Quote: vTell you what, lets put it to a vote here today. Who here thinks that our "crumbling countries" should save themselves by penalizing gays and shifting our policies to be more like that magical land where dreams come true; Turkey.Well, there is no "penalizing" the gays here. If they, like had the rights and privilages to marriage, and you'd take them away all of a sudden, that could be seen as "penalizing" the gays, or anyone else for that matter of fact.
But not granting them a privilage they never had...A privilage which never had any relevence to them.
Besides, I never said Turkey was a magical land. In Turkey, gay marriage is not a topic of discussion, it never was and never will be. Tis' just in accordance with our good customs, culture and traditions.
Even transvestites in Turkey comply with these.
Quote:Don't be shy now. Remember, if gays are allowed to marry civilization will cease to be!!!You're distorting my words.
But giving gays this privilage means giving others a similar privilage, all the while discrediting the people to whom this privilage was originally aimed at.
When this happens, the institution slowly crumbles. So does society.
Quote:I mean... I'm not sure where hes getting examples of this happening from but anyway, choose wisely. :-)Well, the fact that no society has incorporated anyone but a man and a woman in a marriage should actually speak for itself.
