Scalia Wonders If Same-Sex Parents ‘Harmful’ To Children

At least be honest and admit you're the same way.

Umm no. He made an inane statement. I questioned his statement and asked for supporting documentation of which he has provided none. My position on this is that it's nobody's business.

You wearing a scarf with a tight sweater when you say this aren't you?

There is no picking involved. That is the origin of the modern ideas of manhood. Where does yours come from? 2012?

There's no sense in me trying to explain why I said what I just did. It would require a sense of humor.

O.K. -- you've got me hooked. Now tell me more about this little homoerotic fantasy you have involving Bori.

Give me 4 minutes to get the popcorn ready, though, k?

It's backed by a few thousand years of history going all the way to the Greeks. ;)

The Greeks did have definite opinions about gay sex, that's for sure.

:lamo Is that so?

Maybe someone wants to tell this poor lad what would have happened to him back in our day wearing such stupid crap.

False.

I've provided accurate presentation in other threads the past couple of days that validates the reality that transsexuality and homosexuality are birth defects caused by hormone-blast dysfunctions during gestation..

I think Scalia's been reading your knownothing posts on this.

I've noticed that the summaries of whatever research on same sex raised children is full of weasel words.
You really have to be careful not to accept "findings" without questioning if the researchers had set out with a pre-determined goal.
And likewise, given the overwhelmingly larger number of traditional families relative to same sex families, the sample study group needs to be either much larger or the study needs to be much longer.
I suspect that was the point of the Justices.

Regardless, adoption is a judicial process in which the best interest of the child is determined in every case. So why did Scalia ask this question, given in adoption the issue of what is in the best interest of the child is always the center of the proceeding, whoever the prospective adopting parents are?

What if it was a varsity sweater and it was tight because he's very muscular and just kicked someone's butt (and there's even blood on the sweater) ...

gotta head out for a bit at least ... have to do something very unmanly - food shopping ... go ahead .. call me girly man ...

What the hell are you talking about? People that wear that crap are always people that lack muscle mass.

Or, in more accurate other words, your "progressive" pre-conceived ideology blocks you from seeing the obvious truth of what I've posted, leaving you nothing but ridicule as a response.

Good afternoon, Jerry.

The authorities in charge since Adam and Eve left the Garden of Eden have always had rules concerning division of property.

Tell that to the person who doesn't like the state being in the marriage business. I'm all for it.
 
Harshaw said:
Dude. What quoted you as saying, and put in bold.
Click to expand...
Oh you thought I was quoting from Loving? No. I use the quote box, change the text color and font, and provide a link when I quote something. What you read was in regular text, which means those were my words, not SCOTUS's words. It's just my opinion, based on my reading of the ruling and how SCOTUS arrived at their decision. I never represented it as anything else.

The forum member What If made a random comment, I gave an opinion, you disagreed, and life went on. That's all that happened.

What happens to property on someones death that isn't married, has no children and doesn't have a will? Hint: the state does something with it. Do you know what it is? Your silly claim that it just sits there forever unsold is ignorance and worst yet shows a clear lack of ability to think that maybe it has happened millions of times over and there is certain plan put into motion when it happens. I can't believe you didn't know this. Even if there wasn't, this idea that the government needs to run marriage because current law depends on it is unbelievably bad logic.

In any event, the state takes the property in such a case. Duh..

That's the state being in the marriage business, because the state has to first confirm that there is no next of kin before it can do anything with the property.

If the state acts in good faith, and then an heir pops up, the state has to make restitution.

The obvious truth that homosexuality is a birth defect?

BWHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

You have to love the inventiveness of homophobes.
