Surprised this never got mentioned here. CA's Prop 8, FL's amendment 2 and Arizona's prop 102, and the whole defining gay marriage. With election coming up pretty soon, Prop 8 has been a big issue.

The argument is that Prop 8, amendment 2 and prop 102 will define that marriage between a man and a woman will be the only legal kind of marriage in California for prop 8, Florida for amendment 2, and Arizona with prop 102.

Some people argue that it has nothing to do with gay rights, or about gays in general
yet mention that if it doesn't pass parental rights, and religious freedom gets taken away.

Others mention that it does (take away gay rights), If the law passes Same sex couples will not be able to
1. Marry the person they love.
2. Those who are already married will lose the rights that come with it.


There is also the argument that Marriage is about love regardless of gender (Love is Blind).
yet others strongly believe that marriage is a religious, spiritual union between a man and a women.

To start a discussion here are several questions
1. what do you feel will happen if these laws passes and soon spreads to other states?
2. What do you feel marriage is, and should the idea of same sex marriage be allowed?
3. What do you think will happen to the children whose parents happen to be both male or female, If these laws passes what do you think will happen to the children?

Homosexuals are SO loud. I think the percentage of homosexuals in the US is like, what, 8% and somehow with so few of them, we are debating gay marriage? With how loud they are and how liberal they are in their views, once gay marriage is legalized, they are going to be wanting more.

By the way, not all gays are liberal.

Ya, your right about that. Ive actually met some gay christians, which I think ARE christians.

But, some gays are liberal and those some are loud.

Dude, you just pulled all of that out of your ass. How about if your going to attack me.. reply to something I actually said.

I didn't pull it out of my ass. From reading what you said it sure seemed like that was your train of thought since homosexual liberals are so devoid of morals as you've said.

Well, okay. Its not my place to decide whether someone is a Christian or not. That would be hypocritical of me. But a lot of things that liberals stand for are against the Bible, like gay marriage and abortion. Im not speaking for all homosexuals, but some. Most liberals get pissed off when someone stands for something based on the fact that they believe in God and strive to live according to the Bible.

how? you asked why we're even debating about gay marriage, and we are debating about gay marriage because gay people want marriage rights.

I said with so few homosexuals there are in this country, the fact that we are in such a hustle over gay marriage being legalized only points out that homosexuals are loud. They are freely expressing their right to free speech, I didnt bash them for it. I just explained that they are, in fact, LOUD.
