I am straight and let me tell you, it is absolutely horrendus!

How the **** can they call this the land of the free and pull this god **** card.

The bigotry is never going to end sadly because humans are really lousy creatures...

I always wondered what would happen if you just called marriage something else? Then the churches can't get that hurt...

Besides most religions say you can't be gay anyway..

Now that I think about it, why do people HAVE to get married to be together?

People are probably going to start calling me out for it being against my religion (you know who you are) but i have nothing against homosexuals.

same difference.

im straight but our law makers are breaking the constitution they arent giving equal rights

WRONG. They say you can't engage in sexual actions.

i thought separate but equal is inherently unequal was w/ regard to water fountains and stuff like that............ if the difference is getting married by a priest or getting joined legally by someone other than a religious official then it doesn't matter if you slap a different name on it... its the same thing.

you can just be like

you-"we're husband and husband"....

them-"when did you get married"

you- "we didn't"



...just wanted to apply the rainbow troll face somehow xD

....didn't work... but you know what I meant to have put up there :'(... just user ur imagination.

forgive my potential double post

Yet what is the inherent barrier stopping gays from being married? Let it be said that there is a seperation of Church and State. Regardless of how anyone feels about homosexuality what is the real cause for the discrimination?

The religious conservatives are so stubborn that an amendment will not be made until Congress is largely liberal.

I guess that's human nature though; everyone being a **** to each other.

So if it were passed, would the Government implement that Churches are mandated to marry gay couples? Or would we assume that it would just be bound by the state?

I don't have any problem with homosexuality. I am straight, but i feel like people who are gay can't really help it, like they don't choose to be gay. As long as they aren't trying to flirt with me all the time I have no problems whatsoever. They are human beings just like us. If they happen to like the same sex then that's just the way it is, and they should be treated no differently.

i believe that your sexual orientation is irrevilivent to my thoughts on you as a person. i have lots of gay friends. i dont give a **** if they are gay really XD. people just need to learn to treat people like regular human beings. christians are supposed believe people are all equal under the eyes of god, so do it. they are people with emotions and feelings just like you and me. and this doesnt just go for christians either, dont feel like im attacking you the religion as a whole. i mean christians that feel being gay is wrong becasue of religous purposes, so bassically people who think that way.

the constitution of the US states that all people are givin equal rights, guess not.

This isn't much of a discussion left anymore. Those laws will go with time, old people die, and just about every person I know [high schoolers and stuff] would promote a removal of such laws. I'm sure that in the future this stuff is going to go.
