I agree there should be equal rights.
But...what was the four letter censored word in the topic title?
how the hell is marriage a public declaration? cause they have rings to indicate that they are married? if so then gays can just do that, gays can hold hands in public to show the whole world their love for eachother, gays can spend their whole lives together and die happy.
im against marriage all together but i cant help but feel that the only reason GLAAD fought for marriage was the sole fact that straight people got them too.
the people that are against it think that marriage should be between a man and a woman. but in reality the religious connotations of marriage have been thrown out for centuries now. its just a way to earn tax breaks.
I don't really see what the fuss is about it beyond the fact that it goes against some archaic religious texts.
i think the fact that marriage is sacred with god and god doesnt believe in homosexuality, so all christians usually have a problem with people that go aganst god like that.premier111
even when the marriage is performed by elvis in vegas?

It's not sacred if you don't get married in a church, and remarriage is allowed, which many churches aren't happy about (eg catholics).
i just dont understand the whole problem behind gay marriage....it's such an easy fix....give gay people the right to be given the same rights and advantages of a marriage contract that straight people have...but give churches the right to turn gay people down for an actual religious ceremony, because if they deem it wrong they should not be forced to give them the ceremony....i just dont see the argumentjohnnyv2003
Exactly. Legalise gay marriage and a couple of years from now every one will have stopped caring.

I'm all for gay marrige the only people who argue againts gay marriges are religous people. ( atlest that's what I have seen.)
I honestly don't understand why anyone gives two shakes about whether or not two other strangers gay or straight) get married.
The only thing I can think of is that maybe some straight people feel like a gay marriage undermines the sanctity of their own marriage. Frankly, I think that's pretty ridiculous.
Alright just no, the reason I am against gay marrage is because it's completely contradictory. Just accept the domestic partnership, basically the same thing. Marrage is a religious thing, and homo sexuality is a sin therefore what the hell. I'm not homophobic either, get your domestic partnerships and be happy.-R3Vo
As with most of the bible the minor mentions of homosexuality are very vague. I have 4 gay friends, 1 couple has been together for over 20 years the other about 15. Now they pay taxes just my wife and I do and deserve equal treatment in the 21st century. Anytime this argument comes up people always leave out the parts of the bible that we have deemed barbaric, but not this one. Insane and completly unfair. Government and laws should not be run on a 2000 year old book written when the world was flat and it was a "sin" and crime to say the earth revolved around the sun.

Yeah... what? I think he misunderstood what I was saying. What I was saying was Gay or Straight, marriage is wack. Like everyone else already stated, marriage is no longer sacred now that it has been basically commercialized. People only marry for the extra tax benefits.
I do have a problem with i because of my religious beliefs, but that doesnt mean i'm a homophobe or hate homosexuals. I just believe marriage is a sacred union between a man and a women. Sorry if I offended anyone, its just my belief. I love everyone and believe everyone ahould have certain equal rights, same sex marriage is just one i feel strongly againstJoelo8112002
Your personal beliefs shouldn't get in the way of another persons happyness, you should be able to set them ashide to see the bigger picture.

Exactly. God isn't going to think any less of you if gays get married. You are not the one going to hell so what does it matter to you?
