-Thats fine, at least you're willing to admit that you don't fully understand what I was trying to say. Allow me to try and explain it again. I think the whole 'Gay Marriage Movement' is trying to change the church. I don't really buy that individual gays who just want to get married are trying to change the church, so I agree with you there. However, I feel that liberal politicians (not exactly JUST the dems), and corrupt organizations (ACORN/ ACLU) are USING this struggle of the gay people in order to achieve an agenda of theirs that involves infiltrating the church. I could go more into what that agenda is, but all that matters is that 'infiltration of the church' is part of that agenda. Thats why I say that people can be gay as they want, just stay out of our churches, that way we don't have to worry about groups/politicians manipulating the gay rights movement for their personal agenda.

-People can't use religion as a backing point? And this is your decision? Ok, well there are 2 billion Christians, 1.2 billion Muslims, 1.4 Billion Buddhists, 1 Billion Hindus, and 200 Million Jews who disagree with you. And all those religions denounce gay marriage. Which reminds me, which one of you children said in a earlier post something along the line of "Religion is no longer the majority!"..... 5.6/6 billion people is not the majority?

- And your last paragraph. This argument is not about love. I have clearly established that, and I have never said that "they don't love each other" or that they shouldn't "be with each other", so given that, I do feel pretty good about myself.
First of all, I need to ask you to stop calling everyone on here children. It's demeaning and uncalled for.

It doesn't matter what your country was founded on. All that matters is that it is now secular. You do not live in a theocracy, so you have no right to base your laws on religion.

If you aren't saying it's natural then you need to refute the points I made about science saying it is natural. If you can't refute them then you can't claim it's not natural.

Even if those people and organizations are trying to infiltrate the church, which I don't really agree with, but let's assume they are, how does that give you the right to prohibit gay marriage? Two wrongs don't make a right. Be the bigger man. Let them have their rights.

I never said people couldn't use religion as a backing point. It's just not a very solid or reputable one for obvious reasons. Something being old or tradition is not a decent argument. It's meaningless.

You are keeping them from having equal rights so you ARE denying them happiness. You are denying harmless adults rights that would make them a lot happier!!
