No, [gays] have civil unions, they don't need to ruin traditional marriage. The only reason why there's a high divorce rate is because idiot liberal parents don't teach their kids to be responsible, and their kids go out and get married at 19 thinking they know how to handle marriage at such at young age.

CIVIL UNIONS =/= MARRIAGE LICENSES
The legal protections are not the same, and if one more fucker lies and tries to say they are, I swear I'll punch you fuckers.
"The only reason why there's a high divorce rate is because idiot liberal parents don't teach their kids to be responsible, and their kids go out and get married at 19 thinking they know how to handle marriage at such at young age."
In opposite world, that is.
... most states don't actually even have civil unions anyway, even if "separate but equal" were a valid principle.
Wikipdeia:
"Vermont, California, New Jersey, and New Hampshire have created legal unions that, while not called marriages, are explicitly defined as offering all the rights and responsibilities of marriage under state (though not federal) law to same-sex couples. Maine, Hawaii, the District of Columbia, Oregon and Washington have created legal unions for same-sex couples that offer varying subsets of the rights and responsibilities of marriage under the laws of those jurisdictions."
Wow... 4 "separate but equal", another 4+a district not even that. So, I'm gonna say... no, we don't have civil unions either.
FOR THE LAST TIME, GAY MARRIAGE DOES NOT AFFECT YOU UNLESS YOU ARE GAY. SO SHUT UP.
And traditional marriage, by the way, is marrying the landlord's daughter for the dowry. What we now call "marriage" is a pretty recent idea. (Forgive me, Jon Stewart said it better than I.)
So, if civil unions should be good enough for homosexuals, then why not make everyone have civil unions? Why allow straight people to be able to have the title of marriage at all, if "civil union" is sufficient? History has shown again and again that "separate but equal" does not work.
"...idiot liberal parents don't teach their kids to be responsible, and their kids go out and get married at 19 thinking they know how to handle marriage at such at young age."
Uh, does the name Bristol Palin ring a bell?
Hey, Justus, take a gander at how many Christian couples divorce in the first 5 years of marriage...or are they all ebil lieberals, too?
rds77: Can I give you a hug?
There have been attempts to give same-sex partners legal recognition since I was a senior in high school. Guess what? Fundies will also fight civil unions and domestic partnerships. But I think he knows that.
Oh, and it's revealing how he thinks "justice" is spelled "just us."
"[gays] have civil unions"
No they don't.
"they don't need to ruin traditional marriage."
I assume that you want that privilege.
"because idiot liberal parents don't teach their kids to be responsible, and their kids go out and get married at 19 thinking they know how to handle marriage at such at young age."
Moron. The people who get married at that young of an age are conservative Christians. Everyone else doesn't have a problem with cohabitating without getting married, because they aren't afraid of being struck down by lightning for having sex before eternally committing themselves to their first love.
I thought it was fundie kids that went out and got married at 19. Liberal kids are shacking up, having group sex and using birth control.
Ahhhh..... to be a liberal kid.
High divorce rate because of liberals? So the fact that the majority of all christian marriages end in divorce, that's just our imaination, right? Or you're all just pretending to get divorced. Learn some facts, use logic to understand those facts, so in discussions you don't look like a moron.
I've noticed that any time a young person makes a descision that the conservative dislikes, they brush it off because "the part of the brain that regulates rational thinking isn't fully formed until 25". Yet at the same time, these same conservatives praise all the young people who volunteer for military service, and go die for their country, as if they knew what they were getting into when they raised their hands.
"No, [gays] have civil unions"
The whole 'Seperate but Equal' thing is so fundamentally wrong in the eyes of liberal democracy it make me wanna puke.
"The only reason why there's a high divorce rate is because idiot liberal parents don't teach their kids to be responsible, and their kids go out and get married at 19 thinking they know how to handle marriage at such at young age."
Oddly enough, the Bible belt is the place reknowned for shotgun marriages, unintended pregnancies, teenagers marrying each other and high divorce rates.
"The only reason why there's a high divorce rate is because idiot liberal parents don't teach their kids to be responsible"
Okay, so, traditional marriage is already ruined, y/y? Why not ruin it some more?
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
