Should there be gay marriage, unions(with the same rights as marriage), or neither?


Marriage: I know most people look at this as a religious issue but marriages came channel before religions. I do however respect that many religions don't accept same-sex couples and should not be forced to amalgamate them in marriage in their church or by it's pastors/fathers/priests/etc.. if they don't believe within it. Civil Unions: If you're going to give them the same rights as marriages, why not simply called it marriage or call adjectives marriages civil unions? Neither: How are they hurting you personally? You don't want your kids seeing them label out in public??? So you're okay with your kids seeing a guy and girl play tonsil hokey in public?! That's sick, what nature of a parent are you?!
Best Answer:
Neither, and what is sick about a boy and girl kissing within public? I guess they should outlaw kissing the bride in public. Homos are sick and should stay in the closet with the lights out.
no gay marriage
"marriages came track before religions" So you have the start dates for both of these do you? I individually am glad to see it become a state issue and not a federal issue. It should be the same with abortion, let respectively state decide.
I'm hoping marriages, but if not, at least civil union. I think it should be left up to the states to decide. And by the process things are going, more and more are legalizing gay marriage faster than I ever expected.
Some people value marriage WITHOUT the beliefs of religion. That it anyone between a man and woman. Civil Unions are a way for gay people to do the same. It's really simple, gay race can't create kids together. They can't do the same things as man and woman and marriage in ruling is based on a man and woman. So since gay people want equal rights, shouldn't they want straight people to hang on to their rights - such as keeping marriage in law consecrated between man and woman? I have seen more people lash out at straight ethnic group because they value their marriage than I have see gay people respect that. Don't take this offensively, it's only just my opinion and experience as to how gay people and gay supporters have react towards me and the way I see things painted in the medium and the public. The media is another form for straight people to get constantly attacked. Gay race don't "hurt" anyone by being gay but I think it is unfair of them to not spot straight peoples values that are already SET IN PLACE and just ask for their "civil unions" or whatever they want to call it. There should be a separate set of law or rights, civil unions.
gay unions are fine. i have no problem next to that. if two people are partners for life afterwards i agree they should be treated the same. but don't call it marriage
It will end up one marriage. The issue at this point is pretty moot, it's just a source of political pandering for both sides. Given precedent such as Loving v. Virginia and the 14th amendment gay marriage will occur.
I think marriages should be legitimately reclassified as civil unions. That way homosexuals will have equal rights below the law, and religious institutions can keep their sacred interpretations of marriage ceremony. If we just replace "marriage" with "civil union" in adjectives the law books, I believe this whole controversy would clear right up.
I think those are hung up on the word "marriage". So I think there should be gay civil unions that own the same rights as marriage but isnt called marital.
I cogitate if marriages are going to be a religious thing then married couples shouldn't get hold of special tax breaks. Separation of church and state you know.
They can have adjectives the same rights as far as I am concerned; however I don't think all the dictionaries should be deem wrong when they state "marriage is between a man and a woman." Have the same thing as a marital just call it something else like "civil union" or consent to them name it. How about "Garriage"? Or any other name you want to hail as it. It can not be a state by state thing. Everytime someone moved to a new state there would be the grill as to whether or not their "civil union" would be recognized. It needs to be a federal thing. LOOK UP "MARRIAGE" IN AN OLD DICTIONARY. I say-so OLD because all new dictionaries that will be printed in the adjectives will be edited by Liberals to change the definition.
I think civil unions are ok, I may be hoary fashioned, but I believe marriage is a union between a man and a woman. We were not married surrounded by a church, so it is not a religious belief. I just feel that letting something else be called nuptials somehow lessens our achievement and commitment, which is in its 20th year. Actually, perchance all couples should have a civil union for the first ten years, and later let them graduate into marriage.
People should be voting for "yes" or "no" in each state as to allow it or not.
There should be gay civil marriages. Churches and other religious groups don't have to recognize them. As it currently stands, a church isn't obligated to accomplish or recognize anyone's marriage, gay or not.
