Gay Marriage

[gena33612]

That would be fine but the guy public didn't want everyone to be accpeting of them and they want to teach tolerance to our childern and I DON'T THINK SOOOOO!  I will never teach my child that a guy relationship is right in any circumtance and my sister is a lesbian.

Yeah, let's not have TOLERANT CHILDREN in the world!  Otherwise, they might grow up realizing what a narrow-minded parent they have!

I feel for your sister.

I foreal can't stand a gay DUDE. I feel if i hang around that gay dude is going to try to kiss me. Thats Gross!@!!

I am a woman.  You are a man.  Therefore, I am not safe around you, because as a heterosexual man, you will DEFINITELY be attracted to me and try to kiss me.

See how stupid that sounds when you write it out?

I'm not sure but, God dosen't want people to be gay.  I actually can't stand gay people.

They are still God Kids and matter if they are over 85 and there gay STILL GOD KIDS. I have a gay friend and cuz. There good to hang around, I care for them, but im not gay.

God made them and they are his kids.  But he doesn't want them.  And you can't stand gay people.  And you care for them.

Have you always been this confused?

It is 2009 people..everyone is different.I think it should be the persons choice, if they wanna be with the same sex, why deny them or make them feel like they are different.

My uncle recently came out to my family, he got 4 kids, had a wife, but got divorced and also served in the military. very big shocker to the family, but we love him the same......

the bible says no, and the bible is important, but the bible also says to love thy neighbor.

That is what is wrong with this world, everyone has become tolerant of everything and they do not question weather things are wrong or right.  My child does not have a narrowed-minded mother, he has one that think for herself THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!!! .

you should be able to do what you want

As long as the Bible has a stranglehold on people's minds, there will never be an understanding reached about anything in this country.  

"God says no, so I say no."  Way to think for yourselves.  Way to cast a stone on a gigantic portion of the HUMAN RACE because your book tells you to.  Way to maintain the Golden Rule.  Way to be a narrow-minded, judgemental, hateful jerk.

People are...
...black & white & brown & yellow & red.
...tall & short & fat & skinny.
...rich & poor & democrats & republicans.
...gay & straight & bisexual.

We are also scared, confused, hopeful, trying to keep a job, hoping to buy a house, wishing for a new car, worried about that 15 extra pounds, wondering where we left our glasses when we took them off.  And on and on and on...

What makes someone different?  Why does that make them bad, or less than you?  Where do you draw the line?  How far is "too much"?

We are HUMANS.  All of us.  And all of us are the same.  Thus, we all are entitiled to EVERYTHING that the rest of of the world is.

Who do you think gave you the brain to think with.  The color of your skin and your body type cannot be chosen.  But they have a choice when it comes to sexuality.  You are born a specific gender and we were made man and woman.  Non man and man or woman and woman.

That's interesting.  May I ask at what age you CHOSE to be attracted to males (I'm pretty sure you're a female)?

I can personally say I've never met a single person who made a point decision in their life about who they were going to be attracted to...

Again, whether it's genetic or not doesn't really matter.  A person's sexuality and hormone production are not choices in the same way that you choose what type of pizza you'd like to have tonight.  It's obviously a much deeper process than that and you won't find a legitimate "expert" who would agree to sexuality being some random choice a person makes when they hit a certain age.  I find it depressing people still think sexual attraction is something you wake up one day and decide upon.

I put yes.  But to put it out there first, I am not gay- at all.  I feel that we can't ignore what exist.  And being gay is real.  My best friend is gay. And he is really really gay. No way in heck is a law going to scare him straight. Having said that, we need to think about all the gay people out there who are starting families.  The kids need health insurance, the parents need life insurance.  So we need to except the marriage so they get the most needed benefits that straight people have.

how can gay people have kids....think about it
u probably mean adopting kids right? and btw, i put no. i can't explain it. some gay ppl are alrite, but others are just...wow...thats all im going to say

Being gay doesn't mean your reproductive organs don't work.  Gay people throughout history have reproduced.  Obviously you're referring to an actual gay couple reproducing with each other...but clearly in today's age that isn't necessary to have kids.  There are more ways to have kids besides "traditional" reproduction and/or adoption.

As for the rest of the post, I don't understand what it has to do with your opinion of gay marriage.  Some gay people are quote, "wow," so they shouldn't be able to get married?  I don't follow the thought process.  A number heterosexuals are "wow," but surely you don't support banning heterosexual marriages...

Doesn't make sense.

just my personal opinion - i don't like gay people. i personally hate when there are known gay people in the locker room because then i feel REALLY uncomfortable because of a certain past experience. but thats just me, someone else may think its "hot" that another person of the same sex is checking them out in the locker room, but rest assured, that's not me   let me explain y i dont like them - one was staring at me when i had my f***ing pants off...that's all i need to say, and it may not be the greatest reason, but i don't care. btw, r YOU gay? also let me restate something i said before - some gay people are all right. i dont mind some of them. but the others....

That's because you're what appears to be a homophobic teenager who's neurons aren't being utilized yet...

[bzapps]

im straight but i do believe that they are allowed to be happy

[sam1slim1]

I think that if someone wants to get married they should have that right, rather they or straight or gay. Who are we to judge? That's what the problem is everyone thinks that it should be their way, but it doesn't work like that. The only opinions that matters is those involved in the decision and God. If you are a believer in God, I am, then you should not put yourself in a postion to judge others. It is not our place to judge.
I guess I just don't understand why people are opposed. If a gay couple is getting married it doesn't affect anyone but them. If we mind our own business, it wouldn't be a problem.

Sorry, I am a rambler.

i support them

exlain the neurons thing please, & i sure as hell am not homophobic thank you very much. Seriously, who's scared of homo's? and in the words of DMX for all my hip-hop listening people: "How you gon' explain f***ing a man?" <- now that's a good question.

LOl, sorry liljp617, if you have to define nuerons, I think you are wasting your time. I think you have responded with logical, well thought out arguments. But when you get back "I'm not afraid of homos" and quotes from a rapper, you are wasting your breath ( or fingers) . It's like arguing with a drunk...pointless.

[RKylloe]

I believe if they love each other then they have the right.

[lightstar240]

I don't know any gays, I've really never even come across any, anywhere. I don't really like the IDEA of homosexuality, but I'm not going to say outright "Gays are sick and disgusting and blah blah blah....", simply because I have no idea if that is true. It's not really fair to build your own opinion off of the opinions of others. And that is why I cant actually talk about the people themselves. I don't belong in this argument, really. So, I'll just say I don't like the idea of being gay, and not make an opinion about people I do not know. And now I need to go find something I can relate to...

[Shutmeup3030150]

I completely support it, more than anything else in the entire world. Its my #1 cause in which I support.
