I would appreciate it if someone found the link but I'll summarize. Larry King thinks that polygamy and beastiality marriage is exactly the same as gay marriage. Anyone else think this so called "intelligent man" is an idiot? Traditional Marriage involves 2 Consenting People. Polygamy involves more than 2. Larry King is an idiot.
Beastiality marriage involves a consenting person and an animal. This breaks the "people" and "consenting" so we can conclude that Larry King doesn't know what he is talking about. Now if he were going to reply with that traditional marriage ALWAYS involved a man and a woman. Then he obviously doesn't remember when most of America was racist and that two people of opposite ethnic groups couldn't marry. Whites couldn't marry non-whites because it broke traditional marriage. What are your opinions?

I'd love to hear this one. Unless this is some kind of meta-argument that it should have to be legalized because it should be legal by default, i'm pretty sure you're wrong.

you must not understand the pun he put in his post. Did you guys hear about the UN syaing its OK to kill the gays. Majority decided it was ok. Majority were African countries and other countries that are still in the stone age of the 21st century

Sorry Jaden, it wasn't a pun. :/

Unlike what you might be thinking after reading my post, I don't hate gay people. There really shouldn't be any law that prohibits someone from doing something that doesn't harm other people.

However, believe it or not, marriage has religious significance to some. So I'm merely against the recognizing of a bond between same-sex couples as marriage. Give em all the legal benefits straight couples get.

And even saying that, I still have mixed feelings over the whole thing, so please don't reply immediately with

I'm against [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hall%27s_theorem]Hall's marriage theorem[/url], because I believe marriage should be between same-sex couples, not elements of abstract sets. I refuse to recognize that words have varying meanings to different people and in different contexts, and I will not acknowledge that others may hold equally strong views to the contrary, as I believe that only my worldview is the one that should be officially acknowledged.

As a devout Catholic, I demand that signed "confessions" in criminal trials not be referred to as "confessions", as the word "confession" has religious significance to me, and therefore nobody else is allowed to use it in any context other than mine.

Oh, and I also believe that gay marriage is mandated religiously, and therefore it absolutely MUST be called marriage and nothing else. My beliefs trump yours legally for no adequately explained reason.

Differing opinions are one thing. Bigotry that runs on insane troll logic with blatantly fallacious analogies is another thing.

So you are basically saying that we should have laws promoting the definition proposed by religious groups, over those proposed by others. We generally think of establishing religious laws as being against the 1st amendment.

Never watched Larry King when he was "younger", but in recent times he seemed a bit... delusional, to say the least.

Also, please provide a simple, logical reason that does not revolve around religion explaining why gay marriage should be banned.

I hate bringing religion into this, I really do, and I'd rather do it in Debates, but you are such a goddamn hypocrite. I explicitly told you that atheists and religious people will not have problems as long as these religious people stop interfering in other people's lives. And now you are against the legalization of gay marriage? How is it any of your concern what other people do in their private bedrooms? Are you implying that marriage is a religious institution? I could care less if a priest denies me a right to get married to my friend Steve, but I will care if the government prevents me from doing so. You are entitled to your opinion, but its people who hold your opinion that prevent people from actually having logical rights, and its religious bigots like you that cause atheists to mock and scorn you. Maybe you should learn to not delve into other people's lives before calling me out for being rude.

It's not unsignificant to gay people, and religious significance is just significance pertaining to religion. Pertinence to religion doesn't automatically render arguments against gay marriage more significant.

Yeah, infact, I think I used to have a friend who was gay who moved away, back then in my school, not very many people thought being gay was bad, now everybody uses gay as an insult, and verbaly and physically attacks anyone who is gay

Yes, clearly people now are much more anti-gay than in the past...

How old is the bible exactly?
