I really don't care if people straight, bisexual, or gay, I'll accept them for who they are. As long as their not trying to come on to me, then I'm good with them. #SupportingGays <3
So what if a woman or a woman-to-man transgender comes on to you? Why does that bother you so much? Just politely decline and go along with your life. No need to be pre-emptively aggressive.
You shouldn't really have an opinion over same-sex marriage unless it directly affects you. Unless you're the one getting married to a member of your same sex, this shouldn't cross your mind, whether you support it or oppose it. It's just none of anyone's damn business. Focus on you and getting your life sorted out.
Equal human rights, in the United States of America, should matter to EVERYONE! This (gay marriage) is one more discrimination barrier that is getting knocked down.
Society is progressing forward.
Get out of your minuscule bubble of "white young American male", and start thinking macro!
I matters to me but face it, if everyone did just let things that don't have anything to do with them, then there wouldn't be this discrimination in the first place. It's okay to care, of course, but people having an "opinion" on what OTHER people should and should not be doing is what starts these "bans" on something that should be a right to anyone.
Who the hell is objecting to gay divorce? I'm personally objecting to the idea that the only thing we ought to care about is that people who marry might or might not get divorced. Who cares? It's part of marriage, but why do we care? Why should we care? I just don't understand why this is in any way relevant to the discussion.
@Mesonfielde You and the rest of the downvotes apparently. Whenever I encounter a traditionalist who hates gay marriage, I always tell them "Why? With gay marriage comes gay divorce." It's often very effective for them to open their minds up.
Well if you don't like gay marriage so much either A-move somewhere else or B-don't have one like the rest of the straight people who aren't whining about it. Again the whole legalizing it wasn't generally to make straights unhappy.
Well, the idea is to keep redefining marriage, to include marriage with minors, marriage that involves more than two people, all kinds of open and modified marriages and so on. And then they will say that we don't need marriage at all, because anything can be marriage. I do not believe for a second that a society that has descended into such relativism and utter absence of basic institutions can survive. Nobody is preventing homosexuals from loving each other, living together, or being happy. The real issue is that those who push for homosexual marriage really want to destroy not only marriage, but every institution that has worked and sustained civilisation for thousands of years. It will not stop at homosexual marriage. The minute that battle is over, they will invent a new one, and then another one, and so on. These people will never stop, until they have completely destroyed society.
That is the most bullshit overused argument ever. Minors/ animals/ and objects don't have the ability or rationality to consent to marriage or any act stemming off of it. You can't compare two grown fully functioning consenting adults to children or animals.
Also the idea of marriage is not some grand historic spiritual ceremony, it was CREATED and manufactured by society…just like birthday parties and Christmas, so it can't really be desecrated since it holds no actual importance, people get married because they want to celebrate their love.
Yes, marriage was created because it serves the most important function in society. That is why we should not let Marxists destroy it. They do argue that sex with minors is normal (what else isn't normal for them anyway?). Also, the other day a polygamist demanded 'equality' and applied to have his 'marriage' with two women recognized. If you think for a second that redefining of marriage is over, you haven't been paying attention. They want to destroy it by constantly redefining it until there is no content left in it. And then we will fall apart. It's all a part of the same project of moral relativism and destruction of every single functioning institution in society that Marxists push for. Have you noticed that they openly declare that marriage is an evil institution of oppression, yet they champion homosexual marriage? What do you think really motivates them?
Let me tell you why: credibility. Most people on this site have none. I don't have much either. So I'd suggest writing from a less personal/less first-person perspective. I'm just trying to help.
whatever she did she sparked a debate and an exchange of ideas on the subject. you're right, it isn't about credibility. the point of giving someone "your take" instead of "your findings" is that it invites others to give their takes. It's about writing something that engages and gets people thinking and comfortable enough to respond.
Well now you're just arguing syntax. Every good writer knows that an opinion is naturally an opinion and you can leave out "I"s to make the writing sound better, but she's 15, probably still in school; it's highly unlikely she's a professional writer and knows her theoretical linguistics. Just as well, this myTake includes personal information (I'm not a lesbian, I am christian), and doesn't use much other use of "I" besides telling about herself, making it perfectly acceptable writing.
Besides all that, she did a good job of expressing her take. If you wanted a professional opinion, myTakes aren't exactly the place to go anyways.
Well, I meant EVEN if she ONLY took out the personal pronouns but never mind people, I guess you're right that this isn't a place for professional opinions.
I don't like the thought of gay marriage, and I certainly don't want one myself, but I don't want to tell other people who they can and can't be. Not everyone is going to be a Christian, so it's stupid to make everyone follow the rules of one religion. I'm ok with people getting a divorce, so shouldn't I be ok with gay marriage, too?
I hear a lot of christians say "The bible was written so long ago they don't apply now" even though what their saying isn't true. They use that as an excuse to defy what God says I think. If you believe what God says is true about gay shouldn't you try to help them not encourage them... I really don't know... it's like um a gay couple in a christian church. I don't think that would be pleasing to God but everyone has their own views
Oh look, another 15yo girl writing a wall of text just to defend gays. I have this feeling wich i can bet my life that you watch some sort of gay anime/porn and thats the main reason why you defending them this bad.
1st of all please fix your grammar it's quite annoying that you type like a five year old 2nd of all I don't know why I would write a myTake about such a serious topic just because of anime, but if that's what you want to bet your life on go right ahead.
Also, you can't really call yourself Christian, if you don't beleive what you follow. It's like an atheist believing in God, they're not atheist are they? Or a Muslim who believes in Jesus. Or Hindus believing in just one god.
people can still be religious, for just one rule being broken dosen't mean much. well thats my opinon. maybe to you its a lot diffrent. in my life i wasn't raised on religion, yes i find it a beautiful thing to follow, and its very intresting.

Jeez sorry... I just thought I'd share my opinion on this considering it's obviously not dying down anytime soon... sorry if I offended you.
Relax, I'm not offended. You're okay.

With gay marriage comes gay divorce. I think gays ought to face the same consequences we straights have to if they make the decision to get married.
Odd, 3 downvotes say 3 people don't support gay marriage.
They do. That is the point.
No shit, Sherlock. Do you want a cookie or something?
@Mesonfielde If they don't support gays being able to divorce, then why would they support gay marriage?
That comes with marriage. It's just an unnecessary way of looking at it. It's like seeing life as nothing but a way to die.
@Mesonfielde Lousy comparison. Death is inevitable, whereas divorce is simply possible.
Great. It is still irrelevant.
@Mesonfielde as are the objections to gay divorce
Who the hell is objecting to gay divorce? I'm personally objecting to the idea that the only thing we ought to care about is that people who marry might or might not get divorced. Who cares? It's part of marriage, but why do we care? Why should we care? I just don't understand why this is in any way relevant to the discussion.
@Mesonfielde You and the rest of the downvotes apparently. Whenever I encounter a traditionalist who hates gay marriage, I always tell them "Why? With gay marriage comes gay divorce." It's often very effective for them to open their minds up.
... but I don't mind gay divorce. I just think it really doesn't matter if there is gay divorce or not.
i get it... you whined and you got what you want... Congratz.
Now continue to jam it down my throat.
Sorry I guess... how does it really effect you anyways?
it effects society and human production.
... It doesn't really change anything.
Well if you don't like gay marriage so much either A-move somewhere else or B-don't have one like the rest of the straight people who aren't whining about it. Again the whole legalizing it wasn't generally to make straights unhappy.
Homosexual marriage is just another step towards the hell Marxists intend to create for us.
How?
Well, the idea is to keep redefining marriage, to include marriage with minors, marriage that involves more than two people, all kinds of open and modified marriages and so on. And then they will say that we don't need marriage at all, because anything can be marriage.

I know the answers to all the questions you asked but, I'm pro gay marriage. I'm straight
thanks for an amazing take #lovewins
You're welcome I'm glad you enjoyed :)
''our country was founded on Christianity''...
Uhm no... Not really xD.
America was found on the principle of being to practise religion (Christianity in their terms) lmao.
being able to practise religion freely* oops
I don't support gay marriage
However, I support marriage equality
This site is now fed up with GAY questions n mytakes, one of the immediate reasons I am deactivating soon.
This phase will run its course, just be patient!
Where ignorance is bliss tis folly to be wise. . .!
I don't know why I'd care what your thoughts and opinions on this are.
Then don't read it.

OP could've just wrote the entire thing without any personal pronouns and it would've been more effective.

How can you be christian and be for gay marriage it opposes your religion. Against God. Just curious?
I don't like the thought of gay marriage, and I certainly don't want one myself, but I don't want to tell other people who they can and can't be. Not everyone is going to be a Christian, so it's stupid to make everyone follow the rules of one religion. I'm ok with people getting a divorce, so shouldn't I be ok with gay marriage, too?

That's funny how someone's life choice that doesn't affect you, bothers you so much.
Why aren't u happy for LBGT people having an equal human right to something such as marriage? Why keep them discriminated against?
Maybe I don't get something. Please enlighten me.
What's next? People marrying animals or inanimate objects?
Actually there was a lady who got married to a dolphin. So yes.
Also there was a guy who got married to a game's female protagonist i think
For some points, I won't mention any specifically, you might want to do more research.
Also, you can't really call yourself Christian, if you don't beleive what you follow. It's like an atheist believing in God, they're not atheist are they? Or a Muslim who believes in Jesus. Or Hindus believing in just one god.
Okay.
people can still be religious, for just one rule being broken dosen't mean much. well thats my opinon. maybe to you its a lot diffrent. in my life i wasn't raised on religion, yes i find it a beautiful thing to follow, and its very intresting.
Then why don't you become part of a religion if you find it" a beautiful thing to follow" and "very interesting "? @moonlightwolke
