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

stereotyping helps produce statistics. A statistic of approx 45% of all married couples divorcing someday, is a statistic based on a stereotype. In 2005, 57% of illegal immigrants in the US, are from Mexico, is therefore a statistic and a stereotype that at least half of illegal immigrants are Mexicans.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

No. Facts produce statistics.A statistic of approximately 45% of all married couples divorcing someday, would be based on already existing facts about divorce rates, not speculation. Stereotypes are based on opinions, random observations, and speculation.With statistics, there is control and reason, as well as numerical data.Stereotypes are just words.

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

yup,gays should have the right to marry becoz they are attracted to each other...and if they are in true love then they should proceed..and it will also help to decrease the population...........................................
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

Legally speaking, all couples should be allowed to marry. All couples should have the legal benefits of marriage. Whether another persons religion or belief wants to call it marriage or not let that be. But for legal terms, all couples heterosexual or homosexual, should have the right to marriage.One last thought, what is so morally wrong with same sex marriage?
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: Hell Yeah Bitch

As a law, not in association with any religious organization, ALL COUPLES should have the right of marriage. It does not have to be in YOUR CHURCH/ SYNAGOGUE/ MOSQUE/ WHATEVER. What we are talking about here is not a religious or moral debate, this is a LEGAL debate. CHURCH is SEPARATE FROM STATE!!!!! You shouldn't deny a homosexual couple that is in love the LEGAL RIGHTS of a heterosexual couple that is in love. You can't say to a judge in the supreme court that the reason why homosexuals shouldn't have the right to marry in legal terms is because the bible says it is a sin. You'd be told to read the first amendment.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

As a matter of legality, they should be allowed the same rights and priveliges that married couples are allowed.However, if a church refuses to marry two people of the same gender, that is their own decision. The right to be married applies only to the legal recognition of the couple having the same legal status as a "Married" couple.Telling the church they can't reject homosexuality is oppressive. I'm all for gay marriage, but I'm even more against making people do what they don't want to do.

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

Ok say you are a straight guy and you find you a nice wife and you guys live happy. Okay with gay people it is exactly the same except for it's the same sex. It doesnt matter what sex you are if you are happy you are happy and nobody should have the right to take that away! If two gay people want to finnally tie the knot then it shouldn't be a problem because they are very happy with one another just how straight guys would be with their wives! they should have a right to marry because it's their life that they are living and they should live it how ever they want to live it..... i think we should all accept that we have gays everywhere and killing their happiness so that we can be happy is so wrong...
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

Give me one reason i can't get married to my boyfriend of two years?Because we are the same sex? What does that have to do with anything?This shouldn't even be a question. This country sucks when it comes to this.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

anyone should have the right to marry no matter what. there is nothing in the constitution stating it is wrong it is more of a religious belief. If you believe that they shouldnt you should keep it to yourself. everyone is equal and should be treated the same. how would you like it if it was the other way around and straight people couldnt marry other straight people
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

it does not hurt anybody if they do get married. it does not affect me. there is no reason for them not be be married. if your reason is about religion, then it really depends what religion you are talking about. most people who are against gays are Christians, but then it depends on the church. i know that some churches allow gay marriage such as the united church of Christ or the Quaker group. even if they didn't, gays could still get married in a court by a judge, in that case nobody would be hurt.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

OF COURSE GAYS SHOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO MARRY!!!!When its love, it has no limits, right? They shouldn't be discriminated against over something so personal. Its their life and people shouldn't interfere with a persons right to privacy and decision no matter whether or not they're the same sex. And to tell you the truth its not their fault being gay, their born with it. It a mental thing. Their normal people! I don't get how people can say otherwise.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

Going by the history and the need for marriage from the days of the caveman and before, I would think that the institution of marriage is meant more as a protection for the children that result from the instinctive act of sex. Civilized society would have decided long ago, that there was a need to protect the offspring and therefore sanctified marriage through religion etc., The importance of marriage is therefore for the protection of all children and to provide for them through the responsibility attached to the marrying couples in exchange for the previlige of having their own children. There are legal rights attached to children and the heterosexual marrying couples such as succession of property etc., Obviously a marriage of gays is meaningless in this context, and serves no purpose and also has no liability on the society at large. If they want to co habitate for their mutual pleasure, then they are just in the same position as a heterosexual couple who dont have any children - either by their own choice or by happenstance.So, let them get married if they want to, it has no harmful consequence on any one.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

ya. The onlything that should matter in marriage is love. if you can prove you love him or her than you should be aloud to marry (family or relivtives don't count, i doubt many people out there would support that, not even rednecks)
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

yes! you rock gay people. they are no different than we are. if to men want to marry each other, go for it
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

I believe people have two fundamental rights relating to this issue:The right to self expression and personal views/ideas.The right to be secure physically and emotionally.If someone gets married -gay or straight-, they are expression their personal ideas. This is their RIGHT in Canada and the United States, at the very least. Marriage is a legal thing between two people, and the only part of it that says it has to be man and a woman lies in religion- which is based on ideas founded centuries ago when women were considered objects anyway, and thus fundamentally flawed and not viable as the final word.If you are telling them that they are not allowed to get married, you are first of all denying them their right to express their ideas by saying it's not allowed, and secondly denying them their emotional security because you're descriminating.FINALLY. What does it matter to you if a gay couple gets married? Is it hurting you? No. Is it denying you the ability to say you don't like it? No. Is it infringing on those two rights for you? No. You can disagree with it, but that doesn't mean you should have the right to say it's not allowed at all!There's no logical reason to say it isn't allowed.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

People should be allowed to marry whoever they want (age permitting, of course). They should also be allowed to fight and die for their country.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

Live and let live. They arent doing anything to harm you. Just let them be. Since the opposition is religious, it would actually be un-american to deny them marriage. It says in the constitution that people don't have to be christian and you can't make laws based on religion.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

The ability of any two consenting adults to enter into a legal contract is a constitutional right. Marriage is a legal contract. If you believe homosexuality is wrong for religious reasons, remember this is not about homosexual acts, it is about homosexual marriage. Homosexual acts are legal. Nor can you use your religious beliefs to deprive others of their rights.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

Homosexuals are still people. They can love just like anyone else.Love is love, and that's that.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

yes they can. why not?! IF they really happy to be together lit it be that way... you can not make a person fell in love or make a person stop loving... Everyone has their right of love.... YOU CAN NOT CONTROL YOUR HEART!!!
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: NO!!!

Why not? Who are they hurting by getting married? Nobody.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

Gay should have the right to Mar, however they shouldn't use the term married, in fact only people who were married through the church should use that terminology. The church came u p with the term of marriage and if a vast majority says it goes against their religion then they should be allowed to marry through the church, I myself Am agnostic, but I believe all religions should be respected in some way, and if the church says no to gay marriage then I'm sorry but you cannot be wed that way.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: No!!!

I'm not for the no but what you said is wrong Migs. Marriage was invented by farmers thousands of years ago. They would basically sell their daughters off for cattle and money. It became a religious practice later on. It definately did NOT begin in any judeo Christian religion. Also, the term 'marriage' doesnt only apply to those wed in the religious way. You can also get married in a courtroom before a judge at your town hall and it's a completely legal legitimate marriage in every meaning of the word. That being said, no religion should have ANY say over who can and can't be married by LAW. I bring up the constitution- separation of church and state. No religion shall have any powers of government nor affect the decisions of lawmakers. And I've said this before, not allowing gay marriage is discrimination which is illegal. It is denying one group of individuals the same rights as others. A specific church can deny performing the ceremony but by LAW it should be allowed through state or any church that will do the ceremony.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

yes gays should have the right to marry because their human as well just because they are gay the government have no write to interfere in their personal life even if they are gay or not!
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

Absolutely! There should be no restrictions on Same-Sex Marriage on the whole planet.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

It is now 2015 and the Supreme Court has declared Gay Marriage to be the law of the land.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

When it comes to the law I don't think there is anything against gay marriage. What you think is up to you, but I feel like since it doesn't hurt anybody, then people should be able to love who they want to.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

Well, they actually do have the right to get married.I think a better wording would be "Should people have the right to marry someone of the same sex".
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

Okay so when interracial marriage was illegal would you have said "It's alright because anyone does have the right to get married [just not to whom they want]"?
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

I bet he says he would have.He needs the attention just that much.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

He will probably say interracial marriage and same-sex marriage are completely different even though they are quite similar.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

Maybe... but I think he likes to offend, because he doesn't have anything better to add to a debate.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

I wouldn't put it past him. I kind of feel bad for him though. His worldview seems awfully depressing.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

No, i was merely criticizing the set up of the question. Gays do have the right to marry.Damn... is it just because you and Pineapple have a problem with me? Cause this is absurd.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: NO!!!

You did not answer my question. If everything is peachy because gays have the right to marry, then doesn't that same logic apply to interracial marriage?
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

I wasn't saying that gay marriage was bad in the first place... I was saying that the question isn't the question that should be asked. To relate it to you interracial question, it would be like asking "Should blacks have the right to marry?"
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

You knew exactly what the debate meant by "Should gays have the right to get marry?" Instead you took the pedantic route and contributed nothing to the debate.And my reference to interracial marriage was saying that if you think it is okay to have same-sex marriage be illegal because gays still have a right to get married than you should be okay with interracial marriage being illegal.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

I knew what the debate meant, but since this debate has been brought up about a thousand times, I should do something different. So I instead pointed out how the title is misleading and is missing the point of the whole gay marriage debate.If anything, i've contributed even more by saying something different than from the usual routine. and as I pointed out, if this were an interracial issue, the title would have been "should blacks have the right to marry?" which would have also been misleading.Don't see why everyone has to make such a big deal out of this. Too much tension on this site sometimes... everything always has to be taken offensively. I support gay marriage, if that's the issue here.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

Yeah, the like to double team me too. Gets annoying. They should just get a room and leave everyone els alone. (;
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

That is implied. Please learn yourself on a subject before making stupid and disrupting comments.You're not Joe.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

How do you debate a topic that has a different meaning from what is implied?What we're technically supposed to talk about here is "should gays have the right to marry?" but I know no one wants to talk about that, since that isn't the hot button issue.Joe would have made a comment that made no sense or would have joked around. While I joke around, this post was not a joke and made perfect sense.It's sad that people criticize it.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

It's sad that you're arguing it.Please tell me that most of the dipshit comments you've made were jokes. Because I'd like you to know, you can't hear sarcasm over the internet.You may want to be an ass, and it may make you giggle, but it's not funny.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

What I stated was completely legitimate and I find it mainly unfair that you would just attack me like this.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?
Side: yes

Omg! Are you gonna cry? It's my dream to make you cry!No, it wasn't legitimate. You knew what the real meaning of the question was, and by picking at you were just being stupid to get your own jollies off.
Debate: Should gays have the right to marry?

Yes. I don't agree with it but they should have the right to. If they don't it could cause big trouble and say we are racist or something (which we're not) But, they should have the right to marry. The poore people don't know any better. =(

Debate: Should gay marriages be allowable?
Side: yes

Yes. The genitalia between your legs shouldn't dictate with whom you can spend the rest of your life.
Debate: Should gay marriages be allowable?
Side: yes

What exactly is love? Do you have a pet? If your pet was in the "Vet" and you couldn't visit them, give them friendship and comfort them in there time of need, then would you do anything you can so you could? If two people love each other, then "The genitalia between"there"...legs shouldn't dictate with whom..."they" can spend the rest of there life..." with.
Debate: Should gay marriages be allowable?
Side: No

Is this an emotional response or a logical response? Laws ought to be based on logic, and there is no logical reason to engage in homosexual behavior.
Debate: Should gay marriages be allowable?
Side: yes

There is no logical reason to engage in homosexual behavior? LMFAO! Are you serious? Here you go Leave It To Beaver:
Debate: Should gay marriages be allowable?
Side: No

Yes. I am being serious that there is no logical reason to engage in homosexuality. And I do so loathe it when people respond in youtube videos. Write your own argument.
Debate: Should gay marriages be allowable?
Side: yes

And I loathe stupidity. There is a logical reason to engage in homosexual behavior...it's natural. It doesn't detrimentally affect society, and it does not infringe on another's right to self-determination. Logic would dictate laws that preventing same sex couples from marriage while allowing heterosexual couples to marry is fundamentally unfair and antiquated.
Debate: Should gay marriages be allowable?
Side: No

I loathe people who think that their version of logic is the proper one - but enough of these insults.There is one logical reason to engage in intercourse. Procreation. Homosexuality cannot result in impregnation and thus there is no logical reason to engage in homosexual behavior."Because we can..." is not a logical answer. We can do a great many things, but that doesn't mean that there is a logical reason to do so.
Debate: Should gay marriages be allowable?
Side: yes

Obviously there is a logical reason for it occur, if it occurs naturally through nature. There is no logical reason to paint pictures, there is no logical reason to dance, there is no logical reason to enjoy sex. We do these things, because it gives us pleasure. Pleasure is natural and logical. You know what else is pleasurable and natural? Human rights. You know what is logical and rational for a society to do, to uphold human rights. You argument is myopic tunnel vision.
Debate: Should gay marriages be allowable?
Side: No

Prove that homosexuality is natural.There is no logical reason to pain pictures - in a way, there is. It shows future generations what the world looks (or rather, looked) like, primarily before the advent of the camera.Hedonism is not logical. Pleasure is illogical. Enjoyment is illogical.How are 'human rights' pleasurable?
Debate: Should gay marriages be allowable?
Side: yes

Prove that homosexuality is natural.Scientific observation. Watch the video.There is no logical reason to pain pictures - in a way, there is. It shows future generations what the world looks (or rather, looked) like, primarily before the advent of the camera.Yet you dodge "dancing."Pleasure is illogical. Enjoyment is illogical.Then happiness, anger, sadness, etc... are all illogical as well. It would be logical for someone to do something that is pleasurable become it makes them happy. If you think happniess is "illogical," then I would have to question your sanity. The only people I'm aware of that find emotions "illogical" are psychopaths.How are human rights pleasurable?Hmmm...talk to a Holocaust survivor or a minority during the 1960s. They might be able to give you a reason why having human rights is pleasurable.
Debate: Should gay marriages be allowable?
Side: No

Yet you dodge "dancing."I do not dance. There is no logical purpose to dance.Then happiness, anger, sadness, etc... are all illogical as well.Of course. That is why I have spent years ridding myself of emotion - indeed, ever since I was a young child.It would be logical for someone to do something that is pleasurable become it makes them happy. Happiness is both overrated and illogical.The only people I'm aware of that find emotions "illogical" are psychopaths.I've long thought myself to belong to that 'persuasion', though aveskde disagrees.They might be able to give you a reason why having human rights is pleasurable.Ahh, so you are one of those humanoids who believes that humans actually deserve rights. What about animals?Rights are overrated.
