First topic message reminder :

I know this can be a touchy subject for a lot of people. Please take this topic completely seriously and respond with your reasoning as to WHY you think it should be or should not be legal. Please respect other's opinions and do use personal attacks as a way of discussion.

:Also doing things cause of the catfishing going on with you fegs. <.<

Apparently in the US 36 states allow gay marriage. Personally I dislike the term gay marriage, since it is just marriage between two people, but it is needed for this discussion. I cannot wait for the day that all 50 allow it. Marriage is a basic human right and I feel like we need to get with the times here. We should be over this oppression and everyone should be treated equally with equal rights.

I know, a lot of those who are against it will say that it is against their religion. Well that may be so but even if it is against your views, why should you be against allowing those who want it to get married? As long as it is not effecting you personally I do not see a reason to harm those who want to participate in this.

As for people saying it is unnatural, same sex relations have been happening between animals for a lot longer than us humans.

A lot of people will also say that it is unhealthy for same sex couples to raise children. Well there have been a few studies that found that children raised by same sex couples are actually healthier and happier.

Remember- for a long time interracial couples were not allowed to marry because it was "unnatural". I think we are progressing a lot in these last few decades but we still have a long way to go until everyone has equal rights.

Feel free to discuss your reasons for and against this openly. Please be willing to listen to everyone's opinion.

I 100% think it should be legal everywhere.

If you don't like it don't participate in it.
Do not take this away from others just because you don't like it

A quote from a nigga called Rob Thomas
"The support of legalizing gay marriage is in no way meant to change the ideals of the section of Christians who believe that homosexuality is a sin. But we should refuse to let other people's ideals shape the way we live our lives. Each of us has a short ride on this earth and as long as we stay in our lane, and don't affect someone else's ride, we should be allowed to drive as we see fit.

i mean... do you have proof that god DOES exist? Cuz you know... i have the theory of evolution.

Sir i would like you to review what you wrote just now, and understand that while i am not defending nor supporting the creationist point of view, i am asserting that, by nature, the THEORY of evolution is just that, a THEORY. When you equate how the process of natural selection functions as well as how DNA functions, you will often find that, aside from mutations, all the necessary traits are present in predecessors for those who inherit those genes, that do survive natural selection, to survive.

To make it simpler, or put it in layman's terms; Species do not "magically" adapt to their environment, or changes in it. Those who are more adapted to a change in the environment, are "naturally selected" by process of elimination, however, those specimens, came from the previous family that died out, so there is not "new" genetic information, only the variants that came from a certain group within the offspring. They are still the same animal, in essence, and always could have been that animal, however, previous to whatever created their advantage in the wild, they were at a disadvantage, for not being the same as their parents.

IE; evolution occurs within a set limit of changes and while the combinations of traits in possible offspring are immense, they are not infinite. A duck will always be a duck, no matter how it changes its appearance.

While we are on this topic i'd like to present something for all of you to watch and consider, it's probably one of the best debates i've watched. It deals with opposing viewpoints on Creationism and Evolution.

What's your point?
And also a 'duck' will not always be a 'duck' in terms of what we've named species in the past. We're not called apes now. Are you trying to argue that when humans were created as humans and we changed a bit. but that everything didn't stem from the very first cell?
