They, as Dinsdale has accurately pointed out, would be seeking to get over.

Adults can marry for whatever reason they see fit.
Make your vows, pay your fee, off you go.
Fags need not apply.
Marriage = man & woman.
Discrimination .... ?
No, common sense.
As I said, you either get that or you don't.
I have no evidence to back up my claim because marriage is man & woman in our country.
My claim is based on common sense.

What some fag does in the bedroom is their biz. Marriage, however, is asking for federal benefits. The idea behind these benefits is the advancement of a stable family situation. While this is certainly no guarantee in a heterosexual relationship, it's a possibility. A homosexual relationship can not reproduce, ever. It is not naturally intended that they do so. You are asking the federal government to basically fork over dollars for a sexual proclivity. Homosexuals are not a race. It's like declaring special rights to S&M practitioners. Shack up, cool. As others have said, however, tax dollars should not go to fund a non-productive sexual orientation. The modern court being the legislators that they are, however, it will likely come to pass eventually.

What about older hetero couples who are past child bearing age? They are non productive. You going to single them out too?

Nice outline, Buc.
RF, I challenge you to find any post I've ever put up in which I spoke on behalf of lesbianism.
SG's post is a good one.
This is an issue where folks have staked out their positions and really won't easily be budged from them.
If fags want to fag around, fine.
If they want to redefine marriage, not fine.
Seriously, where do they get their balls big enough to think they can do that .... ?
Fuck them.
The next step following, of course, is fag adoption of children.
Very very uncool.
The standard set for marriage is man & woman, and that is an appropriate and GOOD standard for society.
The people believe it to be .... overwhelmingly.
Much is made of the divorce rate.
50% is horrible -- not NOT good.
If you think that number will do anything but go up up up UP if sodomites are allowed to marry then you're a very dim bulb.
There is NO compelling reason at all to radically redefine marriage .... NONE.

I don't think they should be allowed in, unless their male counterparts are also allowed in womens sports locker rooms .
You say "gays can do whatever they want, they can be couples, but they can't be married. Why? because you say? because the bible or the dictionary says?
If the government uses marriage as a means of defining how people - individuals and couples - pay taxes and reap benefits, and you are taking a small segment of the population (gay couples) which you allow to exist under your rules, and you're saying they aren't allowed the same benefits hetero couples have just because they are gay, well isn't that discrimination? Set aside your disgust at the gay activities they partake in (because there are ass fuckers in the hetero world, too), and take a look at the broader picture. They are working, paying taxes, and yet they are denied the benefits other couples get.
IMo You either have to redefine the way the government uses the institution of marriage as a benchmark for distribution of benefits to citizens or you have to allow all "couples", regardless of their sexual proclivities to be able to have access to those benefits.
If you form a new religion - and called yourself "The Tartists" - and the government decided that your religious practices did not meet the standards under which marriage was defined and they denied you access to beneifts you would have a right to if you belonged to an accepted religion, would you accept that as fair?
In the past history of this country at various times, blacks, women, and indians had no rights or limited rights.
Even today in india the lowest caste of people - the untouchables - are treated worse than the dogs that people born into the upper caste keep as pets. Hardline muslims treat women as inferior, yet without them the race would cease to exist.
At what point will we as humans be able to grow past stubborness and ignorance into acceptance of others who live differently when the activities of those who are different have no negative affect on our own personal lives?
Women don't belong in male lockerrooms.
That's always been my take.
The family structure is important to our country.
That family structure begins with man and wife.
It's just the way it is, and it just happens to be the way it's always been in every place in every time.
Get over it.
Do you believe a homosexual couple should be allowed to adopt children ... ?

Actually I said people do get benefits from the government when married. This is true. Motivations for marriage are irrelevant. If two gays wish to get 'married', what is at question for me and many are these benefits which are paid for by taxpayers. As useless as many marriages turn out to be, the heterosexual union can produce a productive family situation. With a homosexual union, this is biologically impossible in any situation. Again, as much as gays are treated like a race or nationality they are not. It's a sexual orientation no more deserving of re-visiting what constitutes 'marriage' and the benefits according than Radiofan fucking a pet schnauzer.Mister Bushice wrote:

And this isn't just about benefits received from the government. Married couples receive many benefits from the private sector as well (previously mentioned access to loved ones in hospital, rental car rates, car insurance rates, access to medical insurance, ect.).
And if you want to argue that gays & lesbians shouldn't be given these benefits based on their sexual preference/choice, where does it say that your choice is more deserving of these benefits (especially now that your "it's for the children" argument has been blown to bits)?

True. Of course, the child was still not a natural result of their union. In a hetero situation, these methods are taken to overcome uncommon circumstances. In a homosexual situation, they are required. Again, it's a sexual orientation at debate here. You could marry two 10 year olds and they could theoretically adopt. I don't support re-writing the book on that one anymore than I do someone who has wrapped their life around a sexual preference. I don't think there is necessarily a moral basis for arguing on either side of the plate here...but there is a logical one. A homosexual union will never have the stability of a natural, heterosexual one. You can spin all the statistics and celebrity couples you like, the differences in men and women are purposeful and no amount of put on feminine and masculine homosexual enthusiasm can imitate that. It's a question of money and legality. Put to a vote, I think with very few exceptions across the nation the idea of homosexual marriage has a very long, long way to go in gaining public acceptance. However, as with so many things, the court will take it upon themselves to "interpret" new legislation and eventually it will come to pass. The sun will still rise the next day and I as many will shrug and get on with life, but my opinion won't change. It will be another (of many) waste of my tax dollars.Jsc810 wrote:Not quite.

It's GOOD because the person advocating maintaining the status quo isn't the one being discriminated against. Many people felt that slavery was good for themselves & their society. And a vote in their southern part of the country would have resulted in slavery being upheld. Does that make slavery right? By your logic regarding homosexual marriages you're condoning slavery for the same reasons.poptart wrote:Society has set the standard for slavery, and it has been set because it is a GOOD standard.

Please explain how yours or anyone else's hetero marriage would be damaged by allowing gay & lesbian couples the same priviliges (as required by the 14th Amendment)? Please explain how this country would be hurt by allowing equality to be applied to marriages. And just for giggles, please explain how the ability to procreate in this country is so important after passing the 300 million population mark.You're trying to raise individual wishes above the greater good of the people as a whole, and it demonstrates a profound selfishness on your part.

There's no way two unemployable heterosexual crackheads are going to maintain a more "stable" union than two college educated, professional homos. Not a chance in hell.

Any man who beats a small child and throws said child from a SUV, beats his wife black and blue, gets arrested and charged with 4 Class D felonies, and 4 Class A misdemeanors--isn't someone you should wrap up in the flag and sing the National Anthem for.
Yes, he's a veteran...but he's no man or father.
Now that some of you know the above--please feel free to praise my ex even further. It's all a matter of public record and so is the fact that I have sole custody of my children and he has NO visitation.
But back to the subject, I agree with everything Buc posted on the subject before Radio Fan tried to take it personal.

Link what? The fact that you have a socially and biologically aberrant sexually based union trying to raise a stable child? That said child will not have a natural set of masculine or feminine figures to grow with? Commie? What is commie is asking taxpayers to fund someone's sexual fetish. You continue to single out the failed hetero examples, but as a whole do you honestly believe a homosexual union is a stable platform to raise children? Because that's what the end goal of a marriage is. Family. Raising future and productive citizens for a civilized society. A homosexual union is incapable of producing a natural family. As for the gays who don't intend on having kids, I could give a fuck. I don't feel like I should pay tax money to fund their sexual orientation.

Money, not vows assclown...and dodge what? Gays pay taxes. So do most people. The question here is why give tax breaks to something that can't produce a natural, socially beneficial family situation? I don't see the equality issue here. It's the nature of the union that's being challenged, not someone's right to shack up in whatever way they see fit.
