4 Reasons Gay Marriage Should Be Legal in the USA!

That aside...
Aren't there 2 issues here?
1. Gay couples bound in wedlock should have the same rights as married heteros. Absolutely. While I do have some reservations about a same-sex couple raising a child without the role-model presence of Both Genders in that child's life, I certainly would not stand in the way of a happy, loving pair wanting to raise a family.
2. What do we call this binding wedlock? "Marriage?"
Here's the thing: "Marriage" is the term many want to reserve solely for the union between a man and a woman. Why a man and a woman? Because (and this is the time-honored, original intent of the pair bond) this means children. Marriage did not evolve just so two people could live together. The intent was for 2 people to get together to have children.

So my question is this: if a man and a woman get together but consciously, deliberately, intentfully decide Not to have children, should That union be called a "marriage?"

I'm sorry, someone had to reference that south park episode.

1. According to the US Constitution, all Men are created equal, including gays. They should have the same rights are non-gays.

it also says everyone has a right to their own religion yet when do you ever hear of someone taking oath under the Koran or Torah?

That's a good point. But does that mean the Bible IS ACTUALLY superior to the Quran or Torah, just because it is treated as such ?

I don't think so. So that doesn't mean that straight men deserve more rights than gay men.

Everyone deserves the same rights. Period.

Tiny dicks, aside!

I have said:

Equal rights to those who want them!

Screw the rest. Those who stand opposed, let them die

Let people do what they want....except the pedophiles

Gay marraige doesn't have to be legalized, really, because it already is.

To elaborate, if you look at the 14th amendment, it states [paraphrase] "all citizens of the United States are equal under law" This proves that gay marriage not only should be legalized, but it is in fact guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution. Is not marriage an institution recognized by law? Does not a married couple have to have legal marriage liscence?

Not quite....not quite...because, well, Gay people are exactly equal to straight people in that aspect.

I'm not sure I get your point...

Well, the reall isn't equality...it's freedom, everyone should (in case marriage by the government exists) be allowed to marry any other individual (iin case they agree) they ****ing want...that'S the point.

We already have equality...gays have the exact same rights as straights.

2. Gay marriage happens everyday in America. What we are really debating is making gay marriage licenses legal. As you read this, two men are getting "married" in a church somewhere in America, and you people in the Red States can't stop it. 😆

Gays do NOT have the right to marry who they are sexually orientated towards.

Straights have that right. Gays don't.

Discrimination via sexual orientation.

Incorrect. However, I'm not going to even touch this thread with a shred of logic. [Unlike all those other threads in which I use a huge amount of logic...damn debbiejo.]

Please tell me how that's incorrect. I want to know what you were going to say.

Gays are allowed to marry who he or she is sexually oriented towards? As in a gay man can marry a man? Or a gay woman can marry another woman?

Gay Marriage? Ehh, sure, as long as Gay guys don't propose to me

But I don't think they should be allowed to raise kids together, they need a Mother/Father

So lets ban single parenting, as every child needs a mother and a father. 🙄
