Answer 1

No.

The next thing will be interspecies marriages.

Marry your dog, and provide the animal with benefits and rights such as social security, etc.

Answer 2

Probably; you know how this country feels about that topic. I'm for it, but others are not. If that topic comes up again, we'll never hear the end of it mostly, because some Christians believe it's an abomination of God's rules. One question I'd like to ask them is this: If we are free to choose our own religion, why are you forcing your principles down other people's throats? It's because of people like you that the Pilgrims sailed over here on the Mayflower.

Others also think that it's going to destroy the sanctity of marriage. How is two women/men getting married going to mess up anything? I'd like to point out that some idiots thought that interracial marriages would annihilate this country. It's happening as we speak and I've yet to feel the fiery death approaching; so that argument isn't going to work.

Answer 3

I am unable to see the video...

But, as a gay man...not sure why so many people are concerned...the criticism of gay people for so long was that they were promiscuous....now we want to get married, and we are told no. Kinda double talk.

Simply put, I have been with my partner for 17 years...but, if he were in the hospital, in intensive care, I would not be allowed to visit him, because I am not considered immediate family...I would not be able to make decisions on his behalf...should he be unconscious, I would not be allowed to provide long term care should he become infirmed....in addition, should he pass...I could be forced to sell/liquidate any shared assets...and split with his "family".

We could go to great expense and hire a lawyer to try to protect the above rights, (rights automatically guaranteed to married folks for free) ...but, 70 % of the time when wills are contested in courts concerning gay people...the courts will side with "relatives" over domestic partners...so, even then our rights are not protected.

If churches do not wish to hold a religious wedding for a couple...they should have that right....but, civil weddings and all the rights associated thereof should be granted to same sex couples of legal age by the government.

This is not a threat to the sanctity of marriage...the sanctity of marriage was ruined when the divorce rate climbed past 50%

Reading the other responses...it seems there is some issue with pedophilia, relatives or animals.....

The difference is...two consenting adults who are able to think for themselves...should be able to have the right to marry regardless of gender. A child cannot marry an adult regardless of gender...An animal unable to choose for itself cannot marry because it does not have the ability of thought or choice...these are really very different issues.

Answer 4

Incestual relationships have a genetic cost. Brother/Sisters/Parents/Children share 50% of their DNA, this means there is significant risk of offspring developing a genetic disorder (1 in 4 and up). This is why the union is considered taboo along with people's sensibilities, inbreeding leads to big problems.

You can marry and have children with cousins, but it's very much recommened it doesn't happen multiple times in the same family.

Gay relationships don't come with this genetic cost, so there it is purely people's sensibilities holding it back, and very different ones. You can't compare the two.

Answer 5

Agh! No, That's jsut gross, the type of love between a brother and a sister is diffrent

gay people, well theres love between friends, which can happen between a boy and a girl as well

but you can also fall in love with a boy if your a boy or you know

but incest is just wrong to me, and ew, and it causes so many problems gentically with your children so yea

it would never be legalized

Answer 6

The catch here is that they met as teenagers, not knowing they were related. It makes this call a bit difficult. If they were not told until it was too late, I would say let them alone and they can choose. But, they knew when he found them, so they should not live like that. Incest should not be legalized anywhere. There are too many things that can go wrong with that law,

Answer 7

I'm not sure but inbreeding is kind of messed up, the people may be normal but the idea isn't welcoming and the people only get the burden of a mentally handicapped child if the female gets pregnant

Answer 8

it incredibly is going to likely be a not extra Cuts demo that turns to direct action - because it may! Cam has the nerve to assert "pay your expenses" - while the reason we've expenses is through the fact we do not have jobs (or complete-time jobs), and the reason we do not have jobs is through the knock-on outcomes of his extreme, pointless government spending cuts!

Answer 9

I see no end to the degradation of society.

Answer 10

ew thats just weird. ur kids are gunna be all screwed up
