1500 species of animals have been observed practising homosexuality, but suddenly when humans do it "its a sin" and "unnatural" so. . . occurring in nature doesnt equal a natural development?


wut?

humans are smarter then animals and according to christianity (only bringing this up since you said sin) have the willpower to control themselves. (according to some denominational church doctrines)

Aannndddd that's where the church is just fucking dumb. It's not a choice to be gay, it's not like right before you are born you hit a button that says gay or straight. Jesus that just common sense

I'm not looking up anything catholic. Catholicism is bad news bears in my books. It is probably the religion I agree the least with.

they still discredit homosexuality as a naturally occurring phenomenon, yes  they label homosexual desires as tests by god. but they also claim that gays shouldn't have marriage rights because its against human nature. in the article below the author even categorizes homosexuality with murder and incest, yet even Catholics recognize circumstances where the taking of a life an acceptable and necessary aspect of human nature (second article for reference). it seems catholics have the inablity to relate to others, just because an individual person does not have homosexual desires doesn't mean that a minority of earth's population having homosexual desires is against human nature

in conclusion: homosex isn't against human nature, let gays marry, jesus was black, 'Murica

^ snowjob anyway ill answer this for you

homosexuality: catholics= fine with orientation, the sexy funtime part however, bad because in their views sex is for creating children, and meant for a man and a women. (not quite that simple but it sums it up)

and the only time when killling someone is okay is in self defense, or if you cannot keep that person away from others and the rest of the community of people safe.

I really don't mean to be a dick at all... But honestly, who gives a fuck? Let them be gay. Let them be lesbian. Let them be bisexual. Who cares? As long as its not affecting me I wouldn't care.

damn bullet points, i'm not sure i know do that, ill just use a dash
-the whole reason the Catholic church and other religious institutions care about the marriage issue is because they view homosexual relations as being sinful and against God's will
-you probably have witnessed this inadvertently, just didn't really recognize what it really was
-marriage is defined as something between only a man & a woman largely because of the Christian view of homosexuality, which means a religious belief is limiting the freedom of other individuals who do not share the same beliefs

so if you in particular don't care about sin, and now know that homosexuality isn't unnatural, why is marriage between a man and a woman, aside from not bearing chilren what separates a gay couple from a straight couple and why would it offend you to have marriage to be redefined?

Imagine your grandparents explaining that they were part of the mobs fighting against the civil rights movement in the 50s and 60s.

That's what these bigots are going to look like in a couple years.

how does having gay marriage illegal stop two people from loving each other? Im partially being serious and partially being the devils advocate, but the government can't stop me from loving someone any more/less

I think the point if a gay marriage is that there is no wife.

it doesn't offend me to have marriage redefined. i just don't see why two men (or two women) want to have the right to be married and then be equal to a man & woman who are married. it's just not the same thing.

it's like comparing black and white people, and saying that not only do black people want to have equal rights as white people, they want to be white as well. (or the other way around)

It's not like that at all. It's more like black people want to be able to sit wherever they want on the bus, and they should be allowed to.

ok well here is my final word

• i have nothing against gays
• i don't mind if they get married
• to me, true marriage is still something which only happens heterosexually, and it has nothing to do with equal rights

This. If marriage never existed would anything really change? You're still together and in love, I don't see a difference. Let people have their ceremonies that signify eternal love, but will most likely end in ten years anyways.

"True Marriage" are words, nothing more. The covenant of marriage is something that was perpetuated by the church for a few thousand years to ensure procreation to continue indoctrinating more people back into the church.

The "equal rights" of marriage are afforded by the government; tax breaks, health care regulation, dying wishes/estate care, etc. Anyone who is in love and making a commitment to another person, should be afforded all of the same 'rights' regardless of the gender of their loved one.

I also like how your whole "it isn't natural, people would die out because we're going against natural selection'' argument fell flat on its face - so now the words "true marriage" somehow mean heterosexual. They're words, literally, that's it.

Yeah if gay people want to get married so bad we should allow them under the condition that they can NEVER get divorced.
