The people spoke in the November Election. Typical Newsweek- spreading their gay agenda.

Everyone has a right to love and happiness. This issue is just one more consequence of the missery placed upon the human condition by the myths of religion. Personally, I don't care what anyone chooses to believe to give them solice or hope or whatever they get out of it, but to judge anyone else and force these views on others through bogus laws justified by personal 'religious' beliefs is just plain wrong. We have freedom of religion. Everyone should have freedom to love and commit to the partners of thier own choosing, with all the legal status equally applied. As for the Ceremonial aspect, that should be left to the Church, not the State.
You FREAKS haven't seen hate yet , but you will . The MAJORITY has voted , now crawl back into slime hole , and SHUT TO HELL UP !!!
Not so fast, bucko. We haven't had a chance to campaign to do away with the rights of the willfully ignorant yet.
Obama isn't black, He is Bi-Racial. His mother was white and father black, so technically he could be called WHITE and since he is educated and raised by his white grandparents I consider him WHITE.
no he's just a dumb ass socialist, that's going to make the economy even worse!
Even with a brother-in-law who is gay, I am against gay marriage, as is my wife. This issue is so ridiculous, and quite frankly pretty passé. It???s a little old. It is the California gay community latching on to and promoting an argument that the rest of the country is against, just like the South's argument for slavery - people holding onto an argument that was against the common good; time to let it go people. Secular Progressive agendas will destroy this country, just like an extreme conservative agenda would. This county was built on central values based in theology. I believe that if your gay you deserve all the rights entitled to marriage, but not name or a redefining of the meaning, For a group of people who understand the true value of tolerance and the lack thereof, you sure fail to see your own intolerance.
Kinda spoiled by your own special rights you and your "life partner" enjoy, ain't ya? Seems to me that the unmarried and the unmarriageable should sue the state to remove those special statutory rights, since you and your partner believe that only certain people are entitled to equal protection under the law.
What is ridiculous is that you believe the majority of adults (who are UNMARRIED) should subsidize and support special rights for your relationship simply because you demand we "value" you above everyone else. Doesn't sound very constitutional to me.
This poll is BS. Anything the gays push is BS.
I know how to love my children and not raise my son to become male cheerleaders and hair stylists. Looks like this is a San Fran Fruitcake posting board.
Sir, what happens if your children do become"gay" ? What are your actions going to be then? "Gonna take my boy out huntin?" or " Gonna get my boy to like girls like I do by doing whatever it takes.." Havent we progressed as a race to get by such ridiculous statements as the ones that you pose and the rest of the homophobic public? If you really care about your comments, you'll retract them.
I bet you do you sick infested freak- jfranksocal
Its pathetic. Next these queers will be adopting kids and creating dysfuntional familys. GOD created a man and a woman for a reason.
A child needs a father and a mother not a couple of ferries running around.
I hope your children do not "decide" to be gay because if they do who suffers you ? or them?
LOL, now the Gays are being compared to monkeys and rabbits. Let them marry, just please don't let him adopt a loving child. Geez, that is out future!! Enjoys your holidays people.
It is amazing how little people think things through to their logical conclusion: The best way to close out this discussion is to just allow homosexuals the rights they are asking for.
Assuming that homosexuality is genetic:
1) The only reason homosexuals still exist is that they have been so suppressed/repressed by heterosexuals they have forced themselves into hetero relationships which has allowed the genetic traits of homosexuality to continue.
2) If everyone (and this really would take everyone) would just give them what they want (legal and social legitimation of their relationships), the number of homosexuals who force heterosexual relationships on themselves would cease and the genetic spreading of their "nature" woud likewise cease.
3) In 100-150+ years they would simply die out.
4) Case closed.
Admittedly, this is an oversimplication but what do you expect, this is a blog post about a news article.
The reality is that homosexuality will never completely die out for 2 reasons:
1) It is not entirely genetic.
2) For those that are genetically homosexual, given the plan outlined above, the number of homosexuals will plummet and eventually they will become a fraction of a fraction of the overall population at which point we can go back to supressing their rights again like every democracy before us and they will go back to forcing themselves into hetero relationships. But at least it will give us heteros another couple thousand years of peace and quiet about the whole homosexual discussion.
The more time we waste on social issues of inconsequence (yeah, I said it), the less time we spend on dealing with the only social issues of consequence: How do we, as a world population, stop ourselves from destroying our species (via whatever catastrophe you champion be it global warming, nuclear holocaust set off by terrorists, mass epidemic, world war, widespead famine due to overpopulation, etc. etc.)?
For the record, I am hetero and love my wife dearly :). and I believe "marriage" is a religious right. I agree with those who want to separate "marriage" from civil unions. I support civil unions that afford the same rights as marriages for homosexual couples. I know it is all semantics, but that's just how I roll.
I would like to point out that roughly 10% of the animal population has always been homosexual. That they (the homosexual animals) have not "died out" is probably because it is more of a biological trait (like being born a rabbit or a cat) rather than a strictly genetic trait (like being tall or having green eyes).
Just my two cents worth ...
The same Americans that voted for the first black president, voted against gay marriage. So regardless of what the haters say, America does not support gay marriage. This issue has repeatedly been brought to a vote, and it repeatedly fails. You can whine, piss, bitch and moan all you want, it doesn't change the facts that America does not want gay marriage. You can insult religious people, call people bigots, do whatever you always do when you don't get your way. It changes nothing. And FYI, I call bullsh1t on 10% of the animal kingdom being gay. Being gay is a choice. To be gay, you engage in gay sex. Unless you are raped, sex is a consenual act. By law, if you do not make the choice to have sex you are raped. Also, gays have the same rights as straights. We can both marry people of the opposite sex, and we both cannot marry people of the sasme sex. There is no removal of constitutional rights. Your facts are skewed your view is ignorant. Wanting something to be true doesn't equal it being true. America voted, you lost, please shut the fvck up.
Here's my two cents. We live in a democracy. We voted. It passed. Get over it! Do we get a "do over" vote for the presidency because some people didn't like it? No. We're stuck with him. Just like you're stuck with the ban passing!
What about Christians. when are we the new black,. It is ok to bash Christians.And try to force their views on us, even though it is against our values. Gays are already given preferential treatment, especially in jobs.. It is gays who are intolerant of our views. And since liberals control the media, It has been a hard sell to the younger generation.Is it any wonder they support gay marriage. That is all they see on the internet and TV.
Didn't you choose your own brand of "Christianity?" And didn't you consciously choose one which advocates the stripping away of the constitutional rights of other free Americans?
And now you claim to be victimized?
Its
Public Support will never reach the point gay marrige will become a part of the American landscape. This should be evident after the prop 8 vote.
Gays keep trying to make it a civil rights issue when it is in fact a behavioral issue.
If this disfuctional behavior is to be legitimized then so should all disfuctional behavior become legitimate and that is not going to happen.
A dysfunctional behavioral issue might be a serial rapist, a child predator, or a spousal abuser. . .even a murderer. And yet you have no problem allowing them to freely marry, knowing the predator can create the very children he/she intends to abuse.
This should alert the Christian community that this is an undeniable sign of the end of this age. We should always contend for the faith and have a voice "crying out in the wilderness." Our focus should be on the age fullings and praying for strength and compasion on those deceived by this perversion. They think they were born this way, and if they were, they still have a choice. Many are born into poverty, but they make a choice not to continue. God's people are born into sin, but we make a choice to not stay in sin. Choice! That's what it is. Am I a religious zealot. You dog gone right. At least it is for a purposeful and righeous cause. I'll see God shortly, and so will we all...
Actually, you are the one with the choice to select a "religious" belief which promotes the persecution of other Americans and the removal of their constitutional rights. You CHOSE that "belief." You can also choose another one.
MORE LIBERAL MEDIA ATTEMPTING TO SPREAD THEIR ANTI-FAMILY VALUE AGENDA. HOW DOES YOUR POLL HAVE ANY VALIDITY IN LIGHT OF THE PASSAGE OF THE ONE MAN/ONE WOMAN MARRIAGE ACT IN BOTH CALIFORNIA AND FLORIDA? HINT: IT DOESN'T. WHY DON'T ALL YOU NEWSPAPERS AND MEDIA HOUNDS JUST SHUT DOWN. WE DON'T NEED YOU ANYMORE SINCE YOU CAN'T STICK TO THE ETHICS OF GOOD JOURNALISM.
And what would you know about "good" journalism? Those who are willfully ignorant continue to campaign to turn America into a land of astonishing ignorance.
Few people support the conservative agenda of promoting a caste system society with right wing ideologues on top. A minority of Americans follow your authoritarian versions of "Christianity" in which right wingers serve God only because they FEAR "him."
little leaper, interesting you should bring up the animal kingdom. It is a proven scientific fact that 10% of the animal kingdom is homosexual just like mankind. I am sure animals are not making a choice in the matter. If that doesn't tell you that homosexuality is a part of nature nothing will.
Who did you poll a bonch what do we call them now, gays. America believes in marriage between a man and a woman. Even animals mate male and female. On mentally sick would do such a thing.
homosexuality is actually very prevalent in nature.
