Actually -- it's currently against the "The Defense of Marriage Act" -- however it is legal in Massachusetts and Connecticut in the USA. DOMA is on Obama's repeal listing, and I would imagine it won't survive his first term. As far as religion providing the "concept" of marriage goes -- you are plainly mistaken. Originally, marriage was little more than a business arrangement between families. Religion was brought into it much later ... OH boy. How is this a against the act? Ohio doesn't infact recognize any relationships b/w persons of the same sex as a marriage. Hmm, interesting or what?

[hide=] Everyone is entitled to their beliefs, right? Yes, but quite frankly, that's stupid! It's like saying that all you have to do is write a book that names you as God and then suddenly you are God! while it may not mean you really are, if that's what you want to believe, then go for it. [bleep] that, I'm becoming an atheist now. I am reminded, somehow, of this: Me: "This appears to be written on Karl's letterhead." Mary: "Hank didn't have any paper." Me: "I have a hunch that if we checked we'd find this is Karl's handwriting." John: "Of course, Hank dictated it." Me: "I thought you said no one gets to see Hank?" Mary: "Not now, but years ago He would talk to some people." Me: "I thought you said He was a philanthropist. What sort of philanthropist kicks the snot out of people just because they're different?" Mary: "It's what Hank wants, and Hank's always right." Me: "How do you figure that?" Mary: "Item 7 says 'Everything Hank says is right.' That's good enough for me!" Me: "Maybe your friend Karl just made the whole thing up." John: "No way! Item 5 says 'Hank dictated this list himself.' Besides, item 2 says 'Use alcohol in moderation,' Item 4 says 'Eat right,' and item 8 says 'Wash your hands after going to the bathroom.' Everyone knows those things are right, so the rest must be true, too." Me: "But 9 says 'Don't use alcohol.' which doesn't quite go with item 2, and 6 says 'The moon is made of green cheese,' which is just plain wrong." John: "There's no contradiction between 9 and 2, 9 just clarifies 2. As far as 6 goes, you've never been to the moon, so you can't say for sure." Me: "Scientists have pretty firmly established that the moon is made of rock..." Mary: "But they don't know if the rock came from the Earth, or from out of space, so it could just as easily be green cheese." Me: "I'm not really an expert, but I think the theory that the Moon was somehow 'captured' by the Earth has been discounted*. Besides, not knowing where the rock came from doesn't make it cheese." John: "Ha! You just admitted that scientists make mistakes, but we know Hank is always right!" Me: "We do?" Mary: "Of course we do, Item 7 says so." Me: "You're saying Hank's always right because the list says so, the list is right because Hank dictated it, and we know that Hank dictated it because the list says so. That's circular logic, no different than saying 'Hank's right because He says He's right.'" John: "Now you're getting it! It's so rewarding to see someone come around to Hank's way of thinking." Me: "But...oh, never mind. What's the deal with wieners?" Mary: She blushes. John: "Wieners, in buns, no condiments. It's Hank's way. Anything else is wrong." Me: "What if I don't have a bun?" John: "No bun, no wiener. A wiener without a bun is wrong." Me: "No relish? No Mustard?" Mary: She looks positively stricken. John: He's shouting. "There's no need for such language! Condiments of any kind are wrong!" Me: "So a big pile of sauerkraut with some wieners chopped up in it would be out of the question?" Mary: Sticks her fingers in her ears."I am not listening to this. La la la, la la, la la la." John: "That's disgusting. Only some sort of evil deviant would eat that..." Me: "It's good! I eat it all the time." Mary: She faints. John: He catches Mary. "Well, if I'd known you were one of those I wouldn't have wasted my time. When Hank kicks the snot out of you I'll be there, counting my money and laughing. I'll kiss Hank's butt for you, you bunless cut-wienered kraut-eater." With this, John dragged Mary to their waiting car, and sped off. [/hide] antimatter nonetheless, never happen.

I'm glad someone shares my viewpoint. I'm also against being black, too. Don't get me wrong, I'm not racist, I just think "that part of them" is wrong. :roll: As in i'm against the act, but not the people. As in i wouldn't do what they do but i wouldn't not pick a guy for teams just because he's homo. If you don't understand that, then idk what else to say, or why you don't for that matter. Idc what they do, but i am against it, but do not discriminate against them as people. Its really not that hard to comprehend. :wall: The question at hand isn't "would or wouldn't you do homosexual acts?" but rather "do you think homosexuality is right or wrong?". Now just because you won't personally do something doesn't mean you consider it wrong, so why not just say "I don't think homosexuality is wrong, but I myself would never partake in it"? And if you actually do think it's wrong, give us reasons why (so we can then go on to explain why your reasons are silly). Honestly, saying you're personally against homosexuality because you won't partake in homosexual activities is like me saying I'm against people eating chocolate because I personally think it's disgusting. I said i'm against it, and i had to make the other comment because for some reason people think because you're against something, you hate everyone that does that thing. I also said why i'm against it in earlier posts...don't feel like restating soz.

I live in Ohio, where it is currently illegal for gay's to get married...that seems like a govt issue to me. Also it's a religious issue because the concept of marriage came from religion, likewise they have the right to refuse service to someone.

America is a free country. There is nothing in the Constitution that says "No Gay Marriage". There is also nothing in there giving them that right. And it's actually left to the states to decide. I say it's governmental because being married gives certain benefits that the government has to provide. There is nothing that gives me the right to sleep in a cupboard, but that isn't illegal. yes, because the govt doesn't give a darn whether you do or not. But when that same govt has to pay out benefits from their pockets, the perspective seems to change. All i'm saying is if you ran a company, you'd want things to be done a certain way, especially since anything that company deals with reflects on you. If the govt and/or religious institutes want things done a certain way, since they are paying for it, they are completely entitled to that. You know why the customer is always right? because the customer is the one paying. Pretty simple if you ask me. :wall:

35 Lolz, if we get to like 400 again, and get reset, i think i just might have to draw the line there. lolz.

Seeing as your main goal is summoning nonetheless i agree with the post earlier, but i would in fact still block the kalphites, but thats just an opinion. I think hellhounds would be nice not blocked,but if thats how you feel, then go for it. I have steels and kalphs blocked atm, and if i find another super terrible task, i'll think about it.

Um, one thing about that, marriage is a religious and governmental issue. The way I see it, if one or the other says they will not accept gay's, then they have the right to do that. Just like if i "invented" a new game, i have the right to decide the rules and the do's and don't of that game.

Everyone is entitled to their beliefs, right?

And trust me, if i hate something, i don't care who the hell hates me for hating it, i'll come right out and say it.

True that. 4got. my bad. :)
