I have stated numerous times that the government should not be in the marriage business and those special benefits should not be attached to any private relationship. Civil contracts of commitment can be entered into that would be enforceable by the courts. If people want to be married - that is up to them - government should butt out.
Ahhh... now we have something we can agree on.
Government should not be involved at all. Marriage should be a religious event.
For anyone who may have 'overslept' .. The CFO who is now looking for a new job was the creep who made an @hole of himself (not to mention his 'former' company) at Chick-Fil-A yesterday!
What? Then you missed the whole point----gay marriage redefines the meaning of marriage. Between one man and one woman. I guess you didn't understand. First gay marriage----then what? You can't stop there or it would be discrimination.
How does it redefine marriage between a man and a woman? Will a gay couple marrying set off a letter from your clergy and City Hall that your marriage is null and void? Will a hetero couple's sex life suffer because the gay couple next door is getting it on? Will honeymoons of hetero couples be cancelled without a refund from Sandals? Will hetero couples no longer be welcome at family gatherings and social events? Will they be rendered infertile? Seriously...how??? The premise is beyond stupid and ignorant.
So sacred that the majority of marriages end in divorce.
If heterosexual marriage is the cornerstone of our society, we've already failed.
And everyone isn't Christian. The sooner people realize that, the better off we will all be.
Church and state are separate for a reason.
Two wrongs do not make a right and yes divorce has been an evil that breaks up families and lives, now we should add another problem to marriages? Don't think so.
Actually, the state has a huge interest in marriages that stay together and are healthy. For the children and future stability of the state. It's like you want people to own homes instead of renting them. Then the owners will take care of those homes. States should discourage divorce---no fault divorce has hurt many families----and traditional (one man, one woman) marriages. No one needs to be Christian to understand that.
I don't think Jesus told us to be man with man and woman with woman too?
On the other hand, if Jesus could have used a pressure fryer on some lamb he would have
called his franchise Lamb-Oh-God!"cause it's the best G.. D.. sandwich"
Maybe because it's a huge block of disjointed and sometimes contradictory sentences that should be split into several paragraphs?
At least it is not the same post over and over begging Christians to tell you you are going to hell.
