Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: NO!!!

I don't like the word gay being associated with homosexuals, I think pervert is more descriptive. Most people view marriage as the unity between two people of the opposite sex. Perverts who perform perverted acts on each other are trying to hijack the word marriage and apply it to their perversions. Perverts are so quick to point out that they are homosexuals, I don't see people on TV running around yelling 'I'm hetero'. Years ago the perverts were out in the streets protesting that the Federal gov. wasn't spending enough money on AIDS research. Excuse me? It's like Reagan said: AIDS is almost a fully presentable disease - don't share needles, and wear a condom if you are going to insert your penis into another human being's rectum. But, but, the perverts don't like the way it feels if they have to wear a condom, and they want your tax dollars to be used to find a cure, so they can just go out to homosexuals bars, pop a pill, and then go insert their penis into a rectum. AIDS is rampant in parts of Africa - up to 70% of the population of some countries have the virus - because the men refuse to wear condoms. Why? Because it doesn't feel good, so the vast majority of people, married, single, man and woman end up with the AIDS virus. Some perverts think they can trick people into making people believe they are hetero by getting married to a woman, and at the same time they are engaging in risky behavior performing perverted acts on other perverts. So now there is a risk of a woman contracting AIDS because she is unwittingly involved with a lying pervert.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: NO!!!

All of the people calling certain others hypocrites have obviously never heard of the old or new covenants within which certain things from the old are made obsolete gay marriage is not one of them.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

People are blind to the real point. Gay marriage is NOT a matter for the state. Marriage is an institution created by God maintained by the church. The state has no right to dictate the actions of the church. This is a violation of the constitution the state is overstepping its bounds and its encroaching upon the rights of the church. This is an effort to take away the churches power and moral effectiveness. The constitution recognizes the churches role in a free society and the church itself is a needed structure in society, The framers of the constitution recognize and respects the soverignty of God HIS laws and the churches authority to declare them and enforce them. So gay marrige is wrong on a constitutional level and on a moral level so throuroughly it violates the laws of God and nature and lastly it violates the constitution.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: NO!!!

Not at all. It is not healthy OR natural. It is quite gross. It makes me sick thinking about it.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: Not as important as

Having the right to marry or not is not as important as how they get it. If the legislature or the people vote for it, ok. That's how the law works and I will support that. If it is passed by executive order or judicial review, it is an outrageous violation of our system of govt. Like it or not, this is a change, and all changes must go through the proper channels. Oh, and equal protection under the law does not apply here because gays are allowed to marry exactly the same as straight people: a member of the opposite sex. It's not what they want of course, so change the law. I'm behind that 100% When we get what we want legally, it's called constitutional govt. When we get what we want or even think is right but usurp the law, that is dictatorship, and I will fight that forever.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: NO!!!

I have nothing wrong with two people of the same sex having the same rights as two people married via civil union, but marriage is a little too far. I'm all for individual freedom and that people should have the right to do as they please, but that doesn't mean they have the right to disrespect others. Many gays don't want civil union, they want MARRIAGE which is defined as "Two people joined together in Holy Matromony." Many religions oppose homosexuality and refuse to marry a gay couple. If gays want to be MARRIED instead of legally bonded, then they need to learn a word called RESPECT. There is a very small chance that the gay couple are religious, but they need to respect the fact that for a priest to marry a gay couple it could be considered sack-religious!!! If gays want the same rights as a married couple, that's fine. If they want to be married in Holy Matromony, that's blasphemy.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: NO!!!

i am absolutely sure that homosexual beings have no right to marry. the nature created male and female for Posterity reproduction. the unite of two people with the same gender has no chance for producing next generation that is why their marriage does not make sense. We must not do things against the nature otherwise we should suffer and die.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

I think the question of whether they should have a legal right to marry is a no-brainer. Say what you will about your moral and / or religious objections, those are not reasons to be considered as a matter of policy.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

We've had this argument over and over again with the same weigh-ins as all the rest. I say yes, they should have the right to marry if they so choose. It hurts no one and helps many...children included. Children don't end up gay because their parents are no more than children grow up straight because their parents are straight. Let it go and go get married!
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: Shenanigans

Wow, there are some serious shenanigans going on in this thread. There's not enough debate on either side to justify a 15-0 (as of this posting) Top-score. All arguments on this side have been downvoted to zero with no additional (primary) rebuttals since yesterday. Did fox news issue a call to arms or something?
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: Shenanigans

Seriously this argument has 14 points right now:"Yes it is immoral no matter what you say its wrong and another thing in the bible stated man shall not lay with man."I haven't been around long, but I think I know the community well enough to know that that wouldn't normally get upvoted at all.Cmon, fess up. Who got all their youth group buddies to band together and teach all the lib'rals a lesson?
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

Man this debate is active again? Jeez come on guys. Gays should have the right to do as any hetero couple. If it's been proven that people dont have a choice at birth are we gonna go back to the mindset of the 40s ? Black people cant help being black gay people cant help being gay. I'm 17 and most of the people debating on this debate have far more years of experiance in the world but cannot seem to see past this? Grow up.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

Yes, gay people should be allowed to make themselves every bit as miserable as straight people. Why should they get to avoid the endless bickering and squabbling that accompanies "marital bliss"?;)
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

that was really quite cute Banshee.......................................................................... :)
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

Yes. While don't agree morally or naturally with homosexuality, I don't see it as very American to restrict who someone can marry. Seems a bit petty.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

Just out of curiosity what do you mean you don't agree morally or naturally with homosexuality? Do you mean you aren't homosexual, I don't understand?
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

I mean that I don't agree that homosexuality is a natural thing. I believe it is the result of complex emotional and psychological patterns, similar to those that make people hypersexual. And, yes, I am heterosexual.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

What do you mean it isn't a natural thing? Are you saying that homosexuals choose to be gay? And why then are there many species which exhibit homosexuality?
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

Correct - I do not believe that homosexuality is a natural thing. I think I stated that. I also, however, don't believe that most homosexuals "choose" to be gay. I think that there are many factors that create a state in which one's mind opens to certain desires, and for whatever reason becomes infatuated with it. It then becomes very "natural" to that person. I can respect that in lieu of a more substantiated theory. The fact that there are occurances of this in life only supports the notion that this anomoly exists in more than the human race. We should study the similarities to understand what this better. All that being said, I do not believe that it is very American to disallow marriage based on homosexual tendancies or persuasions, regardless of what I think is "right".
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

While I am glad you do not support restricting rights based upon your own perception of morality, I encourage you to do research on the nature of homosexuality. The American Psychiatric Association defines homosexuality as a normal variant of sexuality. It wouldn't really described as an anomaly. Approximately 10% of the human population is homosexual, and homosexuality has been linked to genetic factors. It is a natural thing that has been observed in approximately 1500 other species.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: NO!!!

So do you think brothers and sisters should be able to be married?
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

Of course they should. What justification is there for recognising one couple's commitment to each other and not another couple's, when they are committed to the same values? Doesn't denying them the same benefits as mixed sex couples constitute a form of sexual descrimination?
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

I don't really see why not. I mean, they pay taxes and deal with all of the bullshit the rest of the country does every day. Denying them something is basically making them sub-human, and that's pretty sick I think.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

By keeping homosexuals from marrying, you are sending the message that something is wrong with them.To say that they deserve to marry is insane. It isn't a matter of deserving. It is a matter of fair and equal treatment under the law.Some day, in the future, we will look back at the people who opposed homosexual marriage the same way we view those who opposed interracial marriage or the right of the mentally disabled to marry.Since a marriage is a government identified institution, the government MUST treat all citizens equally and afford everyone the same opportunities.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

There is only one thing I think should be considered here: equality.And the Civil Rights Act, which I'm pretty sure demanded respect for people, no matter what sexuality.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

If you don't want a gay marriage, don't get one. what goes on behind closed doors goes on behind closed doors. As long as it's consensual, it's okay. End of story.

In winter i will just wear them like a scarf , and in the summer , when i wade in the water my boobs can too . I spose for the kinda bitch i am now , and the nutter i once was, that i may be quite a doozy of an old witch / hag at 110 , Arsehole thugs or bullies , may want to take advantage of my frail shrunken 3ft carcass , so i guess i should probably learn to use them as nunchuks as well. Hey and at parties i could do Boob Animals, And last but not least , i am glad i only got one tiny tattoo , other wise if i got heaps , at the age of 110 , i would look like a screwed up comic book. btw you can kiss my rose tattoo!

Well did you have a soldier who died in Iraq yet? A hole new experience ! So before you pour your life story on me maybe you can find someone else to rag off to because you need help by the sounds of it ! O! and I found a 97year old guy for ya his name is Jack youoff he really wants to date you, picture it , Dacey likes Jack youoff. wow thats awesome 7:00 he will pick you up in his model T ok HAPPY LAST YEAR!!!
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: NO!!!

"Well did you have a soldier who died in Iraq yet?"No i havent, and my genuine sympathies to you.Because i feel sorry for you , i wont bite back too nasty."Dacey likes Jack youoff. wow thats awesome "No , not really . I give better head. just ask my old fart of a partner.PS. Did your brother , bravely , chose to take this risk to go to war? I am sorry , but what has it got to do with gays having the right to marry? If you are bitter and so you just condemn because you hate , then i am really sorry that your brothers choices affected you to such a degree. There is no time limited on a persons grieving , but to have it affect on how you would treat those that are not to your liking , is bias, and is quite degrading , to yourself , and is emotional abuse to the person you are socially rejecting. What yourself and the like dont understand about me is that i have no problem with people who are homophobic , i have a very big problem with homophobic persons , saying things such as what you said. I will remind you -------"I'm assuming your a fag yourself? I hate FAGS they need to DIE and stop being gay whats the world coming to?" :(This was directed at jklopiu. Now you can say it isnt my business to butt in , but you are wrong in thinking that. As you had no problem attacking some random person for their oppinion , that person being jklopiu . So yes , i feel sympathy for your loss , but hey , FAIRS FAIR....ps i wont bag out FORDS or my family will disown me.

Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

Really? You dont care? Your first post and the reason why i attacked you amongst all the others was simply because you said all gays should die.How do you know how many gays are in the army?Do you know that statistically with how many gays there actually is (including those still in the closet) that someone you love and care about , could very well be gay.You have tried to shut me up by trying to make me feel guilty over your brother.Sorry but unless your brother was/is gay , then i fail to see what your brother has to do with this debate. As for your so-called respect for the troops, well i dont think most would respect what you just said in your post above. So i have had enough of trying to get thru to such a rude abnoxious person like you. GROW UP!

The idea of restricting the rights of a minority group disgusts me. I thought we had overcome bigotry.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

A gay guy wanting to marry in a christian church is like a black guy wanting to join the Ku Klux KlanBut Id rather want gay christians to marry then heterosexual christians for gay christians cant have children so they cant spread their stupid beliefs as much as heterosexualsIn terms of going to a city council and get married (for legal reasons) I think any couple regardless of sex should be able to get a certificate of that under law

Since when is government 'approval' (for lack of a better word, perhaps, regarding being tax-exempt) an acceptable litmus test for the legitimacy of a church?Put another way, Jesus wasn't exactly the Romans' favorite person...
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: NO!!!

I am not arguing about that. - But churches that are exempt from taxes have political power while ones who dont; dontand Gays having the right to marry I think is a human rights/political issueand about the Jesus comment: very true, but there was no organized church around jesus until 384 ADChurch (an institution that has the right to legally marry someone) is not exactly the same thing as a Religion (a creed of some sort)

Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

Yes.Here's why: there's this one quote in the movie 'What happens in Vegas' that I effin admire... the judge declares that it's not gays that ruin marriage, but people that go to Vegas (or a place similar to it, or no where really) and get married on impulse, and then go on and get divorces... therefore, treating marriage like a bit, fat, joke.Seriously, marriages should be banned in places like Vegas, places loaded with alcohol and immature behavior, banned for people that have known each other, perhaps, for less than a year, people that treat marriage like a piece of shit. At LEAST gays are fighting for the goddamn thing out of respect, integrity, and love. So, yes, gays should have the right to marry because they're more serious about it than the common straight couple is. I don't care what's in between someone's fucking legs, it's the motives, desire, commitment and love that counts.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

I'm gonna have to say that it's untrue that gays are "more serious about it than the common straight couple is."Every couples is different, and straight, gay, bisexual, open, polygamous, whatever.... it's the individuals involved that make the relationship work. Not the "mold" it comes out of.I'd also like to defend Vegas Weddings. They're Cheap, and fun. I actually plan on having one, someday.You're so attached to stereotypes.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

Stereotypes are statistics. You wanna ignore stereotypes, then go ahead and ignore statistics too.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

Oh, gosh. That is so untrue.Stereotypes are a generalized perception of a group. Statistics are the products of actuality.They are completely different.
