Wow, your ignorance is truly astonishing! Do you even comprehend the concept of separation of church and state? No matter how much you've twisted the truth around in your mind, our laws are not based on religion. You're the one for whom school has obviously fallen very short of its goal to provide an adequate education.

I don't think you are getting the point and jumping in on opportunity to complain, and its not addressing or understanding the facts in the issue. A few analogies and it will work out fine.
I'm not complaining about anything. Simply pointing out that your argument is baseless and makes no sense. Your continuing to repeat the same foolishness does not magically make it true.

You guys are missing the difference between freedom to choose...and encouraging with support and promotion a certain path.

And so many children produced by heterosexuals are tossed out like garbage.

BTW. My wife and I have 3 children. Do they not deserve the same protections that marriage provides?

That's not necessarily true. There are some studies out there that show, on average, 2 gay parents provide a better environment for raising children than 2 opposite sex parents. If you think about it, gay parents (on average) plan for parenthood more. Two married men or two married women aren't going to have an unplanned child they aren't prepared to raise.

Every child deserves to have a mother and a father but not every adult deserves to have a child.
Every child deserves a home with parents who are capable of providing a loving, nurturing, safe, and engaging environment.

Again, I'm sure jjrose and her wife are providing every bit the home for their children as any mother/father led household. I take it you very much disagree? Do you think jjrose's children should be removed?

If you cannot properly point out exactly what the objection is from any of my quotes in their complete form, then what can I say..?

I've already pointed out exactly where/how you are incorrect. If you can't comprehend that, then what can I say?

Tell it to the bible:

King David's Wives - Wives of King David in the Bible
Quote:
Jewish Women says that equating Eglah with Michal was the rabbis' way of bringing David's marriages into line with the requirements of Deuteronomy 17:17, a law of Torah which mandates that the king "shall not have many wives." David had six wives while he ruled in Hebron as king of Judah. While there, the prophet Nathan tells David in 2 Samuel 12:8: "I would give you twice as much over," which the rabbis interpret to mean that the number of David's existing wives could be tripled: from six to 18. David brought his number of spouses to seven when he later married Bathsheba in Jerusalem, so David had well under the maximum of 18 wives.
It's good to be king.

Also, many interpret the bible to say whatever they want it to say so I find religion to be very helpful. Jesus started the Catholic Church just for that reason. Jesus was not against religion or He would not have started one. He knew we all needed a society of people to depend on, we are social beings.
Seriously?

The people who edited a book written, in most part, AFTER the death of Jesus says that they are the right ones.

Go figure.
