Cali Constitutional gay marriage ban struck down

[Here4Good]

Because marriage is a very real structure like a house or a building. All who are married share that house. A gay marriage weakens the foundation of the house and it starts to crumble injuring spiritually all those who share the structure. Evreybody looses you see, because once you are married, your sharing the institute of marriage with all other married people. A gay marriage corrupts the institute which you belong to, and hurts you in the eyes of God. So when your married, its not just you're marriage, its everybodys'.

Yikes. There are too many people's marriages I don't want anywhere near mine, much less sharing it...

I won't lead this down a religious debate path because religion is very personal to me, but contrary to your claims, my gay friends with stable relationships out number my straight friends. Sounds like a pretty weak structure to me...

Yeah, a 50 percent divorce rate does nothing to that structure. Marriage is a contract, not a building. And institutions are for those that need help.

The most stable and long term marriages I know (20+ years) are: an arranged marriage (Canoehead's parents), 2 hippies who got "married" because they planned to have kids and thought it should be done w/in wedlock (Mama & Papa Scooterbug), 2 hetero couples, and a gay couple.

All the rest involve divorce, infidelity, separation, etc.

Well just think how much worse it would be for straight couples if we let gays marry and weaken the foundation even more. They might even be part of the problem right now. Everything under the marriage roof is all connected.

Aren't you concerned that the desirable marriages are failing and the marriages we want to fail are working out?? Do you think it's just coinicidence that the increase in failed heterosexual marriages has followed right along with increased civil unions and gay marriages. If you don't believe that, just ask people like Micehlele Bachman, and Sharron Angle. Don't shoot the messenger. The only time I do that is when I run out of polar bears!;-)

I think having children out of wedlock (like your family) weakens families and the institution of marriage more than gays. ;-)

I agree...

I think everybody should ask the question "How does marriage between two men or two women hurt me?"

Does it really hurt anybody? No?

Massachusetts has legal same sex marriage. And based on your assessment nobody else is harmed by that.

I can accept that.

But, Massachusetts also imprisons people for 20 years if they have consensual sex between two people who are closely related (closer than first-cousin).

Does incest hurt anyone else? I can't see how.

Yet nobody complains about those rights being infringed upon.

Why?

What about polygamy?

As Kinky Friedman says, "I don't see any reason in the world that gays shouldn't be allowed to be just as miserable as the rest of us."
