Um, again with the whole seperate but equal, you can't do that. Discrimination is illegal, sorry for you.
Anyways, E has brought real proof, not religon or opinion, but proof. Let's see some evidence, real evidence against gay marrige. And the defining of marrige between a man and a woman, why? Again it comes to the gays are evil, persecute them!
Ok, been asked before, why is it deviant behavoir? Because you don't like it? Because a all powerful invisable fairy tale character(god) said it was? Well, why is it deviant, without opinion or bs.

Uhmm, JameslessThan, you really do a bang up job of expousing the homosexual activity agenda here!!
Since when did deviant sex become entitled to special rights? i.e., marriage and the financial benefits this institution between a MAN AND A WOMAN entail??
How does sex between a man and a man = children? Do you want to discontinue the race? Or, do you and your kind wish to pervert the race with disease, anarchy and degeneration? I think the latter.
admit your own hate of all that is NORMAL and wholesome- men and women having babies together.
I personally know of a gay (females) couple who are raising a young man of around age 13. He has issues with his toilet. He gets teased at school about sitting down when he pees.....a silly thing to you maybe, yet what do two women teach a boy to help him grow into a MAN?
Do two men teach a boy to suck penis by example???
You are one sick puppy to promote this lifestyle.

So KJ, in the 60's interacial marriges were deviant. Before women could vote a woman requesting the right to vote was being deviant. A black man wanting to eat and drink at the same place as a white man was being deviant. A woman wanting to paid the same as a man was being deviant. Sorry, just cause it deviant now, won't mean it is deviant in the future.
What's the point here. Did you see anywhere in my post that I said deviant was bad all the time? No. You asked why it was deviant and I told you. You must be confussing me with bigots who hate gays and want them out of the US. I am not one of those.
Second, do we really need to reproduce? Aren't we already over the limit on kids? Aren't we currently sending thousands of kids around the foster care system cause people had kids they didn't want?
The statistics are skewed. A lot of the foster care kids are not from parents that did not want them, but rather kids of convicts, screwed up homes on all fronts etc.
Well, reproducing isn't all that important. And what about worms? They don't need a penis or a vagina to reproduce, so are they going against nature?
Yes, science is sometimes against nature. I have never used the excuse that it is against nature for being against gay marriage.

the homosexual population isn't reproducing now, i'm talking about strictly homosexuals, not bi-sexuals, and we're doing just fine keeping the population up. allowing homosexuals to get married isn't going to cause a mass exodus of hetro's to the homo lifestyle causing a massive drop in the population. point being, if you allowed gay marriage not much would change...gay people will keep on being gay, they will still be a minority and life will go on.

Jethro,
I just wanted to apologize for some of the things I have said about you. After reading your posts, I have to come to the conclusion that you have a well thought out arguement in this matter. I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree. Take care.....peace.
p.s. Jethro Tull (or is it Toll?) rocks!!!!

I actually don't know where I stand on this isue....and I'm gay. We only want the same rights as everyone else...if that is a civil union...call it what you will. But, at least let us have that. People say they would be fine with civil unions...so let us have those at least. By the way in most if not all but a few states, we still can not go to the justice of the peace and have a union declared which would give us the same rights.
I also believe that why do we really need to call it marriage. Marriage is a religious sacrement. If the religion doesn't want me in it then fine by me.....I wouldn't want to be a part of that said religion anyway. I do like the idea of just calling civil unions for homo and hetero unions if not done by a perticular religion. That would make it equal and not seperate. But if you want to be married, make it a religious declaration that has nothing to do with the laws. I bet alot of gay people wouldn't be wanting to be "married" instead of just being recognized by the state. Some would want to be married religiously though and that would be fine if the church allows it. Ok..maybe I'm beating the dead horse but these are just some of my thoughts. Thanks for listening.

So, they are adopting, not reproducing. Besides, you can't "turn" gay, either you are or you aren't. You just don't walk down the street and go "Wow, that chick has a great ass." Then all of a sudden a gay injects the gay virus into you and you turn to the woman. "Girl, can I do your hair? I am sooo good at hair."(All said with a San Fransico accent/gay lisp)
Sorry, that only happens in movies, christian logic, and bigot logic. I have gay freinds, I have lesbian freinds, I have bi freinds and none of them are trying to make me gay or bi. You see, they don't go out thinking"How many people can I make gay today." They are just like you and me except they don't like the opposite sex as sexual partners.
