    Dumb reason. If it made a guy and his mom happy to get married, could they get married too? I mean they arent hurting anyone else and its not our business, right? Oh wait society has told you that is wrong and if you disagree you are a sicko. Yet being gay was just the same thing before, so whats to stop us seeing a dude marry his mum in a church in 50 years time? Or a dad marry his adult children in a group ceremony? Being happy is not a good enough reason otherwise your creating a scenario where everything goes.

    OP is an idiot if he thinks people cant be gay and religious.

    Also, the marriage certificate is not a religious ceremony, but a civil one. A civil union does not carry the same legal weight as a marriage (in terms of taxes, hospital visitation, power of attorney, etc.). SMFH, why dont you just google the civil benefits of marriage and save jeff some bandswitch?



    I am not religious, yet I got married. My ceremony was not religious in the slightest.

    Why do you find gay people weird? Are you freaked out by the flamboyant type? You probably know a lot of gay people, but they don't advertise it.

    I have gay friends, and i have told them, the thought of being attracted to a man is just weird to me.

    They aren't flamboyant tho, can't stand those f*gs

    This also civil unions aren't recognized by all states so you can get a civil union in one state but it will not be recognized in another state.

    I think same sex marriages should be allowed or in the very least allow civil unions the same rights as marriages.

    Gay "marriage" is not marriage. Slightly annoying when people say it is.

    Yes it is. You or other religious entities are not the sole authority on the definition of marriage.

    People that get married because they love each other doesn't reason like that, they get married because they love each other immensely and if they didn't think that the other one isnt the one they want to spend the rest of their life with they wouldnt have even got married. That may be naive but love has that effect.

    Or they just do it because someone had to get pregnant.

    You are making the mistake of thinking every religion is against homosexuality, even the Bible is open for interpretation, so gay people want to get married because they love each other and/or for financial reasons.

    I do not see the correlation between religion and marriage.

    Gay marriage = real.

    God = not real. Slightly annoying when you pretend he is.
