Senate approves historic legislation to protect same-sex marriages

[PostmodernProphet]

if that's all you have, grammar nazism and 'just the way it is' mentality, you have not shown yourself to be smarter than anyone, except maybe evince.

dude....there is no greater grammer "nazism" than to say from hereon, everyone must change the meaning of "marriage" to include same sex relationships.......if two men want to have a relationship that is their business......if they want me to pretend its something it isn't, fuck off.....

[SmarterthanYou]

no, but civilization itself is premised upon some kind of agreed upon framework for behavior, aka morality, whether derived from a specific religion or from more generalized system of some kind of cooperative behavior.

like no murdering....etc.

and I agree that humanity, or civilization, has morals, but morality can be subjective. i.e. no murdering, yet capital punishment is sanctioned and approved..........

[PostmodernProphet]

my statement was that government had no business dealing with marriage, period

so why do you support the government dealing with marriage?.....my point is the government and the gays can pretend their new laws have meaning......they don't.....its all pretend and we should just ignore it........

pretending it's something that it isn't? I ask again, without the ad hom, WHAT IS MARRIAGE??????? if you can't answer that, just say so.

[PostmodernProphet]

nowhere is that a requirement in humanity. There are people out there that don't believe in God, but do have morality.

sure.....you've chosen how you want to live your life......you have a morality......that will serve you well as long as you live......its afterwards that you are fucked.......not my problem.......

[PostmodernProphet]

stop being a cunt......marriage is what it always was and always will be.......the fact the government pretends it now includes same sex relationships hasn't changed that.......

im open to eliminating it


that conflict doesn't 'disprove all government' or whatever you think.

so you are fine with laws against murder generally?

for the record?

Marriage is a word that had no place in the law as it has implications that are not under the purview of the law.

We should refer to them in the law as "civil unions," and any two people who wish to enter one should have the right to do so if the state wished to recognize them for anybody at all.

I don't support it at all, which is why in the beginning I said it was a bullshit attempt at a law because it is covered under the full faith and credit clause

[PostmodernProphet]

Either Trump was elected or he was not elected.

poor mindless child......neither Trump or Biden had been elected president at the time Obama was in office........it that is the sum total of your defense of Obama's massive economic failure, you are less than petty.....

[SmarterthanYou]

stop being a cunt......marriage is what it always was and always will be.......the fact the government pretends it now includes same sex relationships hasn't changed that.......

so you have no answer, other than ad homs. all you had to say.

same as I am with laws against rape, child abuse, and theft. But understand that I don't need a law against rape to tell me that rape is immoral and evil.

Laws are made for consequences for one’s actions, they do not determine morality or evil.

then why are you defending it.....

I agree
