YAY!!!!
First!
And YAY again!
No, FAIL. Marriage is ONE MAN, ONE WOMAN. No amount of man’s redefining and repackaging can change what God created. His truth never changes, and the definition of marriage can never change. People need to stand for REAL marriage and stop trying to normalize perverted, unnatural lifestyles. In the end, it’s only God’s standards and God’s truth that will matter. Yes, there were polygamous relationships in the Bible, but that was also a deviation from the original plan.
And the gay activists need to go look in the mirror. Try looking up the videos of how they react to peaceful protestors. That is NOT tolerance. It’s hate, plain and simple. Christian witness is done out of love, and we do not hate anyone. But the gay activists do. Tolerance should go both ways.
this has to be one of the most ignorant posts i’ve read on this site. if you don’t believe that men should marry men or women should marry women, no one is forcing you to. but who are you (and who is the government) to say that two people of the same sex that love one another cannot have the same legal rights as two people that love one another and are of opposite sexes?
if god were so opposed to gays, then why did he create them that way? and before anyone tells me that it is a choice i must point out that there has been documented cases of homosexuality in numerous animals that do not have the brain power and necessary thought patterns to “choose” to engage in sexual acts with the same sex. they follow their instincts and nothing more. additionally, if humans “choose” to be homosexual, many of them must be masochists because i know i wouldn’t willingly subject myself to ignorant people telling me how “wrong” i am.
you don’t believe in gay marriage? fine, i have no right to tell you what to believe but you have no right to tell people what they should believe either.
legal rights are different than a religious ceremony and a definition. If marriage wasnt essentially a piece of paper given to people with a passing fancy for each other after knowing each other for 5 minutes then marriage would mean more to the heterosexuals. If all gays want (which it isnt but lets play pretend for a minute) is the same legal rights as married couples we can have a contract written up to say that they can be considered joined for tax purposes and purposes of power of attorney… Doesnt make it marriage but its something equal to marriage from a legal definition. But they want to get MARRIED… why? because it pisses off people who disagree with their lifestyle. They arent interested in legal rights they just want to poke their thumb (or some other appendage) in the eye of the people that disagree with them.
I know a few gay couples that got married because they loved each other, they didn’t do it to piss people off. I mean I don’t see how you can piss off a whole lot of people who don’t like it unless you’re on the news or something. It’s not like they went around shouting in the streets that they were gay and getting married. Sure, you could draw up contracts and legal documents and some actual do go through that. But there are certain things that you can’t get unless you are actually married to some one.
You are so self centered.
Nobody is getting married to piss you off. I want the same options in life as you, and it’s not about you, it’s about me. That you like it, dislike it, or don’t care about it is none of my business.
And you don’t get to disagree with my lifestyle. It’s none of your business
I think there’s something wrong with you if you believe that ANYONE is basing their life choices on you.
I got married because I wanted to be able to say “This is the person I love, and I married him.”
THE END.
HAZAH!!!!
Look who’s talking about tolerance…
“Look, just because you have to tolerate something doesn’t mean you have to approve of it! If you had to like it, it’d be called the Museum of Acceptance! [the audience looks on] “Tolerate” means you’re just putting up with it! You tolerate a crying child sitting next to you on the airplane or, or you tolerate a bad cold. It can still piss you off! Jesus Tapdancing Christ!” – Mr Garrison from south park episode “the death camp of tolerance
How do you know? I mean for sure. Were you there? Cause it’s not like imperfect man wasnt writing down the stories in the bible and putting his inflection on it. That’s right stories as in not real. By the way, if you’d look into actual Christian history, you’d know when things like the devil and homosexuality were placed in the good book.
Yes but not in a good way – please read it before you comment…
David and Jonathan. Maybe Ruth and Naomi, but that one’s more ambiguous.
Before you go there, Granny, the crime of Sodom was that they were really crappy hosts with really poor impulse control, not that they were homosexual. I mean, really? How does getting smited for trying to rape your guests equate to homosexuality?
And no one listens to Leviticus anymore, so don’t start that.
Yes. I have read it.
Yeah! It’s not homosexuality if you’re trying to r*pe your neighbor’s guest…unless they happen to be 2 angels in the form of men and you happen to be a man.
Rape is about dominance and power, not sexuality.
So what ou’re saying is, that if one man forces another man to have intercourse with him, there’s no homosexuality involved? Yeah, see the flaw in that theory is, you have to be sexually arroused to get and maintain an errection. Sort of hard (no pun intended) to rape someone with a soft penis.
The flaw in your thinking is that you’re still thinking that you have to be attracted to a person have sex with them. What you have to understand is that r*pe and sex are different. Some people are aroused by domination and humiliation. (Fine when it’s consensual but that’s a WHOLE different discussion.) I’m not saying that no one is ever attracted to the person that they are forcing into sex but let’s take a look at some particular disturbing realities. There have been groups of straight men that have viciously and violently r*ped homosexual men as a form of a hate crime. There was a man who broke into a woman’s home and violated her, she was over 70 years old and this man had never been particularly attracted to any member of the geriatric community before. You also have to realize that you can sexually assault some one without the aid of the male genitalia.
A hate filled narrow minded ignorant rant that ends with…
“Tolerance should go both ways.”
I LOL’d.
Right? Pfft!
but what your narrow minded opinionated reply demonstrates is that you arent tolerant of people who dont like gay marriage… If he was advocating the murder of all homosexuals that would be different. He’s just saying dont give them special treatment and an exception to the rules that say marriage is x unless you dont believe in x then its whatever you want marriage to be.
You dont sound very tolerant now do you?
He didn’t say anything about him being tolerant…
he pointed out the double standard, two faced ignorance wherein they said one thing, and then pulled something completely different out of their ass.
Gay’s don’t want “special treatment”, they just want frickin treatment. Equality. Being equal with breeders is “Special”? No. It’s being equal. “Special” would be free cake for being gay every day.
You moronic bigots make me ill. Don’t like gay marriage? Don’t get married to someone of the same sex. Simple.
I don’t get this “special treatment” argument. Straight people have been getting a special treatment for ever with mariage being a special contract only between two people of opposin sexes. Special treatment has been extended to two people of same sex. It’s thus now less “special” (although still excluding groups of more than two, and thus still “special”)
Do we have to remind you that the US is a FREE land. people can do what ever the f**k they want.
P.S. god isn’t real, its a fairy tale

Hypocrite. I feel sorry for you.
God’s truth never changes, huh? You want to rethink that statement before I start throwing Leviticus at you?
leviticus 19:10 made me turn away from god.
Um, if you read more than 19:10, like the WHOLE chapter, you’ll see that God is instructing us to not be greedy with our worldly posessions. How did that turn you away from Him?
Maybe it was the ‘no sleeping with twins’ bit. But some passages for your entertainment.
Ye shall not round the corners of your heads, neither shalt thou mar the corners of thy beard. – Leviticus 19:27 Hope you didn’t shave this morning. Or ever.
Leviticus 13-14 teaches how to deal with leprosy. It ain’t pretty. Hope you lock anyone with gangrene up for a week, waiting for them to get better. Protip: They won’t, they’ll die.
Then there’s Leviticus 15 for menstruating women. How many turtledoves and pigeons did your mum go through before she hit menopause?
Gee, everything you mentioned appears to be grooming standards and health codes fore a small close knit community hundreds of years before any serious leaps sanitation were made. Isolate someone with sores…yeah, you don’t want them spreading to the rest of the community. A man with a seminal discharge needs to scrub his grubby butt…makes sense. A woman on her period, in the days before maxi-pads, needed to be considerate of others and watch where she sat…how dare we say she can’t just bleed where she wants to.
I appologize foy my poor typing and spelling. I had to switch over to my touch screen keyboard due to battery issues. I’m not used to using it.
If you would peacefully mind your own business gays wouldn’t have a reason to be “intolerant.”
that’s just an ironic statement right there.
No it’s not “ironic”. Do you even know irony? Other than what your toothless wife hits you over the head with nightly as she pops out babies the government has to take care of?
If your “peaceful” religion would mind it’s own damn business and let gays live their life as designed by God, there wouldn’t be a reason to not tolerate your blissful, self imposed ignorance.
“In the end, it’s only God’s standards and God’s truth that will matter.”
So.. STFU?
Ohh, but your great love compells you to tell other people how disgusting, unnatural, deserving of eternal pain and suffering you think they are.
Out of love, can I tell you how much I wish a nuclear warhead would come shooting out of some deep underground silo, right into your self-contradictory “I don’t believe in equal rights I believe in special privileges” ass and take you on an express flight to the heaven you’re trying so hard to bully everyone else into? I mean, I’m saying this out of love.. you can’t get mad or accuse me of being intolerant if I have that particular qualifier, right?
Aaaaaaand……. WIN
I’m pretty sure marriage existed well before your God. Even if God created the world a couple of thousands of years ago (which I don’t believe at all) there was still no christianity/judaism/islam at that point in time, and marriage exsisted then. Also, what about marriage for those who don’t believe in God? Is their marriage a fake? Is it not to be seen as something legal and real?
In other words, STFU.
Love, a pansexual transexual.
you confuse a religion with a god so your statement failed in its first sentence. Please go back to school before posting again.
Oooh, burn. I feel so stupid now. I guess you’re just the be-all and end-all of religious/philosophical ideas.
Nice try though.
Alright, try this one on then. I’m Buddhist, and have no relationship at all with the Judeo-Christian God or any of his religions. I’m United States citizen. What business does that god have telling me who I can and cannot legally marry under the laws of my government?
See, there it is, the laws of the government. Marriage it self does not have to be defined under the laws of God. This country wanted to keep church and state separate but they never seem to do that. There are so many things in this country that contradict that. If gay marriage is legal, no one is going to force any church or any person to marry two people of the same sex if they don’t want to or that doesn’t believe that gay people should get married.
On a side note, if gay marriage is legal, they aren’t going to teach anything about homosexuality in any elementary school or anything like that. That’s the main reason why prop 8 passed, there were a lot of people who didn’t really care if homosexuals got married but they didn’t want their children taught about gays in school.
So let me get this straight…If I refuse to believe in God, then I can do what ever makes me feel good? And the rest of society is expected to except it because if they don’t, then they’re stomping on MY beliefs? Wow, where can I sign up for the amoral liberal left wing communist party? I want to be a liberal storm trooper who helps to destroy the traditional fabric of American society. What was I thinking sacrificing 12+yrs in the Army so gays could openly poke each other in the backdoor. How could I have been so misguided.
Can’t tell if trolling or just very stupid
I think he was being sarcastic….
You are a moron.
Who says that gays and lesbians are atheists? Most gays and lesbians I know attend church and believe in God. They believe taht God made them gay and lesbian, so it must be OK because God does not make mistakes. BTW – Unless you are married in a church you are not married in the eyes of God. City hall does not count.
So, according to you, my parents were never married in the eye’s of the Lord? Sorry, gonna havta disagree with you there. And what if you get married outside? Does an outdoor wedding not count as well? My friends were married in the cabin type place that they rented for the reception, are they not married in the eyes of God because it wasn’t a church, What about people that have there weddings at their homes? A church is just a building.
I’m not saying that homosexuality should be illegal. What 2 concenting adults do behind closed doors is their business. It’s when you start to bring it into a public venue and expose others to it (i.e. little children) that it becomes in issue. They want to poke each other in the butt? Fine, but don’t make a public spectacle over it, and don’t expect others to support it, or get pissy when they don’t support your choices.
I don’t know many homosexuals that “poke each other in the butt” in the general public venues. And heterosexuals do their fair share amount of butt poking and poking various other orifices themselves.
Yes, but no matter what, most people are uncomfortable with homosexuality. Therefore reminding them of it with PDA would only hinder acceptance of homosexuals. Therefore, unitl the Zeitgeist becomes more tolerant, this will be the predominant view.
The only “public spectacle” being made is when people aren’t given rights they deserve – the gay community is made up of human beings who, until very recently, haven’t been seen as equal to the straight community. Making gay marriage legal isn’t wrong. Refusing to let two people get married just because they are both men or both women, on the other hand, *is* wrong.
Thank you for your service. Regardless of your opinion on homosexuals, you and your fellow soldiers are the reason that today we can be who we are in our neighborhoods. You are the reason that today we can be married in several states and will be able to be married in many more.
Thank you. We as a country are indebted to you.
FREEDOM!!!
This is the sort of ignorant crap that gets my blood boiling. You should actually read the Bible sometime instead of regurgitating what some hateful ignorant preacher told you. Jesus loves everyone and we are supposed to be like Jesus. So, love everyone or stfu.
That’s right, don’t hate the sinner, hate the sin.
It’s not a sin. By saying that you are really not much better. How would you like if all gay people told you that your hetersexuality is a sin?
Gee, Sodom & Gomorrah?
If you have actually read the story of Sodom & Gomorrah, you’ll know it wasn’t about homosexuality being wrong. It is about inhospitality. Back in those times, gay sex was seen as an act of domination. The man “on top” was seen as the one in control, and his partner was seen as “the woman”. When the men in the city of Gomorrah wanted Abraham to bring out his guests so they could rape them, it was meant as a threatened act of degradation and humiliation. In the Bible, Jesus, the son and essentially the mouthpiece of God, told people to be kind and respectful to one another. Anyone who has actually read the story of Sodom & Gomorrah knows that it was Sodom’s history as a crime-ridden, hostile place that led to it’s destruction.
Owned.
not THAT is tolerance
hypocrite says what?
I read things like this, and am reminded of a friend who described Christian belief as such: “Love, care, and do good for others. Hate and judgment has no place in a Christian heart. Jesus had no prejudice; why should anyone who believes in Him have it?” Sadly I believe many simply hide behind the designation without believing any of the tenets except those that support their own personal beliefs and prejudices.
Reminds me of Gandhi-
I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians, they are so unlike your Christ.
-Paraphrasing-
Ppl like you make me glad to be a redhead and therefore soulless.
No, YOU are a FAIL. You make me sick and you are NOT a Christian!
Yes. I agree with you, especially on the tolerance topic.
lmao. Go back to the corners of the Earth, Bible troll. Your bigotness is not welcomed here.
you know statistically speaking there are more people around the world that would be considered a religious “troll” as you say… than there are the (im guessing what youd call them) “open minded” and “progressive” people. You know how you hate the israelis and love the arabs? well arabs would MURDER you for being gay or cheating on your husband (not for the husband cheating on the wife though) or if you become too westernized or if you date inter-racially, etc. etc. etc. Exactly why do you think you have the power to stand up and tell someone who disagrees with you, who is in the majority mind you, to go away? Also do you know the definition of bigot? Try looking that up rather than flinging words around you think sound mean.
which is exactly what you just did…. You judged someone in god’s place… looks like youre no better than he is… maybe you should STFU… homo.
OH LOOK you’re being judgemental too. and calling someone a homo is very disrespectful. you are not anymore ‘correct’ than anyone on this page. why are you all fighting to be right? you are all entitled to your own opinions and beliefs… attacking each other does not make you right, or the better person!
Hebrews 13:4 Marriage must be respected by all and husband and wife faithful to each other. God will punish the immoral and the adulterous.
I believe if I’m not mistaken, but isn’t the Bible the Word of God?
Then aren’t you going to follow the ENTIRE word of God? If we follow everything in the Bible, then men can still beat their wives and we can all still own slaves.
It always makes me laugh to see people pick and choose which parts of their religion they’d like to follow.
No, it is the compiled ideals and prejudices, wisdom and stupidity of a group of Middle Easterners.
How did you crazy people get here?
Oh, good grief, there is no god, get over it. And it’s a lucky thing for you there isn’t, because god would be sending you to hell for your hatred and for thinking you are qualified to judge another human being.
and yet this guy watches girl on girl action
Not saying anything about my personal opinions, because if I post them on here it’s not like it will change how anyone else sees the world, nor do I actually care if others agree with me…
I would simply like to point out that not all christian protesters of gay marriage use love, in fact, quite a few of them are downright hateful. If you honestly believe that each and every Christian on earth protests peacefully with tolerance, then how about the ones who protest at funerals? But just to be clear I’m not saying that all christians are violent, intolerant protesters. Some are just as you described, and I know that. What I’m saying is that you can’t make a broad generalization about a group of people whether it’s a positive one or a negative one. Human beings are just too diverse to categorize like that.
So, in other words, just because a group of people have the same ideas as you it doesn’t mean that they’re all good people. And just because there’s another group that you don’t belong to doesn’t mean that they’re all heartless. I am often disgusted when those who have the same faith or nationality as me do hateful, intolerant things, and personally, I don’t like to be grouped in with some of them.
You can keep your heaven. I don’t want to go there if it’s filled with people like you.
For being so Christian and full of love you sure have a lot of hate for those who are different from you. Congratulations to NPH and all who benefit from this wonderful showing of equality. We are all human beings in God’s eyes, and if he loves us like you say he does, than being with someone of the same sex will not divert anyone from the path to salvation. I think God wants us to be good people and ‘love thy neighbor,” not waste our short, precious time on this Earth on horrible words and thoughts like yours, MM.
you sir (or ma’am), WIN as a Christian.
Amen!
umm methinks thou doth protest too much

I’m not a christian so I can haz gay marriage?
if you are gay and want to get married, sure.
As far as I’m concerned, you can haz gay marriage whether you’re a Christian or not.
You missed the tweet where NPH points out that while he’ll soon be able to get married, they’re not actually planning a wedding at this moment. Cart before horse.

Good one NY.
In case it’s not clear, I totally support NY in making it possible for same sex couples to marry. Let’s just hope that one day soon, everyone in the world will be able to marry their chosen partner no matter the mix of sexes involved.
what about PARTNERS, plural?
go back to utah
Oh but wait, you support “tollerance and diversity” right? So if people of the same sex can marry, why can’t they also have multiple husbands/wives? Hell, if they want to and it makes them feel good, who are we to intrude on their happiness?
I have to agree, my friend said he couldn’t ever love just one woman/man, and I think people should be given the right to marry as many as they can support financially. I prefer one woman in my life, but that doesn’t mean everyone should just settle for one especially since there’s a lot of people who are capable of loving many. And I think that’s amazing.
I think he was just trying to make a point since he doesn’t think gay people should be allowed to marry. I also agree though, as long as no one is being forced into a union or is under the legal age of consent I don’t have a problem with Polygamy. That goes for women being married to more than one man as well.
Ah, and the other shoe falls. There we go people, Age Of Consent. Mind you, I am in no way condoning underage sex but, if we’re going to allow same sex marriage under the pretense that it’s “The pursuit of happiness”, then who are we to tell a 16 yr. old that he/she can’t marry a 20yr old? I mean it’s going to make them happy right? We’re expected to be open minded about all of this right? Because if we rule that we can’t infringe on the liberties of one group, what makes it right for us to infringe on the liberties of another. Nice slippery slope we’ve taken a ride down as a society huh?
Oh I’m sorry, I mistyped. I should have been writing legal age because when you’re under the age of eighteen you cannot enter into a legal contract, like marriage. In some states if you’re sixteen you can legally get married to a twenty year old with the signed consent of your parents. I grew up in Washington and the age of consent is sixteen but the person you are with can only be two years older than you.
There’s a big difference between consenting adults and children.
Think for maybe just a moment?
hey, wherex the tolerance, people shud be able to marry to as many partners as they want…provided all is consensual with all people involved…
Dear God. I just spent half an hour reading through that. Some people just won’t quit will they?
Way to go NPH! Good for you!
Marriage between same sex beings is just not right. But whatever, it’s not my country.
Who do you think you are to claim it is not right?
how many dogs or cats or birds or fish or even MONKEYS do you see pairing off in homosexual relationships? Dogs will mount each other to show dominance but they dont mate for life in homosexual relationships… thats a human failing.
there have been many cases of homosexuality being apparent in other species so no… that is NOT a human ‘failing’
f you need a good example to prove it type in gay penguins into google; it will show you a wonderful story of gay penguins raising a chick that had been rejected by its biological parents in germany, it will also show you an example of a gay penguin couple in china.
i won’t debate dogma with you nor debate the rights and wrongs as that is a never ending fight because i am sure i will never convince you and vice versa.
BUT, if you are going to make claims outside of dogma please make sure they are actually provable.
Thanks
And don’t peguins mate for life?
*penguins
Sorry, I don’t have auto spell check on this laptop,
Also there is a certain species of monkey that engage in sexual behavior with one another regardless of the gender. They do it for pleasure and are known to be one of the few species of animals that have sex face to face when it was previously thought hat only humans do that.
*that
Damn, how many times did I write the word “that” in there?
They’re called Bonobos.
Ah, thank you. I could never remember the name.
How many dogs/cats/birds do you see driving cars at 65 mph. How many do you see building skyscrapers? How many do you see mowing their lawns, shaving their faces, buying and wearing shoes?
Your comparison is a stupid one. Homosexuality is not a “failing”. It is the way we are.
Dude, you’ve never tried acid.
Oh wait, you are some Eastern European religious ****. Man, I’m glad to be part of the progressive part of Europe
don’t put all eastern Europeans in the same category, please
some of us are quite liberal
some=most.
ohhh progressive… Ive heard of THEM….Here’s what they did to America
created an income tax (in direct contradiction of the constitution so they had to get an amendment passed… you know for the people’s benefit)
ended the appointment of senators (also needed an amendment to do this)
imprisoned germans and Japanese, and even killed some who even SPOKE German… IN AMERICA… free speech what?
They created the Federal reserve which isnt a government agency but a conglomerate of privately owned banks… and we cant audit their books even though they are lending money to the federal government which by proxy lowers the value of our dollar and raises prices on goods… but hey dont worry thanks to the progressive president Jimmy Carter we dont count the price of gas or food going up as inflation anymore!
During the depression that the fed caused they started 38 programs in 8 years that lowered the unemployment rate 5%… and remember this is when women didnt really work all that much and it was only men who were the bread winner so we technically had 50% unemployment to start with. Then during the depression the reported rate was 24.9 at its highest point… so we literally had 25.1% of the entire country that were of working age employed. What did the progressive FDR do? massive government spending and mandates! He took everyone’s gold … confiscated it! Their property was taken from them because the government wanted more money! Fascism whats that?
They created the social security program that costs about 1/4 of our 3.8 trillion dollar budget now less than 100 years later
they created the medicare program that is costing us about 15% of our 3.8 trillion dollar budget
They have just last year set up a medical law that will force health insurance companies out of business and make it cheaper for business owners to pay a fine (unconstitutional btw) rather than offer their employees health care. But hey dont worry about that they are phasing that in over 10 years….
Their platform always sounds lovely but it ends up in a huge overbearing government dictating who can do what and how much they will make doing it…

Good. We have enough bigot here.
please define bigot without looking it up. Im curious to know what you think it means.
Wait…NPH is gay??
Wait…you didn’t know?
You must admit that his Barney is a pretty convincing ladies men :p I love the fact that they gave him a gay brother on HIMYM
I love that his gay brother is Wayne Brady.
argue all you want — NPH uses his Dr. Horrible photo for his little icon, and that is awesome!
Best wishes to NPH
I cannot believe my eyes…
Is the world finally growing wise?
Cause it seems to me….
some kind of harmony….
Is on the rise!
Congrats, NPH!
Angus, you have won. Please go to the cashier to collect your internets as you have won so many that I cannot possibly carry them all.
Well, the world has been working on this for the last 10 – 15 years now with the USA trailing behind so about time.
From wikipedia: Same-sex marriage is currently carried out throughout ten countries: the Netherlands, Belgium, Spain, Canada, South Africa, Norway, Sweden, Portugal, Iceland, and Argentina.Mexico City also performs same-sex marriages,[3] which are recognized in all 31 Mexican states.
So I take it your world does not include all the other countries?
I hate it that in my country one political party got to CHOOSE which other political parties should come to the goverment (because of some confusion after the people’s election) to decide our countries things. And they took one crazy religious-party with them, and that religious-party had only one demand: no gay-marriage or gay-adoptionright discussions as long as they are there deciding. So even though maybe over half of the crazy and stupid fellow country-men were ready for gay-rights, it’s not going to happen until the next election. And that’s horrifying how slowly things change for the better.
Appropriateness five!
growing wise to what? the fact that homosexuals are just out to cause a scene and thumb their nose at society? no sorry.
Congratulations, you have figured out the gay agenda, yep, that’s right, that’s all gay people want to do, flounce around and cause scene that’s what they’re here for. I’m not going to argue that some homosexuals revel in scene causing but most of the gays I know are just people, they just live their lives and that is that. The ones that are married didn’t do it to laugh in the face of straight people who didn’t think they should be married, they did it for the same reason that many straight people get married. Come to think of it, I’ve known straight people to get married, not because they loved the person they were with but because they just thought it was “time to get married”. No really, for serious, they didn’t really WANT to get married they just thought they should. I don’t know many, or really any gay couples that got married for that reason. None of them got married just for “funnsies” and to piss of the straight and religious community. When they got married, they didn’t rub their hands together and laugh manically and send out little gay minions to spread the news that they were married, they didn’t take out an advert the local papers, they didn’t buy air time on the radio or television to broadcast the ceremony live via satellite.
But hey, that’s your opinion and you have a right to that.
Christianity = EPIC FAILURE
Gross over-generalization = MASSIVELY EPIC FAILURE
Doesn’t make the EPIC FAILURE comment less correct. XD Plus, what else but gross over-generalisation has religion ever done?
I am an atheist, and I find this unfair. Religion makes some people happy, and helps them make sense of an otherwise unjust and chaotic world. It’s when they throw their religions in the faces of others that it becomes a problem, and when we insult their religions as a form of retaliation. Live and let live.
Why is this guy so popular again?
Because he’s awesome.
It makes me sad as a Christian to see so many ignorant comments made by other Christians. It makes people want to lump us all together and think that all Christians hate homosexuals and appose gay marriage. As I said I AM a Christian and I am part of the HRC and believe in and support gay marriage. God loves ALL of us.
Those of us who are non-believers tend to lump you guys together sometimes, which is just as unfair as hating on gays. It can just be frustrating at times when people cite a book that was written that long ago and base their prejudices on it.
Thanks for proving people wrong. Yes, there are lots of Christians out there who truly embody what Christianity SHOULD be about – loving thy neighbor. I hope more people follow your example.
Hate is wrong, it’s just that simple. Though not everyone who is against gay marriage hates homosexuals either. Heck you got to take into account the gays that are fighting against gay marriage being legal.
I for one think this shouldn’t even be an issue. You shouldn’t have to make into a law something that should just BE.
Trying to define who gets to marry is a hypocritical set of arguments anyway. Politicians (including Obama) like to come out and say that marriage is 1 man and 1 woman because it’s tied into religion. In that case, we logically have to then determine which religion its tied to. Is it only Christians that get to marry then? What about Atheists?
Is it only okay for all us straight people that are going to hell because they’re pretending to be like you? It’s okay for a sinner to marry Bubbles the Stripper in Vegas at two in the morning for the same reason it’s cute to watch a dog wearing people clothes?
There is no sanctity in marriage. The only sanctity comes from the people involved and their dedication to it.
I agree!
“Politicians (including Obama) like to come out and say that marriage is 1 man and 1 woman because it’s tied into religion”
Without having actually met the guy. And using gross over-exaggeration in lumping all politicians as ‘politicians’ I’d say that politicians say whatever they think will get them the most votes.
If successful in political life it isn’t until they are old and nearly dead and they write an autobiography, that you would know what they ‘think’ vs what they ‘say’.
And I have to agree with that. I just watched a video of him not too long ago of him early in his career saying he supported gay marriage. Then cut to his presidential campaign where he’s sudden against it because it offends his faith.
Which is why I mentioned him specifically in my previous post, what with it being fresh in my mind.
However, I didn’t say ‘all politicians’, I said ‘politicians’. If you read it that way then I apologize for not being clear.
You know what? I’ve been married to my partner for two years now since Iowa made it legal. I don’t know if anyone else’s marriage disintegrated because of it. I don’t recall the earth splitting open and swallowing us whole. I don’t believe I received any toaster ovens for converting other little girls to dykehood. My retort to the holier-than-thous: “If you don’t want to marry someone of the same sex, don’t! No one will force you and no one will force a church and its clergy to perform a marriage ceremony.” All we want is equal treatment in the eyes of the law. Social Security benefits, healthcare rights, etc.
You mean the toaster oven thing is a LIE? Aw man!
That’s really cute!
I’m glad it passed.
Good luck to NPH and his partner.
This is great thank you New York!
I’m so happy on behalf of Neil and David!
Hey, I think it’s great! Now gays can be as miserable as the straights. Yay Equality!
America isn’t fair to gays… so they should each get their own island. One for the guys and one for the women. We will give them everything they need and check on them in a 100 years. I’m sure both civilations will have flurished!
Of course they’d be fine! Many/most gay-couples have kids. If there was a gay-island I’d move there just to get away from small-minded straights and closet-gays. They’re the worst.
Sue Sylvester, is that you?
good for you NPH
