I need to know reasons why gay marriage is wrong?

Question

I am doing a debate on gay marriage and my teacher put me on the con side so i need info on why gay marriage is wrong.

Answer 1

I'm curious as to who chose this debate topic. A sodomite or liberal atheist teacher maybe? I'll be glad to help you and to direct you to some excellent resources. It starts with realizing that it is not correct to say "gay". It is sodomy.

1)It leaves mankind without a way to continue his existance. Every society has been destroyed who allowed it to flourish and approved of it.
2)It leaves the door wide open for other immoral behaviors such as polygamy, incestuous relations, etc. to be "legal" and thus acceptable to society. They actively seek to strike down sexual deviancy laws. They want our children to think it is a "real" marriage and the same thing as what God designed which is preposterous propoganda to teach a child that a man and woman weren't designed for one another and meant to create children and to be there for them and raise them up to be Godly moral citizens.
3) Costs society too much in litigations, health costs, etc.
4) Spreads disease. It is filthy (bad hygiene) to wallow in one's filth or someone else's and call it "love" or "normal". It shortens lives.
5) Perverting the minds of children either adopted, related, or exposed to their inordinate displays of lust. They want to force themselves into positions of Boy Scout leaders.
"PEDOPHILIA IN GAY CULTURE The Historical Connection between Pedophilia and the Gay Rights Movement
David Thorstad is a homosexual activist and historian of the gay rights movement.[48] He is a former president of New York's Gay Activists Alliance (GAA), a prototype activist group founded in December 1969. The GAA at its inception opposed age of consent laws, which prohibited adults from having sex with children.[49] Thorstad is also a pedophile and founding member of the North American Man Boy Love Association (NAMBLA).

Thorstad argues that there is a natural and undeniable connection between homosexuality and pedophilia. He expresses bitterness that the gay rights movement has, in his view, abandoned pedophilia. Thorstad writes: "Boy-lovers were involved in the gay movement from the beginning, and their presence was tolerated. Gay youth groups encouraged adults to attend their dances. . . . There was a mood of tolerance, even joy at discovering the myriad of lifestyles within the gay and lesbian subculture."[50]

The inaugural issue of the Gay Community News in 1979 published a "Statement to the Gay Liberation Movement on the Issue of Man/Boy Love," which challenged the movement to return to a vision of sexual liberation. It argued that "the ultimate goal of gay liberation is the achievement of sexual freedom for all--not just equal rights for 'lesbian and gay men,' but also freedom of sexual expression for young people and children."
6) They are for legalized drugs.
7) They are for euthanasia and abortion and other barbaric forms of "population control". (sanctity of life issues affected.)
8) They are often addicted to drugs, alchahol and other vices such as pornography and want to make it available in programs in our schools.
9) Sodomites want to take the rights of Christians away to declare from any public arena that it is a sin for a man to lie with a man as he would with a woman and so-forth. They want to cause Christian children or others to be ridiculed for saying it is wrong. Basically they want Christians to be silenced, persecuted for their beliefs. (Canada for example already has this problem, display of all Christian/God/Bible symbols, removal of all Godly leaders such as Judge Roy from AL, removal of cross and other Christian symbols, removal of any reference to God from schools. Basically they are Marxists. Anti-American, evolutionists with no moral absolutes.)
10) They infiltrate school counseling and sex education to the detriment of vulnerable young minds. This godless lifestyle promotes suicide which is blamed upon the heterosexuals. It is bigotry in reverse if you will. " I am 27 years old and lived as a lesbian for almost 10 years...When I was 11 years old and again at age 14, I was raped by two different "best friends." They were both female, and the experiences were something that have hindered my trust in women to this day...When this happened at age 14, I confided [about the rapes] to a school counselor, who then gave me a telephone number for an organization in the city for sexual minority youth and transsexuals. She said that this group would have the answers that I was looking for. [When I went to the group] I told them how I felt and they gave me the label to identify myself: "lesbian."..We were encouraged to "live our lives with pride," meaning we were encouraged by this organization to "come out" in our schools and fight for our rights as homosexuals. We demanded our equality by taking our same-sex partners to school dances, gearing class assignments around the propaganda, and making public displays of affection. "

11) Promiscuity is a big part of the picture.

Answer 2

Gay marriage killed the Dinosaurs Top 16 Reasons Why Gay Marriage is Wrong 16. Gay marriage will change the foundation of society; we could never adapt to new social norms. Just like we haven’t adapted to cars, the service-sector economy, or longer life spans. 15. There are plenty of straight families looking to adopt, and every unwanted child already has a loving family. This is why foster care does not exist. 14. Conservatives know best how to create strong families. That is why it is not true that Texas and Mississippi have the highest teen birthrates, and Massachusetts, Vermont, and New Hampshire have the lowest. This is a myth spread by the liberal media. 13. Marriage is a religious institution, defined by churches. This is why atheists do not marry. 12. Children can never succeed without a male and a female role model at home. That’s why our society has no single parents. 11. Gay marriage is not supported by religion. In a theocracy like ours, the values of one religion are imposed on the entire country. That’s why we have only one religion in America. 10. Obviously gay parents will raise gay children, since straight parents only raise straight children. 9. Straight marriages are valid because they produce children. Gay couples, infertile couples, and old people shouldn’t be allowed to marry because our orphanages aren’t full yet, and the world needs more children. 8. Gay marriage should be decided by the people and their elected representatives, not the courts. The framers checked the courts, which represent mainstream public opinion, with legislatures created to protect the rights of minorities from the tyranny of the majority. Interference by courts in this matter is inappropriate, just as it has been every time the courts have tried to hold back legislatures pushing for civil rights. 7. Straight marriage will be less meaningful if gay marriage were allowed; the sanctity of Britany Spears’ 55-hour just-for-fun marriage would be destroyed. 6. Civil unions, providing most of the same benefits as marriage with a different name are better, because “separate but equal” institutions are a good way to satisfy the demands of uppity minority groups. 5. Straight marriage has been around a long time and hasn’t changed at all; women are still property, blacks still can’t marry whites, and divorce is still illegal. 4. Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy behavior. People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has legal standing and can sign a marriage contract. 3. Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay, in the same way that hanging around tall people will make you tall. 2. Being gay is not natural. Real Americans always reject unnatural things like eyeglasses, polyester, and air conditioning. 1. METEORS and VOLCANOES. _()_

Answer 3

I am on the *pro* side of gay marriage, I think it's right and should be legal, but I can tell you some reasons why some people might think it's wrong.

1) You could go with the whole religious thing, and say it's against the bible. Man shall not lay with man, etc.
2) It's bad for the economy: If gay people get married then they will get the same benefits as straight married people such as health insurance, life insurance, social security, etc..

I wish I could think of more reasons, but I am not the right peson to try to answer this question, because I believe in gay marriage!
Cheers! :-)

Answer 4

I would suspect that most of the replies you get on this answer will be based on a person's Biblical understanding. Seeing how society holds a more "progressive" stance on social issues - society as a whole is rather accepting of gay marriage. What hurts gay marriage, however, is the fact that there is a very high percentage of Americans who base their values and morles on Biblical principles. Christianity nor Islam condone homosexuality. So, to anwer your question as to why it is wrong - I would say it is wrong because society as a whole deems the act as an abomination to not only the survival of the human race but also to the norms which society deems as being "natural" in regards to relations with members of the same sex.

Answer 5

I have been asked this before and this was my answer to this question.......

Because A wonderful man was born a few thousand years ago and he had allot of cool things to say and he got nailed to a post for saying all of those cool things. well after he got nailed to said post allot of people took the things he said and repeated them leaving out things that they conveniently forgot, and adding some things they thought sounded better. Some time later one guy said im sick of all this fighting this is what he really said and wrote it all down in one place and tacked it on to an existing already outdated doctrine and called all of it the bible. Well today people are still adding things and forgetting others and convincing themselves that the fact that they have this book that is obviously the only book that is the factual account of events (in case you cant tell that last bit WAS sarcasm)and one of the things that these people have decided after reading this book is that two people who have the same sexual organs aren't capable of loving each other in the same way that two people who have different sexual organs are capable of loving each other. so the decisions that other people are making about my life are based on the misrepresented teachings of people who died thousands of years ago. personally i think that's kind of messed up

Answer 6

1. A marriage is between a man and a woman. Adam was a man. God created Eve from his rib to be his helpmate and to bear children.
2. Sodom and Gomorrah
3. Children who have gay parents do not have the opportunity to be raised in a traditional home with a mother and father.

Answer 7

Your teacher sucks! This is a horrible topic to debate on! The only arguments against gay marriage are clearly personal and religious ones. You just can't come up with a logical response against it!

Answer 8

It is believed that having both a male and female role model is vital for healthy child rearing. Other than that I can't think of anything, accept people are afraid of changing old traditions about what marriage is.

Answer 9

Let's bring the children on the topic. Supposing if the gay couple decide to adopt a child, how will the child be raised. Love is unconditional, but it feels weird when you have two daddies/mommies, isnt it?

Answer 10

Your not going to find why its wrong in the LGBT section.

Answer 11

Someone else's marriage is NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS. End of debate. It is completely moot if it is right or wrong because it is none of your business.
