If there's no DOMA there's no federal right for gay marriage.

No DOMA means that the federal government will recognize marriages of same sex couples in those 12 states that have legalized it already and it means that there is another way to contest state laws, under the Full Faith and Credit Clause of the 14th.

not true if marriage is a right and its determined that not allowing SSM is discrimination and unequal rights
 
I strive not to, I never argued that I have never sinned.

You are choosing to argue against SSM by doing so you are choosing to sin. If you wish to stop sinning then stop arguing against SSM.
 
If you mean that Government gets out of marriage entirely, changes marriage to a civil union of secular contract between two consenting adult parties (that it currently is but masquerades under the term marriage) and the state and lets NGOs handle the concept of "marriage" I'm totally there with you.

Otherwise, I have to disagree.

Churches are welcome to their own "concept" of marriage, I'm not sure they hold a patent on the name though. I think it would have expired long ago.
 
God made humans with freedom of choice. They chose sin.

Speak for yourself. I had a mother and father who made me and they taught me that hatred and discrimination is wrong. What did God teach you?

How is arguing against SSM sin again?
 
The Bible was written by God Himself. So it is not according to my beliefs. The fact is that it doesn't matter if you believe it or not, it is true, and you will give an account on judgement day.

Here we have a variation of the old "it's true because I say its true".
Like I said a few post back,it's about "power and control".

No to give offense,but just because you have beliefs does not mean that anyone here is required to accept them,believe them,do whatever you tell them to do,or pucker up and kiss your behind.You say it is true,then you should have no problem presenting evidence that that is the case.

No, I can't make them. However, if they are wrong, they have grave consequences, if I am wrong, then I look like a fool. However, I'm not wrong.

Because you want people to accept your beliefs without question,without you having to provide any proof what so ever when asked.
That is vanity.
I believe it is a sin according to Abrahamic Monotheism.
It's the sin that got a certain Arch-Angel and his followers kicked down to the basement by the Supreme,according to Abrahamic Monotheism.
If you have then right to point out other people's sins,people have the right to point out your own.

Then you should have no problem proving that then.

Except you pointed out something that frustrates you. Not a sin. SSM is a sin according to the God of Abraham, the one and only true God. Therefore, by arguing against that, how can that be a sin?

1. It goes against the golden rule
2. You are taking the Lords name in vain by ascribing a position to God that is untrue (Homosexuality being a sin in your mind)
3. You wrongly assume that your belief is more valid than mine, this is known as hubris.

Not taking the Lord's name in vain since He himself said it is an abomination to him. And it does not go against the golden rule.

You can't "make them" because you don't have the "power and control" to do so.
If you had that power,for all anyone here knows that is exactly what you might do.
None of us know you like that,so please understand if any assurances that you wouldn't are meaningless.
