Obese people divorcing....... ugly

So ugly.

Hey, let's not make light of divorce, that's a heavy matter.

Obese people getting divorced is also a "heavy matter." Unless that was your point all along, in which case I'm not funny. :(

Then you are not funny ... kinda sad, isn't it?

@Auto

Try to leave the jokes to the professionals. You can easily identify us by the "comedy cube" badge next to our names.

So does anyone else feel that this is unnatural and wrong besides me? Even without bringing religion into this, I fear allowing same-sex marriage leads society down a slippery path of moral decline.

Why are you so ashamed of your tedium grid badge that you have call it a comedy cube badge?

"So does anyone else feel that this is unnatural and wrong besides me?"

I'm sure someone somewhere agrees. I can't say I do.

I agree, Slyguy, it's much more natural and better for society if the gays just keep to casual sexual relations.

A path of moral decline?
LoL!
Ever thought about it in the way that we are dropping useless morale baggage? Maybe we are even in the process of building a better society this way. More freedom to more people may mean a net plus in happyness all around?
Either way, i don't think it is wrong but a long overdue thing to permit.

slyguy, i couldn't agree more, i mean obviously the institution of marriage is totally natural and not man-made (there have been anthropological studies of monkeys in white dresses and tuxedos consumating their love), but only with different sexes. this completely natural institution becomes deviant as soon as it is between two people (or animals) of the same sex.

Playing diplomacy and talking about moral decline? Lol....

"same-sex marriage leads society down a slippery path of moral decline"
Where is the decline in morals just because loving couples can marry each other?
Is being gay immoral or are you one sandwich short of a picnic?

After having thought about this for a second i still dont' think the path is immoral. Not at all. But with all the lube it might indeed get a bit slippery, right?

You gave it a whole second, wow.

That's because he's not as slow as you are ssorenn.

:-)

Wow oscar, I think I might whine and cry all day, your whit at slander is oh so....wait for it.........non-existent.

So I just spent the last couple hours in the car writing a response to post here just to find out that I can't post anything longer then like 5 lines on my dang phone!!! -.-

*like 7 lines. Anyone know how to fix this on an android???

@sly

Are you having a problem because if your post is too long, the "Post Reply" button disappears? If so, flip your phone on its side so you enter landscape mode and the button will come back.

Before I begin the discussion that must inevitably stem from this thread, I'd like to make a couple things clear.

First, I completely see where you're coming from. Looking at the issue of same-sex marriage on the surface, it seems like a perfectly reasonable thing to allow. After all, if two people love each other, who am I to say whether they can get married or not? Anyone who has an issue with same-sex marriage must just be a hateful bigot who can't get over their own prejudice, right? Well, maybe not. You see, as it is with many things in life, there's more to this issue than it may initially meet the eye. One must consider the long term effects that same-sex marriage could have on society before letting their emotions draw a hasty conclusion for them. But I'll come back to that later. Right now this is just an introductory post to make a couple things clear before I begin.

The next thing I want to make clear is that religion stays out of this. Seeing as I'm arguing against gay marriage, you can probably make a safe assumption what my religious beliefs are. I do believe that my religion is credible; and if I were addressing an audience which shared my views, I would have no problem convincing them that our religion was against same-sex marriage. However, because I don't know what your beliefs are, I can't assume that you agree with me. Because of this, I can't use my religion in my arguments unless I establish it as credible first; which would be a completely different discussion. This does prove to be a substantial setback for me, (admittedly a lot of my reasoning on this issue does stem from my religion) but I'm willing to discuss same-sex marriage in a purely secular sense.

And last of all, I'd like to apologize in advance for the delays between my postings. I'm a busy guy. Most of the time I don't have access to a real computer and so I'm forced to use my mobile. I'll try to respond to this thread as quickly as possible, but I can't make any promises. Oh and I apologize for any grammer/spelling errors. Probably not going to be the best writing I've ever done. Gotta love that autocorrect!

Ah there we go. Thanks abgemacht! :)

wow. you already sound reasonable. this is going to be interesting for sure.

Slyguy, you are a miserable faggot who deserves to die. Any person who can unsarcastially argue against same sex major deserves the death penalty. Our world can still be saved from evil scum such as this bigotty asshole.

Major means marriage.

Lando, you should be more careful. It's posts like that which turn reasonable people like myself into someone like Krellin.
