This news will upset some of you. This news will gladden some of you. This news may be met with a "this issue is dragging on far too much" by most of the rest of you.

Nonetheless, I pass the message on that gay marriage is now fully legal in the state of Conneticut.

My only question is whether this ruling is subject to appeal.

Cenere I'm not going to preach or try to shove this down your throat, but what you said about them not getting into our churches is wrong. they take over the media who have no problem bashing christians, but when homosexuals are mentioned they back off very quickly and support them. I have no problem with people hiring homosexuals helping them giving them food money or anything. They need to get out of the media and let everyone live their life. I agree about racism that is terrible, but not wanting homosexuals to shove thier stuff down our throat through the media and radio and all other means of communication is not racism sexism or any other hatefull matter it's called freedom. This country was founded under a republic which means goverment has limited control and is confined by the law leaving the people alone, so leave the people alone and stop promoting this stuff everywear and let homosexuals and straits alike live thier own life.

And this isn't middle ground! This is like making a game where a boy has to catch a girl (like tag), which is by definition boy/girl, and then saying that that is the middle-ground option. That is the base, and the extremes go onwards after that.


Right, and any other form of "tag" should be belittled? I always thought freeze tag was the better game.

But marriage isn't a game, it's supposed to be a serious commitment, you can hardly compare the two accurately. Or are the ideals behind marriage that flimsy?

Me too.

While I am slightly against gay marriage, I'd have to agree, marriage cannot be compared to tag, not even freeze tag.

That's all well and good, but the issue here is that there are people who don't want homosexuals to live their lives completely freely. There are people who have a problem with gay marriage and don't want to allow.

I agree about racism that is terrible, but not wanting homosexuals to shove thier stuff down our throat through the media and radio and all other means of communication is not racism sexism or any other hatefull matter it's called freedom


They don't shove it down your throat, they advocate for it, it's part of the process for obtaining change. They have to inform people of the problem at hand and earn a backing, otherwise nothing is going to happen to fix them issue.

When you want something you have to say so right? If the people who give it to you won't really listen, but you REALLY want it you say so louder right? It's the same concept.

By the way when did Cenere post thes thoughts? I haven't seen something from him since the start of the topic. Try to incoporate some quotes with your arguments in the future please.

It's always been since the people against gay marriage cannot figure out a reasonable explanation so they try to slander them by calling them vicious names

Debate, discussion, dispute, deliberation, consideration, contention, argument, take your pick, it really makes no difference what you want to call it. You're not focusing on the point at hand.

In retrospect I realize this sounds somewhat brusque, I wasn't attempting to come off that way. I was only asking that posters use quotes to help the flow of conversation.

So, gay people are okay so long as they're not open about it?

Equal rights means equal on all grounds, including expression.

Definition of argument, as used by Wigginometry is more along the lines of &quotropositional statement with supporting statement", more so than &quoteople screaming at each other".

Carry on!

Apart from being disturbing, they don't post a threat. No, if you give them marriage rights, they will settle down and not give anyone trouble. Seriously, what's the problem with someone being gay? And don't spout Scripture all over me.

Actually my argument boils down to the fact that gays should be allowed to marry, settle down and lead normal, besides the point that they are gay, lives.

What's the problem about gays; no one has came up with an argument that being gay poses some form of danger apart from the fact that the Heavens don't appreciate it. All the other arguments that they are violent criminals, drug addicts, molesters, serial rapists can be torn apart.

Show me the statistics that being gay leads to all these things. Show me a certified document written by experts that show how gays have higher crime rates than normal people. If not, what's so wrong about them, what's so wrong about granting them marry.

My bad, the last sentence has grammatical errors. I meant to say, 'what's so wrong about granting them the right to marry.
