    It's not about whether people are born gay or not. That's irrelevant. It's not even about whether homosexuality is right or wrong. It's about the definition of Marriage.

    If Gay couples are given the same rights as Married Couples but without having the defintion, whatthe fuck are they complaining about? Isn't the point of the discussion getting those rights? Asking for the "identity" is nonsense.

    An analogy to explain:

    Black people wanted to have the same rights as Caucasians in America. Fair argument. So now that they have all of the same rights as whites...they now want to be classified as "caucasian"! So not enough that they have the rights...they want the name also.

    Well of course people would call that ludicrous. You can't change the definition of caucasian...well you can....by why should you? It's stupidity.

    Same with Gay marriage.

    It's a big deal for prissy religious nuts who want to stand up on a soapbox and point down at others. For objective people who truly don't care, gay marriage isn't an issue. Do I care if Bob and Tom want to call their union a marriage? No. They should be allowed to call it whatever they want as long as they want.

    It has nothing to do with me. Gay people aren't harming anyone when they want to call their union a marriage. They just want the same status---the same sticker or label.

    Is it a gay marriage? Yes. Does that matter? No. Marriage can be used in many contexts, so what's the big deal about this one? Only bible thumpers or quasi-bible thumpers are offended by this.

    And if you are worried about the same term being used, sly. Simply call it a gay marriage. See, not the same phrase as 'traditional marriage', is it?

    BTW, neither is yours, sly. You've been divorced once, so you shouldn't be allowed to call yours a marriage since it was originally supposed to be "Til death do us part". From now on, you should refer to yours as a civil union.

    Oh, and your wife isn't the same ethnicity as you, so from now on, please refer to yours as an "inter-ethnic civil union", ok?

    I guess I just find it silly that people think the idea of marriage should not evolve. Like I said, originally in most Christian belief systems, it was one and done. If you don't do it that way, you're going against traditional marriage.

    Also, it was frowned upon for people to marry outside their 'race'. If you did that, the religious yammerers would pelt you, shun you, cry shame, and maybe even kill you.

    That pretty much helps sum up the amount of sympathy I have for people howling because two gay people want to get married. If you're interested in inflicting your agenda on others, then it's a big issue. If you believe in 'live and let live', it's just not a big deal.

    As long as they pay the exorbitant sanctioning fees and never try to unify with the WBO. The WBA specifically refuses to allow WBA-WBO unions. That's why Hamed was stripped after he had four unions, which is ok if you're a Muslim.

    The number of threads Sly starts about bumming is troubling.

    This is ridiculous. I mean really, in this day and age, what black man is going to call himself caucasian. Maybe sly, but who else?

    If that's the case, then I have something new to announce.

    but that's my point. Yet two men want to call themselves "married". As you said, ridiculous.

    It wasn't a response. It was a proclamation. But you want to call it a response. Hmm, you know, I accept your new definition, and now I claim victory in this debate.

    Nah...I prefer the term BLACK. :lol:

    But why would gays want to adopt a heterosexual term? That's my point. Aren't they proud of their gayness?

    Sly, what's your specific objection to gays calling their unions marriage? Do you think it undermines traditional marriage in some way?

    I take it back. What I meant to say was that you're testing the waters to see if you can get a sex change, have your mangina sowed up, and then marry yourself. :lol:

    Gay marriage is such a sad thing to worry about, sly, and it shows that many religious neo-zealots feel threatened by homosexuals. That's the real issue here.

    Before long, they'll want to drink from the same water fountains as the rest of us. Why, just this morning I had to scream twice as long to get the gay guy to move to the back of the bus and out of my rightful heterosexual seat. He kept giggling when I shouted "GET TO THE REAR!"

    It's ludicrous. Should we start complaining that Halal and Kosher butchers don't produce pork? Say I want pork...I should just go to the grocery. But if I want to be difficult I'll try to start a law that ensures that Halal Butchers and Kosher butchers have pork also. But that would be non-sensical..because pork by it's nature isn't halal or kosher. If you want Pork you have to avoid Halal and if you want Halal you abstain from pork. Those be the choices.

    Marriage is one man one woman. If a gay person wants to be married then he or she needs to couple with a member of the opposite sex...or forsake that institution.

    Simple.

    :giggle:

    "Actual definition" created recently by liberals who want the defintion changed. Rather amusing.

    What's to stop people changing the definition of "Caucasian" down the road to include blacks and Asians...and some FUCK like you quoting that new defintion to make the case? :lol:

    What does pork have to do with marriage? Are you talking about the act of wedding night coitus? [​IMG]

    Marriage as a word is not exclusively heterosexual in connotation. It may have its roots there, but the word usage has evolved. In related news, the world is no longer believed to be flat, sly.
