 | They're always so snazzy and have comebacks; 1. Being gay is not natural. Real Americans always reject unnatural things like eyeglasses, polyester, birth control and air conditioning. 2. Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay, in the same way that hanging around tall people will make you tall. 3. Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy behavior. People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has legal standing and can sign a marriage contract. 4. Marriage has been around a long time and hasn't changed at all: women are property, matches are arranged in childhood, blacks can't marry whites, Catholics can't marry Jews, divorce is illegal, and adultery is punishable by death 5. Straight marriage will be less meaningful if gay marriage were allowed; the sanctity of Britany Spears' 55-hour just-for-fun marriage would be destroyed. 6. Straight marriages are valid because they produce children. Gay couples, infertile couples, and old people shouldn't be allowed to marry because our orphanages aren't full yet, and the world needs more children. 7. Obviously gay parents will raise gay children, since straight parents only raise straight children. 8. Gay marriage is not supported by religion. In a theocracy like ours, the values of one religion are imposed on the entire country. That's why we have only one religion in America. 9. If we look to the word of God, His punishment for sexual immorality is equal to that of murder. Therefore, teaching kids to tolerate homosexuality is equal to teaching them to tolerate murder. 10. Children can never succeed without a male and a female role model at home. That's why we as a society expressly forbid single parents to raise children. 11. Gay marriage will change the foundation of society; we could never adapt to new social norms. Just like we haven't adapted to cars, the service-sector economy (insurance, government, tourism, banking, retail, education, and social services), suburban malls, or longer life spans. 12. Gay marriage should be decided by people not the courts, because the majority-elected legislatures, not courts, have historically protected the rights of the minorities. 13. Civil unions, providing most of the same benefits as marriage with a different name are better, because a �seperate but equal� institution is always constitutional. Seperate schools for African-Americans worked just as well as seperate marriages for gays and lesbians will. 14. There is no separation between religious marriage and legal marriage, because there is no separation of church and state. 15. Devout, faithful Anglicans should never accept same-sex marriage, because it is an affront to the traditional family values upheld by Henry VIII and his wife, Catherine of Aragon, and his wife, Anne Boleyn, and his wife, Jane Seymour, and his wife, Anne of Cleves, and his wife, Catherine Howard, and his wife, Catherine Parr. They all knew the meaning of marriage and none of them lost their heads over |

| [quote] OneLoser : Gays are only unnatural because most people have been brought up in a heterosexual society. So on and so forth. :O [/quote] No, by nature it IS unnatural. Life is generated in circles (or in segments of lines that connect to each other and circulate). This, of course, is my own personal belief. In any case, it IS unnatural because this breaks that rule - gays cannot reproduce. However, that does NOT mean I'm against gay marriage. Hell, it ain't your godforsaken marriage, so don't nose your way into their buisness. It ain't your case so don't argue it. Does it bother you? Good for you. You bother me. Get out of here. No marriage for you. |

[/quote] What I consider natural is how sexual interactions between two consenting individuals stimulate the peripheral nervous system and the central nervous system to induce pleasure. What I consider artificial is the bible, the church, and the sunday school teachings. |

| You're not born to be gay. You can be born to be tall because there's nothing you can really do to change it. This topic is hilarious. |
