Last week, someone here made a post insinuating that post-gay marriage legalization, the fight for gay rights was frivolous. Obviously, that is false, but I just saw a really good vid that lays out what civil protections gay people still lack. Check it out if you have time.

It's just religious people thinking they're more important than others. IMO, your religious beliefs don't give you the right to push people down. Your religious freedom should never be put ahead of others, and is the LEAST important right. --- "You're surrounded!" "All I'm surrounded by is fear.

I don't see why they want kids, it's not that they can't have kids it's just they aren't emotionally stable for a heterosexual relationship so why do they still want kids? A lot of heterosexual couples don't have kids, by choice or otherwise. So your post isn't relevant. MICHALECOLE posted... If we let ADAM and STEVE get married, what's next? Can I marry my CAT? Or my CAR? Considering there's no evidence Adam and/or Eve ever actually existed, much less married (they were supposedly mates, not husband and wife) your post is also irrelevant. --- Fall down, go boom...

They don't have less rights. Marriage is an institution, not a right. I honestly think that marriage is one of the biggest scams that the government runs. I mean if we are truly having separation of church and state, then the government should have nothing to do with marriage. Marriage licenses should be illegal and everyone who issues them should be sent to prison. --- I am a senior software engineer. If you see me post here, I am tired of writing TPS reports. ...

Didn't watch the video or read the topic, but if this is about discrimination in jobs there is something even worse. The gay/trans panic defense is still an acceptable legal strategy in a murder trial in most states.

It's pretty sad that this is even still controversial. What are the non-religious reasons for being against gay marriage? The reasoning would be that marriage isn't about love, that is a modern sentiment. Marriage has always been about having children, and I actually agree that people who don't have kids shouldn't get tax breaks, they don't need the extra money in the same way parents do. Homosexuals unless they adopt of have some kind of surrogate arrangement shouldn't derive a tax benefit from being in a relationship. It's an over site in the law essentially an assumption that marriage = children. As far as having your marriage recognized by the state I really don't see why anybody would want that, it's just more draconian legislation sticking there nose into people's business. If anything the state has damaged relationships with its involvement in marriage. The state used to have some incentive in keeping families together but now it seems like a racket for lawyers. ...
