Gay Marriage Debate - Watertown, WI

I feel marriage is for man and woman, I dont have to give any explanation more than that.

Exactly...no more needs to be said. My opinion and morals tell me being in a gay relationship is wrong, so is gay marriage.

What is wrong is your closed minded view of people and how they feel. You wouldn't oppose someone having heart surgery where they had a stint implanted would you? Is that natural? If people are happy and not creating a problem who are we to judge? I think Jesus had a motto that said something like that. Grow up, your latent homosexuality, and fear of people who are different is just a childish coping mechanism. You have nothing to fear but your own stupidity.

Who cares? Let everyone live. BP is more of a problem than homosexuality. Lets ban oil and live a happy healthy life gay or not.

Darrell, your only right about one thing, and thats BP, lol. I'm very open minded, and I'm also very committed to what I believe in my heart was and is God's intent for his people.

Can it be disputed that homosexuality is anything other than sexual perversion? Should perverse behavior be sanctioned by the government? No!

Can it be disputed that homosexuality is anything other than sexual perversion? You may dispute it, but that won't change the fact that it is. Should perverse behavior be sanctioned by the government? No!

Try buying a book called Human Sexuality, any book with that title by any author, and reading it. It will clearly explain the many differences between sexualities and paraphilias.

Meanwhile, the World Health Organization, the American Medical Association, the American Psychiatric Association, the American Psychological Association, the National Association of Social Workers, the American Counseling Association, and the American Academy of Pediatrics all say homosexuality is a normal variant of human sexuality in about 5% of the population.

everyone deserves to fine the love of their life and marry them. discrimination is not now and never will be someone to be proud of.

It's a matter of equality. If marriage were a purely religious institution, then atheists would not be able to marry.

even if you believe homosexuality is wrong, there is no legal basis for restricting marriage to heterosexual couples. It's ridiculous to deny them the legal rights associated with marriage, and the "civil unions" argument is the same as the "separate but equal" argument. Which is to say that it's pathetic.

everyone should be able to be happy and in love.

Not only am I a staunch supporter of gay and LGBTQ rights, but even for those who don't agree, why should it matter if they can or can't get married? It doesn't affect you at all.

Gay marriage is an ill for society, history tells us that when the society structure breaks down, so does everything else

not the way of the bible. ill pray for them.. so sad..

It is a legal institution (legal benefits, change of name, properties, etc) and therefore religion has no place in it.
