I have a feeling it's not only Christians that voted against gay marriage. I'm sure some of my hindu friends may not agree with gay marriage as well.

Well put. Same here. Not looking to change anyone's mind really, other than possibly my own, though not likely on this issue.

Choose to be gay, thats a funny one..... just as I chose to be straight or black or white or a woman, man or tall, short or intelligent. 
We could solve this real quickly... just tell all the gay people to stop and choose to be straight again. How come I didn't see this solution before!

12+ pages of bantering each other and telling each other you are wrong is not 'poliite'. There hasn't been much progress made in this thread. People are going to believe what they want, and none of this back and forth bantering is swaying each other. Originally posted by Derk2000:

Not meant to sway anyone. It's meant to better understand the other side of things. Though most of it is stupid crap, some of it does have meaning and is useful in understanding how others feel.

SOME of it has meaning, but most of this is back and forth debating. Those states voted to not allow gay marriage. To those states the MAJORITY of the people do not believe in it. Thats the way the system is, and thats the way the system has worked for over 200+ years. It may eventually change, it may not. Originally posted by Kremithefrog:

Wait, wait dude. I never told Kremit that he has to feel wrong for not supporting gay marriages. If that's something he and his family choose not to support that's fine. If his religious organization chooses not to support it that's fine. But you can't legally take a freedom away from a gay person that a straight person enjoys and not call it blatant discrimination.

I do believe there should be something for gay people. It's not marriage though. Marriage is between a man and a woman. That's my opinion. I'm done with this thread. PM me if you need a further response.

Wholeheartedly agreed.
