Do you agree with Same-sex marriage?

Why should it be exclusively a religious ceremony when the invention of the concept of marriage precedes the invention of religion?

The fact that this is even a question disturbs me because it implies same sex marriage is something that it's acceptable to disagree with and which needs society's approval. But yes, of course I agree with it.

For me, marriage has deep rooted religious ties and has done so for centuries. Yes, it may well have predated religion as we know it today but marriage as we know it today has been heavily influenced by the church.

Then you do realise you are picking and choosing what parts of the bible to listen to?
Who are you to decide what words of god are legitimate?

Hmm, so do you have issues with infertile heterosexual couples getting married since they can't conceive naturally?

I've explained this too many times on TSR. If God wanted gay men then he would of created two men instead of a man and a woman.

But guess what? A woman and a man were created because they can conceive, and it's the natural way.

No.

You are free to disagree with the acts. Although on reflection why one should disagree with something which is not remotely your business is a question.

However what is clearly no longer acceptable is to discriminate against, bully or undermine people just because their sexual choices are different from ones own.

I was actually speaking to you. You can't seem to say a sentence without saying lmao or lol.

How does that make someone an idiot though?

Depends on what you mean, I think same sex couples should be recognised by the state just as heterosexual couples are.

Should they be able to demand that religions that prohibit gay marriage officially recognise their union and/or be forced to hold their marriages ceremonies in their churches then no.

My understanding of the subject maybe wrong, but I thought the controversy was that homosexuals were demanding Christian ceremonies and marriages in Christian churches.

I suppose in the UK protestant churches are owned by the state, and are technically public institutions/not private like America............ hmm. this is complex.

A better question would be do homosexuals have a right to IVF, in the case of female/female relationships. Or the equal right to adopt. Technically they shouldn't be able to have children anyway, so saying homosexuals have an equal right to a family like heterosexuals seems self refuting.

Not even sure if I'm for equal rights then!?

Again with the needless rude way of speaking to me. {/quote]
Its not rude, its the truth. When you are purposefully twisting my words to portray me in a certain way then I am of course going to take that as an attack against me.


Maybe think before you post, then you wont make the errors you have done. All I can see here is someone who is overly emotional going on a tirade and in the midst of all that, logic has gone out of the window.



And all I did, before you jumped on my opinion, was say that in my opinion marriage should be reserved for the religious and nonbelievers of any sexuality shouldn't be allowed to get married. I dont believe heterosexual atheist men and women should be allowed to get married either. To me, its a religious ceremony with deep rooted religious ties.

Out of interest, if there is a girl you want to spend the rest of your life with, would you want it legally recognized?

Misunderstanding your post is not "purposefully twisting your words" and calling me thick and an idiot is not a fact it is your OPINION. Which is ironic considering you just a couple of posts ago slated my ability to distinguish between facts and opinions.

When you purposefully go out of your way to verify that stupidity with your posts, then you consolidate those opinions.



I've outlined this above already in the thread.

That first sentence didn't even make sense. And again with the needlessness of calling me stupid.

Because I hate jihadi loonies and she doesnt like my disapproval

No. I have no interest in getting married. I'm in a happy relationship with someone now and none of us have plans to get married. We're quite happy together as is.


Nothing. I don't need a piece of paper to declare my love for someone else.

It does to people with an IQ over the average European shoe size.


It is on this page. Its not exactly going to put you under any great deal of stress to scroll up.


The feeling is mutual.

Other individuals aren't like us and do want to get married - and in the future you may want that too, even if you wholeheartedly protest now. It's hardly fair to dictate whether they're allowed because "it's not for you". Strikes me as similar to throwing someone's drizzle cake off their plate because you don't like lemon.

You have crappy attitude.

What do you mean by jihadi loonies?
I think you have your definition of jihad wrong

Which is why I don't dictate. Have you seen me out in the street with a placard telling people how they must live? No. Have you seen me run as an MP and try to influence policy to control and shape people's lives? No. I let others get on with their lives, whilst still appreciating the fact that I can give my opinion. Giving an opinion is not trying to dictate to people how they should live. The sooner the loony brigade realise this the better. Whether I like it or not these people can still get married, and thats something I'm not going to get up in arms about at all.

Oh look, a banned member.

I'm simply countering your viewpoint with my own. A viewpoint which would inhibit the rights of others if realised, which is why I think it is a disputable one.
