saw religulous last night. it wasn't as good as i wanted it to be. i felt like maher was too much on the attack. too condescending and agressive, and the movie would have been better had he let the interviewees themselves prove his point. it still had an impact on me, but i think there could have been more ( Read more... )

I'm not saying that gay marriage is right or wrong. This has nothing to do with any personal belief. My personal belief is that the government shouldn't even be involved. Marriage should have nothing to do with any law of any kind. To each their own. But since we're talking about what's considered a "right", I'm saying that God does not give the right to marriage to gays. There's not just one, but dozens of examples in the Bible that says so, Old and New Testament. There is no interpretation needed, it's very clear. Please don't think that by letting things happen as they are and not raining frogs or whatever that God condones it in some way.

If the rights given to us in the Constitution are given from the Creator (which I believe they are) then this would not be one of them. I'm not trying to be judgemental and I'm sorry if I hurt people. I'm just trying to make the most educated argument I can against marriage as an "equal right". And unfortunately for people who are protesting they are in the minority right now. Things may change in time, but that's why the ban was passed. I wasn't trying to be mean in any way to you or anyone else. I was just trying to answer your question as why it was passed - whether that's right or wrong, is up to everyone else to decide.
