    Default Yep, gay marriage will definitely ruin the institution of marriage </sarcasm>

    "Well, that didn't take long. TMZ is reporting that after only 72 days of marriage, Kim Kardashian is going to file for divorce from her Minnesota-raised husband Kris Humphries sometime today. Humphries played basketball for the University of Minnesota Gophers and grew up in Hopkins.

    The reality TV show starlet and professional basketball player's nuptials made for a two-night special that recently aired on E! And by the way Humphries was treated on the show, it should come as no surprise that the two aren't living happily ever after."

    "We know that no one ever seizes power with the intention of relinquishing it. Power is not a means, it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship. The object of persecution is persecution. The object of torture is torture. The object of power is power." -O'Brien, Nineteen Eighty-Four

    Unfortunately you cannot avoid the Kardashians. True definition of media whores. These two met and wed within six months? This never had a chance.

    So liberal Hollywood culture treats the institution of marriage like it's toilet paper, so society should flush the institution down the toilet?

    Were they media whores like the Kardashians who lived their life in the public eye and always have to be making news to keep themselves relevent?

    I better go and file, I forgot that there were gay people getting married somewhere and that it was destroying all marriages everywhere. Those selfish people, them.
    Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
    - -- Aristotle

    Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.
    - -- The Buddha

    It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.
    - -- Aristotle

    Hollywood? From the backwoods of Mississippi, to the lakes of Michigan, straight folks marry and divorce like changing clothes, but want to get their panties in a wad when gays or lesbians suggest doing the exact same thing. Such hypocrisy warrants exposure. Except, from what I've seen, gay and lesbian relationships tend to be more stable and long lasting.

    The point is that its not about who can and cant get married to eachother that matters, its how the individuals treat the institution that upholds it or not.

    Liberals have been attacking marriage for decades; again, that's not an argument to justify additional attacks. Do you have any evidence to justify your last sentence?

    Since we're talking about an institution honored by society because of the benefits that it gives society, the issue is how society treats the institution.

    Are you denying that Hollywood culture is liberal?
