    Gay marriage = An Extension chord with 2 male ends. It's just a bad idea and quite frankly doesn't work.

    I always hear the same liberal shit over and over. "It doesn't affect me, why should I care". That is the problem with this country, nobody cares unless it affects them directly. Technically, I don't want my kids to see this perverted crap. Have to teach my kids about the "bird's and the bee's" by going out into the forest and actually watch the birds and the bees.

    Why are you taking your kids to watch gay dudes bang? Because otherwise I don't see how they would be privy to "perverted crap" unless you are taking them down to watch the stuff.

      Look at what logic just posted.

        oh... so we arent even at the point where you think homosexuality is genetic? Awesome...

        Also, isnt there a study out there that shows homosexuality exists as an offset to a gene that makes the mothers more fertile? The women in the family have a better chance to reproduce and it is offset by a homosexual male.

            I don't think sexuality should really have anything to do with the constitution. But I also don't think gays should be prevented from getting married either.

            I'd prefer the gov't not recognize my relationship. $400 bucks for tax purposes or whatever? Gee thanks, dicks.

              There is nothing that says it is genetic. It is just perverse.

                This is how I feel. Government should be out of the marriage business all together. Let people decide if they want to be legally bound to one another. I don't need the federal government to be involved at all.

                  I realize it's hard for some of you guys to understand but natural doesn't necessarily mean right or wrong. Pedophilia is "natura"l because it happens in nature. Same way as sadism or masochism or bestieality or a lot of stuff you may or may not approve of.

                  If indeed that's the definition you what to use for natural.

                    I would be on the side that basing our laws solely off of what is "natural" or "normal" in nature are both bad ideas.

                      Actually, Steve, sorry, but "normal" is generally accepted, dominant activity.

                      Abnormal is an aberation to the above.

                      Whether something occurs in nature, doesn't make it natural. A small meteor

                      lands in forest? Not normal. Maybe once in a century? aberation.

                        I think we can agree that homosexuality is not normal - the norm is that you're straight, clearly. But does that mean that anything that isn't 'normal' should be illegal? If most people choose to act in one way, should the other way be illegal? Like, most people in America are Christian of some description - catholic, protestant, mormon, whatever. That's a belief, a way of life, like you said being gay is. Should the minority religions be outlawed? Nobody's forcing you to go to a mosque and kneel before allah, much in the same way that I'd hope nobody is forcing to suck a dick (if they are then perhaps your view is more understandable!)

                          Cal and Chris.

                          That's my point and the reason I put quotation marks around the word natural. Often people, like somebody here, have used the argument that homosexuality should be accepted because it is natural since it happens in nature. Another reason given by some is that people are born that way or that it might be genetic. I'm not making a value judgement I'm just saying that none of those conditions make it right or wrong.. People are born with many different traits that we wouldn't consider proper.

                          I would say that a case could be easily made that giving perks or benefits two married people of any sex should be unconstitutional since unmarried people are denied those same things.

                          But I will leave that lawsuit to the people who give more of a shit about it than I do. 😉

                            Point well taken, Mr. Steve.

                            btw, I heard an interesting interview on the radio the other day...

                            Hannity.

                            She was gay, and was aghast that gay orgs continued to press for

                            "marriage", that she felt it was fair to have civil unions, which did get

                            them rights they wanted. She said the gay "marriage" battle was not

                            constructive, and quite counter-productive, and was causing significant

                            backlash in her own life.

                            I've never been against civil unions. Don't agree with em, but I understand

                            the fairness.

                            But the controversy over gay "marriage" - redefining real marriage, and slapping

                            people in the face with lawsuits over baking wedding cakes? Forcing pastors/etc.

                            to recognize and perform services that they know are not real?

                            And pushing the perversion behavior in the face of society?

                            Sounds like perverted gay rebels without a genuine cause to most folks.

                            That gal was correct, and she and Hannity had a great talk. Civil unions were

                            society's correction to unfairness to a very small minority.

                            The only thing left, what the conservation didn't get, is politics. vicious, self-destructive,

                            in-your-face-if-you-are-a-conservative political aggression.

                              Government should not be involved in any marriage, straight or gay. Let it be a religious ceremony if two people want to do that. If two consenting adults, of any sex, want to be legally bound then let them sign on the line. It would kill this whole debate.

                                It depends on what you call marriage I guess. If you mean it in the legal sense, then sure, a guy's "husband" should automatically have the same rights as another guy's wife, in terms of medical decisions, taxes, etc. But if you want to force a church to bless you, that's ridiculous. I'm not going to take a cheeseburger around to a hindu/muslim/jewish guy and ask him to bless it because I have the right to eat it.

                                  It actually sounds like most people here are on the same page when it comes to gay rights, bizarrely enough.

                                    because you claim every single person in an organization is corrupt. That is a common psychological

                                    that crime you refer to, those criminals should get an immediate death penalty. But all catholics didn't commit the crime,

                                          *********************************************************

                                          no "haha"... @@

                                          Liberals tend to do the same things. So I refer to a group.

                                          I don't condemn every single liberal for being a rapist, because as a liberal,

                                          they are all the same criminal.

                                          See? Would you agree that most liberals do not like Glenn Beck, or Sean Hannity?

                                          But if I said a particular liberal didn't like Glenn Beck because he was a member of that group,

                                          that would be invalid.

                                          So, what we are talking about, condemning an individual of a group, based on trends of certain

                                          reps of that group.... my point is valid.
