Can you show me where I claimed you or anyone else "hated" me or anyone else?

And the fact that we disagree over whether or not that is a valid marriage does not mean that we hate you.

Again, I don't care if you think it is valid or not, I only care what the STATE says in regard to the validity, the churches opinion doesn't matter. And I never claimed that you or anyone else hates me.

You suggested that we want to deny you basic human rights. We don't. We just deny what those basic human rights are.

The Supreme Court disagrees. Sorry.

If you're going to live under this roof (the USA) you will abide by the rules, whether you like them or not.

Yikes, I sound like my father.

The above "logic" - according to Matt "The Oil" Slick.

Viz and the Slickster have ALWAYS allowed gays to marry someone of the opposite sex whom they do not love and are not attracted to!

Out of the goodness of their shriveled little fundamentalist hearts!

Knobs.

And I didn't say anything about hate, I said that it is not loving, respectful nor kind to deny equal rights to American citizens. YOU were the one that brought up hate.

Whatever. You are the one that is changing the narrative to suggest that it's not loving, respectful or kind to deny what you say are basic human rights.

The question is what those basic human rights are. If we disagree about them it's not that we don't love you, respect you, or want to treat you worse than anyone else.

If I decided I have a basic human right to a $70,000 4x4 pickup with 35" tires in my driveway and you disagreed, does that mean I can suggest you're unloving, disrepectful, or wan tto deny me rights?

What are you reading? I don't think it is my post. I was discussing equal rights, as in equal protection of the laws, not basic human rights.
If you want to discuss your own made up narrative, please stop quoting my posts to do so. If you want to discuss what I ACTUALLY posted, then do so and not what you imagine they say.

As we've said...when YOU decide what the rights are and we disagree with them, it's not unloving or disrespectful.
