Judge overturns California's ban on same-sex marriage

KiMare--"-Ss couples cannot 'have' children. Do you see what your denial is trying to equate?" Of course they do. They don't MAKE children...as is the case with many straight couples...which doesn't change the fact that many have children, and are excellent parents. "I listed point by point corrections to your statements." Your hateful lies are not "corrections. " "Just a note; The issue is not whether ss couples would harm marriage." Your fellow Nazis disagree, they talk CONSTANTLY of "attacks on traditional marriage" and "we need to protect traditional marriage." "The fundamental question is do they equate to marriage." They don't "equate" to marriage. They ARE marriages. Same as anyone elses'. "The only aspect is in number. That means marriage would then mean 'two people in a committed relationship'. Restricting marriage to only two for that reason is discriminatory. " You may choose to believe that, but contrary to this scummy stunt the far right keeps trying to pull, in spite of it being PROVEN false, marriage equality for gay people DOES NOT mean society will start accepting people marrying more than one person. The two aren't remotely connected. "Again, it leaves your mother and father, and your family without distinction. I find that sad." And I find it despicable that the ONLY distinction you can find for your family is in hating and attempting to destroy other families. If the only thing that made your family worthwhile was that one had a penis and one did not, what a worthless family.  (Friday May 3 | post #190847)

Ratings have nothing to do with journalistic ethics or credibility. Being "most watched" doesn't change the fact that Fox exists to promote far right propaganda, NOT facts and journalism. What is stupid is the bigotry in thinking heterosexuals or straight couples are superior to gay couples. They are not.  (Friday May 3 | post #190846)

Will Gay Marriage Pit Church Against Church?

You remain under the foolish (and intentional) MISconception that all Christians are fundamentalists.  (Friday May 3 | post #14665)

Lie. God doesn't play favorites, God loves people from Brazil, Canada or Iran just as much as people from Israel, and people of any faith or none whatsoever just as much.  (Friday May 3 | post #14663)

You have a major reading problem. That IS the reason in the STORY of Sodom and Gomorrah that it happened. Now, it IS just a story, God would never commit mass murder. But the idea that God WOULD because some of the people were gay but not for being greedy and not helping those in need shows you're no Christian at all, and don't get the Bible in the slightest except as a weapon of hate.  (Friday May 3 | post #14662)

Gay teacher fired by Catholic school claims discrimination

Homosexuality is not remotely comparable or connected to pedophilia. Being gay is NOT wrong, and this "end of days" bunkum is entirely manmade. You are NOT reading the "word of God," you're reading the writing of PEOPLE and IGNORING God's law, which is to love your neighbor. Your hate and bigotry is sinful and depraved. There are no more gay people in this generation than at any time in history. We're just more educated and tolerant...as Christ would want us to be.  (Friday May 3 | post #1128)

And you just PROVED you are the liar. NOTHING she did violated this contract. NOTHING. Your blind stupid support of Jim Crow doesn't change FACTS, and the fact is this was an illegal and immoral firing.  (Friday May 3 | post #1126)

John Corvino: There's More To Gay Sex Than Anal Sex

And unless that's happening in your driveway while you're going to work, it doesn't affect you in the slightest. I don't want to watch really old people, really fat people, my high school gym teacher or my brother having sex, either. Doesn't account for hate or discrimination against them.  (Friday May 3 | post #17)

Boy Scouts proposing to lift gay ban for youths

Fair enough, I just love the south very deeply and hate it when this stereotype gets pushed. It really blows some peoples' minds--I'm from Oklahoma, from a family with roots deep in Mississippi, Arkansas and Tennessee. I drive a truck, LOVE country music, and until recently wore my hair in a buzz. I'm a committed Christian, attend church every Sunday. So yeah...I'm a little touchy about stereotypes regarding those of us of the Southern Thing.  (Friday May 3 | post #19)

Same-sex marriage becomes legal in Rhode Island

And yet another moron who assumes that if you reject bigoted idiocy you must be gay. Bad news, little boy...I'm not gay. I also oppose racism, do you assume that means I'm black?  (Friday May 3 | post #54)

The ONLY reason they are not blocked is that far right puritans like yourself are PREVENTED in your attempts to do so, and they ARE blocked for millions who cannot afford them, and the right's fighting desperately to drastically INCREASE those numbers by not including them in health plans, which cannot possibly be justified. And that you're still prattling on about Benghazi shows you're nothing but a propaganda tool. Total non-issue.  (Friday May 3 | post #53)

The slave masters are right wing nutjobs like you who want to give every advantage to the wealthy and screw working people at every turn. If you care about our kids, stop gutting public education and our environment. The debt is about 50 miles down on the list of what's important to our kids' future, the ONLY reason the right pushes this BS "issue" is to promote austerity, which will cause MASSIVE harm to the children you hypocritically pretend to care about.  (Friday May 3 | post #1118)
