Progress...

[reverendjeremiah]

Thats the kind of progress I like to hear.

I have never understood why atheism is so closely tied to political liberalism. You call this progress, but progress towards what? Progress alone means nothing.

Translation: Why do atheists disagree with my bronze age religion?!? We need to regress back to the bronze age! My book of myths should be legislated.

I don't support gay marriage because the legal benefits given to married couples are not designed for a gay marriage. Couples are given those benefits as a way of rewarding them for creating a more solid platform to raise new upcoming citizens within. Kind of a "you are helping us all my being married and raising your children in a marriage so here is some financial help." Since gay couples do not raise children the perks should not apply to them. I look at it like the fact that I can't get maternity leave from my work. Is this unfair, I don't believe so because it is designed for moms, not guys like me. If gays want to have a marriage ceremony, there is no law stopping them from doing that (although I think forcing churches to do it crosses the line between church and state). Though I would rather the government just get out of the marriage business as well rather than open it up to homosexual and multiple partner marriages.

Im calling you out on this right now..how can gay parents not be able to raise children?

That is, unless, Christians like yourself make laws where gays cannothave children (wether from a previous hetero marriage or adoption).. your argument is such crap! Sure, gays can have the ceremony, but because of hateful deluded fucks like you they dont get legal standing like straight marriages.

Also, please dont act like the only reason you oppose it is to be in favor of the insurance companies... that is so lame..its so..WALDORK!
