The majority of Americans are not bigots or haters for supporting the commonsense view that marriage is the union of husband and wife, because children need moms and dads.

Judge Walker's view is truly a radical rejection of Americans' rights, our history and our institutions that will only fuel a popular rebellion now taking place against elites who are more interested in remaking American institutions than respecting them."
There's not a single word of truth in that entire piece of garbage.

I wonder when people will understand that biologically, it doesn't matter whether or not the kid belongs to both parents in the scenario in question.

Or that gay couples have proven to be just as good as hetero couples in terms of parenting.

Therefore, the "parenting" and children argument doesn't work against gay marriage anymore.

It only strengthens the case for homosexual marriage.

Um, yeah your correct - so what? The same applies to a family of a mother with a child who is married to someone other than the father.

Who gives a damn? And what relevance could that possibly have? Millions of heterosexual couples cannot procreate, my husband and I among them. And guess what, when we adopt our foster child, he or she won't be biologically related to either of us! How that relates to whether or not we should be allowed to marry is utterly beyond my comprehension and completely absurd!

I'm not saying that it matters. My point is, is that a liberal cannot even admit something that is factually true. I don't think it should be a consideration for people to get married, but can you ADMIT that homosexuals cannot produce offspring?

Biologically, no. Homosexuals cannot produce offspring. I know of no liberals that will deny this fact. However, that fact is completely irrelevant, and asinine to even bring up.

Yes it very much is on this case it is. Hence this thread.

But can you state something that is factually correct that is not politically correct, that homosexuals cannot produce offspring?

I just want to hear you say it.

If it doesn't matter, then why would you ask people to admit to something. That's like discussing whether we should send a manned mission to Mars, and in the middle of the discussion demanding that someone admit that the moon's orbit is degrading. Do you have a point, or not?

It's all part of the Gay Agenda, to brainwash people into thinking that the gay lifestyle is somehow normal and not an aberration.
