I guess where we differ is what is a fundemental right
Two married couples should not be treated differently. If they can both be married, then they can both be given all the Rites to Passage of being married.
We can't tell one that all is well because they are white, then tell the other to sit on it and rotate because they happen to be black.
Just as we cannot tell one that all is well because they are male and female, then tell the other to sit on it and rotate because they are both girls or both guys.
If they're married, then they're married.
No Ifs, Ands, or Butts.
Though, I wonder why homosexuality is such a horrible thing to begin with.
((For the record, marriage is overrated. I would not love my husband any less if our "marriage" was just called a Civil Union.. CIVIL UNIONS FOR ALL ADULTS! YEA!))
Gays are not discriminated against, what you want are special interests. Blacks aren"t only discriminated against they were subjugated and enslaved.

Laws which give certain people rights and deny others those very same rights is the exact definition of discrimination. You need to look in the mirror and do some serious soul searching. You have never provided a reason to deny gays their rights other than " the bible told me so"
They are not being denied any rights. What they want is more rights than the rest of us

Kinda like what blacks were doing back in the 60's. Which is what the comparision between the gay plight and the black plight is.
Yes we can, we do and will continue to do so. You may not like it but its the reality today.
Two married couples will not be treated differently because in this country only a man and woman can be married

you have failed to provide any explanation for denying them their rights?????? What is the reason to do so????? Just because you don"t like them? Is that really the only reason you have??? You are a joke.
I explained this to you ad nauseum in another thread last night. Are you really that dense.

Straights have the rights to marry
Gays do not.
Gays want the right to marry.
