that's why. for the last 230 years, it's been wrong...why should it change now? one good reason why?
Since man and woman started walking the Earth it's been man and woman in marriage.
not man and man, not woman and woman.
if we allow man and man, or woman and woman to get married, where does it stop?

Well, dont get me wrong, i dont see how it makes any sence. Dude on dude?... no... gross.... GIRL ON GIRL FTW! now that is just HOT!
As far as the religious aspect.... in my view the fastest way to world peace is to abolish all forms of religion. Religion just gets in the way of progress... then again, i can say that cause i dont believe in any religion, i dont think any of them are even remotely close to connecting the hammer to the nail.
Out oc curiosity, you being a god fearing christian.... yer against gay marrige because of religious views... well, in the same respect shouldnt you hate all Jews because they killed christ and do not accept him as thier lord and savior?... Should they be outlawed as well?
This entire ANTI GAY MARRIGE just seems like a complete waste of time and energy.
There are a lot of things that are right for some people and wrong for others. I just think it is kind of shitty to impose laws against somebody else from doing something they want simple cause some dusty old manuscripst from various authors that were assembled (with some left out) then translated 50 freakin times says so. I say let people do what they want. Religious imposition is one of the main reasons people use an an escuse to attack/kill/oppress another group of people.
Seems like wasted energy that could be spent towards progress...

I could take one out on my dad, or my brother, or my best friend. anyone can take a life insurance policy out on anyone so long as you consent, and if i had life insurance policy, whoever I want as the beneficiary is gonna get my stuff.

I dont think they consider that the same. People like to havre a label so people know exactly where they stand in other peoples lives. that is why women want to be married and are not content on being a girlfriend. being "Married" validates them. I guess the queer folk just want the same.
My buddy's tim's wife died of cancer about a month or two back. horribly process that cancer, but they were boyfriend/girlfriend for years and years, she always pestered him to be married, but his ex wife cheated on him so he was totally against marrige. A week before she died he married her, they had a chaplain perform the ceremony on sand that he had brought in from seattle since she wanted to be married on the beach. They family was there, they exchanged vows. However, they never signed the papers.
So at her funeral i thought it was interesting because since they were not Married in the eyes of the law, and how they were never really "engaged" they had refferred to him as the "boyfriend" which really somehow seemed to diminish his role in her life even though in her eyes the sun rose and set upon him.
Maybe that is what they really want, some type of social validation on thier standing of importance with the person they are with.
Plus there are tax breaks, stuff like that which married couples get.

lol.... ya know what is messed up? I get AETNA insurance at work. I got the best insurance package which costs me pre-tax about 190 a pay-period. This year at Benefit enrollment they have a new status for "Domestic Partner" which i assume is for gay folk. Funny thing is the same insurance package costs them 120 a pay period.
anyways... Why is gay marrige so horrible? people do things that are against the bible all the time. Why bother focusing on this one? What is so threatening about gay marrige?
And exactly what morals and ethics in america are going to go down the toilet if gays are allowed to marry eachother? It is nothing more than a title of companionship with some tax breaks. By not allowing gays to marry isnt gonna stop the homers from doing thier thing. They will do it regardless.
All this fuss over a title and a few tax breaks.
to say that it is going to sacrifice morals is absolutly absurd
