Quote from Upps
Did you just tell me that if a man ****s another man, a man get's pregnant?
Find where I said that. You are so stupid.
And no, non of my friends are homosexuals.
10% of the human population is gay, so if you have more than 10 friends then one of them is probably gay but too scared to come out to intolerant bastards like you.
Being gay isn't normal, And calling psychologist gay for saying that their not normal is completely immature.

You thought i was using gay as an insult? I was being completely realistic. 1 out of every 10 people are gay, so 1 out of every 10 psychologists are gay as well. there are more gay people in the world than there are Native Americans, Australians, or Americans for that matter. So for you to say to say that such a HUGE DEMOGRAPHIC OF PEOPLE ISN'T NORMAL IS RIDICULOUS.

Secondly, why do you care whether gay people get married? they love each other and want to spend the rest of their lives together, so they want to get married. But while we could be arguing about topics like abortion WHICH HAVE A LOGICAL OPINION ON BOTH SIDES AND WOULD AFFECT ALMOST EVERYONE, you decide that you will just deny them the right to get married, because apparently they are "not normal", even though the gay population in the world is more than most countries have.

I dont even think there should be a marriage system in all.

but if there is it should be between anyone because they have the same amount of rights as anyone

oh, also, though you (Upps) say that most psychologists say homosexuality is a mental illness:
http://www.apahelpcenter.org/articles/article.php?id=31
get to the part where it says "Is homosexuality a mental illness?"
Here is the answer, and i quote:
Originally posted by The American Psychology Association

Is Homosexuality a Mental Illness or Emotional Problem?

No. Psychologists, psychiatrists, and other mental health professionals agree that homosexuality is not an illness, a mental disorder, or an emotional problem. More than 35 years of objective, well-designed scientific research has shown that homosexuality, in and itself, is not associated with mental disorders or emotional or social problems. Homosexuality was once thought to be a mental illness because mental health professionals and society had biased information.

Maybe you should, you know, look shit up before you say it.

I know its a jackass thought,
but i just do not believe in homosexual marriage,
if they want to be gay, let them. But leave the weddings to the real men and women.

They are still "real" men and women even if they are gay. Choose your words a little more carefully next time.

mar⋅riage
–noun

-a social, spiritual, or legal union of individuals. This union may also be called matrimony, while the ceremony that marks its beginning is usually called a wedding and the married status created is sometimes called wedlock.

Where in there did it say "Man and Woman"? Even though most religions define marriage as a bond between the two genders male and female, the universal definition for it is as stated above. Get used to the fact that what you think is right, may not be right for others.

If I remember, this is how most wars are started.

OK enigma already pointed out the dictionary definition but I suspect a lot of people will start trying to get religious on it so I'm going to re-iterate the catholic and protestant views because I don't think anyone read them.

Protestant:

"The commitment made in love for love.... It is a profound sharing of present experience. As such, it also anticipates sharing of future experience. It is a commitment through time. It embraces the future as well as the present. It intends and promises permanence ... The polyphony of love finds expression in the lovers' bodily union. This is not to be comprehended simply in terms of the two individual's experiences of ecstatic pleasure. Such it may certainly be; but it is always more. It is an act of personal commitment which spans past, present and future. Above all it communicates the affirmation of mutual belonging ... [Marriage] is a relational bond of personal love, a compound of commitment, experience and response, in which the commitment clothes itself in the flesh and blood of a living union."


Catholic:

"This love is uniquely expressed and perfected through the marital act. The actions within marriage by which the couple are united ultimately and chastely are noble and worthy ones ... these actions signify and promote the mutual self-giving by which spouses enrich each other with a joyful and thankful will."


No mention of gender anywhere.

Because when I'm ****ing older i don't want the same specifications as a faggot. Marriage is between a man and woman.


Marriage doesn't just mean between a man and a woman.
In the defintion they say nothing about gender.

But... why? No one needs your simplification of other things that have been stated.

Let's try and be reasonable here. It doesn't matter what the origins of something are - it should be about what it is now, and what the sanctity of marriage is in modern terms is to be with one person who you love for the rest of your life (sorry if that sounds naive). What the sanctity of marriage does not mean is making sure that only people of differant genders can do it and discriminating against people because nature made them differant from you.

You dumbass.
The origins were for love (and sometimes for god worship, but heck) and in modern terms it is 'men+woman= Normal love', because oh, it is o bad when two men would kiss eachother (though, when two women do it, they get paid for it).

I disagree. Whilst it may be a majority of the population for whom man+woman=normallove that doesn't make it wrong for man+man=love if the jority of the poulation is willing to accept it and even the churches' definitions don't disagree.
