1) Being gay is not natural. Real
Americans always reject unnatural things like eyeglasses, polyester, and air
conditioning.
2) Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay, in the
same way that hanging around tall people will make you tall.
3)
Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy behaviour.
People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has legal standing and
can sign a marriage contract.
4) Straight marriage has been around a long
time and hasn't changed at all; women are still property, blacks still can't
marry whites, and divorce is still illegal.
5) Straight marriage will be
less meaningful if gay marriage were allowed; the sanctity of Brittany Spears'
55-hour just-for-fun marriage would be destroyed.
6) Straight marriages
are valid because they produce children. Gay couples, infertile couples, and old
people shouldn't be allowed to marry because our orphanages aren't full yet, and
the world needs more children.
7) Obviously gay parents will raise gay
children, since straight parents only raise straight children.
8) Gay
marriage is not supported by religion. In a theocracy like ours, the values of
one religion are imposed on the entire country. That's why we have only one
religion in America.
9) Children can never succeed without a male and a
female role model at home. That's why we as a society expressly forbid single
parents to raise children.
10) Gay marriage will change the foundation of
society; we could never adapt to new social norms. Just like we haven't adapted
to cars, the service-sector economy, or longer life spans
