Honjii, I know I’m late to your discussion but wanted to say I totally agree. Believe it or not, not all Republicans are against gay marriage. Some – like me – think it’s absurd that it is even an issue open for debate. I hate politicians. They polarize these issues and give everyone the impression that if you think this way, you’re a Democrat and if you think that way, you’re a Republican. I am a fiscal conservative but believe in individual rights. Most of the Republicans I know are like that, too. In fact the majority (more than 70%) of Republicans are pro-choice.

Anyway, nicely written piece.

personally, i think that it isnt right to judge people based on their sexuality or any other reason for that matter.
i mean come on america, WAKE UP!! think abuot it, if most of america was filled with gay people, and then straight people were getting judged, how well would that look? every single person on this planet is entirely equal! we all live and we all die.
and maybe that’s what america needs to think about.

Tom,
I’m impressed. I’ve never run across anyone who had knowledge of

every society in the history of the world

Should we take your word for it? Do you have some credentials in this area?

Why must marriage between a man and a woman be protected? If we allow same sex marriage, how does this affect you?

By the way, is that John Wayne as your avatar? That could be a clue as to how you would answer my questions.

I just want to point out that “gay marriage” is legal. They can get married today without any problems – but it must be to the opposite sex. There is no discrimination on this matter in our country. Same sex marriage is what is illegal. The institution of marriage between one man and one woman is foundational to every society in the history of the world and must be protected.

I think that gay marriage shouldn’t be an issue at all. Garling Gauge has an interesting take on it that changes the way I thought of it:

Nikola,

Do you think polygamic marriages should be legal (sanctioned by law) as well

If you are referring to the polygamists that have made the news over the last couple of years, that believe in forced marriages of underaged girls…then absolutely not. But if consenting adults (with all parties in agreement)want to enter into a plural or other non-traditional marriage, why not? If two men and I decide we want to marry how does this affect you?

You are soooo right!
it is a shame that one even has to talk about it.
Being homosexual is a most natural thing and to only allow SOME people to get married but not others is a violation of equal rights, the constitution, and, and, and.
Outlaw religion and these things hopefully won’t happen anymore.
