But WHY? Cultural standards have been reformed over and over again since the dawn of civilization. Don't tell me it's perfect NOW. Gay rights are absolutely comparable to the advocation of rights by all kinds of groups throughout history. I don't suppose you have a problem with interracial marriage? Because a lot of people did about half a century ago, I can tell you that.
 
i just have one word for you all...AMENDMENTS! they were created for a reason

Woooooooooooow.

I think that gettin' married is mainly for a Male and a Female. I mean... Without having to be hypocrite, I have to respect you guys and all that but sinserly, I strongly think that gettin' married is a bit too far. And your only 15 years old, so you never know if your going to have a marriage. ^^

Yeah. That's my opinion though. Marriage = Male + Female for me. Maybe not for you and some other people but that's what a marriage is suppose to be.
 
I do have to say that this is more of a conflict between straight people that are for it and against it.

I'd really love to see what the polls would look like if gays didn't have any say in it. Would it look the same? Or be different? Who knows.

for me marriage is just a bond between any two people who love eachother
 
And to me, marriage is a loving realtionship between a man and a woman.

Probably somewhat near the same.

We are a minority after all. And besides, I think most straight people are rational enough to want equal rights for everyone.

Forgive me for I'm still trying to grasp the deal.

If gays got married, how would that have any effect on you, or your marriage at all?
 
I think the main problem is the religious aspect. More than a few religions started out saying that being gay is a sin. And this idea has passed down with the generations for years. Many people grew up thinking that homosexuality was wrong as a result.

To make a reasonable comparison, African Americans were not seen as equals according to the law for quite some time. And once they passed that barrier, many of those older white people maintained their beliefs. Today, I'd think most of you would say that we're all equal regardless of race, eh? Well, that's because we've had 50+ years of our elders telling us so.

So, basically, in the year 2050, I'd bet that this won't even be a problem, and kids will be learning about how hard a time homosexuals had to get the right to marry. History does tend to repeat itself, after all.
 
Do people who don't believe in gay marriage really have the right to deny happiness to another person just because they are different? No.

Alakazam, that was well said.

You are completly right and the only reason that happens is because the world is to ignorant to look back and say "Oh lets not do that again".

For me, marriage is just a bond between two opposite sexes who eventually grow old and fat together.

Pretty much in my opinion of this thread, I'm not really against gays, I'm against gay marriage. I just can't seem to image the thought of "Bob, do you take the hand of your lovely wedded groom, Henry, to be your husband?"

So, lets put it this way:

"Bob" and "Belle" completely HATE eachother.
When they were kids, they hit eachother.
When they were teens, they made eachother's lives misrable.
When they were adults, they threated eachother with knives.

"Dave" and "Steve" or "Suzy" and "Karen" (Witchever you perfer)
Completly LOVE eachother.
They wouldn't let anything happen to eachother,
and don't care what anybody says about them, because all they need is eachother.

So...
"Bob" and "Belle" can get married easily because "Bob" is a man, and "Belle" is a woman,
But "Dave" and "Steve" or "Suzy" and "Karen" can't get married because they are the same sex.

...

Wow.

lol ur such a badass teen

Also, xXscytherXx, stop avoiding the arguments that completely punch holes in your arguments. How do gays being able to marry infringe on your right to marry? How are you affected at all? If it's a matter of defying your religion then can't you just let them be godless heathen's and move on? Honestly, you aren't going to change their sexual orientation.
