time for my 2 cents

I saw at least one post that said society would fall if it was allowed cause there would be no reproduction.

WRONG! Homosexuals wont mate with the opposite sex just because theyre denied the right to marry the same sex; it will have NO effect on the birth rate

Another post stated that theyd rather have gay men married than on the prowl....thats an ignorant thing to say..."gay men" arent more likely to be predators; if you wanna get statistical, im willin to bet that theyre less likely to become predators, since many gays are effeminate and thus less agressive.

Many of you say "no cause its nasty"...thats really besides the point. Drinking from the toilet is nasty, but it aint illegal, and any law making it illegal would be a HUGE infringement of personal rights. What people do is their own damn business.

HOWEVER....i PERSONALLY cringe whenever this topic is brought up; is it correct to call it a marriage as opposed to a union? isnt the term marriage, biblically at least, reserved for a man-woman union?

but again, i feel that its really not the governments place to make that call, just as its a little silly for some states to prohibit alcohol sales on sundays--what in the hell is the justification, if church is truely seperated from state?
