    see below
    Marriage is already a right. It cannot be infringed upon unless you want to overturn our government into a religious oligarchy.
    That's not working too well in the modern world for Iran (ie: everyone hates them and they probably don't have enough toilet paper to go around as we speak).

    Its biology, has absolutely nothing to do with religion.






    Just where are you detecting religion in any of this? Its biology. Nothing else.

    If it's biology then gays win the argument hands down. "Biology" dictates certain attractions to each other. Well gays are attracted to same sex partners.
    Also who is to say the gay gene is not a natural form of birth control?
    Nothing is at risk here in human continuity. You can no more make someone gay than you can make them heterosexual. I suggest Americans take a chill pill over this one and know gay marriage is not going to bring about Armageddon nor will it make the
    Mayan calendar true or mean the end of gravity.

    Anyone who sees people not as members of one species among many, but as human beings with God-given self-control for whom the most natural form of birth control is abstinence. You're welcome.

    biology is irrelevant. marriage is a basic civil right.

    you would need to prove the existence of your god in order for this statement to have any relevance.

    I don't support gay marriage and everything relevant to gays I find completely disgusting.
    Why don't you, who is 2% of the population, leave alone the remaining 98% by creating a state, for example, calling it a "Gayland. Where the gays are free!" and do whatever you want there?!
    Why don't you stop harassing people, calling them "extremists, haters, fascists, etc", promote laws which would fire me from work, etc, just because they don't like you and leave them alone?
    You are gay, want to marry, everybody should understand you and tolerate you. But I don't like you, why you don't want to understand me?!

    PS. Not responding to "Jonny-C" member or who has a similar behavior".

    I find your expressions of hatred and bigotry to be as disgusting as child porn.

    Sorry, but Rahl isnt a credible source on the topic. You feel free to cite ANY study that shows marriage between two people of the same sex promotes stability. You know, to show us you people arent just making the (*)(*)(*)(*) up as you go along, AGAIN.

    lol, I'm not credible? I'm not the one who continues to parrot long refuted arguments or whine and cry strawman when my arguments get blown to bits.

    also, it's funny you demand a study to support the bolded statement, but you of course failed to provide any study supporting your claim of marriage between a man and woman promoting stability

    You of course edited out the FIRST step in the process.

    I'll rely upon ANY study debateme, or you want to share with us.

    Here's an idea.

    Look at the facts. Children do better in a stable two parent home. This provides them with more love, attention, stability, and opportunity to succeed.

    Correct or incorrect? How does the gender of those two parents effect the child?

    Let's hear it Dixion. How does having two parents of the same gender disadvantage a child?

    ???? I never claimed having two parents of the same gender disadvantages a child. I'll wait here while you run down that strawman.

    what did I edit out? I wasn't responding to debateme. I was responding directly to your, as of yet, baseless assertion that "marriage between a man and a woman promotes stability".

    YOU made the claim, the onus is on YOU to prove it.

    So you were just being facetious when you asked
    So you agree then that a two parent same gender home provides that same stability as a two parent opposite gender home?

    Nope, stop trying to attribute views to me that I have never stated.

    Well you know dixon, now would be a great time to clarify your views on homes with children and parents of the same gender.

    Children raised by their married, biological parents in the home thrive when compared to those who are not.
    Children raised by parents of the same gender have no such advantage when compared to children who are not.

    Do you have the evidence to back this statement up, or is this just your opinion?

    The first part, there is an abundance of evidence. The second part is opinion based upon the absence of any evidence.

    So you never said they were disadvantaged...and you never said they were equal.

    So then, how about you clarify your beliefs on them?

    Because you're running in circles now.
