Is it a good thing for same sex marriage to be legal in the US

Hi again, You misunderstood my statement about the obvious effects of a whole world being a part of a same sex marriage. You said: "legalizing of same sex marriage is not the same as forcing everyone to be a member of the LGBT community" Great. I never said that everyone would be "forced", I said that IF "every single human being on earth was homosexual and engaged in a faithful monogamous same sex marriage.....then I'm afraid that we wouldn't be having this debate right now because the entire human race would have gone extinct about 900 years ago". I assume they all wanted to be in a homo marriage, not forced. Now, I also said that, IF everyone in the world took care of the environment, or IF everyone loved their children, that would be "good", and the effects of that would, I'm sure, be agreeable to us both. If its good for anybody, its good for everybody. However, IF everyone 1000 years ago was "engaged in a faithful monogamous same sex marriage", the human race would have gone extinct long ago.. That's looking at homo marriage objectively, (ie, what are the products of it, and how are they justified) ***** Now, on the other hand, YOUR appeal to emotion is NOT objective, it is purely subjective. For example, you said: "By legalizing same sex marriage we are allowing people who are already in love and married even without the legal paper work, to finally be able to fill that paper work out,..." ..."in love"?? ...is that how law should be dictated and altered in your opinion? ...is "love" your standard of what should be lawful and good for the nation? okay, lets go there then... Firstly, I want to clarify something: that even before the legislating of gay marriage, homos have historically had the same liberties and restrictions as heteros have had in regards to marriage; in other words, FULL EQUALITY OF RIGHTS. How? For example: 1) both homos and heteros had to marry the same species (no bestiality), 2) both could not marry their immediate relatives (no incest) 3) both had to marry the opposite sex(no homo marriage), and 4) both could not marry more than one person (no polygamy), etc... So, if you think it is a GOOD thing to eliminate one of these restrictions(no homo marriage) primarily based on "love", then what is stopping the rest of the restrictions from being thrown out? Why not eliminate them all? Well, just for fun, lets see how that would look, shall we? So, if "love" is all it should take to change the established laws of the land, then what about the man who is "in love" with five or six women at once? Should he be able to marry them all? If you don't agree, then you are a Polygamophobe who hates that man and doesn't want him to be happy. Or, what about the 55 year old father who has a passionate "love" for his 18 year old daughter who is also "in love" with him? Are you going to refuse their right to marry and have sex with each other, even if they are "in love"? If you don't think a father and his daughter should have sex and get married, then you are an Incestophobic bigot. Or what about your best friend who has a strong "love" for his/her dog, which obviously loves them back? Are you going to disallow their right to have sex with each other and get married, even if they aren't both human? Who cares though??...as long as they are "in love", right? Isn't "love" enough to convince you that it is "good" and lawful? Furthermore, if the thought of your best friend having sex with an animal makes you uncomfortable, then that just proves you are a Beastiophobic hater of animals, I suppose. Naturally, it also means you hate your best friend. Get it? You see where I am going with this? Once you establish new laws by what people "love" and things that they are attracted to, then where does it stop?? I will tell you. It doesn't. ***** As for homos adopting children, well, I have a little experience with this, but take it as you will: A female homo couple I knew, had an adopted daughter, and it was extremely awkward when that girl got a boyfriend(no surprise there), since, well, her "parents" seemed to have a hatred for men. And that girl obviously couldn't talk to her "moms" about boys, since they let that ship sail long ago, and it was almost as if their lifestyle was not good enough for her, because well, she liked boys, not girls......yup, it was awkward as hell to say the least. On the other hand, that would never happen with male and female parents. Just a thought. ***** Your last point was just a reiteration of your first point of allowing people to do what they "feel" they want to do. Your main argument was subjective, not objective, for it only dealt with feelings, not facts. Thank you.
