@Oldfrt
For once I agree with you. It's always been part of my ultimatum:
Recognize all relationships or don't |

"So why not argue that government should not require marriage licenses at all?"
That would be an acceptable outcome: either everyone has government recognition of their relationships, or nobody does.
The complaint comes out of the disparity: some are given recognition, whilst others aren't.
"Let everyone have civil unions (for the legal stuff) and just make it nothing but private contracts?"
That is an outcome I would be happy to see. |

sterile man and or sterile woman...no baby. so according to jravity911 any heterosexual couples should first be tested for fertility before being granted the human right of marriage. after all, marriage is only for making babies. |

look i am not against a marriage of any two people...but it is defined as being between a man and a woman to make a family... man and man..no baby...woman and woman no baby...for a gay couple to have a child someone else has to come into play..thats why straight people dont get it. Marriage = family... people have closed eyes and will not open them for anyone. |

@Gerry1of1: How does any relationship I have, no matter what it's called, affect you? How does my filing a joint tax return shake your beliefs to the core?
So why not argue that government should not require marriage licenses at all? If the purpose of marriage is to let two people in love live together, why is the government involved at all? Let everyone have civil unions (for the legal stuff) and just make it nothing but private contracts? |

"You're stronger than that."
Actually, no, they're really not. Their desire to meddle in the lives of other people comes from a deep-rooted inability to control their own lives. That's why they give up control to a higher power, and feel that everyone else should do the same.
That anyone else should have self-determination and self-control scares and intimidates them, to the point where they believe that those who profess to have self-determination are deluding themselves (as they think their own incapability must be universal, and not a weakness that they alone have), and perversely feel they are helping others by robbing them of that delusion.
It'd be pathetic, if these people didn't hold so much sway over how the world runs. Because they do, it's tragic. For all of us. |

I've never understood black homophobes in America. Do they have such a short memory of their own oppression, or do they just want to get a turn at being the oppressor? |

He was elected, and is his opinion. Too bad if you dont like it. If you want to change things, then get off your couch potato pringles eating ass and get out and vote for someone that believes what you do. He is a democrat. so this is a warning to lazy democrats who just pull a lever for someone with the D in their title. Find out what the person believes before you vote them in. Who knows, you may have just rejected a republican that is pro gay marriage because you are a freaking SHEEP. |

I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.
I see skies of blue and clouds of white
The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.
The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people going by
I see friends shaking hands saying how do you do
They're really saying I love you.
I hear babies crying, I watch them grow
They'll learn much more than I'll never know
And I think to myself what a wonderful world
Yes I think to myself what a wonderful world.

@Gerry:
Lol, I do agree with what you said completely. I am all for gay marriage and am happy it is finally becoming a reality. IrishJesus is my name on here because my friends said I looked like jesus (I did before I got my hair cut a few months ago) so it became a nickname.
Also, I'm Irish if that wasn't obvious. And ironically enough, I'm agnostic.
But you are right. Everything is my fault and always will be. :) |

Just insert any name you like :)
Looking at YOUR name it's probably all your fault anyway |

Well said Gerry.
On a side note, how does someone that unintelligible get voted into the state senate? Seriously? I'm having a hard time determining whether or not he even DID oppose same-sex marriage... No wonder politicking takes so long. Jeez. |

Of course he's against gay marriage, he's black! Really? Have we really not figured that correlation out? |

Not suprising since over 70% of African- Americans voted against gay marriage in California. Yet the Mormons got all the blame. Heck AA's don't even like the Mormons. |
