Those organizations don't hate gay people. They are simply "Pro-Traditional Marriage"!
If they don't hate gay people, why do they spend so much in time and resources spreading lies and propaganda? Twisting studies to the point that the originators have had to make statements against these organizations?
It's one thing to be supportive of your vision of marriage. It's another to consistently lie about others.
It's one thing to feel that your flavour of religion is the "right one" in regards to any/all topics. It's another to use the government to create laws based upon your religion alone.
Marriage has been "redefined" throughout history.
But this is nothing that hasn't been presented to you many times in the past, now you can ignore it again!
How marriage has changed over centuries - The Week Has marriage always had the same definition? Actually, the institution has been in a process of constant evolution. Pair-bonding began in the Stone Age as a way of organizing and controlling sexual conduct and providing a stable structure for child-rearing and the tasks of daily life. But that basic concept has taken many forms across different cultures and eras.
Sure, marriage has been redefined throughout history. Some changes maybe for better, others for worse. Could be the stone age people 'pair-bonding' was the best method.
The function of marriage --- to cement national alliances vs. affection, for example --- has changed more so than woman-man. SSM was never a 'traditional' form.
That doesn't mean ssm is a bad change for the U.S., where for all practical purposes, woman-man marriage is the tradition.
I have a close friend that is in a position to see the financials for several franchise owners in the southwest. According to him, year over year same store sales are down in excess of 20%. One day of purchases by hateful bigots can't possibly make up for an indefinite period of lost sales from an unknown number of people that have chosen to boycott.
There are rumors that some of the franchise owners are considering a class action lawsuit against the parent company and Mr. Cathy to recover some of the lost value of their investments.
The CFA in Hollywood. calif is giving away a bunch of free stuff for their 1 year anniversary to lure in the customers that they've lost. I won't even eat a FREE sandwich when one is offered to me. I've convinced myself that the sandwiches tastes really crappy.
Marriage isn't a right. But just to be clear, you support a dad marrying his daughter, as long as they are consenting adults? A mom and her son? Mom and daughter? Brother and sister?
Once you start comparing homosexual relationships to incest you have more than lost the debate.
