Heh thats more the argument for the whole pro-gay marriage… in CA they have civil union which are equal to marriage… expect the religion part. So gays are demanding that the government enforce their religion upon them and force them to marry them and so forth. Clearly to the gay marriage movement it is solely about religion and them forcing theirs onto others.
The simple fact is this is a matter of law and thus the gay marriage movement has no leg to stand on. Their is no law stopping gays from getting married… their are many restrictions are what marriage is however. 1. Its between a man and a women. 2. A person must be of legal age to agree to be married.
The argument of gays which is the same argument made by polygamists, child molesters, and a host of other groups is they wish to change the restrictions.
For gays that restriction is between a man and a women.
For polygamists that restriction is between how many men/women to how many other men/women.
For child molesters its whats the legal age.
etc etc etc.
Their arguments are completely and 100% the same in every way. Just what they want changed is slightly different.
Gays are not some endangers species. Even if we are to argue that being gay is biology(which is up for debate) so in many respects are any other sub-set. In fact they’re a huge amounts of evidence that support child molesters have issues in the brain… should they be allowed to have sex with 10 years olds just because their biology says its ok?
I have no problem with the whole civil unions thing… my problem comes in when gay militants wish to force their religion onto me or others… no other religion is allowed to do that. I also find it funny that no one points out that all the Mormon basing is a crime under international human rights laws… yet no one seems to care much about them. Gays in the US are some of the whiniest most stuck up wind bags their are. While in other countries like iran, iraq, palestine and a host of other gays are stoned to death(which is fully support by these gay who demand “equal rights”. Yet they care nothing about them.
Gay want the word marriage because it will give their religion legal standing and the right to sue churches who refuse to marry them. Its as simple as that. They don’t care about equal rights they just want another legal way to oppress anyone that disagrees with their religion.
