Apples and steak. Religion is not considered abnormal and against human nature unlike homosexuality
Homosexuality is not against nature. Human nature is another story and is relative to the individual. No two humans are alike, we are raised with different cultural influences, family influences, religious influences, etc. Religion is not a natural product of being human, it is a construct of our beliefs and not something one is born with. Religion is more of a choice than ones sexual preference.
Wow, right wing heads will explode over this one-- How will they balance their bigotry with their love of states' rights? Or are they only for states' rights when it comes to things like being against the Civil Rights Act of 1964?
and doma has nothing to due with it.....DOMA says the federal government does not recognize same-sex marriages on the FEDERAL level. The law does NOT mandate states to not recognize same-sex marriages.. it GIVES the states their rights.that the 10th protects...
This post is for both of you. None of you have any legal basis for what you said. Why? Because Social Security and Medicaid are FEDERALLY FUNDED programs. If the states want to let homosexuals get the benefits of such programs, the states can't accept federal funds for such programs
Even though I don't necessarily like the results. I do support the right of the state to handle issues such as gay marriage.
But I find the whole situation to be hilarious and ridiculous. Laws like this are just another example of one state trying to control another state. And it isn't just the conservatives that try to control liberals. It goes both ways. Everyone is guilty. Because no one can seem to mind their own business.
Not being able to mind our own business is what has caused almost every war this country has ever been involved in. Which is especially true with every war since WWII.
I'm kind of hoping Russia invades some more people, so we can sit around crying about how terrible they are, all while we kill hundreds of thousands of arabs without any right or authority, while pretending we are the good guys.
Did you just equate LGBT rights to the Civil Rights struggle in the 60s? If you did, hope you know that is very insulting to black people and other minorities
Civil Rights movement was for EVERYBODY, including LGBT community and you. It was a defeat for social authoritarians and they, understandably, opposed it.
The situation is not quite the same, but very much along the lines. Once again, social authoritarians are trying to dictate the way, as they have done over eons on various issues, not limited to the issues of civil rights, anti-semitism and gay rights. They just are all about control, and about controlling others' life and freedoms. They always have been.
Are you straight? Did you choose to be straight? When did you choose to be straight? I did not choose to be straight, I only chose to not be in the closet and pretend to be straight.
yep straight and pround i should have a parade- good for you you believe you were born this way -not all gays are born that way they choose it.
