hey welcome back where you been girl???

nice use of brown text for africa by the way

I have been getting in touch with my roots lately.  Plus, I've been having totally boy troubles!  I think it's very nice that homosexual couples would like to get married, but I simply do not believe that we should donate to this!  I believe that there are greater causes out there than marriage!

I wish I lived in Cali to vote No on this, but I'm on the other end of the US.

I mean, anybody should be able to marry the partner of their choice.  What happens behind closed doors is not really my concern, or anyones.  Unless it something like murder... /random tangent.

I honestly don't think schools are going to teach about gay marriage, even if it's legalized.  At least not THAT early.  Hell,      I've known about gay people since I was like... 10 or so (My father), and it's never hurt me in any way unless you count the whole...  getting ridiculed in school and morons saying "You're dad is gay, so you HAVE to be gay, I'm gonna beat you up now because of this".

Quote from: frankie
If you ever discover you are gay, and your parents learn about it, your parents are likely to like, DISOWN YOU or something.
  Depends on how accepting vs. homophobic your parents are.  When my brother came out, my parents were basically "We sort of expected you to turn out like this..."

Good luck though, Doozer

I dated a girl once who said god loves gay people.... I mean I dont believe in god (not of the biblical god at least) but im almost positive there is a verse somewhere in the old testament about how man was meant for woman and in god's eyes thats the only thing that is acceptable. Dunno I guess. My god hates everyone but me anyways so.

love the sinner hate the sin

if gay marriage is legal how are they not going to teach about gay marriage? i guess schools don't really teach about marriage

Ya there's stuff in there like Leviticus and shit "18:22  Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination" but I don't know that anyone takes it seriously anymore because.. you know.. he died for our sins and all.

Is that site's organization interviewing people who work for them?

Also, my thoughts on the issue.

I don't think marriage between same-sex couples is necessary because its asking religions to refute their beliefs, however, I don't actually think that's the driving issue when someone wants to ban marriages between same-sex couples. Its more to do that people think that the law should conform to their religious laws when it shouldn't. Oh, and hate for gay people.

its hate

its all hate. If you want to call it something else then fine. But I GUARANTEE you that isn't it, they are hateful and they want to stop gays from having the same rights that they have. I'm willing to give them that, let them call it something else thats fine with me and if I was actually gay I might just let it be. but its all hatred and bigotry imo and people should realize that and if I speak to someone about it I will let them know that they're thinking that way whether subconsciously or not.

no it's not. if your church refuses to marry gays, it is allowed to do so.

If gays can't get married for religious reasons (despite SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE), then atheists can't either.

wow. There's a bunch of "Yes on Prop 8" videos on youtube. Are these running on TV in Cali or what?

http://www.youtube.com/user/PreservingMarriage

"I don't see how same sex marriage hurts anyone else? really, what's the harm?"

"If proposition 8 fails there's a whole bunch of consequences. Did you know that church's that rent out their facilities for marriages could be forced to allow same sex marriage ceremonies on there properties."

yeah if you choose to rent out your facilities. the hindu association of NC often rents out this freemason shrine for hindu functions. what do they think? some gay dudes are going to trick a church into renting shit out?

that is not how business works!

This isn't the care, really.  In the Netherlands, the only party that's obliged to perform same-sex marriages is the government (this is actual "civil marriage" as opposed to just a civil union, by the way).  It's up to the churches themselves to decide whether they want to do so.  In all reason, that's probably the way it should be.

The problem then is that in America there will probably be very few churches to bless same-sex marriages.  In the more liberal Netherlands this is no problem, as in practice many churches do so; America isn't ready for that yet.  But we'll cross that bridge when we get to it.

man i just looked up religion in america because i was sure islam would've been second most popular but second most popular is no affiliation/atheist at 15% with christianity at some 77% and the rest made up of everything else.

77% christian you dudes are a christian nation. like that's the same amount of jewish (religion) people in israel.

ALMOST 8 OUT OF EVERY 10 OF YOU ARE CHRISTIAN GOOD GRIEF. american atheists are overrepresented on the internet hugely.

Or American atheists are hugely underrepresented in America?

How would anyone know if you were athiest/not affiliated? Most people that do not believe in god don't belong to some massive organization like the christian church so its a lot harder to count them.
