the bible also says it's ok to sell your daughter into slavery it's an old book with antiquated ideas. people use obscure passages to support prejudice and wrap it up with words like "family values"

gay people have every right to be as miserable as straight people

Yes, it's love. They can't change the way they feel. Why should they have to be told what to do?


Ignorant, brainwashed people are against gay marriage.

And if you asked those people "would it directly affect you if these two gay people got married?" Do you think they would say yes?

Probably not.

Perhaps they want something to b*tch about...

Frankly, I could care less if homosexuals want to marry.. It doesn't hurt me nor does it affect how I live in any way.

I think they're bored and try to manipulate the scripture to agree with them, but what they are failing to recognize is that homosexuality has been present in history from anciet civilizations.

were not supose to be a religion were just suppose to believe in God and his word. religion rules and judges. the Bible wants us to love everyone not judge them. i love God. im far from perfect. the Bible says one sin is the same as the other. adulty, lieing, stealing killing. so a christian whos in church who cheats on his wife is just as bad. were suppose to try to follow God, so if someone is gay and loves God and trys to live right, hes just like the rest of us. not all Bible believers condem gays, not all are judgemental. God is love, religion isnt. and even if you dont believe in him or you are out there doing what ever, God still loves you. dont listen to those who claim a religion, even if they are the only Bible you see. you all are special to him. yes the Bible does speak against homosexuality, but he speaks about other things. king david was an adulter and a murderer. all sins are equal, the only reason he was forgiven was he asked and he worshipped God.

The Bible also says that you shouldn't have sex unless you are trying to procreate. In other words, most of us are going to hell

Simple, its an excuse to be a bigoted ******* and get away with it. Same thing with racism and sexism; their "religion" justifies the misbehavior so our society is stupid enough to go along with it because it hide under the skirt of "religion" Its bullshit!

Marriage is a right not a privilege. No one should be denied marriage unless they are under the age of 18. (But that is for different reasons). People should not be denied marriage because of race, because the couple is interracial, or because the couple is the same sex.

I really dont understand the big deal about this. These people's decisions really have no impact on our lives (with the exception that it may strengthen the economy and improve our lives). No one is holding a gun to your head and tell you that you have to marry a same sex partner. Get over yourself.

Marriage has been and still is a religous ceramony. Their are those who do not believe in marriage and instead get a civil union, which many states allow for homosexuals. In most religions homosexuality is viewed as ungoddly or unnatural. You do not have to agree with them, but they do not have to agree with you. I think if our society wants to grant civil rights to individuals to have a domestic partner, than it is up to the people to decide if that is the way they want their society to go. I do not agree that any religous institution should be forced to agree with a lifestyle that is considered to be wrong by their own beliefs. Nor do I agree that homosexual couples have the right to force men of religion to perform these marriages. And yes many have sued and taken to court because men of the Bible did not want to do this. You have to find another way around that without taking away someone elses rights.

now come on.
haven't you been to the USA's christian churches?
There in the pews sit :
Wife Beaters
Rapists
Rape Mongers
dirty cops that VICTIMIZE citizens
slimey company owners Imperiling People while making their dollars off of INJURIES to especially the "working class" directly and injuries to Earth to the People in outer population too... the $$$ over the people of course


and the preachers taking in their blood money.


Oh but heh...
Rapists are welcomed ... where you think it over... heterosexual males most often are USA rapists.

These predators PRIMARILY RAPE the female lives.

QUITE TRUE... but now now NEVER SEE the JESUSYs going on and DEMANDING THE RAPING CEASE... naaah


ALOT of folks do BELIEVE the christain churches want to ensure "heteroism" so that RAPE will not diminish.
!

You don't find the christian church folk ever marching and demanding "100% = WOMEN!"
uh uh

Never find them of the "Jesus" talk of churching out there DEMANDING RELENTLESSLY "NO TOLERANCE OF RAPING OUR PEOPLE!" why no that is a primarily heterosxual male crime.

AND MANY POINT OUT TO that you don't find the church pews of the JESUS people of church it going themes "DEMAND absolutely NOT ONE dirty cop in the USA!" ooopsy guess what group is primarily the USA scum cops?

ALL good points that 7 billion people WORLD WIDE make
and some 100s millions across the USA make too.


WE rather don't truly CARE about people in their choice of WHO is THE LIFE PARTNER... not the skin tone issues, nor the Nations... NOR genders... why Not even "Say now he has short hair and hers is medium length! That will NOT work! No marriage!"
but think about it... it is bigotry.

solely only bigotry.

and what is the other... those CRIMES by the primarily USA hetero males? No not bigotry they are REAL HEINOUS AND TERRORISM CRIMES! Ahmmm.

So could be that some got it exactly right... the christian churches are all full of INCITING abuse to especially female lives while angling ways to CONTINUE crime by their hetero males.

and since LESBIANS well, now obviously,
lesbians won't be around the MAIN USA CRIMINAL the hetero males much... would be logical to see why TARGET LESBIANS and try to deny RIGHTS actually their RIGHTS as

to the GAY MEN because well, those guys ARE NOT the ones ANXIOUS to hang out with the RAPISTS of the female lives the hetero males are taking and harming! Nope. They don't care for being involved with female lives and so gosh, can't get them into the CLAN of abusing the females. Not by rape.
ahhhh.

It's not so much that people try to imposes their own idea of morality to other but more of what it cost to the insurance industries .That carefree lifestyle has many medical expense that come with it that the insurance company would not want to insure .It comes down to propaganda the insurance industries fool others into believing that its a moral issues .

LMFAO, bottom line in all of this? RELIGION IS MAN MADE- NOT the word of God. If there is a God I doubt he would be so petty to HATE against NATURAL feelings of LOVE. And who ever says it's UNNATURAL, you are UNEDUCATED and obviously haven't learned of the MULTIPLE homosexual relationships that are found throughout nature. Don't let any religious bigot tell you otherwise!

PS- To anyone who is against gay marriage, CHURCH AND STATE ARE SEPARATE, YOUR RELIGION IS NOT MINE!!! AND SOON YOU WILL HAVE TO DEAL WITH GAY MARRIAGE EVERYWHERE! IT WILL HAPPEN! CRY ME A RIVER, BUILD A BRIDGE AND GET OVER IT!!

In religion, marriage isn't about love - it's about procreation. Gay people can't procreate with each other... (well, they couldn't in the days when religious doctrines were written.. ).

ps - I support gay marriage, in-real-life, marriage isn't just about procreation anymore.

The bible condemns it as unclean and vulgar, the same bible that says many other things are unclean and vulgar, and women are nothing.
They are against gay people maybe because they are afraid of them, or afraid of changes in the world or the bible, or they feel that since the bible says it is wrong they are going against god and for it to be allowed the country would be going against god, they have a misunderstanding and misinterpretation fo the bible....I don't know, those are all the reasons I can think of at the moment.

I don't know, I don't get it. And, what I really don't understand is how people want gay marriage to be illegal because of their religion. I mean really, what does someone's religion have to do with the laws of a nation/state/etc.

Most of the religions are very old, when there weren't so many people on earth, and the churches, mosques, and synagogues promoted extensive procreation within marriage to expand the number of church members who would tithe, thus the anti-abortion and anti-birth control laws, the no sex outside marriage rules, and the anti-gay rules. Self-confident religions, like Episcopals and Methodists within the Christian umbrella, have dropped the antiquated rules against gay marriage. The others will follow, but churches evolve slowly; that's not necessarily a bad thing. In this case, yes, but not always.

Religions are designed to polarize what naturally would be unified - the human race - so they can scare their members into giving money.
Gays are, at this time, easy targets. In Massachusetts, where I am, gays are allowed to marry and enjoy the legal benefits of that union.
Love takes many forms and is a divine emotion. I wish all who read this Love. I wish all who never read this Love....

They were so consumed by their lust that they were trying to knock down the door to have sex with the angels!!!! Even the children! Tell me that is not appalling to you? Look at King David and Johnathan, they were to men who truely loved eachother, but they were not gay. Being gay isn't natural it is physical sin, if you have lust in your heart for someone that is not your wife or husband than you have committed adultry. We were created man and woman to help one another and to procreate, make babies! You cannot get two men or two women together and make a baby, no. Not without a third party which is adultry. It just isn't natural at all! And the bible is clear that homosexuals will not inherit the kingdom of God, we need to learn to love, We worship God with all of our hearts and all of our soul and all of our strengh right, then we love our spouces like a lover and a brother(I'm a girl) and others like brothers and sisters without a hint of lust. There was a time a long long time ago when I didn't know what to believe or who to love. I have been able to repent fully and to give my husband all of my love and lust. If I can take my lust back from the wrong person and give it to the right person than so can homosexuals give their love and lust to a woman. They choose not to making false claims that they were born that way well I don't believe it cause I had to repent. Now I am pure and have conqured my own lust, I knew that I needed it, I just had to put it in the right places, it's not as hard as people think, self control is a fruit of the Spirit. It sure is without him I couldnt' be convinced enough to repent. But I was and I did. Same is possible for homosexuals. Plus one of the reasons why demons became demons was because some of the angels looked down to earth and saw that the women were beautiful and fabricated human bodies for themselves to become their husbands and their children were giants and bullies God put an end to it and condemned those Angels, God's will is God's will no matter how much people want to desensitize themselves, the bible warns us not to fool ourselves when it comes to this because one day He will have his day. No exceptions.
