Right/Wrong?
I think it's right. Forbidding a homosexual from entering into a union like marriage is like forbidding a person with brown hair from getting married--genetics doesn't matter!!!
I have to go now, but please! Discuss!

LOL true.
Why don't you like to discuss it?

Because it's just too touchy for me to discuss. My views are mostly religion based, and I have other reasons that I can't really explain in words.

Gay marriage is right. Gay people can't help being gay..after all. If they're in love, then they should go for it!

Yup. I just can't see how most Christians seem to think that Jesus issued marriage as an important sacrament, and yet He wanted to bar people from joining into it. It's ignorant and foolish to think that.

I was watching Live with Regis and Kelly (no social life) and they showed a clip of Robin William's new movie, Man of the Year or something, and in the clip he was in a presidential debate and he said "Same sex marriage? Why not? No matter who's married, it's always the same sex!" LOL

I support gay marriage 100%. Love is an arbitrary emotion, and if a female happens to love another female. or if a male happens to love another male then what's wrong with them getting married? Straight people can't help falling in love with people of the opposite gender can they? No, so how can people expect homosexuals to stop themselves from loving people from their own gender?

I say live and let live.
Why deny a gay couple or anyone else for that matter, the chance to live happily ever after? As long as they treat each other right with dignity and respect.
I mean, it's those blasted Republicans mostly, who are against it! Bush, Swartzeneggar, Giuliani and Romney, they all must be cut from the same cloth!! They're all running around in packs, trying to stop gay marriage.
Makes you wonder how THEY'D feel if any of THEIR children were gay!!
Remember Anita Bryant, the one who did the Florida orange juice commercial on TV? She was a strong opponent against gay people! That is, until she found out that her own son is gay. She then had a change of heart quickly!!
Romney, unforunately, successfully got it on the ballot to be voted on next year just before he left office. They all want to take this crap with them in their bids to run for the White House!!
Just who in the Sam Hill are they to say that couples, regardless of their sexual prefrences, don't deserve to be happy?!!

My opinion is kind of mixed.
First; I think homosexuality is wrong and it isn't genetics that led someone to be gay, it's a choice no matter what people say.
But second, if they are truely happy why ruin it for them?
I really believe that homosexuality is not normal, and I know that sounds awful (cause who's to say what normal is?) but it's a choice. I'm not a religious nut but God made men and women for each other, not men for men and women for women.

Not entirely true: if homosexuality is a choice, who in their right mind would CHOOSE to live that lifestyle, where it seems everyone is out to get you? And when they're facing discrimination like Republicans like to give, why won't they just choose to be straight?
Besides, it's proven that genetics does have something to do with it. Studies show that women who have had many male children have increasing chances of having a homosexual son. Oddly it doesn't work with females, and there are some exceptions. But there are exceptions with everything. And even if it isn't genetics, how someone's raised, and their environment have some impact, as well. But it's definitely not a choice... It's like "choosing" to be a black person living next door to a KKK member lol

Where is the science to back up these findings? I'm not trying to be sarcastic, but I have seen none of these findings to hold any water.
Why not choose being gay, to some people? Most do it because they had childhood issues or were raised gay, look at the movie "Family Stone". The mom wanted the sons to be gay and only one conformed but why? Maybe I'm totally wrong and he was already genetically dispositioned to being gay but I think it was the environment in which he was raised.
Others choose to become gay because of the shock factor. What's a more effective way to rebel against your parents than to announce you're gay? I can think of a few more but those are just pertaining to me. Once they are in the lifestyle they may like it or just be so comfortable around it they don't want to leave.
There are a million reasons why someone would want to become gay...and discrimination? The last time I brought up homosexuality in a class (health) I was beaten down for not being open-minded. So who is really being discriminated against, the homosexuals (who say they have the best life because of the love) or those who are trying to bring the real homosexual world (who say homosexuals have the highest suicide rate, the most drug use and rampaging STD's in any culture) to light?
