    New York Appeals Court Won't Allow Gay Marriage

    Then since the majority of Americans think anal sex is yucky, let's go back to the old Texas sodomy laws? LOL am I right?

    New York Appeals Court Won't Allow Gay Marriage

    Yes. But then what the majority thinks is completely irrelevant to the discussion. The majority thinks a lot of things. I agree with some and disagree with some. How is that an issue though?

    New York Appeals Court Won't Allow Gay Marriage

    No, I didn't say you always side with the majority. I said that using the majority to prove your point is wrong unless you always side with the majority. You used the majority to prove your point... then after I asked you, you said you didn't always agree with the majority. How can you use...

    New York Appeals Court Won't Allow Gay Marriage

    I'm not "against" civil unions. The way I see it, there are three options: a. The first option is ideal. This is the government getting entirely rid of the word marriage and replacing it with civil union (or domestic partnership or whatever). This would require removing marriage from any...

    New York Appeals Court Won't Allow Gay Marriage

    See, that's the problem. So what if the majority of the public agrees with you on something? Apparently it proves your point when they do, and it's irrelevant when they don't. You can't have it both ways. In other words, unless you always want to side with what the public at large thinks...

    New York Appeals Court Won't Allow Gay Marriage

    Rational and the accepted norm are not synonymous. Ok - so it shouldn't be encouraged or sanctioned. Let me ask you then what you would prefer gay people do: a. Enter into straight relationships (whether short or long term) b. Remain totally celibate c. Enter into many meaningless short term...

    It used to be breaking the law less than three years ago.

    New York Appeals Court Won't Allow Gay Marriage

    Do you always agree with what the majority thinks? Or do you only play the majority card when it suits your viewpoint?

    New York Appeals Court Won't Allow Gay Marriage

    I summed up several arguments of yours that are not rational - the main ones being that the more children a relationship produces the better, that same sex marriage is the same as same sex couples raising children, and that same sex couples are somehow depriving kids of a heterosexual household.

    New York Appeals Court Won't Allow Gay Marriage

    People don't want to know what you do in your bedroom either. How is this relevant? I'm going to post something equally irrelevant: I don't like peanut butter. There has never been a time where I could even stand it.

    Have any homosexual advocates been silenced here?

    Eh, thongs take some getting used to, but they're actually really nice. I can't wear them nonstop though. By right side of the bed I mean that if I'm lying on my back on the bed my right arm will be closest to the edge of the bed. Now it's difficult for me to sleep on the left side of the bed.

    Mass. Court Allows Legislature to Consider Placing Gay Marriage Ban on Ballot

    All you want to debate is that marriage has been largely recognized in the Western world as the union between one man and one woman over the past few hundred or thousand years? :rofl Talk about only wanting to pick fights with ten year olds. Look, both definitions and traditions do change. I...

    Mass. Court Allows Legislature to Consider Placing Gay Marriage Ban on Ballot

    Why not support them then? They were tradition after all. In any case, in the past Christian men were allowed to have multiple wives, one wife and some concubines, or multiple wives and multiple concubines. Also, if a woman owned a female slave and was unable to have children, she could give...

    Mass. Court Allows Legislature to Consider Placing Gay Marriage Ban on Ballot

    Ok. Fine. Played your stupid game. Adultery used to be a crime. Go back far enough and it was punishable by death. Most people agreed with this. Does that make it right? If it was right back then, what makes it not right today?

    Mass. Court Allows Legislature to Consider Placing Gay Marriage Ban on Ballot

    Read my double post (which has an edit in it). I could probably dig up examples that don't include African Americans, but it's midnight and I need to get to bed. If I play your game and find some other examples will that make you happy?
