My beef with our gay rights!!

[buck]

as christian i do not like the idea of gay marriage, as i believe it was created for hetrosexual couples. before anyone abuses me I do not have any issues with homosexuals at all, I beleive that giving these people the right to marriage is dare i say a little insulting, what next? If i want to marry and have sex with my horse then this will be ok to?

In my opinion you clearly do have an issue with homosexuals. How could you even consider drawing an analogoy between gay marriage and beastiality? I realy do feel sorry for you. You are entitled to your opinion but unfortunately I think it is a very ill informed one.

For what it's worth......I was raised Catholic. Went to a Catholic primary and High School. I am well aware of the "Church's stance" on homosexuality. The issue I have is my brother is Gay, and is probably the most decent and well adjusted person I know but is seen as a sinner for being true to himself yet the catholic church has been protecting priests who have sexually assualted young boys for years.

I'm going to pretend that you didn't compare gay marriage to having sex with a horse.

to be fair on the bloke, I'd put sodomy and bestiality in the same basket too.

Why? How are they the same?

buck common mistake.. its not beastiality... it's bestiality...

I just find them both offensive and un natural. But I have no problem with other people doing what they want to do with their bodies.

We covered it in a law class once. Ever since I've picked up most people say "beast" thinking it's correct because of the animal factor. But they are simply uneducated :lol:

No...cause the horse has morally and ethically has no say in the matter. Two gay males or two gay females have that choice. Marriage or the idea of marriage pre-dates Christianity anyway. Also that was thousands of years ago when many other facets of life that where common then are now considered immoral and unethical in western society such slavery and equality (although equality is part of the debate lol).

I am a christian as well so meh. Being christian, or having a spirituality has nothing to do with it as well unless your a fundamentalist or extremest in which case I wouldn't talk to you. Also if you are christian or religious in any way should you not be accepting of other people/cultures/beliefs including the notion of gay marriage?

Thanks for posting in a polite way and I hope I did the same.

i do believe that my spiritual beliefs have eveything to do with it without me being fundamentalist as my beliefs have formed my opinions on this subject, i am accepting of people regardless of sexual choice, does not mean i agree with it. and to everyone else who wants to flame me on this this is my belief just putting it out there, not putting any one down just saying i think its wrong. probs went a bit far with the horse thing i am sorry.

the church you speak of isnt MY church, and has nothing to do with "sin" i just think it is unnatural. from an evolutionist view doesnt make much sense either as 2 of the same gender cant breed. also from a social science point of view a child needs a healthy example of both male and female as parents not 2 of the same gender. save your pity for some one else.

Apart from that, are you trying to say that gay marriage is insulting to the christian idea of marriage?

in a long winded nut shell yes

 

[moosenoose]

You just wanted to use "Beef" and "Gay" in the same sentence!

:lol: :lol: I was wondering the same thing myself

Its amazing how religion is always bought into a debate.
No religion, no wars !! simple.

What about Hindus or athiests who get married? DO they insult the idea of a Christian marriage?

Wallypod people don't "choose" their sexuality. I am assuming that you, like myself, didn't choose to be straight
we just are. The only thing that people can "choose" is to live a lie or be true to themselves and others.

That's a risky statement... If sexual preference is pre determend then pedophiles would be able to use that as an excuse for being attracted to minors.

People choose not to have sex for many different reasons... Sexual preference being predetermined doesn't give pedophiles an excuse to CHOOSE to have sex with minors.

 

[cris]

Why are athiests allowed to marry?

I have no idea, i think it should be banned.

 

[waruikazi]

If it's not then why don't you choose to be gay?
