Reasons why Gay people shouldn't marry:
1. Being gay is not natural. Real Americans always reject unnatural things like eyeglasses, polyester, and air conditioning.
2. Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay, in the same way that hanging around tall people will make you tall.
3. 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.
4. 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.
5. 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. 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.
7. Obviously gay parents will raise gay children, since straight parents only raise straight children.
8. 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.
9. Children can never succeed without a male and a female role model at home. That's why we as a society expressly forbid single parents to raise children.
10. 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.

YES Gay Marriage is ok if you are gay
Answers to your list
1. it is if you are gay
2. only if they are gay in the first place
2.hanging around tall people will make you tall.-- So why are there dwarfs to tall parents etc
3.crazy behavior is not just for gay folks--crazy is ever where
4. So have gays, Women are only property if they want to be, Black and whites marry in most places ,divorce is legal in most places
5.Only if they marry a same sex partner also
6.Many straight marriages don`t end with children ,and every one has the right to marry any one they want regardless of the reason.
7. So why are there gay kids to straight parents, if straight parents only raise straight children then there are no gays around. Or are gays from gay parents whom you say can`t produce kids.
8. No because the churches spend so much time covering up the gay relationships the preists are having.
9. There are millions of kids from one parent familes that do very well for them selves ,and why then do more gays seem to have higher paying jobs and more money than a lot of straight folks
10.Gays have been around a very long time ans society foundations are still solid
What will change the society foundations will be bigots, racists, And the un informed like your self.
And i think one day get out of your ego and go out side and see that the world is changed alot since you know very little of the world and the modern chages that have happened while you were so busy finding ways to rubbish others that live their lives differently

Yes. Nice list, seems to have all the usual arguments lol.
Gay marriage is about equal rights. Gay people can't marry today in America and that's discrimination. It also goes against what your country stands for. The pursuit of happiness might include a same sex partner for some people. There is no logical reason to keep responsible adults from getting married and expressing their love in a formal way.
I believe you effectively debunked most of the counter arguments very effectively even I would say. My compliments very impressed if you made that list yourself.
Except maybe the polygamy one so let me give that a try.
11) If you allow gay marriage you have to allow polygamy as well because allowing a group equal rights such as gay people means you have to give straight people new privileges like marrying with several partners
We have gay marriage in the Netherlands and in Belgium. People marry and are happy. God didn't come of a cloud to blast us of the face of the earth. Basically nothing really changed, only gay people who want to marry have a right to happiness and personal fulfillment now that was denied them before.
Wow hilarious the anti gay people agreeing with that list lol. Guess it's clear where the intelectuals side lol

Being gay is not natural ? Says who ? There have been gays for 10 's of thousands of years - written about in the bible and in ancient civilisations - you and the christian god might not like them but for a group who has been around since the wheel I'd say it is a stretch to think it isn't natural
Attraction is one of a biologically determined state - gays will no more encourage non gays to join than women will suddenly become attracted to fat beer drinking men if given enough exsposure
There is no relationship between beastiality and homosexulaity
At any rate what people do in their own relationships is not my business -
I challenge any one to tell me how a gay marriage has harmed my hetro- sexual marriage
Living in Canada where gay marriages have become legal I can tell you that societal stats haven't changed at all which is why I assume the right wing bible bashers of the US no longer mention Canada in their rantings - Just like they never mention the successful stories of socialist Europe which has less debt a higher standard of living and a higher dollar

yes. i support gay marrige.
1.being gay is NOT NOT NOT unnatural! You can't help it. also, glasses aren't unnatural either, and i am a real american cuz i m an american citizen, and i support gay rights!
2.gay marrige will not encourage people to be gay, because there is scientific evidence that it is determined while you are still in your mothers uterous. hanging around tall people WILL NOT make you tall! it's genetics!
3.why is it even your bussiness who other people get married to? they can marry a toaster for all i care!
4.blacks can marry whites, and women ARE NOT property!!!! where do you get your ideas?
5.marrrige will not be made less important if you let everyone have eaquel rights. marrige is for people who love eachother and it will not be less important unless the people aren't in love. also, why is Britney Spears' 55 hr. marrige so important that you would deny people eaquel rights?
6.the world has plenty of people. actually we will be out of petrolium in 200 years because of over use. amd the planet is being ruined because of overpopulation.
7.i know straight parents who have raised gay children and vise versa
8.actually, only two of the ten commandments were made into laws, and that's just common sense. law isn't based on relegion.
9.sociaty doesn't forbid single parenting! one of my friends dad left, and she's fine! she's better! she hated him!
10.well if you aren't adaptable, that's your problem. don't take it out on others.

that's just stupid to not let someone marry who they want!
#7- all children that are raised by gay parents are not always gay
#6- gay people can have children through artifical insemination
#1- whay do you mean unnatural- everything is not natural that is just life
I wear glasses and it sucks , I would give anything if I could see as good as I do with them, without them!
And for all of you homophobs
gay people are going to be around wheater you like it or not, so deal with it!

I VERY much support gay marriage.. I saw this thing that Rosie O'Donall did with a cruise line.. it was for gay family's on HBO and I loved it.. i really saw a lot of love with these family's and so I think why shouldn't you be married just because your 2 of the same sex? I've been married to my husband for 7 years and I love it, so why cant you guys enjoy it just as me? Its wrong this world.. we are more into wars then love.. such bullsh*t!
If you haven't seen this program then you need to, it mad me get tears in my eyes which never happens! LOL..
All of them have children they adopted and love just like their own, some found opposite couples to make children with sperm ect.. so its wonderful and I support it very much!

Lmao, I think you were kidding with the list. At least I hope you were.
Yes I support gay marriage, seeing as I'm a huge lesbian.
I'm 14 though, so illegalizing gay marriage won't effect me for like 4 more years, I probably wont get married anyways.
