Why Gay Marriage Should Not Be Legalized
Now, in an argument about gay marriage, here is the jist of what I’ll usually hear from uneducated liberal nutjobs:
now i am straight, but this bothers me, for one, why does it matter if gay couples get married? it does not effect those of us who are straight, why does them getting married, and them being together need to be our business?? it isnt. in no way does it effect us, and i agree with those ladies on that show, everyone should be equal, and everyone should be allowed to make the decisions in their life. especially one that about marriage.
Wow! Where to start?
Gays have been getting married for many years. It was 13 years ago I went to a wedding with my parents for one of their gay friends. The Unitarian Church married them, and they got a lawyer to situate all their assets and belongings, and willed their things to one another. With in that same year I attended 4 such weddings. So the problem is not whether or not gays can get married. The problem is they want government to recognize and sanction their marriage, and if you think this will not affect anyone who is straight or has tradition family values, you are fooling yourself.
If the Government acknowledges gay marriage, then it becomes government’s roll to impose these beliefs on people who do not believe. How? By teaching homosexuality in public schools, and to kids whose families may not agree with that point of view. In Massachusetts, where gay marriage has been sanctioned, gay storybooks have been introduced to young grade school kids! This is not appropriate but is legal because they sanctioned gay marriage.
The girl I quoted mentioned everyone should be equal; well let’s think about it a second… To be equal something has to be THE SAME as something else. Can we agree on that?
The way I love my girlfriend is the same way as most of my male friends love their significant others. They way and how are the same thereby are equal to one another. A man loving another man or a woman loving another woman is NOT the same as how I love my gf, or how my gf loves me, thereby is NOT equal. The obvious logistical physical acts of love that are VASTLY DIFFERENT from when a man and a woman are together, so that’s NOT equal. The emotional relationship between and man and a woman are HUGELY different that when a man loves a man or woman loves a woman. NOT equal at all!
Should gays get married? Yes, let them go to their local Unitarian Church and get a lawyer who can get them all situates to live their lives happily together forever! Should Government sanction gay marriage? No. It’s bad for our society as a whole.
The love of a man and woman is what has been the standard in this country, even the world for thousands and thousands of years. That’s how the human race has continued along the timeline. There is something to be said for family in this world to continue on our legacies.
