That&#039;s not surprising, part of their m.o. to create an illusion that there are many of them, another indication of their mental retardation, sick people for sure. Its called &quot;desperation&quot;, who else can they bash?  What they don&#039;t realize is its drawing attention to their obsession with gay sex, its so transparent.  Many gay bashers are often self-hating closet cases, when they resort to religion out of insecurity, inadequacy and unhappiness with their lot in life, an act of desperation if you will.  Its the first clue about who they are.  What an awful way to live though feeling so miserable that they try to make others feel bad about themselves so they come here to try to dehumanize us.  The sad part of it all is, they haven&#039;t even succeeded and they never will. They are only deluding themselves, goes to show how really mentally sick they are.</description>

The reason why they&#039;re so selective is that its about HATE, FEAR CONTROL and MONEY.   As they see more countries and states defeat them it disempowers them and they know it, they know they&#039;re losing the battle.  Why do you think they come here to vent? They have no other audience. Just look at the desperation of the rottweiler in the Vatican. It has to fly off to third world countries to try to shore up new converts because its in serious decline in Europe and elsewhere and not having any luck either.  They&#039;re all in decline, the world is on to them, they&#039;re irrelevant, anachronistic and nothing more than a bunch of psychotic parasites that will eventually self-destruct, they all do eventually. The more hatred they spew, the more they alienate themselves.  That&#039;s why the GOP lost dismally in 2008.</description>

		<description>@&lt;a href=&quot;#comment-192045&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;schlukitz&lt;/a&gt;: It is hard to believe the same people that claim to live by the scripture have the nerve to pretend gays are less than them. The link you posted was disgusting, I do not understand how these &quot;christians&quot; can be so selective with &quot;their bible&quot;! All the posters against marriage equality should read the link below.

I&#039;ve always maintained that incest is ok according to the book of magic and throw it right back at them.  Just look at the Adam &amp; Eve fairy tale as one example.  The religious cultists say they believe in scripture when it comes to the Leviticus mantra they used against us (never spoken by their god but by MEN); they also believe that Adam &amp; Eve were the first parents who begat children.  Well now, doesn&#039;t that beg the question....how did the planet become populated using that creationist shit and and by the way, they also believe the world is only 6,000 years old, go figure. Science is always wrong of course. The obvious conclusion is that Adam &amp; Eve must have had incest with their own children and their children with one another.  Their god didn&#039;t condemn it either....&quot;and god saw that it was good&quot;.  Also, there was NO marriage ceremony peformed in the old testament either and if there were, what was the ritual, who performed it? 

Amazing how these fucktards in here deliberately avoid biblical incest when confronted, they&#039;ll come up with some dumb excuse to justify it, but in the final analysis, they really can&#039;t answer it, but they must accept it &quot;because its in the scripture&quot;. Can you believe that marrying one&#039;s first straight cousin, a blood relative is not considered incest in many states and countries?   How fucked up is that?  Maybe that accounts for the mind blowing number of religious cultists and their retarded mentality....clearly signs of inbreeding and other forms of degeneracy that they are renowned for.</description>

		<description>Some of the posters herein remind me of the rabid crowds of gay people at one of the Southern California Proposition 8 protests.

I, an African-American gay male, went with friends to vent our frustration at Proposition 8&#039;s outcome.  Upon arriving at the protest site, imagine my surprise at angry white gays hurling the &quot;N&quot; bomb my way.

They were powerful angry and required targets for their angst.  Never mind that I was a friend and a support to their (and my) cause. They did not recognize me as such.  As far as many were concerned I was a black voter who voted for Prop 8.

The anger is palpable in some of the posted comments.

Though most of you do not regard him as such, I do think Barack Obama is a friend to gay people. I believe that politics and the nature of our problem juxtaposed against the backdrop of our country&#039;s conservative religious bent makes it more difficult - not less.  

I also am willing to cut Obama some slack - he has only been in office for 7 months and has more critical issues to deal with than any other POTUS in recent memory.  

If you really don&#039;t like Obama - vote for his Republican challenger next election.  If you think you have it bad now - and you don&#039;t - imagine the sort of support you would get from a Republican.</description>

She&#039;s probably too ugly or totally incapable, or both.  I pity any kids she may have, better they were aborted than to be corrupted and violated by religious cultism.  Lets hope she miscarries or is infertile, there&#039;s enough of these ignorant breeders to go around as it is without bringing more into the world.</description>

&lt;i&gt;you fucking hypocrite!&lt;/i&gt;

Somehow, I suspect that is DuttyBarb&#039;s problem.

She&#039;s NOT getting any fucking...and that can make one real bitter! HeeHee

Ruth Westheimer, the famous sex-therapist, said it best when she stated, &quot;People who are enjoying a healthy sex-life, could care less what other people are doing in their beds.&quot;

Makes perfect sense to me!</description>

		<description>Duttybarb.......if marriage is solely an religious institution, why does civil marriage exist and why do secular states issue civil marriage licenses, why aren&#039;t your cults issuing them?  Religious marriages should not be on the receiving end of federal benefits either, maybe that&#039;s something that should be looked into aside from removing tax-exemption from the parasitical cults that you subscribe to.

Let me educate you on something.  This is a classic example of what civil marriage is and what religious marriage isn&#039;t. In France among others....where there is NO state religion although catholicism dominates, a religious marriage is NOT recognized by the state.  Couples have to have a civil marriage ceremony performed usually by the mayor or another secular person so designated by the government.  If a couple wants a religious component, they are free to run to their church to have it SOLEMNIZED and its not mandatory or contingent on a state issued marriage license either.  The civil marriage ceremony is the legal marriage, not the religious.  Your cults don&#039;t own marriage and they never will nor do they have any right to dictate who can and cannot marry in a secular society.  Ours is not a theocracy, the sooner you accept that the better.  

Our is not a lifestyle, but yours is since you choose religion, learned behavior through indoctrination.  Nobody comes into this world religious.  Its nothing more, in most cases, than a mental illness if you will.  You did not choose to be straight, assuming you are, nor do we choose to be gay.  Get over it, get used to it. Stop judging, denigrating, dehumanizing, the most unchristian behavior if ever.  Jesus Christ didn&#039;t do any of that nor did he condemn us for who we are.

You need to get your own house in order....read www.fallwell.com and maybe you&#039;ll realize that you don&#039;t live by scripture as you pretend to do, you fucking hypocrite!</description>

<p>You need to get your own house in order&#8230;.read <a href="http://www.fallwell.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.fallwell.com</a> and maybe you&#8217;ll realize that you don&#8217;t live by scripture as you pretend to do, you fucking hypocrite!</p>

Umm...the name is Schlukitz, dear, not Schultz, as in Dutch! Guess reading&#039;s not one of your accomplished skills.

&lt;i&gt;i might as well marry my dog and be done with it&quot;.&lt;/i&gt;

If he (or she) will have you, I&#039;d say &quot;Go for it&quot;.  You say it like it is a bad thing. ;P

&lt;i&gt;SHAME ON ALL OF YOU!!!!&lt;/i&gt;

Aw...we&#039;ve had more of that dumped on us than we can possibly use.  Keep it, hon.  You need it more than us!

&lt;i&gt;Marriage is a religious institution&lt;/I&gt;

Big, fat, egregious lie!  Marriage existed long before you Christers came along and muscled you way into it.  Y&#039;all saw how much money could be made off it, in addition to the two collection plates at Sunday morning mass, the donations and the tything.  Christianity is a business, girlfriend...a big one at that...and tax free to boot!  I feel for you, but I just can&#039;t seem to reach you.

&lt;i&gt;The same God that says gay lifestyle is an abomination is the same one you claim wants you to enter this most sacred union. Its laughable.&lt;/I&gt;

Another big, fat lie!  We never asked for or insisted that the church or your sky daddy should marry us.  You&#039;re the only one twisting the facts here.  We&#039;ll be very happy with being able to marry before a Justice of the Peace or any other secular person so empowered by the State.  YOu can keep your religious hokus pocus.  We don&#039;t want or need it.  Just the rights, Ma&#039;am.  Just the rights.  Oh, and the benefits we pay for but which YOU get exclusively.  Not nice at all!  I wonder what your sky daddy thinks of stealing money out of the pockets of the very people that you hate and condemn and refuse to let have their equal rights?

&lt;i&gt;Marriage has lost its fire thanks to people like gays that spread this nonsense around.&lt;/i&gt;

Yep.  It&#039;s the fault of the gays that your hubbys can&#039;t keep it in their pants and the women folks can&#039;t keep their legs closed.  &quot;The gehys made &#039;em do it&quot;.  You and your sort apparently think we are the devil, because that is what you used to say about him...&quot;The devil made me do it&quot;.  Poor, innocent victims of circumstance.  The world is so cruel, isn&#039;t it?

Oh, and good luck with the dog thing.  I hear that straights get into beastiality too.  Big time.</description>

		<description>Obama just reversed his position on needle exchange programs.  He promised during his campaign that he would not ban these programs, now he calls for a ban in his budget.  Check out the story at Americablog or Huffington Post.

		<description>@Bill, @Schultz @ Raymond,

I find it utterly, thoroughly saddens me that u compare your right to marry to the sins committed in the name of marriage. Spousal abuse, cheating, etc is not a joke. Its not something to slap your knees and say...darn, and those straights think they have a right to marriage. Look how they are messing it up..i might as well marry my dog and be done with it&quot;. 

SHAME ON ALL OF YOU!!!!

Marriage is a religious institution...dont twist facts to win this fight(u guys have been doing that a lot). The idea of marriage is not the same as a real, spiritual union between two souls before God. Marriage is making a formal promise before God that two people will leave together under the sanctity of His Divine love and laws. Marriage is a celebration of love...that is the way God intended it to be. GET A BIBLE. See all the spiritual blessings that await people who are really married.

I mean look at all the signs..spousal cheating, battery, child abuse...cmon! Those are the exact outcomes of non spiritual marriage. Anyone who can do that to a spouse that you stood before God to promise to be faithful and love is a hypocrite and a liar and God will deal with such people.

Gays want the right to something that ironically does not apply to them. It is ridiculous. The same God that says gay lifestyle is an abomination is the same one you claim wants you to enter this most sacred union. Its laughable.

Civil marriage is also stupid. I mean is a minister or a justice of peace not present in a civil marriage union. What do you think he is there for??? To ensure you sign the document of marraige correctly???(are u kidding me). I dont presume to judge why an atheist would want to marry. That is for God to judge and deal with. 

Marriage has lost its fire thanks to people like gays that spread this nonsense around. I want you to have benefits and care from the government. But Marriage..true marriage can never be yours. That spiritual connection is never going to come to you and if it were me....i would rather be single than have a false, Godless union just to prove to straights that i could.

OH BTW...America is waking up, the gay marriage support is actually dropping..so the &quot;cults&quot; really are working arent they, Bill?!</description>

		<description>@&lt;a href=&quot;#comment-191532&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Raquel&lt;/a&gt;: 

First off, there&#039;s nothing natural about christianity or the bible insofar as it characterizes people.  So the natural gender roles you find in there call for the stoning of women who are infaithful to their husbands, and the killing of unruly children to appease the western blood good.  So natural gender roles preclude gay marriage?  LMAO!  Natural gender roles exist?  You won&#039;t be justifying spousal abuse, nor the sexism that underpins it on natural gender roles--nor will you find them in the bible.

SO if you can&#039;t justify spousal abuse and sexism with natural gender roles, you can&#039;t justify homophobia with it, either.  And you certainly can&#039;t justify denying gay marriage based on some arbitrary little fiction your fevered, insane brain cooked up in a fit of antigay rage that corresponds to your nonunderstanding of &quot;gender roles&quot;.</description>

		<description>Every single one of you dimwits only proved what I have come to believe about you. Fuck the entire hypocritical oh so tolerant gay community... full of assholes... with the exception of Dennis of course (and maybe a couple of others).

Stop whining and look at the mirror
I&#039;m not the bigot.

You are pathetic.

I&#039;m SICK of the gay community... hyper sexualization, insane politics including arrogant good for nothing rabid gay activists, victim mentality, HATRED from GAYS to GAYS (yes my dear I have SEEN the hatred you have AMIDST your own... you eat your own) and so much more.

Now I know why I am against the oxymoron &#039;&#039;gay marriage&#039;&#039;.
Because of piece of shit like you.

Sick most of you.
Just sick.

If you do NOT show tolerance and love toward those of a different opinion (like being against gay marriage) then you will perish. Stop with the stereotypes that religious people hate you. They don&#039;t. Your portrayal of religion (and much more) is why I am no longer an agnostic secular humanist in fact.

Mark my words... straights/heteros worldwide can only tolerate so much before they see the dogs you all are.

I was once supportive of &#039;&#039;gay marriage&#039;&#039;.
No more.

I&#039;m supportive of the minority within the minority.
The good gays.

The rest of you? I don&#039;t give a shit. A genocide would be even appropriate if things go really really bad. The few good hearted gays I met is why I still am not hateful of all gays and I still have hope for them... because they are nothing like you.

Because they are kind and only want integration. Religious and non religious alike. Not segregation. They are not out of their minds like you.

Now leave me alone to my &#039;&#039;crazy bigotry&#039;&#039; and being some sort of a spy on this website like you all deem to see. I am not.

But of course you will keep on with your retardness.
I&#039;m through with this page.

Goodbye.</description>

<p>Now leave me alone to my &#8221;crazy bigotry&#8221; and being some sort of a spy on this website like you all deem to see. I am not.</p>
<p>But of course you will keep on with your retardness.<br />
I&#8217;m through with this page.</p>
<p>Goodbye.</p>

Bill, well said and thank you!  It makes you wonder why halfwits like Naomi and Raquel, among others seek out gay blogsites.  To me it seems like an act of desperation, they have nobody else they can rant and spew their venom at because they don&#039;t have an audience in the larger society. Agitate they do, but in the end, they lose because they&#039;re outnumbered by society at large, not just us. Their desperation is evidence that they&#039;re fast losing the cultural war and that we&#039;re winning, slowly but surely.  Its inevitable and they know it.  Its going to overwhelm them sooner, rather than later. They&#039;re irrelevant to 21st century civilization, aberrations if you will, unfortunate accidents of nature, a dying breed, and that&#039;s a good thing.</description>

		<description>Religion is superstition, ignorance and silliness. It&#039;s also humankinds greatest tragedy. It has no redeeming features. 

Many of the grotesqueries who profess christer beliefs are simply parroting the howling madness of the Dark Ages in Europe. 
Why do creatures like Naomi and Raquel imagine that they&#039;d be able to influence sane people? It&#039;s an example of their ignorace of the real world that they&#039;d even try. 

The left or socialist view of marriage is that the government 
should have minimal interest in partnering except for defending the rights of women and the welfare of children. And we think
that religious cults should be banned from any sort of interference in partnering. Tt’s up to partners to call the shots and the only other interested party is the state which has an interest in protecting women and children. Everyone, &lt;b&gt;partnered or not&lt;/b&gt;, gay or straight, should have the same rights, tax privileges and etc.   

Partnering arrangements should be easy to get in and out of. While people should be held strictly accountable for the welfare of children in their care, society has to accept ultimate responsibly for their welfare. Part of that is mandatory training in parenting skills. Another is to encourage everyone to parent all children. Society should insure that all children have decent housing, good medical care and good nutrition. 

Sooner or later these kinds of revolutionary social goals will be the norm. In the meantime if GLBT folks want to get married most of us will continue to encourage and fight for them just as we fight for all the parts of our agenda and all the segments of our communities.</description>

Say, Raquel? My parents are atheists. Why were they allowed to marry?

Oh, I remember! because it&#039;s a CIVIL ceremony and license. No church or priest needed.</description>

		<description>Raquel and Naomi: The only thing , in sincerity ,that I can make of your carrying on is that &quot;being as one&quot; means that you had, or want an orgasm with a man an think that is special.  Gay people have them too-that may come as a suprise.

I support Civil Unions because I can&#039;t imagine why on earth any sane gay person would want to bonkers be like you two.

Thanks for the object lesson!</description>

		<description>Oh and Robert NYC you remind me why I am no longer an agnostic nor a secular humanist... secular humanism is so high in itself with &#039;&#039;scientific reasoning&#039;&#039;, errors and &#039;rationality&#039; (moral relativism and so much more) that it makes me sick... go take a hike

I&#039;m against &#039;&#039;gay marriage&#039;&#039; and &#039;&#039;gay adoption&#039;&#039; too... am I &#039;homophobic&#039; now??? I don&#039;t hate gays

I support the right for gays to live without harassment
To be together in public
To work without prejudice
To visit their loves ones in the hospital
The right to inheret anything from partners or family in case of death

I believe there should be two things the government should do... one keep marriage with Husband &amp; Wife in combination with religion... second the government should take ALL of the benefits in marriage and give it to gays in another union (like a civil union except with ALL of the marriage benefits)

Btw you forgot one HUGE thing: She agrees that the Church has been a tad harsh toward gays!

Now now how could you miss that???
Also I agree with n38

&#039;&#039; Dennis 
blah, blah, fucking screeching whining, blah…

&quot;I think it&#039;s clear that they feel victimized in fairly powerful ways, and they are often hurt not just by certain teachings of the Catholic Church, but by the Christian faith generally.&quot;

Speaking directly to the Church, He&#039;s telling the church they have hurt us, in many denominations, in powerful ways…before a meeting with the pope (=fucktard!). What other president has said something more direct against the harmful effects of discriminatory religious dogma? NAME IT, go ahead, name when a president has called out Christianity&#039;s harmful effect on gays. When did it happen? When? Screech, whine, bitch, complain…

What&#039;s he supposed to say in the REAL WORLD? (The real world being a concept many Queerty posters are clearly challenged at engaging with) Hail Satan? Would that please you? Or, Fuck every last Christian American and your bullshit belief system? Is that what you expect the president to say to &quot;defend&quot; your gay honor? Would insulting Christians directly bring about our rights more quickly? Would having a &#039;Bruno&#039; as president satisfy your constant need for gay affirmation and advocacy? Or an athiest? Good luck waiting on your first atheist president, that&#039;ll happen real soon. (= never.) Yes, he &quot;threw them a bone&quot; reminding them he&#039;s a Christian as well, AND called them out in a non-confrontational manner, reminding them that Christian teachings have caused hurt and harm to LGBT persons.

Bunch of screeching idiotic fuctards here…done with this goddamn site today. &#039;&#039;

Perhaps the only other gay I have respect for in this page... bunch of whinners you are the rest of you... we all know you have been oppressed for a long time but this is 2009 and you have far more freedom than most older gays have had in their lifetimes... remember that, be thankful and just shut up

Better yet grow up</description>

		<description>Robert NYC - You are truly PATHETIC... IDIOT
People like you DESERVE to be SLAPPED

Didn&#039;t you hear Naomi??? People like you is why I moved out of S.F. and rarely communicate with the gay community anymore... hypocrites, so called &#039;tolerants&#039;, victim mentality, hatred of gays toward other gays within yourselves and most of all ASSHOLES

&#039;&#039; My point is that &quot;They shall become one flesh&quot;

Many Christians forget that and concentrate on children… great point (offspring) but that is not marriage entirely

Marriage is unity
Marriage is natural gender roles
Marriage is when two become one &#039;&#039;

How could you miss that?
Another gay man so far down in his own &#039;&#039;tolerance&#039;&#039; that he is blinded by it

Naomi said &#039;&#039;Two shall become one flesh&#039;&#039; is the main point and Christians often forget that and concentrate on the second main point (which is offspring)</description>

Naomi, NO religious cult owns marriage, it never has and it NEVER will.   If one of your reasons is to deny gay people marriage based on the procreation factor...then by the same token, you must deny marriage to straight couples who are childless either by choice or because they are physically incapable.  CIVIL MARRIAGE has NOTHING to do with religion, NO religious ceremony, NO deity invoked. The civil ceremony does not state that &quot;the two become one&quot; either.  The secular STATE (Government) issues marriage licenses and as such they do not mandate procreation as a reason for their issuance.  You are entitled to your religious views, but don&#039;t use them to interfere with or discriminate against us.    How would you like it if gays worldwide started a movement to ban religious marriage, preventing you from having a religious ceremony using the same argument in reverse?  Until you&#039;ve walked in our shoes for a day, keep your beliefs out of politics and in your home where they belong and please stop using the bible to justify your beliefs.   You would do well to consult the following website and take a moment to reflect on the other things what scripture says, things that most of you, yourself included do not live or abide by.  Stop the hypocrisy and bigotry, please.

How would you like it if gays worldwide started a movement to ban religious marriage, preventing you from having a religious ceremony using the same argument in reverse?  Until you&#8217;ve walked in our shoes for a day, keep your beliefs out of politics and in your home where they belong and please stop using the bible to justify your beliefs.   You would do well to consult the following website and take a moment to reflect on the other things what scripture says, things that most of you, yourself included do not live or abide by.  Stop the hypocrisy and bigotry, please.</p>

		<description>Thanks for all the comments re my comment! 

Interesting (but not surprising) how not one single comment homed-in on the crux of the matter, Barry Soetoro&#039;s BIRTH CERTIFICATE and being an USURPER who sends American boys to invade foreign lands to kill other boys etc.! It says a lot about the morals of the people who bothered to comment here!

After all, if Barry, as a foreigner, could run for president of the bankrupt USA why not Arnold? The same right for all I say. What makes Barry so special? Birth certificate sealed, school records sealed, no 9/11 investigation and on and on... REAL CHANGE there!!!!

To the dumbo who mouthed-off about the &#039;first African-American president&#039;: Barry is the first AFRICAN-CAUCASIAN mixed race USURPER president! His mother was as WHITE as it gets! No African in Africa would call Barry an African (I know, I have lived in Africa for decades, with millions of mixed-race people). 

Lastly, to the person who thinks Barry has brought some sort of respectability re the US to the world: I&#039;m laughing my head off! 

People in Europe (where I&#039;m from) LAUGHING about the *change* he promised and are quite AWARE that he is controlled by puppeteers and cannot stand on his own two feet (even with autocue gadgets). He is a huge fraud and embarrassment to what is left of the US and if it were not for people like Dr Ron Paul etc. we Europeans might think that all your &#039;Americans&#039; live on another planet, never mind continent. Don&#039;t believe the &#039;we love Obama&#039; crap you see on your propaganda TV stations. It&#039;s FAKE!

If the man is for real we would like to SEE his credentials! SIMPLE! 

UNMASK THE USURPER!

		<description>Hello there... I&#039;m not a liberal and I&#039;m not American

I&#039;m a Christian woman from a Third World African country (as hard as it is for you to believe... and neither am I poor anymore... I&#039;m middle classed and I have this computer)

I have heard of Obama and watched his inauguration on TV... I disagree with his views and I&#039;m a conservative (paleo conservative like Ron Paul for example... NOT neo conservative like George W. Bush even though I don&#039;t necessarily hate Bush that much)

I didn&#039;t care much for gays in the past (if you want to know my parents and all of my family converted to Christianity... some like my father, a pagan, and others either a nominal Christian agnostic like my mother... my mother is not African like my father... she is Russian and came working here...) and to shock you even I didn&#039;t know what &#039;&#039;gay&#039;&#039; meant until 17 even though I have read the Bible entirely (Sodom &amp; Gomorrah,etc) to break your stereotype... I didn&#039;t care for gays that much and neither did I know that some Scandinavian countries legalized &#039;&#039;gay marriage&#039;&#039; (I thought it was a clown or acrobatic ceremony at first no offense...)

I have heard of Christian extremists in USA (Wesboro Baptist church,etc) and falsehood (prosperity gospel, and seeing things on www.alittleleaven.com, etc)

Then I heard of Carrie Prejean on Miss USA and the question incident... I started to research further

I have read everything... I have chatted up with gays, straights, bissexuals, etc

I have seen gay/lesbian pornography, gay cinema and read a few gay literature... I have talked to gays on the Internet whom have been surprised by me... to tell you the truth I was once aroused by gay/lesbian pornography but now it is nill since it has entered my mainstream and I will never seen Hentai ever again... I have tried anal sex and I dislike it greatly... I even read those accounts on Ancient Greece and Rome (I no longer believe them to be gay nor straight but without labels and touching any gender they pleased even though they had great segregation of the sexes/genders in some areas)

I heard of Prop 8 and I was affected... I didn&#039;t like the aftermath of some rabid gay activists hitting on their opponents afterwards but I don&#039;t think the Mormons were completely innocent either

Anyways I want to talk about Obama... even though I disagree with him on the Economy, abortion,etc I admire his bluntness

He told that the Church has done damage to gays... I think he is right

I want many here to understand that Christians worldwide, particulary young ones like me, (Africa, Asia, Latin America, etc) are not all with &#039;&#039;bigotry&#039;&#039;... some are but many are not

In your eyes &#039;&#039;fundamentalism&#039;&#039; is to be against gay marriage... that I do not see

Extremism is when one kills another person when all does not call for extremism... I read an article of a man in Europe killing a Muslim woman because of her hijab in court... though I greatly disagree with Islam and find it errorous (Koran, Hadith, etc) I saw that as barbaric

I think that gays deserve civil unions and not to be discriminated in the workplace without a doubt... I support that

But two things I cannot desist... I will not tolerate childishness... I&#039;m only a young Christian woman and perhaps I&#039;m not the one to point but no matter... why if a person is against &#039;&#039;gay&#039;&#039; marriage they are against gay rights???

&#039;&#039;Gay&#039;&#039; marriage is not gay rights
I actually see it as bad for both sides of the camp

Gays do not need to conform to &#039;&#039;heterosexual standards&#039;&#039;
Religious people do not need to touch this tradition ordained by God himself

I&#039;m sorry but I find &#039;&#039;gay marriage&#039;&#039; and &#039;&#039;gay families&#039;&#039; to be odd

Marriage is the &#039;&#039;Rainbow&#039;&#039;... the Rainbow does not belong to gay or Christians... it belongs to God... he put it as a promise not to destroy the earth at the Ark of Noah

Marriage is suppose to be the unity of humanity
Of Men &amp; Women

To me gay marriage is segregation... gay marriage is not diverse in the least at the core... the only diversity it has is that it is different from straights/heteros

I look at those two boxes high in this &#039;Queerty&#039; page
&#039;Except that gay one agenda&#039;

Two men
Two women

I shudder... not because I hate gays (what kind of &#039;&#039;homophobic&#039;&#039; Christian talks to gays, reads their stories, goes around dialoguing with them and has watched gay porn and gay movies and admits it???) but because this ideal is not suppose to be the ideal for society

Some of you may start making jokes about straight men leaving women for men or straight women leaving men for women if gay marriage gets legalized but you know what? You&#039;re the idiot... making up things for your own amusement and avoidance of this issue and seriousness

You didn&#039;t get it when I said that I saw segregation in gay marriage and I NEVER said that I expected straights to leave their loves if gay marriage gets legalized

That is not the point

My point is that &#039;&#039;They shall become one flesh&#039;&#039;

Many Christians forget that and concentrate on children... great point (offspring) but that is not marriage entirely

Marriage is unity
Marriage is natural gender roles
Marriage is when two become one

No matter how nice gays are I can and will never see them in that light... &#039;&#039;They shall become on flesh&#039;&#039;

It&#039;s not &#039;&#039;Husband &amp; Husband&#039;&#039;
It&#039;s not &#039;&#039;Wife &amp; Wife&#039;&#039;
It&#039;s not &#039;&#039;Party A &amp; Party B&#039;&#039;
It&#039;s not &#039;&#039;Progenitor A &amp; Progenitor B&#039;&#039;

It&#039;s One man and One woman
Man &amp; Woman
Husband &amp; Wife

Sun &amp; Moon
Water &amp; Fire
Black &amp; White
Ying &amp; Yang

If that is &#039;&#039;bigotry&#039;&#039; (and not the true bigotry I see like killing gays and denying the right to work simply for being gay or getting thrown out of a hospital if somebody they like is dying) then so be it

Gays please understand... Marriage will never be gay
Marriage has never been straight either

Marriage is the Rainbow
And in the rainbow we need both men and women to come in
Not just one gender

Marriage is also the bedrock of society
I know this sounds stupid... I never expect gays really to believe in (&#039;traditional&#039;) Marriage

I respect Obama&#039;s scorning of harness toward gays
But I don&#039;t respect whining gays like you whom push &#039;&#039;gay marriage&#039;&#039;

It&#039;s not because I hate you... it&#039;s because I believe in the truth... the truth is that &#039;&#039;gay marriage&#039;&#039; will never be accepted in the eyes of God (or nature/humanity if your an atheist/agnostic, etc... yes... I have seen atheism/agnosticm/pantheism/etc in the past few years... my own mother was a tad agnostic herself beforehand)

And I&#039;m a young Christian woman... according to surveys Christians (particulary youth like me) are becoming more liberal... I don&#039;t see that... we are just becoming more clear eyed and sane worldwide after the travesty that hit with those extremist Christians (and eventually ruined the Republican party)

Neither are we all hiding in our churches... Christians these days are not what you seem to think... we are seeing these blogs, have seen certain porn videos, have talked, etc... we are more &#039;&#039;experienced&#039;&#039; yet traditional

Overall this is my message:

I support Obama on his direction toward the hurt it has done to you

I greatly disagree that marriage has to &#039;&#039;turn gay&#039;&#039; or gets you equality... I know what you desire... I have seen the rights that marriage has... instead of going after &#039;&#039;gay marriage&#039;&#039; take the rights out of marriage and extend it to yourself

And no just because of divorce, single motherhood, adultery, polyamory, feminism, single fatherhood, step families, etc does it validate &#039;&#039;gay marriage&#039;&#039;

I have read also pathetic articles like &#039;&#039;Gays better at relationships than straights&#039;&#039;... made me puke... almost as bad as saying that all gays are promiscuous

Gay marriage to me would be the last bullet to the head after long long beating to marriage because of divorce, etc (to me gay marriage is only the response to so many wrong doings done in the past... if none of divorce, single motherhood, etc was made then &#039;gay marriage&#039; would never appear)... marriage is already in a bad condition in USA... why make it worse?

Look at Scandinavia sadly... marriage there is dead

Obama you go man...
You are doing the right thing (and I don&#039;t mean abortion...)

Have a great time everyone
Goodbye</description>

SM, Dennis, and others like you: why this &#039;never speak ill of the King&#039; attitude? For one, not everyone is going to read these negative posts and agree, and secondly, I find the ability to disagree with the president on something and be able to write and publish it- well, American.</description>

SM, Dennis, and others like you: why this &#8216;never speak ill of the King&#8217; attitude? For one, not everyone is going to read these negative posts and agree, and secondly, I find the ability to disagree with the president on something and be able to write and publish it- well, American.</p>
