  @ Patty

  Take a logic class. The burden of proof lies with the one making a positive claim, such as “God exists.“ A negative claim like ”God does not exist” is the default assumption and requires no proof, only to be proven wrong.

  Furthermore, taking religion out of our government, schools, etc. is no more oppressive than you trying to do the opposite. Get a grip.

  Our country was born out of revolution and the idea that a government is to suit the best interests of its people; if it is not doing so, the people practically have a responsibility to change it. If America has decided to push you into a corner, you can make whatever claims you want about what our country was founded upon, but it won’t save you.

  Do you even have a high school diploma, with that kind of writing? Also you don’t sound very Christ-like right now.

  Why don’t you take your own advice, since things obviously aren’t going your way, ya big crybaby?

  Even Theblaze thought your comment was too stupid and hateful to exist on their site… I had a hearty laugh.

  (cont.) language we use. So no, I will not be happy getting a civil union, I will get a government marriage. No church needs to perform a ceremony for us, of course not, but outside of that we deserve to be treated the same as any other married couple.

  Gay adoption/surrogate motherhood/sperm donations etc. is a whole different sticky situation, but I firmly believe a same sex couple should not be automatically turned away from raising a child. What matters is how parent(s) love and raise the child, not their sex. And by the way, there is no increased likelihood of the child being gay, if that is a concern. When my lover and his wife separated, his little daughter reacted so beautifully; she still saw him for the loving father he’d always been, and this innocent child understood HIS life but NOT her mother’s hatred. All her friends, who had always liked him, reacted the same way. Thank god that happened too, because I don’t know if he could have handled the blow of his daughter rejecting him. After having to live with her mother for a short while because of the courts, they let her decide who she wanted to live with. Oh, and her grades skyrocketed and she was much less of a trouble maker after some time living with her gay dad, know why? Because he was an exceptionally caring, understanding, and intelligent dad. That’s what matters.

  (cont.) cannot fathom how unintelligent you have to be to think pedophilia, rape etc. have any place in this discussion.

  3. This is where I lose you, it’s like you suddenly do a 180 from being incredibly reasonable and logical. You stop backing what you say up. Why is homosexuality wrong? You don’t seem to be making a religious argument against it, and try not to commit the naturalistic fallacy (equating what is “natural” or “normal” to what is moral is a logic no-no.) The “gay lifestyle” is nothing but having relationships and families just as heterosexuals do, with someone we are able to love. Why should your brother or anyone else in the world be denied that? To love and be loved, have companionship, have sexual intimacy, these are all things that any healthy human being needs and deserves in life. Telling someone they’re probably gay for liking a football player sounds ridiculous and yes, wrong. Not that it has any possibility of turning your son gay, orientation develops extremely early on, but it may unnecessarily confuse him for a few years. But the so called “gay agenda” is equality and acceptance, and thankfully you are right about it growing.

  Government partnerships are called marriages; extending the right to get married to two of the same sex does not require a different term. “Civil union” is nothing but “separate but equal” which we both know cannot last, and also a way of embedding discrimination and a lower status for us in the very langua
