10 Reasons Why Gay Marriage is Wrong:<--note the sarcasm
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) 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.
4) Straight marriage has been around a long time and hasn't changed at all; after all, 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 Britney 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. And anything not supported by religion MUST be made illegal--that's why we live in a theocracy like America, and not some land of freedom like Red China.
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) Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy behavior. All hell would break loose-- People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has legal standing and can sign a marriage contract !!
