Can someone please tell me a reason why people shouldnt be able to chose who they want to marry? Gay or not WTF is the difference I think its so stupid that people are actually arguing that they cant marry guys or girls or w.e they want. And even if it is a church thing doesnt America have the seperation of church and power? So why dont the gays go of and make a religion and say that being straight is wrong. That would be stopping to thier level but I think it would get the point across.
Why do we still debate this I think its pretty clear that if people cant chose who they want to marry then doesnt that mean that not everyone is born equal?

I understand what you're saying and agree with most of it. I think we are a country that says that we stand for justice and EQUALLITY but we don't follow through. A civil union is not a big deal. It won't make more people homosexual or corrupt our society, cause our society is already corrupt. I am a Christian to let you know. And I believe by not letting homosexuals marry is not going to change who they think they are. So like I said, it's not a big deal. America, start walking the walk!Can someone please tell me a reason why people shouldnt be able to chose who they want to marry?

Well, the thing you have to understand is that marriage is not an inherent right. It isn't something that government must allow people to do, because marriage itself-- in the sense of legally-recognized marriage-- is an agreement with the State that comes with specific legal benefits. It isn't "a church thing", because churches are allowed to sanction marriages however they see fit; many churches do, in fact, perform marriage ceremonies for same-sex couples.
No it is not. It is an ageement between 2 people. The state just oversees it.

Two people may engage in serious relationship, each may, through civil union, grant power of attorney or will financial benefits.Ummm well I dont see a reason. If 2 people that want to engage in a serious relationship are denied because they are both guys or girls.... Thats not equal but maybe there is something I am missing.

If it were not an agreement with the State, then why does the State extend special privileges to the parties of the agreement? Why, and under what authority, does the State limit the agreement to two parties with a specified minimum distance between bloodlines?
Two people becoming legally married provokes a number of changes in the way the law is applied to them; marriage may or may not change the relationship between those two people, but it definitely and formally changes their relationship with the State.
But those changes mostly involve them sharing their assets and such.
