I was mainly going for a Civil Union thing, as you mentioned.

Thanks.

I think I might implement my statement into my sig, I rather like it. Also thanks for the rep when you can give it to me.

Yep, religion's fall in politics truly began with Henry the 8th. That's when things got real messy.

This whole topic about gay marriage is a non-issue.

A couple of things I would like to point out here. Traditions can be changed. Slavery can be abolished. Marriage can come to include two men or two women. In the end, it should only be focused around who loves who, not whose penis is going into this man's ass. Who cares what two fags down the street do to eachother at night? It is no one's business but there's. If they do not effect you, then shut the fuck up.

This isn't pedophile legislation. If that were the case, then it would effect you because your children would be at risk by sick perverts who are out to satisfy their sick fetishes.

I am against stupidity, but you don't see me yelling at all the idiots posting their bigotry in this thread.

Yay for fag marriage, no to the stupidity that exists enmass in America.

Re: Do you Jim take John to be your lawfully wedded something or other?
 

To you, maybe it is.

This one should be left alone for the straight people, like it always has.
No, a Civil Union can, not marriage.
omgz, make me!


Clever. I am also against idiots who believe the opposite that I do, but you don't see me calling them idiots.

I agree he was rude, but on main topic...

Why? Just because something is 'tradition', doesn't mean it should be upheld at all costs, or more specifically the cost of the rights of gays.

Re: Do you Jim take John to be your lawfully wedded something or other?
 

Why invade on our tradition at all?
Its like a screaming kid at the supermarket.
Nobody is denying them their legal rights here, at least not me. Just the name they want to steal bothers me.
Calling two men married is not only abnormal but just plain wrong.
When a kid is told someone is married that kid should not have to wonder what sex they are.
Talk about dysfunctional.

Read a few pages back about the Christian holidays thing.

J00 stole our holidays!!!!11!! :uhoh:

When a kid is told about Christmas, presents shouldn't be the first thing that comes to mind.... Same logic, yet atheists celebrate Christmas.

Apples/oranges

Re: Do you Jim take John to be your lawfully wedded something or other?
 

He does have a point. the christmas thing is applicable here, just requires a bit of twisting around.

Re: Do you Jim take John to be your lawfully wedded something or other?
 

If a tradition is "changed" it is no longer tradition. Tradition is something that stays the way it is.

What a stupid thing to say.

As I said Marriage is defined by the joining of a man and a woman. Two men is not marriage, they should really make it a separate ceremony or whatever, not change one that is already there.

Re: Do you Jim take John to be your lawfully wedded something or other?
 

Marriage is the religous ceremony that unites a man in a woman in the eyes of God and a particular religon. A Civil Union unites any two people into a legally recognized union, iwth equal rights no matter who happens to get it.

What is the problem with this set up? Wouldn't it appease all parties?
