I liked his earlier stuff but he's just a dried up old hag in my book now.

Reginald only had his career because of Bernie Taupin.

No - - ‘F**k You’ I am Against Gay Marriage.

I have no animus towards those who choose the gay lifestyle. None of my business but for the constant culture clash coming down on the rest of us by your demand and manipulation of the law.

Marriage is between a Man and a Woman.

You demand equality under the law and there simply isn’t any.

Are you in a commited relationship? Okay, let’s say you are.

Why should I want to rewrite all the love songs for man and women to support your idea of hate speech?

Why should I want to rewrite all the poetry for the love between a man and a woman?

Why should I want to rewrite any other romantic ideal between a man and woman who wish to become a married couple?

For that matter, you seek to legislate your equality and that will eventually mean I cannot use the Bible as the basis for my beliefs of marriage between a man and a woman?

You want to commit to each other in some permanent sense? Fine, I don’t care but it isn’t marriage in any sense of the word.

Call it whatever you want and I have no suggestions but it isn’t marriage. Your man partner is not your wife and the both of you can not be husband to each other.

Now, tell me the benefits, that are unassailable, for changing all of society to suit your need for parity through legislation which in truth will never exist.

So what happened that changed his mind?

ELTON JOHN SOLVES GAY MARRIAGE CONTROVERSY

“We’re not married,” he told the press, “Let’s get that straight. We have a civil partnership…I don’t want to be married! I’m very happy with a civil partnership. The word ‘marriage,’ I think, puts a lot of people off. You get the same equal rights that we do when we have a civil partnership. Heterosexual people get married. We can have civil partnerships”.

If it were really marriage, why do they have to put the word “gay” in front of it?

Does anyone call it straight marriage? LOL

Sorry, you can pretend all day it’s something that it’s not. Even if you get the government to agree with you.

Marriage is man and woman.

Elton John: 'F**k You' If You're Against Gay Marriage

That's an oxymoron coming from you, Elton.

Sounds like the gay mafia got to Elton

From November 2008:

Elton John is against gay marriage, says civil unions are for same sex couples

the law can not force respect.

he has always been a kook and he still is a kook. No law will change that.

"Here I am sitting with a wedding ring and I'm with my partner..

It ain't no wedding ring unless your "partner" is your wife and female.

and we have a son

something "gay partners" can't create on their own.

Thanks for posting that. I remember when he said all that and had a bit of respect for him because of it. I guess he was finally fully co-opted by the gay agenda..

He’s a shining example of a “conservative” homosexual. I suspect that his opinion has been the same all along but he thinks the “climate” has changed and he’s jumping on the bandwagon.

During the event, which raised more than $3 million for the restoration of marriage equality

WELL... One can't restore a perverted institution upon society that has never existed and can never exist -I think the proper term is imposition by force.

Regardless, I wonder just what 'they' plan on doing with the money they raise -bribe judges?

Here’s the problem. Marriage is for the family, and for kids. If one guy shoots genetic material up another man’s bum, I don’t think a baby will be in the offing.

Men and women are different. It’s that simple - two halves of a whole - in conflict with each other and completion at the same time.

If they were interchangeable, men would bleed from their asses once a month, and women . . . well who really knows about women?

I don’t think anyone wakes up one day wanting to be gay. I think gay people think that if they were just more accepted in society, they’d all feel much better about themselves.

I think they’re wrong. You can make gay the new black and make heterosexual marriage a crime and its not going to change the way they feel at night alone with their god, whoever that may be.

Religiously, I believe Satan’s out to pervert and reverse what God hath wrought. Jesus created marriage himself, and specifically called for it being between man and woman. Their union enables humans to act as God does - it gives them the ability - together - to create a person.

Between homosexuality and abortion, you have the antithesis of marriage. Men depositing their essence in the waste canal of other men - an act of utter and deliberate futility.

Demons at war with demons, however. Women would sacrifice human beings at the altar of convenience, while sodomists go in search of these same children in order to build families.

There are no telethons for homosexuality. A cure for homosexuality would imperil an entire political movement. You’d think breast cancer was killing people instantly by the hundreds based on what you see on TV.

HIV is the cure they seek. Find a cure for HIV, and suddenly being homosexual doesn’t have to be a physical death sentence the way it is now.

Especially after he played at Rush’s wedding, the gay mafia got to him.

Didn’t he say he was against “gay marriage”.

_____________

He was, but then he went to Rush’s wedding and saw how beautiful it was, and he shed a tear and decided I’m in.....

He did! He said “civil unions are for us”. Some of his leftist buddies must have had a little chat with him and got his “mind right”.

Did he say that while he was on his knees? God frowns.

>> I liked his earlier stuff but he’s just a dried up old hag in my book now.

I believe his earlier stuff was written by some guy named Bernie. His compositions are very week from what I recall hearing on the radio years ago.
