Most whites hundreds of years ago thought the negro to be an inferior sub-species fit for nothing but enslavement.
Obviously, the majority is always right, yep.
Wrong again. God has nothing to do with marriage. Traditional marriage is an economical and political agreement between two families or clans, meant to unite them in an alliance and strengthen both. It is also an effective way of institutionalizing sexuality, particularly female sexuality. Not because it is immoral, but because a daughter who gives birth outside wedlock is worthless in the transaction. Learn history.
Jedi Knight is correct. Marriage was a business/political transaction (and still is in some places), only recently has it become a symbol of love.
Also to me it seems that the modern equivalent of a dowery is that the bride's family traditionally pays for the wedding.
For an all powerful being God is awful sensitive to being mocked (or moked in this case).
I don't understadn why you care. Be offended by it, think its wrong whatever, but it just isn't any of your business.
That's a great idea! Fine people who think gay marriage is wrong then use the money to help support gay marriage! GENIUS!
Oh wait. You're an illiterate moron with the typing skills of a hermit crab. My mistake.
Jedi Knight has a very succinct and eloquent description of what marriage really was.
Often marriage was between an old man and a little girl, or between two children.
Regarding modern dowry; when I married my husband, my parents paid for the food, his parents paid for the drinks, and me and husband paid for the rest.
Three fairly equal shares of the party.
Assuming that your point is that you can find twice as many people against gay marriage as those that are for it, that's called the tyranny of the majority and in a free society it doesn't matter if 99.999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999% of all people agree that discriminating against a particular group is a good thing, it's still against the spirit of a free society and thus safeguards can be implemented even if nearly everyone hates them. It means that no matter how many people you convince that gay marriage is wrong, it is still a valid civil rights issue and should be considered despite what the majority may want. And I'll say the same thing when your religion becomes the minority as it continues to disintegrate in the future; yes, unlike you, I'll protect the rights of those I disagree with.
Ill bet we can find 2,000,000 people who know same sex marriage is immoral
Sure, also we can find 2,000,000 people who know that same sex marriage isn´t immoral.
I assume we can also find 2,000,000 people who say that jews (/christians/muslims/others) should be gassed and/or that [name of holy book] is literal true and all who don´t believe it should be converted by the sword
> Marriage is meant to be between a MAN and Woman. All else is a mokery of God and weakness to temptation of the flesh,
Ahhhhhh. So if you were married to a person of same sex, you'd be subject to the temptations of the flesh, which absolutely wouldn't occur if you were married to a person of opposite sex. Fascinating...
"I say we can fine 2 million that know its wrong and can say why." YES, fine them, please. And the proceeds you can donate to science. Good idea, eh? :P
"Marriage is meant to be between a MAN and Woman."
Where does it say this in your Bible? And why are you not trying to get Solomon and David removed from the Bible for having many, many wives and concubines?
"All else is a mokery of God and weakness to temptation of the flesh, they say they cam find a million who support gay marriage, I say we can fine 2 million that know its wrong and can say why.... LET SHOW THEM........."
You do that. Not that it matters.
Isn't that funny? I'm in that group that pisses you off so much. I just checked, and they have over 2,000,000 members. 2,176,307 right now, vs. 197 members of your piss-ass group. You got a long way to catch up.
"I say we can fine 2 million that know its wrong and can say why"
It doesn't matter how many people you "fine" who don't like gay marriage, the number of people who believe it's immoral doesn't really count. I bet during the 1860's you could find 2 million people who thought that slavery was OK, but that didn't make it right.
And I love how they lost a member, now down to 196. I think I'll keep watching that page to see if they ever get any more members.
And yet, you won't be able to find one person who can give a good reason why gay marriage should be illegal.
Please note that, from a legal standpoint, these are not good reasons:
1) The bible says my god hates gay people
2) My phony statistics suggest its a bad idea
3) I don't like it
Hmm...I'll let a Disney song take this one:
Mob:
Raise the flag!
Sing the song!
Here we come, we're fifty strong
And fifty Frenchmen can't be wrong
Let's kill the Beast!
Fine. So if I can find 2,000,000 people that feel you should be sacrificed to the volcano gods, will you go quietly?
"All else is a mokery of God..."
Exactly. ONE MAN and ONE WOMAN constitutes a marriage. Gays need to take a lesson from the bible, perhaps they could look at King Solomon .
> Marriage is meant to be between a MAN and Woman.
It's also meant to last forever / until the death of one participant.
Where's the hatespeech (Yes, that's what it is.) against divorce?
Homophobe.
Christianity does not have a monopoly on marriage (or morality for that matter). Marriage was hijacked in about the year 900AD. It was (and still often is) a way of passing wealth through families.
Now, it has evolved to mean a union between two loving adults. Why do you want to take freedom away? Do you hate freedom?!
Marriage is meant to be between a MAN and WOMAN and the FAMILY who is SELLING their DAUGHTER to the GROOM'S FAMILY. All else is a mokery of God and weakness to temptation of the flesh, they say they cam find a million who support marriage between two consenting adults who are in love with each other, I say we can fine 2 million that know its wrong and can say why.... LET SHOW THEM.........
Ill bet we can find 2,000,000 people who know being in a loving marriage is immoral,
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
