Quote:I'm against homosexual acts, yes, but even merely seeing gays kissing in public doesn't bother me a whole lot, unless they're making it a public act, ie they're doing it to draw attention to themselves. But I don't believe homosexuals deserve the right to marriage, and maybe it is a form of discrimination, but you know what? Life's not fair sometimes. Marriage, to those who actually value social customs, is an important part of the fabric of society, and family health in many ways, because it involves members of both sexes, and gay families will produce gay children, because any child who grows up with two daddies or two mommies is going to think it's acceptable to emulate them. And then we can say bye-bye to any hope of a moral society and to a social system that has perservered nicely for six thousand years and hello to even more widespread disease.
Oh, of course... after you ignore how that not a word you say here has any backing in anything resembling sense... I mean... it just isn't true that homosexual parents have homosexual children. Simple as that.
As for the "moral decay", I think we've established pretty well that that is only a problem to the group you are a part of -- the religous right...
Quote:Why should gays get marriage benefits? Not everyone automatically benefits from anyone else's benefits anyway. Men don't get paternity leave to help raise children, isn't that inherently unfair too?
Read: Because i dislike them they should be persecuted. Same argument the racists used in the sixties.
