I think they already do this every year. It's called Pride or something.

It's the only thing in the world more important right now than global warming.

^ That might be the stupidest thing I've seen all week. People need to get out of this 2000 year old, outdated definition.

His response about a thruple or quaduple (or whatever) doesn't fit into what the guy is asking. He is just circumventing the actual question with a bogus scenario.

Change the law so that "marriage" is defined as a union of two people, not a man and a woman - and not this stupid ass thruple crap.

If one person wants to enter a union of marriage with a member of the same sex, why not let them? How is that going to impact my life? I might see them in public!? GASP!

Yes, you could argue that if we let them get married, then they can file taxes jointly and not pay in as much, and that would take money out of the system. Our tax dollars are already blown on dumb shit already that this wouldn't even make a dent.

I could not agree with this sarcastic statement more. This is so not important that it shouldn't even be at the Supreme Court level. Let them get married, be happy or be miserable. This shouldn't even be an issue.

Oh, so the definition of "marriage" is the problem and not the fact that what he wants is really a "civil union"? Wrong. I love how all these "oppressed what-ever wannabes" need to rewrite everything to suit their wants. He is 100% correct that a "marriage is the joining of two complimentary sexes to form a family". You don't have to like it one bit, but it is a fact. And no matter how you want to divert from that, it's still a fact. And that was the point he was making. And he is correct that nobody is stopping him from getting married. It is his choice to be with another man, nobody is forcing that on him. He has the choice to get married to a person of the opposite sex, but chooses not to. So you can call it what ever you want, but is not a marriage by DEFINITION.

I do agree that the SCOTUS should leave this alone, its not their call to make. And you know why? Because nobody's Constitutional right are being violated.

At some point we need to look at the bigger picture of what's really important, and this ain't it.

Until this! We can get a few more dudes and form an octuple! So many wangs - but none of us are getting married. Not the five or six of us. Cause that is not marriage. Thats polygamy. I lived in Utah for 12 years. I know polygamy.

You keep emphasizing your DEFINITION. Your fact. His fact. You two have so much in common maybe you should form a civil union.

I'm sorry, allow me to speak. This definition. Its outdated. Come towards the light... Who cares if its called a marriage or a civil union? That is the issue with that video you posted. The guy on the stage keeps throwing out examples of a definition.

I don't know if you are married, but if you are, why did you get married? Was it love? Was it that you wanted to be with that one person for the rest of your life? Or.. was it because you wanted the tax break?

Why should anyone give a fuck what two gay guys or two lesbians (which is HOT cause porn taught me so) want to get married?

Please answer my question as to how does two homosexual people who want to be "married" by whatever definition, lets just say two people together for life, impacts your own life?

Reasons not accepted: Because it makes for a stupid thread on a forum.

GO!

Oh, forgot, payban me again if you get frustrated, or cause of the LOLs.

Ha, this is not what I meant by this statement. I don't agree with gay marriage one bit, but I'm all for gay civil unions, or make up something altogether different, I don't really care. Marriage has been defined for thousands of years, no need to make sweeping changes for the whims of 1% of our population.

I was actually poking fun at the way the world is going to shit by the minute, monthly riots and looting in the US over known criminals, beheadings, possible nuclear threats, and Barry keeps saying GW is our biggest threat. Perhaps the biggest non-issue of all.

I knew what you were trying to say, and whether we agree or not on the topic, we both know that there are much bigger things the govt should be focusing on.

Humans will not go extinct due to gay marriage. No one is forcing everyone to all of the sudden become gay. its just not a problem that modern society will see.
Like peter said, its not something you can stop, and you can fight it all you want, but it doesnt matter. It will get passed, and that will be the end of it.

I believe in science, just not manipulated for an agenda science, there is a big difference. You might wake up and see that one day.

You misunderstood my comments. Of course the human race will not go extinct due to gay marriage. But through natural selection the LGBT community should, with all things being equal, because two men or two women can't reproduce together on their own.

Don't be so sure about it becoming law just yet. The SCOTUS can't right law, they can only undo a law they find unconstitutional. And saying that marriage is between a man and a woman is not unconstitutional.

Pot, kettle, black. You assume I'm a lefty like Tom, but your assumption is dead wrong.

My personal attacks don't come from me being a lefty or righty. They come from me being an all-around 100% American asshole.

Yes.

Not from what I see in your post.

I agree.

All are unnatural, but there are still plenty of people who enjoy/crave/want/seek it.

Also what is being broken here, the sanctity of marriage itself?

Because if that's true, then should divorce be illegal? Should strip clubs be illegal since that's a form of prostitution? Capital punishment? Where do you narrow down anything really, it all comes down to a collective society of whats acceptable and whats not. Obviously the people are speaking out because as a whole they feel gay marriage is now acceptable. Sure some wont like it, but you cant make everyone agree on everything.

And as a collective society, I would bet you the silent majority out number the LGBT community many times over. All we see and hear are the 1% screaming for wants,....

Um, marriage is way worse for us tax wise than being single. I'm guessing we pay at least 1-2k more a year in taxes by being married. Thus, his original question is bogus.

But in all seriousness, I really don't care if gay people want to get married. I was brought up to believe that it's wrong, but as I see it, it doesn't affect my life one bit. And if it makes them happy, what's wrong with that?

PS - I told Emily how much extra we're paying in taxes by being married, suggested a civil union instead, she didn't seem overly excited. Said it's worth the extra taxes I guess..... who knew. LOL

[Kracka]

LOL @ bringing up a civil union with your wife!!!

[A//// Guy]

Hahaha yea Im with Pete and Andrew. Has no affect on me and whatever views you have against it are purely based on probably your view of marriage via the Bible. But the bible has a lot of rules which Im sure you dont follow.

The US sure has come a long way on a lot of issues.

It's not my DEFINITION, I don't get to re-write them like the LGBT community does. Nice attempt though.
So where does it end? If we have to re-write the definition of marriage to suit same sex couples, what about somebody who wants to marry a dog, or a horse, or their pet hamster? Of course the answer is, "Don't be rediculous, that's not natural", right? Well same sex marriage is not natural either. Let's call it what it is, a mental illness that gets a pass because it serves a bigger agenda. And at some point we have to look at the bigger picture and say enough is enough. In nature, without human intervention, the LGBT would have become extinct because same sex couples can't reproduce. Today, we just let them adopt,......

I'm curious to know what you would do if you had a child that grew up and told you they were gay/lesbian/transgender. Send them to anti-gay camp? Would you never speak to them again? Let me know.

Other than that, I'm done.

Oh, at the next funeral of a gay person you protest at wearing your god hates fags t-shirt, make sure to bring sunscreen cause of global warming and shit.
