Such behavior by LGBT's will merely add up to society's further disdain. Tolerance can only go so far - push it more and it will snap. Gays should smarten up and keep their frustrations to themselves and contribute positively to society rather than being obnoxious pests.

Sir ... i have no idea what kind of argument you just made. It has no discussion value what so ever. It was a rant. Please be a bit more productive and put some argumentative detail into the rant at least.

I should put it better, you should be legally obligated to inform your spouse of any disease that you have that can be passed on to your off spring before marriage. If the woman / man still wants to get married, then so be it. So in a way , i am in favor of selective reproduction.

Your post pretty well gives you away as the kind of 'Christian' a lot of people have come to expect. You continual condescending remarks towards ....Redneck....Nascar.... toothless etc. provides the audience here with a bit of direction you seem to take in defining people unlike yourself. Frankly, you need to stay in the blighted city you have created and leave us 'plumb dumb sure'nuf good 'ol boys alone so's we'uns cen get back ta doin what we'uns do best. And that is scoff and laugh at those who consider the 'South' a backwards gator ridden plantation life, Daisy Duke, Boss Hog environment. You all just keep thinking that, and keep it in your mind that you don't want to come anywhere near the south with it's toothless inbred, shine sippin hibleys. Please stay away and dont infect Paradise with your 'malcontent liberal city' attitudes and undesirable and immoral lifestyle practices. We here do close on Sunday, and Do go to church , and Do raise our own Children, and Do attend to others needs and charity. And Yea we are Black and White and Brown and Yellow and Red, and we care for each other. Life here is 'By and By' obviously something that exceedingly escapes your perceptions. But You might be too busy pigeonholeing everyone different than you to notice. LGBT people exist all over..... but it doesn't mean they are to be catered to, nor does it mean that they will be accepted wherever they go. We reserve the right to befriend people WE Choose to Befriend, not what a morally bankrupt society in some far off state dictates. I would never stray far from the South, and other than visiting or business, There's not much to entice me away from here. We have the freedom to pick and choose who we associate with, and that is America. So OP, I take issue with your attitude and remarks belittling others but ....... it's yours to have........

The Elitist/humanist/satinists- and they are really in control in high places--ARE ALL ABOUT HOMOSEXUALITY!
What THEY want, is for them to have EXCLUSIVE RIGHTS TO HOMOSEXUALITY--

Oh man, gay people just want to be treated as equals, the horror. Such an awful agenda....
People like the OP would have been saying the same thing about black people during the civil rights movement. HOW DARE THEY TRY TO FORCE DE-SEGREGATION ON US FOLKS!
Grow up.
You have no right to deny someone a secular marriage because you personally disagree with it. Religion has absolutely nothing to do with getting a marriage license.

I can't believe I've never looked at this issue in this manner. You are correct and technically, yes they have the same rights as all other humans.
P.S. - I like how you cover yourself with "to my knowledge" and "as far as I know." haha
Putting my personal beliefs aside, I can't see how gay marriage is an issue.
Two people getting married is really going to bring down the moral fabric of this country? Some say yes. And I say, how? Is it because of the acknowledgement of those relationships? Those same people will still be living together in a relationship, acting as a couple, having children, etc... regardless of the marriage aspect. It will still be on the television, in mainstream media, etc... regardless of the marriage aspect.
However, I can see that for the gay couple and any children they have, it benefits them. They can protect their assets, get health insurance, make health-related decisions, etc...
Let's be real here though, Chick-fil-a is a strong Christian-owned business and very open about it. I don't see how this is at all shocking and real news considering that information.
My big issue with them? WHY do they have to be closed on Sunday? It never fails that I always crave it on Sunday. Even Jesus healed on the Sabbath.

If you truly believe that two people, who will love, covet and honour each other all their lives, who will make each other happy and support each other through the good and the bad, cannot recognise that bond in the manner they would wish because of the chromosomes they were born with, then you are mentally deficient.

Um? Do you then support unions between a man and his sister, or between an adult and an underaged child? How far can we carry this thought?
