Everyone is entitled to spend their life with someone that they love and that cares about them in return. What difference does it make if that person is the same sex. Consenting adults are allowed to do what they want. I have no right to judge another since I have not experienced what they have during their life.

I am a firm believer that being gay is not a choice, nor a genetic hand me down. A person is brought into this world with the possibility of being straight or gay, but I don't believe that possibility can be a choice made by the individual. So, therefore if two people are in love I believe they should be able to have the same rights as heterosexuals. They don't necessarily have to call it marriage--call it a partnership--whatever, as long as the are treated fairly as far as insurance, you know all the benefits married people recieve.

People are, and should be free to live as they choose. But, a marriage is between one man and one woman. A relationship between one man and another man isn't marriage. Neither is a relationship with a 94 Toyota, a head of lettuce, a basset hound, or a big screen TV marriage. Why should the definition of marriage change? It's worked for thousands of years. A gay relationship is fine, but it isn't marriage

I truly believe that love between two people is their business and we cannot judge one's orientation. I struggled with this as I am happily married to a wonderful man (yes, my avatar is female) but when I thought further...It truly saddens me that those who are in love and are the same sex - life decisions after death, assets, living wills, etc. can not be secured. I think a legalized union between two of the same sex in love should certainly be legal. It's love and I couldn't imagine my significant other having no say over my life should there be those choices to make.

Wow what a question!!! Well personally I feel stuck in the middle. On one hand I think if two people love eachother to get married then nothing is wrong with it. But then I think about well, what if it turns legal then this is only the beginning of what can happen to the American society. If history has taught us anything certain events bring up conseqences.....

I would not mind it, but the repercussions from the media I would mind. There are too many hetero sex scenes as it is, I don't want to see gay ones too. That is not the things that kids should be subjected to. It would also overflow in the the public school system blah blah blah.

I agree with the Massachusetts rationale for legalizing gay marriage. By not allowing gay marriage, you are discriminating against those who may wish to have a gay marriage. Twenty years ago, people had to fight if they wanted to marry someone outside their race, and naturally the conservative viewpoint was that it somehow went against religious beliefs. Now they are trying to do the exact same thing again in an attempt to use religion to legally discriminate against other people.

Christians are against gay marriages because these marriages are against the nature that God has created. Christians and non-christians alike are made in the image of God (Genesis 1:26-27, 9:6).
thats a SIN

I have nothing against it.
Marriage is a confirmation of mutual love, that's all there is to say about it. But it has to be taken seriously, no matter straight or gay, that is what is missing sometimes today.
