There have been "unions" of couples throughout history but, the formal institution of marriage was created by the Catholic church. For that reason I think the government should butt the Hell out and let the church decided who they will or won't marry. I find it quite ironic that the people who are clamoring for the government to force churches to perform gay marriages are the same ones who scream the loudest for the seperation of church and state.
All that being said, I don't see any reason at all that gay couples shouldn't get the same benefits as any other married couple. I fully support government recogognized civil unions or whatever you want to call them. If the states want to allow it, fine by me. Go to the court house and git 'er done. By the same token, if a particular church wants to allow it, more power to them. But I firmly belive the government has no business dictating what ceremonies churches MUST perform. No way, no how.
Ok well what about this scenario. Kids look to their parents and want to be like their parents. What happens when Jimmy Invites Tommy over for a sleep over and Jimmy has two dads. Observes his Dads doing all kinds of shit and offers up to Tommy some suggestions for fun, "Tommy want to have fun like my dads do?" "Sure Jimmy what do they like to do?" Like are boys with same sex parents going to grow up thinking being gay and swallowing ungodly amounts of seminal fluid is the way to life?
Um.. I'm not really sure if you misread what I said but Where the fuck did I say I'm Bisexual haha. I was just offering up a hypothetical scenario to think about which will potentially occur more and more as more same sex couples continue to adopt kids or whatever. Like if a boy has two fathers, will he think its in his nature to marry a guy? Just a question I think haha and yes I enjoy the company of a nice moist vaginal canal in my presence as well so woohoo.
My point is you are attracted to what you are attracted too. No amount of influence will change that. It's an idiotic hypothetical question.
Where you got I was a bi-sexual was idiotic and maybe the way I decided to word it was as well idiotic. I see what your saying that its natural and kids can't help it but you don't think seeing your two fathers kiss would atleast slightly give you, a young boy, some influence to kiss other boys? I'm not against gay marriage just to throw that in here so I don't have stones thrown at me here, but just observing your two fathers at such a young and crucial age for development, you don't think there's a slight chance of impact?
I know, right? It's not like kids that grow up with an abusive parent tend to be abusive parents themselves, right?
Almost the same circumstance. You're better than that.
There's not long-term data on what effect gay parents will have on children. However, it's very well documented that parents have a very strong influence on their children. It's basic psychology.
Then how do straight parents have gay children?
Anyone who objects to gay marriage has yet to give a reason it should not be allowed. A real reason.

I'm a huge fan of state government. No thats not true really i like anything that moves us away from federal rule.
And I just can't latch on the the conversative Christian logic for not allowing gay marriage. So without a great degree of excitement or interest I don't object.
I am a Christian and I support Gay marriage...
For some, being gay is the effect of defective genes. For others, it's the effect of being sexually abused.
The idea that parents don't influence the life-style of their children is moronic, to say the least.
I've got a niece who is a lesbian. No sexual abuse, no defective genes.
