It won't last though. Gays are already gaining rights bit by bit, starting with Don't Ask Don't Tell being tossed out. Once there is enough public support to challenge Equal Protection, it will be granted to everyone.
Well, for me, I don't want the ability to marry a man. That's not my game.
As with others, you have a difficult time opposing SSM without referencing other things that have nothing to do with it. In other words, there's nothing you can say about SSM itself that warrants stopping it.
You're trying to change your argument. You presented the argument that SSM should be allowed 'for the sake of the children'. You need to demonstrate why no other union should be granted 'for the sake of the children'.
Your arguments are all flawed in numerous ways anyway. Incest has demonstrable and unique, fatal problems that develop with multi-generational inbreeding. There is no getting around that. Mating with someone because they are a carrier of a diseased gene that may or may not express itself is entirely different than inbreeding, in which the two sets of similar DNA themselves are the problem, as they lack diversity.
So you support banning marriage when inheritable genetic disorders are present?
The polygamy argument has been debunked numerous times but you and people like you seem deafened to evidence.
It's an integrity check on your argument, not evidence of anything. Why do you think you people keep bringing up mixed fabrics and shellfish to us?
Modern child psychology has demonstrated repeatedly...
Link or it demonstrates no such thing.
There is not really more to debate.
I'm sorry to see you leave the forum. Have a good one :2wave:
Yes you can choose to vote for or against it...
Ahh so you're retracting your argument:
I respect your culture and your upbringing, but that doesn't mean you own marriage as an institution or get to tell others that have a different culture from you that their traditions don't matter.
....and many people will make the wrong decision that isn't based on facts. The facts show that SSM is beneficial to same-sex couples with children, period. You cannot deny it.
I never did :lol:
You just think I'm anti-SSM just because I can shoot down your cookie-cutter arguments eace
