While your other arguments have some modicum of reason, this is pure moral posturing, and not worthy of reasonable debate.

Hm. I could swear we had threads on this issue in the past. Several ones.

Did they ever end nicely? well, one reaps as one sows. True for this forum. True for Western society.

Same debate, same arguments, no needed to run it all once again. I recommend we leave it to this reminder of our different positions.

So you give your arguments and then say it's been debated before and not worth debating again? If you truly feel that way, why make your arguments at all?

Eh, not half bad. I used to frequent a *ahem* certain well known and large forum dedicated to a *ahem* well known sim, where a certain moderator regularly took part in heated debates by posting his opinion on the subject and then locking the thread.

Not that I disagree with that assesment in general.

OOOOOOh this issue comes up in the States it's a human rights issue,,elsewhere it's so so,,as far as I'm concerned marriage is between a man and a women,,it has been that way for a couple of thousand years so what's the big deal with this, well I tell you what the big deal is, some body wants something for nothing,,I for one will not subsidize what goes on in ones bed room, you want to get your freak on, you should be able to pay for it yourself.

Clever.

Misusing the power bestowed upon him, but still, clever.

Exactly what is the something somebody is getting for nothing? Exactly how are you or anyone else being asked to pay for it?

Your post makes no sense.

Your post makes no sense.

Makes all the sense in the world, if they get marriage rights, then they get all the beneifits that married couples get like insurance, survior beneifits, tax breaks, and a few other things that I know nothing about since I'm not married, that's why they are fighting this, something for nothing...

So your problem is with all marriage. Okay.

This reminds me of this Liberal senator, who said that if we gave Gays rights, soon we'd be letting people marry animals.

He got fired.

We can't allow marriage equality. It will make it impossible for me to marry my girlfriend and for us to raise children.

I thought that was sarcasm. Maybe I'm wrong but that's the only way it makes sense.

I agree, and I thought it was obvious.
