[bodhi]

btw,

wassup QD!?

QD: it does indeed effect me when a Christian is told to keep their beliefs and practices out of government while gays are able to force their agenda on the American people. They cry bigotry and injustice when none of the sort is taking place.

Again, I ask. How is this affecting your life? Will you lose your job or get a pay cut because of their actions. Is your job in jeopardy if gays are allowed to get married? Is your marriage (if you're married) or relationship (if you're not) in peril? How will your quality of life decrease if the gay community is allowed to get legally married. None of the above will affect me. That's why it's no big to me what they do one way or the other.

By the way, I don't see them "forcing their agenda" on anyone. I see them trying to get rights to get married. How is that forcing something on you?

I agree that being gay is a choice and not genetic though. You hear of women going gay after being burned or getting tired of men all the time.

Holy shit I guess all theories and studies can be put to rest now that this has been chimed in. Debate over.

THREAD LOCKED!

btw,

wassup QD!?

Oh, before the lock, what it is, Alex! How are you and yours? Later, QD.

It tarnishes the meaning of a tradition. I personally dont believe in burial rituals, but maybe you do. would it effect your life in any way if i purchased the local mortuary, dug up all of your deceased relatives and used them to fertilize my garden? would you lose your job if i did that? would your quality of life decrease if i did that?

To me, burial is a silly thing. I dont believe in it, i think its a waste of space, but i respect that you and/or other people believe in it and i show it respect. Gay people do not care about respecting the current institution of marriage or care about who they offend. So it's hard to care about offending them. So you cant get married? dont give a shit.

Unfortunately, the "gay rights" groups are not pursuing the proper methods to change the laws. I do not see state congressmen submitting propositions for voting on it. I see that the "gay rights" groups are attempting to circumvent the state laws by looking for a federal mandate to override state laws. That is "forcing the issue".

Mother fucker. I had a perfectly laid out response in my head this morning when I read your reply. Now that I get home, I can't remember shit that I had. But I had a great rebuttal to this. I do know it has something to do with something that everyone has a choice in. Everyone has that choice as to whether or not they want to be buried. Gay people do not have a choice to get married. I don't see why them having that option is such a big deal.

But why is "forcing the issue" your problem? Why do you care if gay people are allowed to get married. I don't know a lot about what's going on because it has no bearing on me.

Great to read, dude. Yes, we're getting by, man, thanks.

I must also throw out an lolol at Geoff for being scared of gay people. Funny stuff. Later, QD.

I'll help you out QD...

Tarnishing the meaning of a tradition. LOL. No. Gay marriage wont tarnish the meaning of marriage at all. Straight marriage already has that wrapped up. Here are some examples...

US Woman gets married to a rollercoaster
Woman getting married to fairground ride - Telegraph

Zsa Zsa Gabour and Felipe DeAlba, married for less than 24 hrs, Zsa Zsa has been married and divorced NINE TIMES, Remember--Divorce is equally as damning in the bible as homosexual marriage. EQUALLY.

German man marries his cat
Going Postal: German man marries his dying cat, Cecilia | News | National Post

Britney Spears and Jason Alexander, married and annulled in less than 3 days.

Honestly, if I wanted to keep listing whimsical celebrity marriages and divorces, I'd need another thread...

So no, gay marriage doesnt tarnish the sanctity of marriage. That argument has been squashed.

It is everyone's problem when they do not wish to follow the process to properly change the law. Everyone else has to petition their state congressmen when they want a marriage law changed, why should a specific special interest minority group be allowed to overthrow the normal process?

In 1996, GA enacted section 19-3-3.1 in the Georgia Code, stopping gay marriage in other states from being recognized in GA. The gay community has not even bothered to make much of a challenge to the law.

In 2004, GA's state congress passed SR 595, which ameded the GA state Constitution to define marriage as one man - one woman. Again, the gay community has not mounted any real challenge to the law.

Why can't the gay community work to change the GA law through the legal process? Do they think that they cannot get enough support?

I don't know, dude. I guess I just don't care enough to make it a concern for me. I guess I'd like to be at a point in my life where I could let other people's issues be my issues. Later, QD.

GA also voted for Slavery. Every man and woman is created equal. This can not be a state issue, it's a U.S. issue. Remember when some states allowed slavery and some didn't - that didn't work out at all for the States. If gay marriage isn't accepted in one state, but is in another - how do you not see the same separation of states during the civil war. A war when the purpose was equality, and freedom. There is no way equality can be meet without the states acting as the U.S.A. I don't think you understand history to well, or you'd have seen what I said, instead of your short-sighted comment.
