Quote# 88786

If you want the legal coverage of you being in a perverse relationship, then call it a union and ask for legal protections from the government.

But the fact that this is "not enough" for the activists proves it's not about the government providing the same "legal rights" but rather an attack on religion and God, trying to force their own false religion on the rest of us and trying to use the government to force and establish this false religion on society, passing laws to establish this false religion, to establish this false religious definition of marriage, all of which is a violation of the First Ammendment:

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, which is exactly what they'd be doing if they pass laws forcing us to accept their new religion.

People do not have a "Constitutional right" to have the government force their religion of perverse desires on the rest of society and for government to establish this new religion.

You have legal rights via civil unions. That you demand the "right" for the government to make a new religion instead and make laws establishing it says it all and is the only true violation of the Constitution.

Gayness is a RELIGION?

Nobody is forcing anything on you. It's just about permitting someone the same rights you already have. None of my gay friends would slam their throbbing fuckstick into your tight puckered bunghole unless you asked them to.

And I'll bet you're too closeted to ask.

Let's pretend for one minute that you're not insanely wrong and that homosexuality is a religion. You would then be correct in that Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion. But you seem to be forgetting the next part of the 1st Amendment; Congress shall make no law preventing the free-exercise of a religion either. Which means limiting marriage to heterosexuals is also unconstitutional.

So stop fantasizing about cocks and suck on that instead, bitch.

Holland's King William of Orange was one proponent of Protestant Christianity that, via his power & influence centuries ago, became the basis of what your beliefs are today, pal. And speaking of today, re. Holland:



85% of people can't be wrong.

No one has ever been able to explain to me why allowing other people to get married effects his/her marriage.

Papabear:

When homos get married the current 10 year olds will associate marriage with icky homos.

Ten years later when it's time for them to marry the association of 'marriage' with something icky homos do will cause them to decide not to be married.

This is not snark, this is what they really think. I heard this once in the early 90s when a radio talk show host twisted a fundies arm on the air until he finally explained it. I read it several times again in 2004 when the SCOTAS said sodomy laws were unconstitutional and MA allowed same sex marriage.

You have no understanding of either the law or homosexuality. Educate yourself.

Honestly, what pisses me off about this kind of thinking isn't really the persecution complex, but the sheer arrogance required to think that your religious beliefs are that relevant. I don't give a shit about you. I don't give a shit about your religious beliefs. Fucking get over yourself.

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, which is exactly what they'd be doing if they pass laws forcing us to accept their new religion."

By that line of reasoning we should strike the word "marriage" from our laws since it apparently has a religious connotation. I'd be good with that.

Why does everything the fundies and wingnuts hate have to be a religion? Socialism, evolution, abortion, liberalism, environmentalism, atheism, and homosexuality too? Just ridiculous.

Uhhh, dude? Homosexuality is NOT a religion! Reason2012, huh? What an ironic username for someone who seems to so lack reason!

First evolution was a religion, then atheism was a religion and now homosexuality is a religion?

Can these people actually be this fucking stupid?

Weakest argument ever. Starts from a premise so stupid that I can't even be bothered to type more.

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof..."

Being gay is not a religion. Hating gays and refusing them equal rights is part of your religious dogma. As such, congress can make no law respecting your dogma.
It's actually quite simple.

But lemme guess ... Christianity ISN'T a religion, it's a personal relationship with Jesus. Right?

So mandating no gay marriage, specifically under religious objections, is not a violation of First Amendment... but mandating gay marriage under no religious pressures is a violation?

"People do not have a "Constitutional right" to have the government force their religion of perverse desires on the rest of society"

So, why do you keep demanding that the government do just that? After all, YOU are demanding the Gov force YOUR religious belief onto everyone...

Isn't it funny how those who are being unconstitutional are the first ones to scream about how their constitutional rights are being violated...?

Civil Unions do not bestow all of the rights that a marriage does. Your argument is invalid.

And hateful. And very, very stupid.

Also, for the record the right "to establish this false religious definition of marriage" isn't yours either. Marriage was around long before your religion was and likely will continue to be after your religion dies out, assuming you morons don't kill us or get us killed.

Well, I'm from the uk so I'm not entirely sure how it works over there, but surely if homosexuality is now a religion, you can apply for tax exemption for "The Big-Gay" church?
We could watch them scream at the mere suggestion :P

Things that fundies also think are religions:

Atheism
Science
Evolution
Liberalism, because all liberals are atheists after all.

Things fundies think are religious if you include "Satanism":

Harry Potter, especially since Dumbledore is gay. I thought their heads would never stop exploding over that.

My Little Ponies
Nike
Pokemon...

Well, you get the idea.

Definition of religion per Dictionary.com:

"a set of beliefs concerning the cause, nature, and purpose of the universe, especially when considered as the creation of a superhuman agency or agencies, usually involving devotional and ritual observances, and often containing a moral code governing the conduct of human affairs."

How does homosexuality fit that definition, and, how does Christianity not?

alright, as much as hate this guy, and (pretty much) everything he said, however ive heard this argument before.

if the issue boiled down to "i dont care what they do, just dont call it marriage" then i would have to side with the christians. it never boils down to just that, but it is an extremely reasonable position. if "marriage" is the word for the religious institution, then there should not be a problem with having a "civil union"(i am assuming here that civil unions are exactly the same as marriages, just not done by a religious figure or "under god"). it seems like a very reasonable compromise. of course, again, i am assuming that a marriage and a civil union both have the exact same legal ramifications
