Debate: How can gay marriage hurt any one?
Side: Doesnt hurt anyone

I have a rather large rant against the choice of gay lifestyle, this is reason #4; I can supply the entire thing upon request - but I can promise NO pro-gay people will want to see it. Not that it's insulting, but that's it's logic is all but impossible to refute.4-An analogy would be; Try to imagine all the people on Earth are on a lifeboat and in danger of dying through lack of food, fresh water, etc. Now we can see dry land a couple miles away and the only way to get there is for everyone to stick their hands into the water and paddle in the same direction, towards the dry land. For those with rather less than stellar IQ's the analogy is Earth is the boat, the survivors are the people of Earth, advancing the human species is paddling towards dry land, and being gay is paddling the other way or not at all. If you are not part of the solution, then you are part of the problem. If you are not trying to actively advance the human species, then you should abstain from any benefits derived therefrom. You can choose to rob banks but you must live with the results, you can choose to be gay, but if everyone were gay then it would spell the end of human life on this planet. The movement for gay rights and LGBT equality is doomed to failure, or at the very least a fatally slanted naming convention (equality is equal if we are both trying to be like a standard model). This situation appears similar to the man on the lifeboat who never paddled being proud when the boat touches dry land and tries to grab some shade under a tree when there is only a limited amount. In the real world, almost everyone on the lifeboat would have pitched him overboard if he refused to TRY his best to help at paddling. Exceptions would be given for those that try and fail or that are wounded – but Gays are actively trying to paddle in another direction with no dry land visible. If I was one of those in the lifeboat, I would be angry to say the least. If I was one of those on shore already waiting for my fellow travelers or family members to make landfall, I would be angry as well. Admittedly this argument requires one to look at the bigger picture rather than just their little acorn, but the logic is obvious.Additionally, It reduces the pool from which to gain a spouse for normal heterosexual people. This is assuming that one starts life as heterosexual and for whatever reason becomes homosexual at some later point in time.If you consider that being gay is said to be “not a choice” by many people, then you might consider that robbing banks or other immoral behavior is the same. That being the case; When your child is young and tries to steal something, the child should be punished for stealing, if they continue to steal things then therapy might be sought if further punishment proves ineffective. Unless of course the child learns about the gay-rights movement, where then the child will simply say "I was born to steal stuff, I had no choice". So what are you gonna do on that day? Tell him it's okay to steal after all, or seek therapy/punishment for the errant youth??

I have Gay friends some of whom are married and some of whom have kids, the Kids do well in school and at least one of them is Straight the other thing I have noticed is that the population of the town is not dwindling in fact its increasing. To me this is proof that Gay people do not make better or worse parents than straight people and the real shocker having married Gay people in the world does not stop people having babies and their straight friends, have all stayed straight its amazing really.

Being gay is better than being straight hands down. Homosexual parents are STRONGLY better at their job than straight parents, only because they have heart and soul in their child. One thing that doesn't make sense about this debate is this "bible" thing being thrown around. One thing people need to get straight(no pun intended) is that the bible does not support ACTUAL evidence of anything it says. Yes indeed, it brings hope to people that are simply too blind and ignorant to find hope by themselves. Still, this does not show any relation to homosexual marriage. No book of possible fiction should tell who can and can't get married. It's a personal preference and everyone should honor the dignity and pride in a homosexual relationship.  - I apologize for the scattered arguments in this paragraph. It's really hard to stick to one topic when it makes me so angry that people actually believe they can tell who's allowed to get married and who's not. It sickens me that people can get away with such a crime to the point where I lose my train of thought.

Side: Doesnt hurt anyone

How can it indeed. For most people it seems to be a religious belief that gay marriage is a problem. In the modern world however (or in my country at least) people realise that trying to convince others of their religious beliefs tends to backfire spectacularly so those who oppose gay marriage instead try to find a secular justification for their disapproval and it never seems to work. Either they claim that gay parents damage children, something that becomes legal before gay marriage in many countries and is therefore nothing to do with marriage. Or they go down the slippery slope route, trying to claim that allowing gay marriage will allow other breaks from tradition that scare us all. It makes you wonder whether the anti gay crowd reacted to Saudi Arabia's legalisation of female drivers by claiming that even though women can drive the reform needs to be voted against just in case it paves the way for radical purple haired feminists that want to keep men in a dungeon to be milked like cattle

Gay marriage can't hurt anyone in any law of self-being. You have to be retarded to say, "People of the same sex can have the same rights as straight people? Oh no! Now I must be lesbian!" While straights were born with the right to marry, gays never said anything like that except, "I hope I don't get any rights stripped from me." It's honestly hilarious how y'all think two gay guys can't raise a kid because children need a father and mother. Your points are basically gender role influenced and bigoted.

The funny thing about “the land of the free” is that it’s amended to “bare arms” but not allowed to marry someone of the same sex. Who is it harming and who cares so much other than religions. Me personally I don’t care and I can’t go out of my way to say that it’s bothering or hurting me when it doesn’t concern me at all.

I want to point out a seldom talked about but nevertheless very important point:Gay marriage absolutely does erode "family", and here is why: the church - the summation of all religious institutions - wants to control the relationship between children and parents. This is of utmost importance to the church, because parents are the most reliable tool of mass religious indoctrination; and because much of the "sacred" beliefs are delivered as interaction between parents and children, which the followers are supposed to model. This is why the church seeks to control both licensing to procreation (marriage) and procreation itself (promiscuity, abortions, gay marriage). Anyone who treads on these interests of the church is opposed by the church because losing any of these defense lines directly reduces the church's market which is never going to come back. Gay marriage does exactly what the conservatives are complaining about: the necessity to allow gay people to marry means taking away the marriage prerogative from the church. It directly results in less believers and thus harms the religious thought as a whole.Gay marriage destroys marriage and traditional values, and that's why it's a great thing.

"Gay marriage destroys marriage and traditional values, and that's why it's a great thing."this is why the prop 8 passed. on the one hand. . .you all want the white picket fenceon the other. . .it sucks and we are freakin' stupid for buying into it. so why do you want that which you claim to hate?as a married woman with children I have been called a breeder on various women forums. and the concept that children are merely excessive consumerism run amok that they hate seeing in their daily life. this idea was put forth many times by women who thought my being married, to a man no less was pretty much the same as me tattooing slave on my forehead.I accept you for who you are. why do you want to be me? and if you want to be me why the disdain for my choices?

1) gay marriage does not "erode family" if anything, they are happyier bc that family actually wanted their child, they didnt have an accidental condom breaking baby, so they were prepared.2) if they did, that shouldnt be why you vote for it, that is in fact, the stupidest thing ive read on this page. "ooooo, vote for this bc it destroys religions!!!" how immature and stupid. are you trying to look cool or somthing? bc it didnt work.

I think the argument of sanctity of marriage is horrific.If you make yourself a loaf of bread and eat it day after day, will it taste any worse if someone else on another planet also gets to make his/her own loaf or bread and eat it?No it won't. Will the loaf you eat be any less nutritious if someone else on a remote planet also does the same?No.Ergo sanctity of marriage is nothing but jealousy of marriage in disguise. You only want marriage for yourself so you can have something that someone else doesn't.GROW UP KIDS! That kind of behaviours is criticized in kindergarten when a bully wants to have a playground ride only to himself.Not that I support marriage, I just support everyone's right to call their bond marriage. It's such a stupid trivial childish crap, but since people take is seriously, then I suppose I have to too.[edit]Hmm, I already used that argument on some other debate, except that I used beans instead of bread.
Debate: How can gay marriage hurt any one?
Side: Hurts everyone?

Not only is your logic superficial, but it completely lacks any relationship to the topic. There is nothing childish about the loss of religious freedom, or forced funding of something you find morally objectionable. You claim its jealousy of marriage, huh? They only want marriage for themselves? Actually since marriage is not a right, and even if it was they would have the same right I do to marry someone of the opposite sex, what they want is a special new right, and by giving it to them you are now forcing every religious institution to perform them and deny them of their religious freedom, which is a Constitutional right. You might want to look into the number of lawsuits against business owners currently in this country against people who exercised their rights to deny their services to a homosexual marriage, Photographers, bakeries, churches etc.http://www.reuters.com/article/2013/04/19/us-usa-gaymarriage-washington-idUSBRE93I08820130419 This issue has nothing to do with marriage rights, since it isnt a right, it has everything to do with forcing their immorality on the rest of us, and using it as a cover for more degradation of our society and our rights to choose where and when even who we do business with, more importantly, its just another cash cow for the trial lawyers to open new venues for lawsuits, and since they are the ones writing this stuff and are promoted by liberals theres is no doubt its only about money.

Sitara that is a very good point.However I think gay marriage starts to hurt when people start to ask for more rights, which is sadly happening in this world.We start asking for rights, and if its declined, we start protests, which then turn into outbreaks worthy of landing themselves in the newspaper.

What people like you don't get is that people who are legally married to a member of the same sex usually want to adopt. The child of the couple is going to be hurt mentally because it is healthy for a child to grow up in a household with one mom and one dad. The mom and the dad each contribute something to how the child acts and feels. Without either a mom or a dad the child is mentally hurt because they do not have that influence. I am not saying the child is mentally retarded, but it is much more healthy to have one mom and one dad. I sometimes will say that I support the right to marry but not to adopt.My problem with that statement, though, is that the bible makes references where it says that a marrige is to be strictly between only one man and one woman. My stance on the issue is that I am somewhere between no tolerance and some to little tolerance.

Thanks for your expert analysis. Congratulations on getting your PhD in developmental psychology by the way. Now that you are done with your speculation I will provide you with an actual study. http://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/514477 Every other study I have seen found the same results. Furthermore what about single parents? Should they be allowed to have kids or adopt? My guess is you think so. They are not getting the influence of both a mom and dad, just like you think how same-sex couples raise kids, so what's the difference?The bible should never be any justification for laws. Regardless of the fact that it is a piece of fiction, it violates the establishment clause of the first amendment of the constitution.

Yes and the boys and girls who are orphans would also rather be with a heterosexual couple as foster parents. That means one man and one woman.

Without either a mom or a dad the child is mentally hurtThis is complete bullocks. There is no evidence to support this notion. Studies have been down that show a child of a heterosexual couple is no better off than a child of a homosexual couple. Even if this were true, do you really think a child with no parents is better off than a child with two homosexual parents? Such arguments have been rendered moot, long ago. This is merely a rationalization for prejudice.

Okay, I know SEVERAL children of same-sex parents and they turn out wacko.

I don't have gay couple friends with or without kids. But I do have a lot of heterosexual friends with kids and pretty much all of them have been crewed up by their parents one way or the other. I don't like how my own parents raised us, I would rather prefer have two loving moms or dads instead.

Yep there was an adopted daughter of this dysfunctional family of "two moms" who gave a talk about this because she grew up with tons of abuse, hypocrisy and deception. She talked about how people like us should not be afraid to speak up the truth. She said the exact same thing as you nisar. Society has not benefited and will never benefit from "gay marriage" and it will never be recognized as normal. Schools need to ban heterophobia, Christophobia and truthphobia and begin to teach what's important such as the real issues in society; hypocrisy and ofc the regular courses of math, science, social studies etc. Even sex ed at the right age and puberty 101.

Why do you want to control kids in institutions to do what is harmful due to aids/hiv etc? It is lust not love. Yet you don't care about the youth? You belong in a mental institution as you are susceptible to pedophilia. The Bible is absolute and many things are already coming true. There is plenty of evidence of the Bible being true. There is zero evidence that you can change your age, gender etc. The institution of Marriage was made by God Almighty. It will remain between a biological man and a biological woman. Anything else will not be recognized.

1st off, the bible is not hte government, the two should be separate, that is the point of the constitution, if you get rid of the consitution, you kill america in one fell swoop. 2nd, when i was younger, i knew a kid with lesbians for parents. he was fine, it didnt make him gay, it didnt make him anything other than normal. he was just like all the other kids in high school. something you seem to be missing, is that ALL relationships, especially those with children, have one person who take the feminen part and one who take the masculine part. the gender doesnt actually matter, unless you plan on showing your "parts" to your child, in which case, yes, they will end up messed up bc you have mentally scarred them.
