Maryland Gay Marriage Bill sent back to cmte. Shelved for this year at least.

Why is it that liberals want to make the abnormal normal?

Abnormal...normal...Pray do tell what you mean. Surely you don't intend to deny that there are over 1500 species on this planet that practice homosexuality? Surely you don't intend to deny a person the right to marriage just because you dislike it? Oh wait...want to go the genetic route? Ok, show me the DNA which says you're a heterosexual. Oh wait? Or are you just saying that it is a "choice" to be a homosexual? When did you "CHOOSE" to be heterosexual? And even if it is JUST a choice, that does not discount thier RIGHT to that choice.

Come, tell us, why is it that you think that homosexuality is "abnormal".
 


Dear Maryland House of Representatives;

Congratulations! Just when we thought you were an enlightened and rather intelligent governing entity, you go ahead and prove us wrong by defeating the gay marriage effort. You imbeciles in the legislature who voted "no" to marriage equality should check your birth certificates, because i'm sure they are apologies from the condom factory. Evolution says that we all sprang from brainless worms. You all obviously didn't spring far enough.
 
Well, I'd like to see it pass since there is a governor willing to sign it. Guess we'll wait and see what happens.

Yeah, especially since it got passed by a full senate? (according to the article in the OP).
Hopefully we'll see it pass soon.

I wish you were kidding me, but sadly your not. You belive its normal to have man on man relations? Same sex marriages? I don't.

Umm...Duh. I'm pretty sure that I got that you don't from your first post. Care to answer my question now?
 
This is sad. Hopefully they will get this done and be able to stand up as one of the states that granted fair marriage treatment to all, regardless of race or sex, before the country is made to do so by the SCOTUS.

interracial marriage wasn't all that "normal" a few decades ago. It's considered "normal" (as in socially acceptable) now. Times change bro.

Why should anyone have a problem with any state making any kind of law that it wants? Its a simple concept...laws do not make people moral or immoral, laws simply reflect the morality of those who write them. Moral people write moral laws, immoral people write immoral laws. Does any other state have a problem with Nevada making PROSTITUTION LEGAL? Big Deal...if the people of Nevada want to be immoral that is up to the people of Nevada. The Same for any state that wants Homosexual Marriage...that is strictly up to the people of any state...If they want to go Brokeback Mountain....more power to them. But don't even attempt to tell me that every state in the union has to make prostitution legal because the people of Nevada have no moral fiber and worship the dollar more than they do righteousness. We live in a society where people are free to be perverts if they wish...as long as that perversion is not attempted to infringe upon another citizens right to be Free from the act of Perversion.

God bless the USA were the battle lines can be vividly clear. We the People have more pressing problems than to have any concern about who sticks what, where. But if anyone wants Absolution for a free will choice.....GO SEE A PRIEST. Its very clear...round pegs do not go into square holes. Just like morality....the laws of physics and logic are not subject to legislation. Big Brother simply needs to get the hell out of the way....they have already denied the people of Utah the right to pursue their happiness by having more than ONE spouse..what's next? Do some people believe they can legislate CRIME away simply because they make some acts legal or illegal? If such was the case there would be ZERO crime. Simply put....the only person that you can have an effect on in relation to morality is SELF. I have more than enough problems with the beams in my eyes to have any concern about the gnat in someone else's eye....Salvation is hard enough to work out for yourself with fear and trembling, Its not my problem if some people are to stupid to be afraid, they have their own quicksand to navigate.

There is no such thing as the "right to be free from the act of perversion", unless you mean that you have a right not to participate in such acts. You do not have the right to restrict others from entering into contracts that you are allowed to enter into just because you do not approve of their relationships because you believe that they are acts of perversion. This was essentially established with the ruling in Loving v. VA. The only difference between anti-interracial marriage laws and anti-SSM laws is one had to do with the race of the two individuals involved, and the other deals with the sex of the two individuals involved. Interracial marriage was (and still is by around 15-20% of the US population) considered to be as much an act of perversion as homosexuality.

The fact is that laws should be made to keep people from infringing upon the actual rights of other people, not those rights that some wish/think they have.

I beg to differ. I have a room full of advocates that tell me under the 2nd amendment...I have the right to be free from perversion, if you do not believe that simply test me. As I said...as far as I can go is into the sphere of privacy that all US CITIZENS are guaranteed..if you infringe upon that space it will the last space that you infringe upon.

How does two guys/gals getting married 500 miles away from you affect your privacy?

BTW, the 2nd Amendment is not about perversion. No matter what your personal room of advocates states. The second amendment is about protection from bodily harm, food (hunting), and protection from government. None of that is about "perversion".

Also, for future reference I would watch how you phrase things as your post sounds an aweful lot like a threat.

Who said that it does, except you in attempting to establish a false premise and project YOUR morality upon ME in spite of the fact that Congress is forbidden from ESTABLISHING morality...religion. You said that I do not have the right to be free from perversion when its very clear that I possess the right of FREE EXERCISE, not to mention my 2nd amendment rights when the STATE fails to secure any guaranteed right. Keep your perversion to yourself. If you want to openly practice your perversion, go to a perverted STATE...while I will freely choose to stay in one the over 40 states that have made Homosexual Marriage...ILLEGAL, with the majority thereof, amending their constitutions to meet the will of the people who populate that state. As I said...the battle lines are drawn vividly clear and the MINORITY can never hope to establish the NORM.

You said it does when you tried to claim privacy rights in regards to homosexual marriage (what this thread is about).

Morality does not equal religion. There are lots of athiests that have just as much morality as anyone in any religion. And every law is based on some type of morality. The fact is that Congress is forbidden from establishing a religion or establishing law for/against any type of religion...NOT forbidden from basing law on morality.

And no, I did not say that you do not have the right to be free from perversion. That was another poster. And yes you do have the right of free exercise, so long as that free exercise does not intrude upon anothers Rights.

Also, your whole post is contradictory. You state that I am trying to force my morality upon you, and yet you want to force your morality upon me. Sorry, but you can't have your cake and eat it too. Pick one and stick with it.

So, in your opinion, taking away a personal liberty is ok as long as that particular liberty is not something the majority approves of or is not part of some vague concept of a "norm?" Funny how selective you guys get sometimes when it comes to freedom.

By the way, you're in the minority now. The minority who thinks same-sex marriage should be illegal. You also still haven't explained how two dudes getting married even affects you at all, let alone harms you somehow.

It doesn't, he just thinks it's icky, no logical foundation to his reasoning, he just thinks that we're icky.

Wake up. Its liberals that are imposing their inmorality on us. Liberals are OK with taking God out of the class room, teaching kids how to put a condom on cumcumber and having us think that homosexuality is a normal life style. I don't. Marriage is bewteen a man and a women.

Well in that case, having pet tarantulas should be illegal.

Apart from homosexuality, how are any of those other things immoral?
