Gay “Marriage” Is 10 Years Old—And Christian Leaders Are to Blame

Whats interesting is, when SSM was being debated opponents claimed it would harm families, "traditional" marriage, or even society
The "traditional" heterosexual marriage divorce rate is about 50%* and they managed that in the absence of legalized gay marriage.

*except for Trump's marriages which have a rate that is quite a bit bigglier.
 
To the contrary. I don't support tax breaks for gay marriages.

Oh, really and how are American tax dollars used to support ''gay marriage''? Does the government use tax dollars to support straight marriages?

Do you think a gay couple shouldn't have rights associated with marriage, in regards to taxes, visitation rights, etc? Are you trying to tell gay people how to run their personal lives and using the power of the state to do so? Can someone who was opposed to interracial arguments use the same arguments as you?

My post speaks for itself. Here it is again since you appear to be struggling.

So, do you support tax breaks for straight marriages then? Aren't conservatives supposed to support tax breaks, or does your small government ideology only apply to people you like? If someone argued against tax breaks for interracial marriages, would you support that? What about someone who only thought Christian marriages should get tax breaks, would you support denying tax breaks to Jewish, Hindu or Muslim couples who get married?
 
So it seems like you supporting big theocratic government to treat gay people like they are second class citizens then eh? Sounds like your so called Small government ideology is a lie than eh?
Like all people that pretend to be religious he just wants control over other people's lives.

I’m against tax breaks for gay marriages

Which means you are for big theocratic government that treats gay people as second class citizens. That is just the truth. If straight marriages get tax breaks, gay marriages should get tax breaks, unless you believe the government should actively favor certain people over others, which is often a form of tyranny.

There have been several dictatorships and unjust societies that thrived on favoring some people over others. Sounds like that is what you support, not small government.

Do you support them for straight marriages? Please explain your position.
 
Because I don’t agree that 2 members of the same sex meet the definition of marriage. While the definition of marriage indeed has changed I don’t acknowledge it.

Yet I have no issue if guys and girls want to have relationships with one another. Let freedom ring. But I refuse to entertain their unions as marriage.

Asked answered.

No need for explanation. It’s self evident.
 
Why would you support the government taking money away based on sexual orientation?
If they did which I don’t see happening it would be based on meeting the definition of marriage. Again, I don’t see that definition being changed.
