As a God fearing person I am sick of all the self righteous individuals that feel they can dictate what is allowed and what is not. I feel I need to address this terrible same sex marriage situation and bring logic up and fix those crazy minds.
Argument 1: It’s against natural law.
A law that governs the behavior of natural phenomena.
No other animal exhibits same sex relations and therefore it must be wrong. Of course we do not believe that penguins, and other creatures that partake in life partners of the same sex and /or gender, are actually animals. Because nature dictates that males go with females we cannot condone the marriage or unity of Gays in either a civil union or marriage…whatever you call it its wrong and goes against the natural order of life.
Logic: This is ridiculous many other species are animals even when they demonstrate a propensity for same sex life partners. Many animals demonstrate natural law by fornicating with as many others as possible without discrimination. Take this tidbit as you will.
Argument 2: It is a sin to be homosexual.
The bible clearly states "So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them."
—Genesis 1:27 (NKJV)“The image of God is where the creative power of God, His life-giving, His self-giving and His moral nature is perfectly expressed. This is only possible in a heterosexual union. Both male and female and is reflected in a godly union between male and female.”The only perfect way is between man and woman as demonstrated by marriages already present in society. The constitution’s First amendment states that “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”
This means Christians have a right to practice there beliefs and it would be against their constitutional rights to allow gay marriage or the like of.
Logic: This is also a ridiculous because this ensures that no one is mandated to fallow what they may feel is wrong and that government can not make laws based on religious beliefs. This means that same sex should be allowed.
Argument 3: Marriage is for procreation.
This is obvious but just in case, same-sex people can not make babies naturally together and therefore have no real reason to marry. People only marry to procreate and further our perfect ways. People who cannot bare children do not marry or contribute to divorce rate. Which is fine since this will allow the people who can have children to marry and fill our empty world.
Logic: My good friend just got married and she has yet to been able to bare children. If homosexuals are not allowed to marry because of this, then many marriages should also be voided once inability is obvious. That is a retarded way of things. Some places believe that marriage is for procreation purposes only and families marry their daughters off. However, and this is a big one, American’s have decided that marriage of love and if you can convince me that same sex people can not truly love each other ever at all then I will come over to your view of things. Until then, society can not have double standards like this.
Argument 4: It will ruin the sanctity of straight marriage or undermine the institution of marriage.
The perfect marriage system now ensures happily ever after. If we straight people let gays marry then they might ruin our reputation with marriage by lowering divorces and increasing our marriage rate. This is not fare since we work hard at the numbers we have achieved so far and want them to rise.
Logic: “50% percent of first marriages, 67% of second and 74% of third marriages end in divorce, according to Jennifer Baker of the Forest Institute of Professional Psychology in Springfield, Missouri.””
The divorce rate has creped up over the years and threatens to climb over 50% completely soon. Is this what sanctity is…NO there is nothing to protect since straight people have already trashed whatever the initial idea of marriage was suppose to be.
Argument 5: Same-sex marriage will harm children.
Everybody knows that if gay people get children that they will brain wash them and make them gay. Neighbor children watching gay couples have a greater risk of becoming gay then children that have not seen this atrocity. Straight couples do not ruin their children and always provide good examples on how to live.
“Extending legal recognition to same-sex unions is government's way of telling those children that their parents are wrong, that their priests, ministers and rabbis are wrong, that civilized societies throughout the millennia have been wrong. We respectfully submit that government has no business conveying that message”
Logic: Oh please, all parents not matter how good, or bad, are going to screw up there kids. There is enough crap out there that there is no right anymore. The nature vs. nurture thing is still in debate but since all new people to this date came from a piece of man and a piece of woman and there are plenty of both straight and gay then I would have to say that nurture is out. Looking back at that sentence I guess that means nature is out tooand all that is left is the self.
People seriously, God or no God, this is not for us to decide or judge, just like with abortion. We all do the best we can and judgment is not for us, it is for God, or deity, or death. Let all humans be equal in our eyes like they are supposed to be since all people are equal in the eyes of god. Karma. The messiah died for the sins of all and said for us to live not judge or suppress the creation. Love.

I absolutely hate it when people say gays should not be allowed to get married. No one, and I mean no one should be able to say you can't be happy. This is a country based on religion no matter what anyone says. All of the founding fathers were NOT Christians. We can't base anything on religion. I wish more people could see these things, it's just not right that we fight so hard for equality and then persecute those that are different.
I am not a big fan of the word hate and the associated meanings but very well stated vern. Thank you for your input.
The crazy formatting is beyond my capabilities to fix So Sorry.

"I am sick of all the self righteous individuals that feel they can dictate what is allowed and what is not."
Isn't that what this blog is doing...don't tell me not to marry a woman and I won't tell you not to marry a man...
'No other animal exhibits same sex relations and therefore it must be wrong. Of course we do not believe that penguins, and other creatures that partake in life partners of the same sex and /or gender, are actually animals.'
Actually, I've done some research on this...most animals do sexual things with animals of the same sex...some groups of monkeys in fact use same sex play to help resolve tension in the group...manatees beat each other off, even dolphins have sex with other dolphins of the same sex..why do animals do this? Because sex is fun...and even animals simply enjoy getting off. Animals don't just have sex to make babies, and neither do people...
Also, what do you mean, "we do not believe penguins, and other creatures that partake in life partners of the same sex and/or gender, are actually animals..." What are they then? Aliens disguised as animals to convince us that being gay is ok? People dressed as penguins...I mean, what are you trying to say?
Love ya,

Not just the first part but the entire blog?
I am saying that no body should dictate personal lives. I was purposely trying to be obtuse and obvious. I guess I missed the mark.
For a note: I think that gays should be allowed (not the right word...they are not mental or children...maybe 'afforded the right' is better) to marry with equal right and the same as the diffrent sex marriage, If for no other reason that all the other arguements are crazy.
They are less then aliens dressed like people pretending to be penguins. Lol.
Sorry for any confussion

yeah...it was a little confusing when i first read that but i think the point/sarcasm intended there was meaningful.
Read My Blog!
Actually, I believe I read another blog on this site identifying another animal that participates in same sex sexual interaction....
In addition, I think that sex is a natural instinct, but not necessarily heterosexual sex.
As far as religion, well, not everyone interprets religion the way you do.
I honestly do not see how same sex relationships affect the divorce rate at all. The divorce rate has entirely different causes than homosexuality. I do not understand your correlation there at all. And I am saying this as a divorced woman.
And, finally, throwing the topic of abortion in the mix, however briefly, just doesn't make sense considering it's a completely different topic all together, not to be used as an argument to support your claim.
BONOBOS!!!!!!!!!!!
I could be wrong, but if we're thinking of the same blog, it was bonobos. And I think it was a blog by...shoot. I don't remember.

That is the EXACT blog I was thinking about! I wonder who the author of that awesome blog was? I'll have to think about it and get back to you :)X
I might delete this because it is all confusing.
The divorce rate point was suppose to be against the sanctity of marriage since it basically proves that their is no sanctity left. Also a marriage of love is good in the US.
Same sex marriage is a personally choice and none of the governments business and they have no right to out law it. Abortion is a personal choice and none of the governments business and they have no right to outlaw it either.
Let homosexual PEOPLE marry if they so chose.

I understood what you were saying; don't delete it!
I also see how others may be getting confused, though. In your future blogs in this series (right? the series does have a future?) I would recommend putting up some "TRUE/FACT" and "FALSE/MYTH" categories.

Don't delete it. I should probably have worded my comment different, but it was in agreement with you, but frustration at the silly logic that people have.
Please don't take it as directed to you!!! This is a good blog!
I do like sawaboof's idea of making the headings between the myths and the realities, though! ;)
I don't think you should delete it. I just don't think people read it...like actually read it. I'll admit within the first few lines I was a little confused and I was like wtf who says this stuff, but once I kept reading I understood that you were analyzing other's logic and it made perfect sense and I really liked it.
i think abortion was just another claim to think about, not introduced as an argument. the point was that like whether gay marriage is right or not, the rightness of abortion is also beyond our power to decide.

Yeah, I realized that after I posted the comment.
I didn't realize the blog was being sarcastic...yes I read the whole thing, but I still didn't see the sarcasm...my bad. Now I get it.
