You and the rest of the single people regardless of sexual orientation that want to have a princess wedding don't realize the ramifications of marriage.
If you just want an easily annulled civil union with a two year renewable term that's fine and a great idea but quit crying because you can't get married. I know you're thinking that puts me at odds with gay marriage. It doesn't, marriage is difficult and unrealistic. Some just don't realize being gay won't make it easier.
Anyone who's been divorced and remarried is not married either. Married was when you promised to be with that first peson for the rest of your lives, doesn't matter if it was a mistake. Until death might be longer than you expected, deal with it.
Yeah I said it! Quote me.
I didn't change the thread either. It
evolvedWhat I want is for people to be okay with compromise, and be okay with everyone getting a fair say in a democratic way. Marriage is supposed to be special, and look what happened to it since we took God and the Church out of it, right about the same time Government took over and required people to have a license.
Marriage has become less important, less special, less serious. Which has obviously led to parents taking raising their children less seriously. Some people refuse to get married because it will end their benefits, and that leads to more fatherless or motherless children. Some people only use marriage as a tool to gain benefits. It's no wonder everything is all screwed up and the divorce rate is over 50%. Marriage has been abused and used for all the wrong reasons. It's mainly supposed to be about the children and a promise before God. There are so many children growing up in single parents homes, and don't tell me that doesn't usually impact children's lives for the worse. It certainly isn't giving them a head start. More and more children are being raised with disadvantages, and it's showing in our culture.
Marriage is so important to society, and yes there is a lot to learn and understand about the issue. I am confident people will take the time to explore the issue not just based on the propaganda that people should be able to love who they want to love, but to explore the issue on how it affects Democracy, states rights. fairness and equality, morals and values, redistribution of wealth and benefits, the tyranny of the minority, gay adoption, the mistakes of equating interracial marriage or slave ownership to opposing gay marriage, secularism, debt and GDP, reproduction rates, indoctrination in our schools, feminization of men, indoctrination through our culture, sexual confusion among our children, and bully tactics.
