    Marriage leads to more stability? Gee, you don't say.

    There is social incentive to marry. It creates legal bonds (obligations) that demonstrate sincerity between partners in a material way. That is why people will still want to get married.

    I'm willing to take that risk. No, I do not think you deserve free stuff from the government merely because you want to get married. Pump out some kids after you get married and we'll talk.

    False

    The Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) (Pub.L. 104–199, 110 Stat. 2419, enacted September 21, 1996, 1 U.S.C. § 7 and 28 U.S.C. § 1738C) is a United States federal law that restricts federal marriage benefits and required inter-state marriage recognition to only opposite-sex marriages in the United States

    Yes, We should restrict deviants like we have always done.

    Cause everyone who claims this is an equal rights issue is a liar. They want new laws and rights. They want to pervert other laws written before. Like adoption. Gays shouldnt be able to adopt kids. They cant procreate, and they shouldnt have those rights.

    sorry, but procreation has nothing to do with who can marry. that's why you don't need to ahve the ability or intention to procreate in order to marry. you don't even need to have sex in order to marry.

    The why do we subsidize it?

    You'll never answer because the answer sinks your battleship.

    your identical argument was used, and failed for interracial marriage. it is failing for same sex marrige also. thats why you keep losing in court, and why state after state is legalizing it.

    That is simply not true. There are a number of people who are allowed to marry who cannot get procreate. Marriage law does not require procreation whatsoever. If you are so certain, show me in the law where procreation is a requirement for marriage.

    No special rights. What heterosexuals have now is special rights.

    What you want to keep is special rights for yourself.

    Abolishing the marriage license would not abolish marriage. People would still get married in their churches or write legal contracts if not religious as always. Marriage as an institution existed long before the creation of a marriage license. It makes no sense to assume that removing the marriage license = nobody gets married. Would you agree that getting rid of government welfare for the poor = nobody will give money to help the poor? If not, then you should be consistent and apply that to marriage. We don't need to government to form relationships.

    The argument against interracial marriage: If you are black you still have the same rights as a white person. You just have to marry someone of the same race.

    Your argument against same-sex marriage: If you are gay you still have the same rights as a straight person. You just have to marry someone of a different gender.

    Same flawed argument. If you disagree with the first, you have to disagree with the second. Anything else is hypocrisy.

    False, DOMA is being reviewed bu SCOTUS right now because many think that is based on religious beliefs. "Deviants"? Only according to your religious beliefs. Liars? Only you anti-gay marriage fanatics. Look you are ranting about gay marriage on a thread about promiscuity. That is the very definition of fanaticism. Go anywhere to rant about your opposition to gay marriage.

    It IS about equal rights no matter how much you disagree. Gay adoptions have been accepted even if you do not like it.

    Tell me your views on the topic of this thread. They should be as nutty as your rant against gay marriage.

    So you would be in favor of restricting interracial couples as well? They deviate for the norm.

    What counts as deviant behavior? Is oral sex between heteros deviant in your opinion? What about Hetero anal sex? I do not think it is reasonable to restrict deviants unless you can at least identify and define them.

    For everyone. You will have all of the same rights. So what are you being denied? How is it injuring you? How is it injuring anyone?

    Maybe. But that has nothing to do with marriage. Lots of married hetero couples cannot adopt kids either. Simply being married does not mean you can adopt kids.

    I did so you obvious avoid a reply to that. What do people like you think that you will accomplish by ignoring facts? Why do you just constantly repeat your lie when answers have been given?

    Please go back to your black and white movies and live in the past. You offer nothing here.

    Heh- funny coming from someone who keeps insisting that marriage is about procreation yet dancing around the obvious points that marriage neither requires procreation, nor ensures procreation and procreation doesn't need marriage.

    Being called a fraud by you is like being called a racist by the KKK- its an honor.

    I am insisting that your claim of 'economic viability' was crap. You can't defend your crap. You retreat.

    Game over, dude. Not the tiniest shred of intellectual integrity. Shame on you.

    And that is because you got flayed in your ridiculous and crap argument about marriage being all about procreation.

    You are the one who keeps insisting that marriage is about procreation yet dancing around the obvious points that marriage neither requires procreation, nor ensures procreation and procreation doesn't need marriage.

    Being called a fraud by you is like being called a racist by the KKK- its an honor.

    Being told I have no intellectual integrity by you is like having Rush Limbaugh calling Stephen Hawkings a retard- its an honor- thanks.

    Last post.

    It's not about procreation and kids. Fine.

    WHY ARE WE SUBSIDIZING MARRIAGE?

    And you (and all the other losers) took that one up the ....er...never mind.

    Oh thats easy.

    Because Congress passed laws to subsidize marriage.

    I thought everyone knew that.

    Because the people in the country that can legally marry are the majority, and they are giving economic perks to themselves at the expense of the minority that cannot marry.
