So, you're a homophobe that opposes gay marriage?
it's not like that i OPPOSES(such a strong word) it, just that i think it's not natural for that to happen, God created men and women to be together, how is a man gonna have a baby with another man(except for adoption), if they can't, how can they carry out the responsibilities of parents or even wife and husband(in that case, 2 husbands).
as i said, it's not like, i'm very strict about it, but i just don't think it's right
As much as I've weighed in on this subject when I've come across discussions, I haven't actually come to the logical answer until now. First of all, marriage itself is not about reproducing. People are always talking about how gay marriage is wrong because two dicks or two pussies don't make a kid. And if there is some kind of unspoken law about reproduction and marriage, how does it apply to surrogates? Some people's bodies aren't capable of reproduction. Logically, when saying that homosexuals shouldn't get married because they can't reproduce, its the same as saying someone who has some kind of physiological problem such as infertility can't get married either.
God didn't create shit and has nothing to do with this, no offense to people who believe otherwise. If it did have an opinion don't you think this would have been resolved, lets say, thousands of years ago. I've seen a lot of "street prophets" in my life and heard a lot of things out of them, but never have I heard one say, "God thinks homosexuality is wrong."
As for the whole, "how can a homosexual couple carry out the responsibilities of parents" issue, I know a lot of people who had gay parents that were raised completely fine. Most of them are even more functional in society and mentally stable than people who have straight parents. What about single parents for that matter? I have a dad, but I don't consider him as such, because he was never around. Fuck, I didn't even know he existed until I was at least 4 or 5.
Homosexuality has no bearing on a person's parenting capability. If I didn't actually hear it coming out of people's mouths, I wouldn't even believe that a person would think something like that. Its completely baseless and extremely prejudiced against homosexuals.
Oh shit, I did it again. I really need to work on controlling my ranting.
well, if u go into the subject in such a umm.. in-depth angle, u're right about all of it, that i cannot argue, but..
what i'm saying is majorly focused on the moral view of things(basically just common sense), i mean, there's nothing wrong with a man loving another(even sexually), it's all just personal preferences, there are just way more straight people in the world than those who are homo. which creates a sort of social ethics for the most of us.
and i definitely didn't mean what u think i meant on the parental responsibility part, i didn't refer to anything as "he's gay, he probably doesn't how carry out the responsibility as a father" what i meant was, if u have no children, naturally one wouldn't know how to carry out the responsibilities as a parent, that's one of things we gradually learn from the generation that raises us and therefore pass it on.(simple misunderstanding, don't get offended or mad, i just wanna know what ur opinion was, and it was helpful, so please forgive my careless selection of words that might have cause some misunderstandings)
