Actress Ellen Page: "I am gay"[W:1222]

BUT IT DID

And that's the point.

The arguments being made against gay marriage and the arguments once made against interracial marriage are startlingly similar and will be viewed in the same negative light as history progresses.

You can make all the excuses you want, but you cannot tell me you're for freedom, limited government and individual liberty if you think the banning of gay marriage is a legitimate use of governments authority.

similar but not equal. Marriage is common law defined as a union between a man and a woman. Race isn't a factor.

Look, if you're ok with bestiality, that's your business. People are ok with different things and I'm not judging you. I'm sure you have your reasons for supporting bestiality in private settings. I cannot imagine what they are, and I don't want to know, but your support of such is noted.

Any suicide is bad. Gay or straight. That's the whole point to you complaining "all the other problems facing this country" paraphrasing.

You brought suicide into the gay issue now you want to dig your hole deeper?
 
re: Actress Ellen Page: "I am gay"[W:1222]

What I don't get is why all this hoopla over coming out and having this need to tell everyone you are gay? If it is normal for you then what in Sam Hill makes it necessary for the confession?

If you are ok with denying someone else their rights then I guess that makes you a hypocrite

Probably because you haven't lived as a gay person in a society that treats them like second-class citizens and sometimes beats them to death for being who they are. Or just beats and harasses them as teenagers until they commit suicide, which is the same thing, really.

People have the right to have sex with animals, as long as it is in private? I don't think so. You claim to feel that way and that's fine, but don't expect me to agree. I'm against bestiality. But, again, I'm not judging you.

Why not? You don't seem to care about the laws on issues important to you, marriage in most states is between a man and a woman. Others disagree including those who have sex with animals. Seems to me you are a hypocrite where your opinions and desires trump those of others.

I understand if you think I'm a hypocrite. That's ok. I'm still against bestiality. You are free to continue to support it.

So am I just like I am against gay marriage. I believe in marriage being between a man and a woman which is supported by history. Some don't. You want your beliefs and opinions honored but not others who want other changes to the term marriage. Where does it stop?

No, we are not. Bestiality is animal rape, as legally animals can not give consent, nor can kids. Consensual marriage between adults is nothing like rape. If you don't like the law, change it.
