South Carolina Supreme Court Halts Same-Sex Marriage Licenses

Didn't use the word *love.

The only thing I 'deny' is the use of the term marriage which they stole as an act spite.

Since you nor anyone else owns the word "marriage", then it is impossible for anyone to steal it.

They break the laws of their country and get punished. That's what depravity will get you in certain places.

Those countries write those laws because they believe homosexuality is BAD for their society and against their religion.

And in those countries, Christians break the laws of that country and they get punished. That's what depravity like Christianity will get you in certain places. That is using YOUR logic.

Its true no one owns it but Gays should not be allowed to change the definition.

Me? Never. Others who actually are gay? Lots, up til around this last few decades. Killed, imprisoned, castrated (both chemically and physically), raped, tortured, involuntarily committed, and prosecuted for all sorts of various "crimes" for simply being homosexual, crimes that got them put on sex offenders lists or put in jail for life, just for daring to be in a relationship with another person of the same sex. I'd call that persecution. And it has been happening for much longer, in various cultures, depending on the time, than 2000 years (not that Christians were truly being persecuted on any grand scale for that time, since they had major power in many parts of the world for a good portion of that time, to the point where people who weren't Christian were being killed and/or imprisoned or "converted" by Christians for not being Christian or believing as they did).

How can you tell if someone is gay unless they flaunt it or they hit on someone straight? Its not like a black person. A couple of times when I was on active duty and gays made advances against straights it shocked me to find out these people were gay.

Why? Because you don't like it? Too bad.

It's changed. That has already happened. Your protests to this fact and claiming "they shouldn't be able to do that" won't change anything.

They are in a relationship with someone who is of the same sex, doing things that people of the opposite sex in an intimate relationship do together in public.

You are constantly insisting that it is something that is well hidden until those deviant gays do something that is vile or against some rule. Simply isn't real life. I knew the gay guys and girls in my department and they didn't hit on anyone inappropriately, definitely not compared to the straight guys. And they didn't "flaunt" it. They simply did things (less even) that heterosexuals did, had relationships, commented on their loved ones in a way that gave away their sex/gender, said they liked the same gender (possibly in response to being hit on, or merely commented on how they found someone of the same sex attractive. Nothing wrong with that and things that straight people do all the time, only in relation to the opposite sex.

What the Hell is that supposed to mean Navy Pride?

You people have no shame when it comes to playing every sleazy Nixon card.
Read up on what the Pope just said on Gays .

They are according to the new words of the Pope.
There's only one good thing about dishonorable old men that watch FOX and Pat Robertson and then know what they think .

Oh no! Christians have been oppressed for more than two millennium! Beat that!

Please, victim card users don't like to acknowledge their victim card usage, but reality is reality.

Also...please, all sorts of various sects of Christianity enjoyed preferential treatment in many European countries. It hasn't been 2000 years of oppression. Though drama queening is a common tactic of victim card users.

I dunno about that- my wife of 28 years and I still enjoy rainbows, our marriage and it seems more than a few on the anti SSM side have willingly given up what little dignity they thought they had... :peace

Blacks are identified by their color.......Gays don't have that problem.

Most people don't fear gold.


There are plenty of people that believe in God and think that same-sex couples should be extended Civil Marriage. There are even plenty of Churches willing to provide them with Religious Marriage.

Pretty sure most people would not peg them as having to sit in the colored section (yet all would have had to technically according to most Jim Crow laws).
 
So now you double down on Blacks being identified by their color.
Do you also think the Black vote should only count as 3/5 of yours?

The Blacks I just met in my 2 and a half weeks in Vegas are well aware of their color
and how tens of millions of Americans hate them right off the bat.

Their self-control amazed me and I am a better person for knowing them .

When it comes to homosexuality the Roman Catholic Church says love the sinner but hate the sin.........Having sex outside of marriage be you straight or gay is a mortal sin in the eyes of the church.
