Current Events > Anybody on this board against gay marriage?

(+) Yeah! (+)

it's nothing i give a shit about, still can't believe that like as soon asw 5 years ago it was illegal in much of the u.s.

Nah. I'm Christian and everything too. Let them be happy. Big argument was "sanctity of marriage" . That shit was ruined by people getting married like 5 times.

This is true. Divorce is an illusion. The Bible is very clear that anyone who divorces and remarries--except in cases of adultery--is an adulterer.
---

I mean

If the bible is the word of god, than there is no gay marriage, or remarrying, its just a charade

Just the law of man that says gay marriage is marriage, and god doesnt observe the law of man

Do you believe that a cake shop should be punished for refusing to bake a cake for a gay wedding?
---

It's much more complicated than the pro side will admit, because the discussion would necessitate some ugly truths. Of course, we couldn't talk about that sort of thing here.

why shouldn't they be? If the law is they can't do something like that because the couple is black or asian then why shouldn't it be the same?

I think the question is what do you think the law should be

Not what Is the law, thats a cop out

Because it goes against their beliefs.

See you don't just think that gay people should have the right to marry, you also think that everybody should accept that and be happy with it. I think that's going a little far.

The difference with racism is that people who are against gay marriage may not have anything against gay people, they may not think anything less of them, or of any particular aspect of their lives, except marriage. They just don't think marriage should apply to gay people.

Nope I'm not against it. I'm totally fine with it. I'm for equal rights as long as both parties love each other and can consent.

Should an artist be punished for refusing a commission that has a statement they don't agree with?

And some artists will refuse while others might go ahead and do it, right? Depending on the strength of their convictions, circumstances, etc.
---

Nope.

Gay people should be allowed to get married, divorced, and married again. Like 90% of the people I meet in the south.

Yes, that's the artists choice. You can't force a clean artist to draw porn for you, as an example.

Now if the artist refuses to serve you at all BECAUSE of the protected superficials aspect of the customer they don't like (race,gender, orientation, etc) then there would be grounds for legal action against the artist.

What if I'm against marriage itself, as a legal concept?
We shouldn't need paperwork and permission for monogamy.

There was never a "Sanctity" considering how marriage was basically about selling a woman off to another man in exchange for property or something shit.

But naturally no issues with "Arranged Marriage" from the anti gays.

Let's not even get into "Adam and Eve" when you actually take a look at the story and the real moral

Of course. We have to protect homosexuals from a lifetime a misery.

Don't make the same mistake straight people made!

Gay people have the right to be as miserable as the rest of us.

Do you follow everything from Leviticus, or just those two chapters? Heck, do you follow the entire Old Testament?

Shoot dude, I've broken multiple of the Ten Commandments, let alone the other 603. But I'm not going to tell you that's ok. I'm not perfect, and I really don't know why you would expect me to be.

I wasn't necessarily against it. I wouldn't vote for it though. I feel its something that the majority should decide on and back that

Because there aren't any ugly truths.

TC must be working for the mods to make a topic like this.

It's literally not, but ok

If God doesn't go by man's law, then why is it not ok for gay people to get married under man's law?

People should be allowed to vote based on their own morality. Ultimately it's all subjective and in any subjective subject applied to society, majority should rule

I think people should keep their religious beliefs out of other people's lives.

If your morality is based on some god's standards, the very least you could do is show that the god is real before you thrust their supposed standard onto everyone else.

I mean most people believe in dinosaurs and have never touched an actual fossil. Of course dinosaurs exist as did Jesus

i'm against marriage

There really isnt any good reason to be against gay marriage other than being a dick. Let them be as miserable as straight people can.

Religion is a fine enough reason. Both sides make fine points hence majority should rule

Its probably the dumbest, most bigoted reason.

Absolutely fucking NOT. YIKES

so can any of the religious people here explain why being gay isnt moral or is it just going to keep being god says so

---

There is no answer that you would find sufficient. To a believer, "god says so" is good enough. To a non-believer it never will be.

A male lusting after a woman who he isn't married to isn't moral, because god says so. It's considered adultery.

Two people, who aren't married to each other, having sex is considered fornication. God says so.

There is never an instance given of two men getting married to each other. Every instance of marriage is between a man and a woman, so it's inferred and assumed that is the way god intended it to be. Biblical, gay marriage is a completely foreign concept.

---

I don't see the problem with it--as a Christian my understanding of scripture is it's wrong, but I don't think the government should be basing its laws on that, and someone who isn't a Christian has no reason to follow Christian "rules." Of course there are gay Christians out there, and hey, they've interpreted things differently, that's up to them and not my business...
