Thoughts on same sex marriage

| Rebuttal | So maybe they can't procreate but how are we to say someone can't marry someone they love huh? Well if you’re a law-maker of some sort, then yes you can. And we’re talking about sex type here, not who you are allowed to love. I don’t see any reason why gays can’t simply decide not to marry, and just be friends with each other out of love. We are all for equal rights supposedly. I don’t think like that. I don’t believe a King is equal with its people… Say, I don’t think civilians should have equal rights with the president to command the army. I do believe it’s alright for certain unequal rights where it’s reasonable. Obviously gun rights aren’t equal always with civilian and military, for good reason. If you’re going to make gay marriage happen, then might as well make it equal. Its inevitable because some politician down the road will make it happen to unfairly win votes in a democratic or republic kind of society. These little decisions can make these butterfly effects likely happen down the road when the gay crowds grow larger from being legalized and more accepted. WE CANT TELL PEOPEL THEY MUST MARRY SOMEONE OF THE OPPOSITE SEX. True I can’t because I’m not a person given power or authority to fiat these decisions by society. This isn’t a real policy debate, as its simply asking for thoughts on same sex marriages (so it doesn’t really matter if I can tell and can’t tell). However if in the event that society granted me the power to make these decisions where I can tell people of the society whom they can and can’t marry, then I would say only marry someone of the opposite sex. Because heterosexual marriages contributes better then homosexual relationships because they procreate. And financial wise, they would be more a liability then an asset for society because we would have to give them the same benefits for the sake of equal rights (when they don’t contribute procreation). For me, it’s more or less a debased mindset because you’re not maximizing a society’s potential. I think one should love society just as much as yourself, so when being gay in a sense you’re just loving yourself more than society. And it was or em that gay couple are happier and last longer which means less divorces. I’m highly skeptical on any research regarding gays being “happier”. I mean how can you possibly measure happiness? For both the gay and straight would simply say I’m happy. And saying that they last longer may not be true because the research is lesser compared to the research on opposite sex marriages. The size of the two is radically different, so there are reasons that the research is simply unreliable. And there can be something that inflates divorce rates in some way for the heterosexual relationships opposed to same sex (mail-order bride, or another marriage marketing avenue) Also to point out that some people use divorce as a tool to acquire a more attractive spouse... not for love. It makes perfect sense for some guys to abandon a fat ugly wife and swap her out for a super-hot underwear\bikini model if given the chance. This adulterous behavior could unfairly be inflating the divorce rates because not everyone marries for love, but for looks in opposite sex marriage. “Everyone who divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery, and he who marries a woman divorced from her husband commits adultery.” ---------- Jesus Christ | Closing Statement | To be clear… I don’t hate gays, I simply think that opposite sex marriages are intrinsically more profitable for mankind than same-sex. I know this is kind of a touchy debate, so love and peace be to all, and thank you for taking time to read this debate.
