I understand plenty. What is your point? I am a consenting adult myself.So I assume you think it would be ok for a person to marry an animal? You didn't deny it.
Well an animal can't consent to a marriage. I'm sorry but you're just gonna have to stick with adoption.
This "logic" is the worst argument I ever hear against homosexuality, and the fact that people try to use the whole animal argument REPEATEDLY as a valid way of debating is laughable and shows the ineptness of some people's thinking. You fail miserably.
I am happy you seriously think I care about your opinion the fact still remains 100 years ago people thought homosexual marriage was never going to happen it was so unthought of etc. 100 years from now or even earlier the rate this country is going down the drain someone will marry their animal.
Yet the option is still there. It is not always there for gays and lesbians. Gay marriage is not recognized in every state. If all states would recognize gay marriage then we wouldn't even be having this discussion.
If Obama would just recognize "gay marriages", rather than giving bandaids like Clinton did "Dont Ask, Dont Tell", than we wouldnt be having this discussion because states, dont have the authority to override the legal definition of "marriage", set by the feeral government..

No one is asking them to switch off their sexual orientation, but in the same sense, LOTS of people are not afforded rights to dictate things like medical and educational restrictions/responsibilities for children they raise. Why are they now extending this ONLY to gays?

Since you seem to be having an issue with "my spouse", how about grandparents who raise their grandchildren, without legal guardianship.. When do they begin to get covered by FMLA? How about someone having control over their childrens medical, after the children get married? (such as the Terry Schiavo case) Marriage for these individuals is NOT an option..

More ignorance.. This issue rests soly upon a LEGAL issue, something beyond my control...

How about grandparents who take care of their grandchildren, they also are not afforded rights under the FMLA.. Why not, you dont think grandparents love their grandchildren?

This list of people they hate grows and grows each passing day.
Ohh please.. You cant stop spreading hate.. your own posting reaks of it.. Who will you add to your list to hate tomorrow? Give it a rest..
Kindly explain how homosexuality is an abnormality. It is well documented in most animals in the animal kingdom, and humans have practiced it for millenia.
It wasn't until some older white guys backm in the desert wrote a single sentence about it in the Bible.
I think ignorance is an abnomality. Why? because you are willfully underutilizing your brains natural ability.
Lol older white guys in the desert. Oh my Oh my. To many brain dead people here.

That argument was only valid if you happen to be as vapid as the person writing it.
My list is all filled up, sorry.
I hate no one. There's no room for that in my life or this world. Strongly dislike, yup. The entire Republican party and conservatism.

What are you talking about?
How can an animal be consenting?
Clue: It can't.
Therefore there will be no such thing as a person "marrying" an animal.
It doesn't seem like you understand the concept of consenting adults at all.
Maybe someone else will be happy to explain it to you.

So it can't consent I am sure the courts will be more than happy to oblige some sick person and change the fact that both parties have to oblige to get married hell they have given in to the homosexual/liberal agenda.
