Quote: (Originally Posted by Lechium) I am all for gay marriges.

a) When they are married they get different tax breaks and rights than civil unions, first of all, and two gay peopel who live liek family should be treated like one in the eye of govornment.

b) "God says..." argument is invalid because there is separation of church and state in this country. Why should gay non-Christian couple be dicated when they can or cannot die based on the book that they find to be irrlevant?

c) I think gay people get enough bullshit from this world already, and passing anti gay marrige law is, really, just another form of gay bashing.

d) If you want people to accept YOU for who you are, you should accept them for what they are. Treat others how you would like to be treated yourself, right? People alwasy talk abotu how diverse and accepting this country is, and yet people seem to have problem accepting and give same rights to people who differ from them just based on who they prefere to sleep with.




I couldn't have said it better!!!
