Politically Incorrect: Gay Marriage

[Bond]

Well, lets separate this.

I was talking about legalizing gay marriage. Justin's only case right now is a religious one, which would obviously not hold up.

If we are talking about accepting gays into the Christian or whichever Church then he does have a religious argument.

Although both of his arguments are wrong because he turned down by McNair/Favre trade.

By the way, does anyone see Church attendance going way down in the near future?

I finally gave it enough posts to get a general idea of what gt'ers think.

I for one am not against gay marriages. If 2 men or 2 women want to marry, let them! But we live in a society where morals/religion is taken into affect waaay too much. I'm not saying we shouldn't base everything around religion and morals, because there are some scenarios where it just is too wrong. But if 2 men or 2 women want to get married, its their choice, not the govt's choice.

*On Bonds Last Question*
Attendance might go down. There will be people out there who will probably send death threats, hate mail, or nasty phone calls to the (I dont want to start a stereotype, but I dont remember his name) "gay bishop". I hope whomever does attempt it (and you know it will happen), gets prosecuted to the fullest extent because he/she will deserve it.

Like I said in my first post, let them get married, but don't make it manditoy or and church or pastor to marry them.

lol, now honestly, you expect me to trade my first pick for just McNair?

As for everybody else's posts, I didn't read past a couple of lines

I will read and reply in another post

Nope. Most of the Christians that I know either a) support gay marriage or b) just don't give a damn.

Going to Church is to learn about Jesus and what he did. We also learn how to apply his teachings to our everyday life. He taught us not to discriminate against anyone, so I will not discriminate against homosexual people. It's that simple.

Justin, the bottom line is that you have a religious, but not a political argument. All you need for a religious argument is your faith, for a political argument you actually need some factual points. The only political argument I could think of against gay marriage is that you could turn it into a society issue... but that still shouldn't work.

exactly, thus the reason it's pointles to argue, wht I see as fact and what sombody else sees as fact could be two completly different things that can't be proven either way.

The only thing I agree on with people in this thread is that gay people don't hurt anybody else physically.
