    How about another perspective:

    What are your arguments against hetero marriage:

    1. The modern version is not normal, most of the world today, and throughout history, families have lived alongside extended family. Mum / Dad, 2 kids walled up in seperate dwellings is unhealthy. It hinders childrens social development and leads to an increase in incestual relationships / activities.

    2. Adults interferring sexually with children, is more than anywhere else likely to come from immediate family. The family unit fuels pedophilia.

    3. Its not natural, no other animal species gets married before procreating. No one knows which animals mate for life,we just know which mate for life during the study. No one has every followed a statistically significant amount of penguins around for every second of their lives, and if someone did they couldnt be sure if their actions were introducing an element of bias.

    4. Is it better for a girl to be raised by a female and a male, or two males? Is it better for a female to be raised by two males sexually attracted to females, or by two males that arent? Is it better for a girl to be raised by two males not sexually attracted to girls or by two females that are? If it doesnt make a difference then marriage is irrelevant? If it does make a difference, then what is that difference, and which combinations are better, which are worse. What if girls are better off being raised by a pair of married male homos.

    5. After a number of kids are under the belt, how many moms secretly want a gay son so he's still around to take her shopping when she's 60. How many Dads secretly want a tomboy daughter that will grow up to run a company and pay for his retirement. Trouble is they dont know what they are doing and push too hard and its just as likely to train the kids away form the parents

    I was talking with god just the other day as we were discussing some passages in the bible when the subject of homosexuality came up and she was telling me that it was just like these liberal, liberal democracies to let the will of the people to decide on whether it ‘s a basic right or not.

    the purpose for legalizing gay marriage is so they can tax gays

    at the moment gays can't be penalised for have relationships.

    they meet form a relationship and when they part the other partner can't start claiming their rights and running off with the other persons hard earned money. you don't have the situation where you get a gold digger trying to run off with a fortune because the law has been twisted into a hungry creature, hungry for money and power. because relationships between gays aren't recognised there is little to nothing the legal system can do to them - they find it hard to destroy them.

    gay people can laugh at the legal system trying to screw them over

    one of the biggest supporters for gay marriage is the legal system that wants to get its hooks into another section of the population.

    Funny, i'm sure they are plenty of gay men who hate people hitting on them

    not right that just because of their proclivity others should treat them as a human punch bag.

    I don't see by the same basic morale standing, it's fair to prohibit gay people marrying. I mean. since when did falling in love come with a rule book or set of instructions.

    Do you mean "moral"...as I have heard "potting the brown ball" was used as a morale booster during WW1.

    You are so wrong.

    For one, if gay people decieded they wanted to have a civil partnership, their rights would be equal as a married couple.
    It is the word "marriage" that is the controversy.

    Civil and domestic partnerships DO NOT have the same rights as married couples in the U.S. Marriage itself is only part of the controversy because Christians have hijacked the institution and claim it as their own. Homosexuality itself is the center of contention.

    I like how sometimes the discriminatory system in various aspects can be used against itself, example:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LadVskV3goM"]YouTube- Going to the Chapel

    "Like the fuck, who am I supposed to marry? Apparently I can marry anyone, it just depends on which driver's license I bring"

    And those gay women probably hate you hitting on them and their girlfriends, too. Why are you worried about another person's sexual preference?

    I will pout until it is so!

    Should I pout for the broccolini, too, or is that pushing it?

    the purpose of gay marriage is to make money by the breakdown of said relationships, the legal system makes a motza from relationship breakdown - no more, no less.

    Fuck the insitution of marriage, period.

    People should be able to set-up social contracts with whoever they please. If two single women with kids want to create a living contract in which one acts in a domestic capacity, while the other acts in a "breadwinner" capcity, who am i or you to tell them no?

    and notice i never mentioend anything about the sexual orientation of these women, because it doesn't fucking matter.
