Thanked: 735I realize you like to make outrageous comments, but it seemed to me that you started the thread because you were interested in a discussion about the topics you posted.
So, how on the one hand, can you take a cavalier point of view towards human life, and on the other be seemingly distraught over the fact that gays in most cases are not granted legal marriage rights? Does the fact that they can't get married prevent them from spending the rest of their lives together if they so choose? And even if they can't what does it matter to you if you could care less about what other people think?
The biggest complaint that I hear in regards to the issue of so called equality in gay marriage is medical visitation rights, etc. Simple- you put in a legal document that you want your partner to be your medical proxy and/or have power of attorney and they will then most likely be abe to have full access to see you in the hospital, etc, etc. Right?
