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? |
