Why Same Sex Marriage Should Be Legalized

We just spent all night arguing about legalizing marijuana...

But on topic. Although I'm kind of against it, I beleive the everyone has the right to happiness.

Fly, watch him make several threads about this just to try to get us to do this again... :lol:rockguy92

If they want to, let them. Heck, if someone wanted to marry a Halo 3 disk, I'd let them. I'd laugh and feel weird about it, but I'd let them.

Didn't you get the memo? Humans shut down the baby factory and replaced it with an amusement park. ;)

So you can get tax benefits from marrying dogs?

I read somewhere that a girl got legally married to a rock... :shock:

For me, it is a matter of principle. It does not matter if I think it's wrong or not, because that kind of thinking goes against my personal philosophy, which is existentialism. Therefore, I believe everyone should have the write to make their own meaning of the world, and have that right for society, regardless of what everyone thinks.

Marriage is defined as the union between one man and one woman. That means that neither Mormons (who want to marry multiple times) nor people of the same sex can be legally married. So, with that being the predicament, we either need to change the definition of marriage or come up with a new word to use. Changing the definition of marriage probably won't work, so why not use "civil unions" or something like that? Gays, Lesbians, Mormons, etc., can all be together under the term "civil unions" and those who want marriage to remain between a man and woman can be happy. remmbermytitans

I think that will make such people feel something less than those who can be considered "married", rather than just "civilly united". So, it can't work in principle that everyone can be happy, as they would want to be considered the next step up from that.

But human thinking does, and nowadays sex is regarded primarily as entertainment.

Still, what does the purpose sex have to do with gay people wanting to marry? Who brought this up, anyways?

We have gay marriage in the UK and tbf I don't notice the difference from before and after, as gay couples are just like normal ones. But it should defiantly be legalised in the states. They should have the freedom to do what they want and marry who they want.

same sex marriage is already legalized... when your married its always the same, awful sexAncientNecro

I feel as if marriage is all about a bond of love and trust and why shouldn't gay people have that? It's not fair to discriminate someone else's right to have this, and it shouldn't matter if they are gay or not. As a person who's liberal, I'd say it should be legalized. CleanPlayer

Pretty much my thoughts on this subject.

"Gay people have the right to be miserable, just like everybody else." - Chris Rock on gay marriage

The way people mess up marriage, and still proclaim that it's a holy union, is just plain hypocritical. I've scraped things from the bottom of my shoe that's holier than a some marriages I've seen happen.

If religion was removed from hetero-marriage altogether, and marriage was purely a legal matter, as it should be, we would not be currently arguing this issue.

Obama supports legal unions between gays, as long as they are not tied to the Church. Marriage should not still be tied to any "church" in the first place!

This is a postmodern world we live in, for Dog's sake!

I think it is less of a mindset than it is a tradition.
