The government is not slapping the face of religion. The government if it be for same sex marriage is slapping the face of God who has declared men with men and women with women is AN ABOMINATION!
1 Timothy 2
12 I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume authority over a man;[a] she must be quiet.
Jehovah, God loves all men and women but He is also Judge of all.
Since mankind laughs at God, God will also laugh at your calamity when it comes, those who slap His face will not go unpunished.
Jesus Christ died for the sins of the world.

Oh my God, the sanctity of marriage. Should we talk about the high divorce rate of HETEROSEXUAL marriages?

Well then obviously people over the age of 55 shouldn't be allowed to get married either since they won't be procreating.

*sigh* this old fallacy. Those "examples" are different in the sense that they all harm someone. Gays are consenting adults whose actions have absolutely no bearing on your rights.
Why do people still insist on using that crappy argument? Is it cognitive dissonance, or do they lack the intelligence to see what is wrong with it?
1. i made no argument.
2. i never said gays could not get married.
3. everything i said was in relation to the stupid idea of "rights."
clearly you are the one lacking intelligence. typical American filth.

When the pedophiles demand the right to marry 11 year olds what then? This is a slippery slope. This is just another issue that America does not need. It will not end when they get the right to marry. It is part of the destruction of the church. It is the further eroding of morals in society.

So you are comparing two homosexuals who wish to marry (which there is nothing "illegal" about it) to a pedophile who wants to marry a child (which is completely illegal)?
Talk about making a huge leap
So they are trying to change the law to only allow homosexuals the right to marry?

Nooo... And, though I may be wrong, you seem smart enough to know that's not what I meant.
In the United States, Gays have always had the SAME rights everyone else has had. Those rights, however, don't always suit the sexual preference of homosexuals.
See ya,

Because it destroys the sanctity of marriage for those who believe in it. All for 4% of the population. It will also creates yet another great divide in America just like Roe vs Wade did. We don't need more division. The people have voted on it and said no. Go after Civil Unions. Why destroy the sanctity of marriage when you can get the same result with civil unions? Why must "marriage" enter into the equation when they obviously don't believe in God/Bible anyway? This is just more destruction heaped onto society for no reason.
nice strawman.

Okay then, the state should be able to tell you who you can marry, and it has to be the person you are the LEAST attracted to. You okay with that? Because it's only then that you have the same rights as gays.
