If gays get equal rights tomorrow what rights and freedoms do you lose?

Dude, you have been owned on this thread. Anything more is self inflicted.

How have I been owned in this thread? She basically ignored my argument and screamed no.
 
Lucky me! Let me know when you can answer those questions. I'm sorry that you can't support the things you claimed but that's not my fault. Good night princess.

God, you're an annoying bitch. I answered everything you asked of me.
 
Legally they are not the same thing, Its amazing you make a suggestion while at the same time knowing so little about the topic.

Well, I've got news for you, even if you trick the rest of the world into calling it "marriage", it won't be the same as hetero marriage, either. That is a physiological and a theological fact, because only man/woman marriage is marriage, and everything else is, well, everything else, and no amount of browbeating and court battles will change that.

Aaaaaand you're wrong. Too bad, so sad.

Marriage does not exist on a physiological level.
 
Wow, I totally missed this post where you didn't just scream naah.

Then I guess you should word your fallacy arguments better. I can quote you if you want. You said "The law forces people into trade."
The law does no such thing.

If you don't trade with someone for a reason that is deemed illegal you are open to lawsuit. That is saying pretty clearly that you can only deny trade for reasons deemed acceptable.

Yeah and people can go to jail for sex for certain reason too, good grief. Ignorant, disingenuous, obvious, trollish verbiage like that will probably get you added to ignore soon.

Ummm..ok? There is a pretty large difference between getting punished for forcing someone into something and being punished for not consenting. In fact, they are the exact opposite of each other.


No and the cases support me. On the topic in question nobody has been sued for refusing to sell to people.
Again saying people get sued for refusing service when in fact they are sued for illegal discrimination is like saying people are put in jail for making love when it was actually raped. HAHAHAHA
No illegal discrimination and there's no suit on these topics.

The difference between the two amounts to nothing. If people can not refuse to sell for certain reasons they are forced into commerce all the same.

Is there a "marriage gene"?
That would be biology, you said psychology. Google the difference.
How is marriage a physiological construct?
That's not what you said. Don't try and move the goal posts. You said:

Yes it does. Couples begin to mimic each-other's mannerisms, facial expressions, and vocabulary. Going through many of the events couples do, such as child birth, fosters a deep connection. There's all kinds of examples.

I didn't say psychology, I said physiology, because that's what it's just me said.

As far as mimicry, that often occurs with people who are in close contact for long periods of time, whether they are romantically involved or not.
 
....that's ok, I'll be tossing a few back today also :2wave:

"It's just me" is the handle of the poster to whom I was replying. Sure you didn't start early?

Names are capitalized for a reason ;) Don't go blaming your bad grammar on others.

Go look at his handle. It's not capitalized. But please, continue to deflect.
 
You're blaming your bad grammar on other people's bad grammar.

Still can't admit you screwed up. Can't say I'm surprised.

Come get me when you're done trolling.

I never do. I can, I just choose not to.What in the world would make you think marriage physically binds individuals?

I don't. I'm not the one who claimed it did.

OP asked what freedoms you would loose, if any, and you want to talk about physical connections...that has nothing to do with OP. What in the world are you talking about?

Go read the post I quoted before your little hijack and find out.

I did before I replied to you the first time. Physical connections, be they real or imagined, have nothing to do with OP. So what in the world are you two even talking about?

Ask him. He brought it up, I replied to it.

You see, on this thing called the Internet, tangential points are often raised and addressed. Happens all the time. Get the **** over it.
 
Yet another group that has to be treated as Special Snowflakes with extra legal protections most of us lack.

Exactly. It is written as follows, and all are protected by it along with the rest of the rather lengthy explanation rights and privileges.

The First Amendment provides that Congress make no law respecting an establishment of religion or prohibiting its free exercise. It protects freedom of speech, the press, assembly, and the right to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

So needless to say, LGBT doesn't want equal rights, for they are already granted. They want special rights and treatment.
 
I don't know on what propaganda site you read something so idiotic but that's not true at all. Its not even close to true. Also same sex civil unions and domestic partnerships are also banned in many states.

While I'm waiting for you to back up those statements, I'll respond to the question in the OP:

We have equal rights in California, thanks to the SCOTUS and not to the voters of this state. So far, I haven't lost any rights at all. Nothing, in fact, has changed for us heteros, nor do I expect it to.
