If it is based solely on a religious decision, then no. It is prohibited by the bible. God created man and woman and man to marry woman. If it is in a wordly sense where men makes laws, then anything and everything goes.

Why sure, little timmy~ If there's a monomous gay couple, why not? There are bars crammed with skinny sank *** sluts, and they maximum in all chance not in any respect will marry, in spite of the indisputable fact that those that do fee somebody else more effective than straight forward pleasures. i'd help that~ i'd get rid of the be conscious marriage from the regulation books, and substances it to the church, aka human beings.. lol and in basic terms see it as in basic terms a licence, civil union or not, it in basic terms concerns by technique of the gov't criteria is its mear purpose. human beings strive against for missunderstanding what the gov't for. human beings do not strive against over automobile titles, shall we make the emotion out of it, and substances the be conscious marriage as a lot because the human beings, and they could have cerimonies all alone priavte gatherings.

Male homosexuality was forbidden by Jewish law, St. Paul eschewed all non-procreational sex. Until the Pope banned it in the 10th century same-sex marriage was common world wide. Life long hetero monogamy is just one of the many forms of marriage that have been practiced throughout history. It's not even one of the most common or success full forms, hence the current divorce rate. People keep saying "religion" as if it's a synonym for "Christianity", as a Pagan I'll point out that our faith has never accepted the Pope's authority, and still sees nothing wrong with same sex marriage. That the U.S. gives Christian doctrine the force of law has always struck me as a violation of the 1st amendment.

Yes, of course, why not? How is this going to harm "marriage" to allow gay couples to enter into a legal contract. The government cannot tell churches that they HAVE to let gay couples marry in their church, this issue is about equality. With marriage comes legal responsibilities to the other partner and protection. For instance, say you are in a gay relationship and your partner of 15 years becomes deathly ill. You have bought a house together, you have a life together, and your partner's family, who is opposed to your relationship comes in and says your partner will stay on life support indefinitely even though you know that is not their wish, and that upon your partners death they can decide what happens to their property, not you. That is just one example of many. This is a civil rights issue and everyone deserves to be free and have equal rights, especially in a country that touts itself as the "freest country in the world."

Hmm let's see.
Couple #1: Man and Woman. They got married while he's on death row. She has vowed to kill herself if he dies.
Couple #2: Man and Woman. They met 3 months ago in a bar and got married on a drunken binge. She is now pregnant and they are considering divorce.
Couple #3: Man and Woman. They live according to old beliefs. He is in charge, she doesn't make a move without consulting him. She is desperately unhappy, but knows that if she were to leave him, he would hunt her down and kill her.
Couple #4: Woman and Woman. Have lived together in a stable loving monogamous relationship for over 15 years.
Couple #5: Man and Man. Met two years ago, have dated exclusively and are considering moving in together. Want to get married, but are not allowed to by law.
According to Republicans and Christians everywhere, which of these couples is a threat to the sanctity of marriage?

That's a big topic for the entire country this year... yes, gays should be allowed to marry because it is a human right, not a heterosexual privilege

I don't understand breeders sometimes... straight couples have an over 50% divorce rate but they're allowed to get married to preserve the "sanctity" of marraige... but God forbid two penis's want to get together that's never going to work?
And all they keep saying is that "marraige is between men and women"... Mormans can even have more than one wife... all lesbians ever ask for is to be able to have one.
I believe you need love to have a marraige, not the involvement of a penis AND a vagina.

I think NJ state just ruled that gay couple must be given same legal rights as straight couple do. Which I think is correct since gay people will live with same sex partner whether there is gay marriage or not. But its debatable if one should call it marriage or civil union or something else. I think first thing is to provide same legal status/rights as married couple to gay couple.

The entire definition of equal rights means we should be entitled to get married just like everyone else.

I"m pretty sure that the constitution doesn't cover this. Leave it up to the Supreme Court.
Prediction: Gay marriage will eventually pass, in spite of anti-gay sentiment.
I don't like it, but I can't say whether it's legal or not.
