How do you make the case for same sex marriage?
#8
RE: How do you make the case for same sex marriage?
I think most of us are on the same page when it comes to the no-brainer aspect of same-sex marriage, but that doesn't really address Tara's question. I've given it some thought and I'm wondering if an equal rights angle might help? I know there are a lot of people - too many perhaps - who have got it into their heads that two people who wish to be join together in a loving marriage, but who just happen to be of the same gender, are somehow 'demanding' special treatment, more rights than so-called 'traditional' married couples when all they're asking is to be allowed the same basic rights that traditional married couples already get by default. .We had a particularly unpleasant exchange here just a few months ago on this very topic.

Well, it might be a start anyway. Any use to you?
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'
