.

If they\'re in love, let them commit to each other.  It\'s their lives, let them live how they want.
