[Gay Marriage]: It Hurts Jesus Real Bad
Posts
The guys a RINO.
The penis and testicles were designed for procreation, the penis was designed to deliver sperm into a vagina for the purpose of fertilizing an egg. therefore Homosexual activity does no promote any of this therefore it is unnatural.
Marriage between a man and a woman promotes the bearing of children and gives them a stable environment to grow in and learn the interactions between a man and a woman and people in general.
Gay activity and marriage does not do any of this.
BTW I don't care who are you boinking go for but I do not have to approve of it and it does not benefit anything.
Your brain was designed for thinking about things and solving problems, but you're using it to fill the void in your head, which is clearly unnatural and wrong.
Then why are so many animals gay, or have homosexual relationships?
or is that too much SCIENCE
Have to love the hilarious American nativist movement. Of course, now the British have one, which is also hilarious.
In the animal kingdom homosexual activity is used to show dominance. as far as humans that is a lifestyle choice.
But their penises were designed to deliver sperm to an egg! Not to show dominance!
I also base my decisions on the bible. Which is why I would not intervene if my country were to invade yours and make your family slaves.
"The penis and testicles were designed for procreation, the penis was designed to deliver sperm into a vagina for the purpose of fertilizing an egg. therefore Homosexual activity does no promote any of this therefore it is unnatural."
Banning blowjobs is niche politics dude.
So, do you think it's okay for a man to marry a 12-year-old girl that he has just raped, provided he pays for her? As per Deuteronomy 22:28? You never answered the question.
Well, it was also designed to pee with.
As much as I love sex, I pee with my penis a hell of a lot more often.
1) For someone who wants to use science you can't really claim that being gay is a 'choice'
2) A gay marriage can not lead to a loving and caring environment for kids? That is complete bigotry on your end, again.
So Condoms are unnatural and we should be rid of them? Married heterosexual couples that choose not to have children are having sex for their enjoyment and not procreation so this to is unnatural?
Yes I can if you are saying that is not then it is an anomaly that is in the brain and therefore can be "cured" do you really want to go down that road?
2. yes it can because there is no balance. a Child needs a mother and a father to have a balanced upbringing
So do you agree that gay marriage should be legal?
Because no one is saying you can't live in your bigoted world where you think they're wrong. That makes you a bad person, but go ahead and be a bad person.
The problem is if you think that because you disapprove of it it shouldn't be legal.

You can't actually "use" science to reach a moral conclusion. Science is a method of inquiry to determine empirical fact.
The problem with using the Bible to define legal marriage is that it is already a separate institution from religious marriage. Marriage in the church should be defined by teaching from the Bible, but not marriages outside of it. For proof of this separation look at Catholic priests who refuse to marry non-Catholics compared to government officials who could not deny marriage for similar reasons.
Actually homosexuality occurs in nature so it is by definition natural. It is also mistaken thinking to think that something natural is good and something unnatural is bad. For example computers are unnatural and Ebola is natural.
There are numerous problems with this argument.
First we already allow people who are infertile to become married and stay married. If the only purpose of marriage was to produce children through sexual intercourse within that marriage then there would be no reason for allowing those people to get married or stay married.
If the procreation does not have to be through sexual intercourse then homosexuals can use artificial insemination, surrogate parents, and adoption. This still ignores that people who choose not to have children through any of the previously mentioned means are allowed to stay married.
If it is about raising children then homosexuals are just as able as proven by multiple studies.

You are going to have to cite some credible sources for this statement otherwise it is complete nonsense and based off of absolutely nothing but your own internal opinion.
And since you're basing your opinions of marriage on what the bible says, I think you should answer Quingu.
The question is, do you have ample justification to take rights/privileges away from people you don't approve of? And what kind of a precedent does that set?
On what basis did you arrive at this conclusion? Please say the Bible. I'd love to talk about the Bible's view of what a balanced upbringing is.
again, you are picking and choosing and therefore your 'absolute truth' thing is nonsense
No I am saying Homosexuality IS a choice. I said if he believed it was not then he is saying it is a defect and therefore can be cured. it is dangerous road to go down (not to mention a false one)
And I said. I don't care who you boink but I don't have to agree or support it.
And a major componey of Marriage IS procreation and the creation of a stable loving family. As far as your studies I'm sorry a boy can't learn to be a man without a father around and girl can't learn to be a woman without a mother around since you learn that from those people.
so then you have nothing to actually base this opinion off of
thanks for proving my point
You're painting it in a strange way here. Are Green eyes an "anomoly" that can therefore be "cured"? No, they're a trait that can be influenced by genetics. It's entirely possible that homosexuality functions in a similar manner. "Cured" implies negative, not objective.
Of course, even if homosexuality IS a choice, it shouldn't matter. Religion is a lifestyle choice, and it's protected. There isn't really a good reason to disallow homosexuals from certain rights/privileges that isn't homophobic.
dragonsama would you please read and respond to some of the many citations people have brought to bear from a variety of experts in the field of childhood development in support of same-sex parents?
So if a boy's father dies when he's young, he can't become a "man" without a replacement?
You're coming off as pretty close-minded here.
Just because its a defect doesn't mean it can be cured, idiot. Can you cure muscular dystrophy? MUST BE A CHOICE THEN!
I used to be very similar to you
Hell I used to deliver sermons
I understand how hard it is to defend a lot of the bible beyond saying "the bible says so"
So I started to think, and question things, and now I am much richer (intellectually and emotionally) for it
The best advice I can give you, is start to think for yourself. Start to question things, start to read into things, even if you don't like where it's going. Make your own informed opinion rather that the opinion that is a by-product of your upbringing.
If you don't care, why the hell do you care?
And just because it's a trait doesn't mean its a defect.
I think pretty much the worst thing in the world is to argue that it's a choice because otherwise it means the person is just made wrong.
Like black people, right? We really need to work on curing that.

Should their kids be taken away from them? How does my tomboy of a cousin teach her daughter to be a "woman" and what is your definition of a "woman" to begin with?
We just need to get back to the good ol' 1950's. When women stayed in the kitchen, dad came home at 5 pm every night to a house of 3 children sitting there doing their homework or out on the tire swing out back, and a friendly neighborhood labrador leapt on his lap to give him a gentle kiss, and the mother and father slept in separate beds.
