Yes, judged incompetent by legislators and government executives who then pass regulatory laws denying them the right to vote.
If you want to argue that an 8 year old or 12 year old is competent for legal purposes, you are welcome to try bringing that argument in a legal setting.
It isn't just a smoke screen, it HAS been litigated. Further, it's actually true, objectively.
I suspect you are using a false equivalency, because I have not argued many points in my discussion here.
I think it's extremely difficult, if not impossible, to use the U.S. Constitution to argue against gay marriage. Arguing on "tradition" is silly and ineffective because that's irrelevant to the Constitution. If you want to make a common good argument, then go right ahead, but that's highly debatable as to its validity.
No, you have no consistent argument based on the Constitution. I keep pointing that out and you keep pretending you do. You have to MAKE one, first.
Isn't it funny, that you're now making something up to make this personal. I have stated ONLY that I am on one side of an argument, but as of yet, haven't stated ANY argument of my own, merely pointed out that nobody has a consistent argument. There is NO constitutional issue involved in gay marriage, either to require or forbid it. It isn't a matter of rights, either, since marriage is not an individual right.
Funny how you assume certain things, and then make up arguments as if they were true.
Sodomy /ˈsɒdəmi/ is generally anal sex, oral sex or sexual activity between a person and a non-human animal (bestiality), but may also include any non-procreative sexual activity.Originally, the term sodomy was usually restricted to anal sex,and is derived from the story of Sodom and Gomorrah in chapters 18 and 19 of the Book of Genesis in the Bible.Sodomy laws in many countries criminalized not only these behaviors, but other disfavored sexual activities as well.In the Western world, however, many of these laws have been overturned or are not routinely enforced.
Sure, The gays are working overtime to get sexual deviancy in an acceptable light. It is what it is at the core of it. It is a sexual relationship between two same sex people.. as I said before. A man can love another man , a woman can love another woman , but when it crosses the line into a sexual relationship it is deviant behavior.
Exactly, women were chattel, they were property to be disposed of at will, to be raped when desired and abused without rebuttal. The bible was written by "MEN" to subjugate those they felt were inferior.
No, Sodom comes from the Hebrew word Cedom, which means to scorch. Has absolutely no sexual connotation at all, and didn't for thousands of years.
Inhospitality was the crime of Sodom. It's been that way forever.
Ezekiel 16:49 "'Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy.
Stop making Christians look ridiculous. You're doing no one a service with your posts.
What a stetch.. is that what the gays are doing now.. perverting the word of God too?
Keep your own religion.. don't push your god on the government and society.
This country was founded on moral principles. Are you saying all unreligious people are immoral and should be. Even mainstream Americans know right from wrong. Their morals do not accept homosexuality as normal or acceptable in society.

Yes it was. However; there is separation of church and state in this country. As a person who does have faith, I sure as Hell don't want someone elses twisted interpretation of their religion influencing the politics in this country. Here is a thought. How about you worry about your own morality and getting right with God yourself instead of worrying about what others do?
