People always ask this about same-sex marriage so I just have to bring it up. Maybe if only gay people were allowed to marry, there'd be less people on Earth and that would be a good thing.

Hehe...funny question. Very sarcastic. I like that. You bring up the age old point that many Americans just don't get....
Who is one to say who and who can't get married. Don't our parents teach us to mind our own business?? Just because you are Christian and believe only a man and a woman should be married doesn't mean you should spend your time persueding the government to ban this type of thing. Keep your beliefs to yourself. Marriage is sharing love between two people. Paper wise marriage is all about taxes. People try and use the defense that "marriage is a sacred thing"....look at the divorce rates. Almost more than half marriages fail. People these days are divorce and marriage crazy!! I don't think marriage is treated as such a sacred thing anymore.
So maybe your right. We do need less production of ignorance and intusive beliefs. Some people need to find better things to worry about than who is marrying who.

After two failed marriages I still believe there is hope so I'd say no. I would however suggest that engagements be a mandatory period of time ( three years springs to my mind ) and that all folk hooking up take some sort of courses for the thing they are about to get into, straight or gay. It's a tough row to hoe under ideal conditions and there seems to be a lot of people just jumping in. That's my spin at any rate, thanks for the question.

Very Interesting ... since over half of all same sex marriages fail as it is so Im not sure it would help or hinder the world.
And because they would still mate and reproduce without marriage that wouldnt solve the over population problem either..Im trying hard to find a benefit here but it just isnt comming to me. .oh well I guess a law wouldnt keep them apart either so why waste the governments time...Im married and intend to stay that way but lol what ever will work for the country and its people .....works for me..I just want a happy peaceful equal world for all.

Two people of the same sex should definitely not be allowed to get married. Sinful acts like this is the reason why the world is going to hell.

Well that certainly wouldn't stop the population going up... marriage is not really a requirement for sexual activity. I think however, it brings up a good point of equality for every person not just a chosen few.

No. Man and woman are meant to be married if they are to be together and reproduce. That is God's will. No matter how you work it around in your mind, same-sex is not natural or normal. Man and man cannot reproduce and neither can two women together. Can't change the facts of life.

Same sex marriage is the norm for the 21st century. However it's not the norm in the eyes of God.

THis is an extremely sexist question..I find it offensive. and I am gay...I don't need lame excuses about creating less people to support my justification for equal rights. AND gay people don't create gay people...straight people do.
