Gay Marriage Debate - Philadelphia, PA

Gay people deserve the same rights as every other tax paying citizen in this country.

love is love

Equal protection under the law seems like a pretty straightforward concept.

Can't help but laugh every time someone says, "It's a sin!" Honey, not everyone shares your religion.

love is love.

I think people should be able to do whatever they want with themselves as long as they're not hurting others. First of all, I see nothing wrong with two adults who love each, so why can't we all have equal rights? Second, stopping gays from getting married isn't going to stop them from loving each other, so even if it's a religious thing(which is a bullshit reason anyway), it ain't gonna change anyone's sexual orientation. And isn't church and government supposed to be separate anyways? The people voting against this because of their 'religious' reasons, are biased and therefore shouldn't be voting

So is caps locks but I see you dont take that into account.

No valid reason it shouldn't be legal for gays to have civil marriage. No reason whatsoever. Religion has no place in this debate.

For equality!!!

gay marriage doesn't endanger traditional marriage, divorce does.

WTF America?

There is no legitimate reason to deny a group of people civil liberties

The United States is a secular nation. Your God has no place in my law.

Love is love, that is really all there is too it, weather it's a sin or not shouldn't matter, people say America is a christian nation but that is just plain out wrong, our constitution was written so that religion can stay out of politics

It shouldn't even be a question.

there should be no question of who should or should not be allowed to marry. gay marriage does not affect the marriages of men and women in any way. if i am a citizen of this country i deserve the same rights as anyone else.

Marriage is between a man and a woman and had always been, so why pervert it withwrongful weirdness and SIN. This is wrong on so many levels. Only in America would gods abomination be made exceptable in the name of politics. Queers are pedophiles. Check the record.

Love is love

Hang on to your hat, they are coming for you. If you don't speak up, you will find yourself living in a Theocracy ruled by the Christian Taliban.

Search; Dominionism, The Seven Mountains Mandate, Christian Reconstructionism

These people, and some of them are very powerful people believe that they NOT only have a right to rule this nation, but also a Mandate from God to rule this nation. They also believe that they MUST take over this country by ANY means necessary and place this nation under religious rule BEFORE Jesus comes back. Jesus WON'T come back until all the nations are ruled by religious governments,
Why these people believe Jesus needs their help is beyond me.

Search; Norwegian Domionist Slaughters Innocents

The Norwegian who killed 98 children was an Evangelical Christian Dominionist who wanted to punish their mainstream Christian parents, who were opposing the spread of Dominionism in Norway.
He had his own website, and police gathered the information on him when they seized his computer.

Let people love who they want!
