Supreme Court Same Sex Marriage Argumet

[Anima]

Unlike you, I don't get my panties in a twist over people marrying each other.  If you seriously can't see the difference between marriage equality and issues that have real-world impact like ISIS or nuclear proliferation, then you're right that I was wrong to play the special needs card.  You are clearly not in their league.

So how did you determine what issues have a "real world impact"? What criterion?

It cannot be imminence, as it is unlikely Iran, ISIS, or Global Warming will have an impact in the next few moments or years. I cannot be severity, as Iran and ISIS are a regional problem not effecting the world, and global warming will make habitable zones in inhospitable areas while making habitable areas inhospitable (this is of course ignoring the evolution of species to their environment. Who knows the next dominant species of the planet may be one Global Warming environmental change away.)

I understood this to be what we were waiting to see; which issues would have a real world impact and which are just bigoted fears of possibilities. I have been told by many here that to act otherwise is to act upon a slippery slope of what MAY be.

If we are to condone conduct until it has a "real-world impact" than, as said earlier, we are not justified in endeavoring to stop Armageddon any more than Gaymageddon. Otherwise we should act in order to stop a negative potentiality rather than risk it becoming a reality.

So again I ask are we to act upon the MAY, or wait?
