Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: YES

You are disgusting. Typical CONservative. It is a fact that sexual abuse is underreported. It is the most difficult crime to convict. A lot of victim blaming goes on. I was molested so I know.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: NO

You know only that you were molested you don't know who els was or how many others were. The fact of the matter is molestation is actually quite rare as is rape that's not to say they don't happen they just aren't very common.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: YES

You disgust me. Sexual abuse is a big problem. Victim blaming like yours contribute to the problem.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: NO

I'm not blaming anyone all I'm saying is its not as common as we think it is.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: NO

Besides the Catholic Church dose allow for marriage annulments.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: YES

Lol man you are making religious people look bad man, views like yours is the reason more people are becoming none religious and even atheist.Keep it up, you and your kind are going a great job : )
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: NO

It's not even really a religious confliction that I have with same sex marriage. I just don't think they are valid given the actual prepose of a marriage.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: YES

lol, really?
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: YES

Than why the fuck have we not outlawed traditional marriage that does not achieve that goal? Why not take it further and make it illegal to marry without agreeing to procreate?
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: NO

I see marriage as an agreement to procreate in and of its self.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: YES

The majority of the people in this country apparently don't some people just get married because they want to spend the rest of their lives together and nothing more, most people don't see a problem with that. Besides it is a free country people should be married no matter sexual orientation and no matter what reason they are getting married.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: NO

But can't they just live together with out getting married? Or how about entering a domestic partnership what's wrong with those. Leave marriages to those who can carry them out properly.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: YES

Carrying out marriages properley you mean loving each other unconditionally until parted by death, Gay people are capable of this, so should be allowed to marry.There is nothing in marriage vows saying that you promise to procreate.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: NO

Straight people have marriages gay people have domestic partnerships they are practically the same thing why change it there's really no need to.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: YES

You may as well get rid of the whole thing in that case because everyone can live together without getting married it could be argued that its an outdated institution.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: NO

So your argument is if gay people can't get married no one can? I already said they have domestic partnerships and there is virtually no difference between that and marriage so why stir up so much controversy.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: YES

If this subject is so hard for you to comprehend then you have no sense of equality, which is a little worrying and sad.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: NO

I just don't see why it's so important in the over all scheme of things. Especially given all the other, more pressing problems we face at the moment. It just seems so trivial to me.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: YES

If equality is not such a big deal and is so trivial to you why are you so anti it why not let the people it is important to have equality
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: YES

can't they just live together without getting married or entering an domestic partnership The point I am trying to make is that gay marriage does not harm anybody and our government should not at all be involved in it that is how a free country works!
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?

can't they just live together without getting married or entering an domestic partnership? The point I am trying to make is that gay marriage does not harm anybody and our government should not at all be involved in it that is how a free country works!
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: NO

They already are. If you want them out of the business of marriages you should instead support the abolition of the marriage license.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: YES

oh yeah, by the way, fuck you. you bigoted asshole. you deserve to have what you love taken away from you. then you'll see how it feels
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: NO

Oh my did I strike a nerve? Well I certainly hope your not confusing insults with arguments.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: YES

do you have any idea how wrong you are? marriage is not about reproduction (though that may come with it). marriage is just a formal way of two people saying they love each other. Who's to say a man can't love another man, or woman love another woman. God isn't a valid answer either because a religious debate cannot be won and therefor forfeits the debate. who ever uses god as an argument cannot debate because it stops them from being openmindedsorry i went a little off topic
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: YES

Wrong. Who are you to force your outdated beliefs on others. Who I marry, what I do with my body is none of your business. I have the right to choose. If I want to use contraception, that is my right. If I want to marry a woman, that is my right. The Constitution protects freedom of belief and choice.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: NO

The first amendment (which I assume you are fearing to) as it was written by the founders and thus originally meant to be interpreted provides for freedom of religion and free speech as well as the right to peaceably assemble and petition the government for a redress of grievances. I see nothing in there of the rest of the bill of rights for that matter that affirms a right to gay marriage.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: YES

Yes but it also prevents the government from establishing any one specific religion. If the government "redresses" the grievances against gay marriage it will only establish the Christian faith further which is against the constitution.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: NO

But what if the majority is against it? It isn't a constitutionally affirmed right so as such it should be subject to popular will. We do live under a representative government do we not?
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: YES

The majority of people in this country are supportive of gay marriage, look it up.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: YES

No Sexual reproduction in homo sapiens produces offspring you dolt, marriage is the institution which is in place to facilitate a sense of commitment and social acceptance.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: NO

No it's prepose is to bind two mates together so they can rear a child.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: YES

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MarriageThis should be a good start to find out how the custom originated.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: NO

Wikipedia can be edited by anyone a lot of things on that website are wrong.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: YES

Well, if you look to the right hand corner near the top of the page it should have a small lock, either closed or open. If you mouse over it you will receive a brief summary of the pages security. As posted in the link the page has been locked from editing due to the articles controversy. Your welcome :)
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: NO

I would still try to find a more creditable source than Wikipedia. It may be un editable but it still begs the question who wrote the article originally and what was his/her/their qualifications.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: YES

Did you use the Bibliography of sources listed below to see the credentials of the providers of said information? If no you have no valid basis in being skeptical.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: NO

What sources? I didn't see any author names listed. I saw names listed in the articles as part of the argument but I did not see the name of the articles author listed any ware.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: NO

How can u support same sex marriage, its one of the most disgusting things in the history of man kind.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: NO

The notion of same-sex marriage is something completely new to Earth civilization. Even in Gay Greece marriage was still marriage between a man and a woman. This new concept was introduced by the new "politically correct" liberals just recently, and now it is for some reason considered to be the pinnacle of "freedom" and "democracy". But it obviously has nothing to do with democracy, since the overwhelming majority of US population opposes it.As for freedom - it's only the freedom of the mass media to LIE over and over again, like parrots, about the "harmlessness" of the gay lifestyle, and the discovery of the genetic origins of gayness. While in reality, both statements are far from being true, and this is proved by numerous scientific and medical sources. A list of them would take several forum pages.So, this obsession with redefining the word "marriage", as a step in gay "rights" support, is quite strange. Everyone has the right to be a drug addict, but no one has the right to spread information that its "harmless".
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: YES

How is it harmful? And no... you don't have the right to be a drug addict. (In Britain, anyway)
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: NO

As mentioned in my previous argument, a lot of medical evidence points out to the fact that the male gay lifestyle is a real health threat to those who indulge in it.As far as I am informed, it is also quite difficult to get out of it, so it seems to be addictive.It seriously reduces lifespan.Hence the comparison to drug addiction.In many European counties, it is not actually a crime to be a drug addict (as opposed to being a dealer). But if someone on the mass media would start telling stories about how drug addiction is harmless and wonderfully, - they would definitely lose their job, and maybe end up in jail.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: YES

Sources? It is a crime to possess illegal drugs, even if it's only for personal use.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: YES

I've just looked it up, and was surprised just how many countries in the EU do not prosecute drug use: Denmark, Germany, Italy, Austria. Storage can be prosecuted, but an addict does not have to store them, right?As a matter of fact, in Britain and Ireland it is only illegal to use opium based drugs, but not weed.In Belgium - only group use is a crime.In Spain and Luxembourg - only use in public places is a crime.Et cetera.I have no idea why I'm telling you all this - I've never used or wanted to use any drug.And anyway, this is far off the topic.I only put up this subject, to draw an analogy with the addictive and harmful gay lifestyle. I compared its proponents to people who would speak in favor of drug addiction, in the mass media.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: YES

Sorry for this mess - I cannot understand how I can delete an argument here.It seems clarifying made me change sides within the argument.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: YES

Cannabis. Weed and Marijuana are colloquialisms that are not used here, (we use the actual name of the plant :P ). And Cannabis is illegal, either class B or C (it fluctuates- and I can't acess information on drugs at the moment). I do know the drug lawes in my country. Yet again~ SOURCES. Reliable, academic ones! You have shown no proof at the moment that a 'gay lifestyle' is harmful, any more than a straight one.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: YES

About the gay lifestyle: the sources I have quoted are either statistics gatehered by medicgical orginizations. Check out CDC: if it is not a reliable source of statistics, then what is? (The organization' s purpose is to control the spread of different diceases).And the other sources are just what you said: academic research - regarding lifespan, and average quantity of sexuals partners, of male gays.If you want proof that it is actually academic research - then I can only suggest you check it out at some public library. Or at a biological faculty library of some college.The only way to find out if its valid in the scientific world, is to check out the cross quotation index, which you would be able to do in such a library.As I'd said before, these sources are just a minor fraction of the available research.If you want a full list of about 100 articles, I can place it here. But will you bother to look up those articles, let alone read the list?About the illegal drugs question - it's really irrelevant here. Maybe I was wrong about Britain, but in some contries it's certainly not a crime to consume drugs, if you don't store or sell them. For example, in Russia. I do know the druf laws in my country.Once again, this was just a metaphor. You could as well replace drug addict by alchoholic, without my comparison loosing it's value.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: YES

You are not against same sex marriage then, you are against oral and anal sex on health grounds. They can, and are advised to use a condom. These STD's are prevalent among straight couples as well as gay couples.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: YES

Before I write anything else on this subject, please tell me if you've read my response to xBetzy. You had both disputed my initial post, but I wrote a detailed reply, with sources listed, only to xBetzy, since I'd thought that others who dispute it, would read all of my answers.Anyway, in that response I listed several sources, which prove the fact that there is a really big difference between straight and gay men, regarding STD transmition, and health in general. Statistically, gay men are at least 20 times more likely to conrtact HIV, similar figures for siphylis.And gay marriage isn't really about marriage, only about 1% of gays have gotten married, since and where it was allowed. This whole marriage thing is about creating a legal precedent, for further pushing the gay agenda.Anyway, I have "written something else on this subject", but please read my answer to xBetzy, so we can have a meaningful discussion.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: YES

This is because they are not practicing 'safe sex'. Straight men also practice oral and anal sex with women, and I agree that these are unhealthy whichever gender you use. The misconception they may have that condoms are not needed in a gay relationship (as there is no pregnancy risk), but they are still needed to stop STD's. I am sure the risk of HIV &Cwould drop sharply if they all used contraception.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: YES

I wrote about the STD problem, since it's the most obvious negative issue of the gay lifestyle.The other fact is that they are much more promiscuous, than straight people. That is evident from many special surveys. Only about two percent of gays live in what we call a "relationship". A decade or so ago, when agenda gays were actually "anti - marriage", they did not think it necessary to hide their promiscuity. At that time it was a sign of "freedom", e.t.c. That's when the surveys were made, and nothing has changed since then.This is further proved by the fact, that only about 1 percent of gays have currently got married, in places where gay marriage has been legalized. In reality, most gay men hate themselves, and that's why they don't care much about protecting their health, by using condoms. Sources? Well, thats my theory, but it's based on the well - known fact, that gays are very prone to violence against other gays (and thats a fact, from criminal reports). Gays have statistically a much higher chance to get assaulted by other gays, than by straight people.The other health issues they have, are mental health problems - also with a much higher rate that straights. If they "truly found themselves, by coming out of the closet", then why are they such a miserable bunch of people with mental issues?What they seek from society is constant confirmation, that they are "OK". They themselves do not have this confidence.And there are good reasons for that. Their lifestyle is damaging on many levels:1. Physiologically - gay sex is anti physiological, the body part they use for sex is designed for an entirely different purpose. Many of their health problems are caused by this, thats apart from STDs caused by unsafe sex.2. Biologically - the immune system gets damaged, just because of the manner of their sexual acts. The gay immune system is, statistically, more often than not, in terrible shape.3. Energetically - several meridians get permanently wrecked up, including the lower ring. Points on the spine get closed, blocking energy, and seriously hurting the immune system. I know that this is considered a myth by western science, but acupuncture is proven do be capable of doing miracles, and it's based on the meridian system.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: YES

Many people are anti-marriage: including me. That does not exclude other people associated with me from getting married. As an oppressed group, who have been and continue to be told that they 'sin', are 'going to hell', that they are 'wrong and 'dirty', I can see how they would need emotional and psychological support. 1) yet again, you are against anal and oral sex- which is practiced by straight people as well as gays2) "" 3) Meridians are also considered a myth.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: NO

1. I do not see that gays are really an oppressed group. For example: I used to practice chi - kung and taoist yoga, and our Christian orthodox church told me that I 'sinned' and 'was going to hell'. I couldn't care less about that, and I also knew where THEY were going. So, if you are confident of yourself, you don't really care about what other people, or groups of people, tell you about your way of life being wrong.2. True about straight people practicing that kind of sex. I also think it's wrong. However, for one thing, it's still done on a much smaller scale. Most importantly: anal sex is the HALLMARK of the gay lifestyle, and that hallmark is destructive to their physical and mental health. The media is lying, when they portray it as "harmless", and I consider that to actually be a crime. They should be prosecuted, for intentionally dis-informing people about a dangerous lifestyle. As I've said before, this could be compared to public promotion of alcoholism: it's also an addictive condition, which reduces lifespan.3. Meridians may be considered a myth in a part of the world. But you just cannot deny the fact, that acupuncture has saved the health and lives of many people, when the 'classical' medicine was helpless.About marriage: as I've said, gays don't really need marriage. The whole gay marriage construction is meant to create a legal precedent, in countries where law is precedent - based. For example: how can you not teach about gays in schools, when they are even allowed to marry -> et cetera. A whole army of lawyers is ready to use this precedent, to further the cause of gay propaganda. That propaganda is, for most part, intentional disinformation about a dangerous lifestyle. That' s the plot behind the whole gay marriage construct, and that's why I think gay marriage is evil.About emotional and psychological support: they do need psychological support. But by support I do not mean indulgence.Most gays became gay, either because of a traumatic sex - related experience in childhood, or a as a form of escapist protection from the psychological aggression of society - they no longer have to prove that they are "real men", and can still have sex. What they need is psychological counseling, to help them overcome the initial trauma. What the "agenda" people offer them, is poison under the guise of help.
Debate: Do you support same-sex marraige?
Side: YES

1) Not very long ago, homosexuality was a crime. And not everyone is strong enough to have faith in themselves- especially when everyone seems to be against them. 2) I am against it, but as long as it is not rape or pressured, they can do what they like in their own bedroom. that is sincerely none of my business.3) "A number of studies comparing traditional acupuncture to sham procedures found that both sham and traditional acupuncture were superior to usual care but were themselves equivalent; findings apparently at odds with traditional Chinese theories regarding acupuncture point specificity.[15]~ Wikipedia"Gay propaganda? In schools they tell us about gay people, what contraception they use and not to discriminate against them- but they don't make being gay sound attractive. gay marriage is about two people of the same gender who want to commit to each other in a romantic relationship, and have the same legal rights and recognition as a straight couple. Most gays become gay... Sources?

Pray tell where are these studies alluding to the "harmfulness" of two people of the same sex in a committed relationship?
