Are you talking to me? The idea that gays choose to be gay is preposterous.

I'm against gay marriage. It disgusts me to even see it. Just like cigarette smokes disgusts me to even smell it. The same as religion disgusts me and I wouldn't be caught dead near any church, homosexuals disgust me.

All the forcing your gay lifestyle on me isn't going to change anything. The mere thought will always be disgusting to me.
No one FORCED you to open this thread. YOU chose to.

Marriage is not natural, it is a man made legal construct.

Even if it were (only about money or benefits, which it isn't), how would heterosexual marriage be different? Don't heterosexuals also marry for benefits? And if they sometimes do, why shouldn't homosexuals have the same right? And if heterosexuals marry for love (as sex doesn't need a ring on your finger in case you didn't know), why would it be different for homosexuals?

People marry for many reasons, love, commitment, security, benefits, cultural tradition, etc, most often many reasons rolled together.

But I would like for you to explain to me WHY such a kaleidoscop of reasons would be okay for committed heteresexuals but not for committed homosexuals? The only reason I can see of is if you're against equality.

Prove me wrong. Good luck.

MY kids really care about this, and are not allowed to play COD (too violent for the youngest).
