* It is significant to note that 18 months after same-sex “marriage” arrived in Canada (principally as a result of court decisions in Ontario and British Columbia), more than 95% of adult Canadian gays have chosen to ignore their new legal rig

It forces the public schools to propagandize in favor of this sicko perversion to children. That’s a violation of the most basic family rights. We’re also now seeing dating services hauled into court in an effort to force them to provide same-sex match-ups. Recently in New Mexico, a photographer was fined for refusing to film a lesbian commitment ceremony, and they don’t even yet have pervert “marriage” there.

Homosexual acts are unnatural. There’s no reason why these deviant, sick “relationships” should be honored with the term “marriage”. A man can’t marry another man any more than he can marry a water buffalo or a folding chair.

Marriage is one of the ways society celebrates and legally sanctions the natural, healthy, and normal bonding of the opposite sexes. Two boys pretending to be a boy and girl don’t count. It cheapens and demeans the very idea of marriage to treat these unnatural relationships as normal.

They don’t WANT to really get married. They wanted to upset the apple cart by claiming the RIGHT to get married.

Just like ‘Loretta’ in Monty Python’s Life Of Brian is a man who, through no fault of the Romans, wants the RIGHT to have a baby even though there is no uterus.

What are two gay men going to do, get married so they aren’t “living in sin” in the eyes of God and the world?

An adult CANNOT marry anyone he or she chooses. Close relations are prohibited by law (even for consenting adults) as are multiple marriages (bigamy).

If your “soulmate” is already taken, then you’ll just have to find ANOTHER soulmate. There are 6billion people in this world. If the love of your life is 1 in a million, there are 6,000 people just right for you.

Hunting for pairing up with your friends’ girlfriends, while not married, isn’t a nice thing to do either.

So, plenty of people every day rule out encounters and relationships with people that they are “attracted” to for any of a number of societal reasons.

Can’t show you really love someone without the sexual aspect? Then I guess they cannot honestly love their parents, siblings, God, or dog.

With the change in the law that they CAN get married, do employers still give unmarried homosexual couple medical benefits?

That’s the deal, it’s not that they want to get “married” - they just want to destroy the special status that our society gives to the basic unit of civilized society.

So can two celebate roommates of the same sex (say old folks) marry to share medical retirement benefits?

And why can’t two elderly brothers do the same?

See how ridiculous this all gets?

Such marriages become nothing more than business partnerships for roommates. Might even be able to make your sublet of your apartment worth more. Just get a prenup signed before the wedding.

They would continue to rush the battering ram against society’s rules.

Once “married”, they would push for adoption by same sex married couples (something that was harder to argue as an unmarried couple).

Once “married”, no employer could deny the same sex partner benefits.

Could a church legally (especially in Canada which does NOT have our constitution) refuse the church membership of a same sex “married” couple? Could the church refuse to perform a same sex wedding ceremony? Can the church be required to celebrate sin?

Except feminists pushing the sex positive agenda have taught women to be Lesbians Until Graduation when they are in college. Some never leave the life.

A Monogamous Relationship defined By GLADD is 3 or fewer partners at one time.

Homosexuals hope to destroy institution of Marriage not embrace it.. Read Humane Vitae of 1968 By Pope Paul VI

More gay dudes=more women for me to choose from.

Point well taken here. A brutal anti-global warming spring here in Northern Ontario. Suddenly it got warm. What happened? Numerous female persons throwing off winter wear. The female form divine and it seems they could not wait to prove their attributes. Walking around like it was like mid-summer. ( saucy me- laughs).

I had thought that the numbers from Europe would be similar, and you just demonstrated it. This, after a decade!! It's been a couple of years for Canada, and a year since Massachusetts, at least...

These low numbers are very telling. They indicate that it wasn't actually getting "married" which was the primary interest all along, but something else, which as I stated, was an "in your face" assault on traditional Christianity...

Once you start the understand the big picture of the battle of the worldviews, the culture war, and yes, Good vs Evil in the world,

you start looking at these microissues in a different way.

Traditional values are what got us to where we are today (or were, several decades ago), starting with Abraham & Moses.

Then, under various feel good, sound good, egalitarian intended policies, instituted by force on a public that inherently resisted, these values are getting eroded.

Every human has the set of 6 right values written into his very being. These are on the second tablet. Those who seek to undermine those values with the end goal of moral depravity and moral anarchy, find various avenues of attack - mostly under some beautiful, high minded patina.

Evil seldom appears to be ugly - remember that. And the left never does anything openly, always under some cover or with some shield.

exactly

then after they went for adoption to catholic charities

there were so many places those homo’s could have gone but no they went to a place knowing they would be refused.

they now are doing it again in the schools, making it law that parents do not have a right to know that teachers can tell kids about gays, that lifestyle etc, even going as far as saying boys it’s OK to be dressing as girls.

They went to court to be allowed to go in the paddies day parade in Boston year after year until they were allowed

Now that parade is about irish heritage not saying your gay but of course gays can’t help themselves to get in peoples face and then they say in the next breath hey what I do is my business

Of course the media won’t report on this in this way

the media should get to these gay parades and let the public see their disgusting ways and you can bet a higher 5 will vote against this marriage

There was a man in Massachusetts last year who got caught having sex with an animal , he loved it

No restrictions at all on marriage let anyone and everyone marry each other, why not hey

No govt laws then might as well in the 1500’s or something

correct

This is not just baout marriage which some liberterians seem to think

though one liberterian said he thinks the govt shouldn’t get involved even if a man marries a sheep
this about where do we go after this, adoption, then benefits, teaching at school

alreadt having an impact by some schools now saying that they will not do mothers day or fathers day as some children might have two mums or two dads

so what’s next do we get rid of those days too in the future

the gays will not stop and ignoring this problem or saying so what will have a huge impact on this country

ah a little more

they then the original gays who forced this issue in massachusetts wen to other states and said they want a divorce
those states said hey we don’t recognise this marriage

hence the other states are now in disarray

I suspect they never wanted to marry as half of them infact over half of them went and got divorces in other states

Oh some are very aware of their actions. Some see it as a challenge to knock down society's mores. Some have no tolerance for the status quo. They found their parents’ home life to be “boring” and wanted no part of the orderly world.

A lot of malcontent agitators aren't seeking an isolated change. They want to upset the apple cart. They don't always have something to “replace” it with but their fellow travelers do and they are as restrictive in human thought as those they claim to oppose.
