So you think people should stop acting the way they want?
And I'd be all for trying to convince my gf to have gay sex. My wife usually just rolls her eyes when I bring up the subject.

Gay sex is not butt sex, it is sex between two people of the same sex. If you are trying to convince your gf to have a sex change, then I can understand the eyerolling. My point was that gay marriage was as much an oxymoron as straightgaysex. No, anyone can act the way they want as long as they do not break laws, but that does not mean you have to like it. If I started dressing up as a darned peacock and acting as a retard, people wouldn't be able to stop me, but they would still think of me as a retard. Act however you want, but if you act like a retard, you will be thought of as a retard. As far as acting like a retard where it is within the law, but still infringes on people's rights (gay parades, ect), I think that is down right rude and I think of people who participate in those things as rude. It is like the fetish parade that went through Chicago when I was there. I don't care if people like dressing in leather and beating each other within an inch of their lives, but please do not push it on me and keep me awake all night and stop me from going into the street. I got my own sex life, but I am not trying to push it on people who do not give a crap. That is rude and infringes on people's rights to privacy, whether the law recognizes that or not.

First of all, gay marriage has nothing to do with gay rights.
No it isn't , marriage is a social contract between two people , religion is not neccesary .Marriage is a religious institution that is recognized by the states, and it has religious underpinnings.
"Marriage is a religious institution" Was. Marriage is now a contract between 2 adults. The proof is you can divorce without religion's consent and you need lawyers to do so. And to pay duties stamps. Expensive ones...![]()

"I've been in few famous last stands, lad, and they're butcher shops. That's what Blouse's leading you into, mark my words. What'll you lot do then? We've had a few scuffles, but that's not war. Think you'll be man enough to stand, when the metal meets the meat?"
"You did, sarge", said Polly." You said you were in few last stands."
"Yeah, lad. But I was holding the metal"

That's right, I forgot religious rule number 837; Atheists can't get married. It doesn't count because God doesn't bless their union therefore they aren't really married therefore their children are all Godless sinning "bastards" (correct term if their parents weren't married in the "eyes of God").
I love how exclusionary certain religions are. I once thought of the Bible as being good and Christianity as one of the better religions, but the more I see the "pious" pontificate and preach and persecute, the more I see that it is no better than radical Islam or Scientology. It's looking more and more like a hateful, exclusionary, divisive, holier-than-thou cult which is a detriment to all mankind, to me. That being said, moderate Christians don't bother me. But you Bible-thumpers who are so consumed by it that you're paranoid and judgmental towards non-Christians should really get over yourselves. You are TOO OBSESSED with gay people. Why don't you speak out against the true evils of society more? Like female circumcision, religious persecution and intolerance, forced conscription of children, aggressive warfare, racism, sexism, gang violence, widespread drug abuse, rape, poverty, hunger, curable diseases killing the poor, dictatorships oppressing their people, and so on?
All I ever hear is gay, gay, gay. Nothing else seems to matter to you, which is messed up.
God can burn them in hell, but you should leave them alone. And since atheists can get married and have it not affect your "Godly" marriage, and polygamists in Utah can get married and not have it affect your "Godly" marriage, and Britney Spears can get divorced just hours after getting married and not have it affect your "Godly" marriage, and Bill Clinton can diddle an intern and not have it affect your "Godly" marriage, and people can marry immigrants so they can get into this country and not have it affect your "Godly" marriage, and intergendered or transgendered people can legally choose a sex and get married anyway and not have it affect your "Godly" marriage, and gay couples are allowed to be together, and they are allowed in many cases to have civil unions, then what is the big flipping deal with letting them get married?
I'm not sure why I bother. The answers I've been getting in response are actually kind of sad. I keep forgetting; this is religion. And that means we have to ignore the logical part of our brains and just nod and say "God said so" as if we speak with God on a two-way radio. I'm getting frustrated so I'm going to voluntarily take a break from this discussion for now. I'm feeling that one side, more than the other, is giving an honest attempt to bridge the gap, and the other side is just being divisive, stubborn, and bigoted.
Thankfully our society allows us to resolve our differences with a vote. Once the votes are counted and gay marriage becomes law, you can march in the streets and become "attention seekers" yourselves.

At the end of the day politics is just trash compared to the Gospel.
"The only way that has ever been discovered to have a lot of people cooperate together voluntarily is through the free market. And that's why it's so essential to preserving individual freedom.” -- Milton Friedman
"The urge to save humanity is almost always a false front for the urge to rule." -- H. L. Mencken

Talk about getting things back to frontWrong Tribesy. The word marriage over the centuries came to describe the Holy Institution ordaned by God.
So lets see if I can put it politely without insulting your "intelligence" too much
errrrr...if the word became something over the centuries what were its origins before it became that new thing ?
