jclalor 12 #27 November 6, 2008 The last group of people who should be preaching the morality of marriage is the Mormons and Catholics. Once again we see how religion poisons everything. Funny how 90% of African Americans Voted For Obama, but less than a third voted for 8. And for all the people that say being gay is a choice, could you please tell us when you made the decision to be straight? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
diablopilot 2 #28 November 6, 2008 QuoteQuoteQuoteTrue colors showin on through . . . Red, White and Blue . . . pal . . . with liberty and justice for ALL. Except those that don't share your beliefs... then it's malign and attack. Those are the values of a true patriot, quade and you're displaying them in exemplary style. You mean like several religious organizations did through their support of Prop 8? Isn't a major tenant of you "faith" the tolerance and forgiveness of others, even those who do not subscribe to you "faith"? Prop 8 is persecution of you "faith's" "sinners" plain and simple. The tenants of your "faith" should cause you to reach out and embrace those that the church has seen fit to attack through Prop 8. That's why I can't have "faith". I refuse to be a hypocrite. It's nearly the year 2010, and America the "Melting Pot" needs to put bigotry away and grow the fuck up.---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are.

Conundrum 1 #35 November 6, 2008 What about people who go to the courthouse and get a civil marriage, not a religious one? Maybe we should ban that too. Why not? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
klingeme 1 #36 November 6, 2008 QuoteEveryone I have talked to that says they voted yes for banning gay marriage has done it for religious reasons. "marriage is for men and women only" I'm wondering how they'd vote if there were a prop to ban divorce (i.e. forcing them to abide by "til death do us part" in their vows)? I doubt it would pass... then again, it's not uncommon for religious people to bend the rules to their convenience. Or a constituional amendment against talking back to your parents or using the Lord's name in vain. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

siddacious 0 #39 November 6, 2008 QuoteAnd now I apologize to everyone else. let's lift the ban on gay marriage. and on polygamy. and on marriage to children. and to animals. and inanimate objects. YEA! Here we go again, the seemingly inevitable "slippery slope" argument. Problem is that you're trying to draw attention away from the core topic of what marriage means by replacing homosexual marriage with homosexual sex, and then comparing it to other forms of sex that people generally find objectionable. The topic is homosexual/same sex marriage, not sex. Try and keep a cogent argument together. I really don't like it when people slip out of admitting fault or when they're wrong. If I'm going to try and honor the valid points of your arguments, I would only hope for the same from you.A dolor netus non dui aliquet, sagittis felis sodales, dolor sociis mauris, vel eu libero cras.
