Canada has now legalized same-sex marriages

Just read it in the paper...

Same-sex marriage law passes 158-133

One thing that I haven't liked about this issue is that eveyone keeps saying "it's my right to get married", and having them say that the Charter of Rights and Freedoms was unconstitutional.

The truth is that this issue has nothing to do with the charter. Marriage is not a right granted to citizens of the country.

I'm glad that they came to the decision they did, but they are fighting for the wrong reasons, or at least, giving the wrong justifications.
 
Yep... pretty sad state of affairs. Soon we will also have the right to marry more than one partner... if we love them, why not? Morals have gone right out the window now, why stop there? Hell, lets give all those sick animal lovers rights too. I know a horse can't talk, but if he has that twinkle in his eye, who's to say it's not love and that they can't get married? Sound insane and stupid, eh? Well so does a man getting married to another man. It's gonna open the doors for so many other forms of legalized perversion.

Pretty soon we're going to be legalizing weed and cocaine because it should be our right to use drugs.

Wow...this should be interesting. Reserved for future commentary.

Morals? Who's morals? How is it immoral for two people who love each other to get married?

I wouldn't use the word "perversion" to describe gay marriage but I feel the same way about the opening doors bit.
 
Yeah, I like to stir up crap when somethin' pi$$es me off... hehehehe...

I really edited it before submitting it just in case it does open up a can of worms 🙂

Why do you think any of that stuff is wrong? Plus the animal argument is retarded because there is no way for a horse to consent.

believe it or not your thoughts are now a minority, time is changing and soon here in the US we will have the same laws. Oh and yes it is our right to smoke pot or snort coke, our government will be changing this injustice as well in a few more years. Im not touching your animal arguement thats just stupid animals cant concent to marriage. as far as pologmy, why not? if all people love each other there is no reason why our government should stop them from getting married.

Behold, the "Snow Ball" theory in its purest form. DennyD, did the invisible magic man in the clouds tell you it was wrong for gay couples to wed? Is that where you get your information from? Well my leprechaun said it was ok for them to wed, so I think everything is going to be fine.

:thumbsup:
Shouldn't it actually be better, morally speaking, for them to be married?
I mean sure, according to you (DennyD), it's immoral for gays to have sex at all, but sex outside of marriage is also immoral in the eyes of many.

You sound like a Bible-thumping zealot who wants to legislate your version of morality so all citizens must abide by it.

No invisible magic man told me anything... biology did. Is it a fluke that the male and female organs are designed to reproduce? That's what they're for... Not for two guys to play Alien Abduction and get anal probed with the other's penis... hehehehe...

I love opening cans of worms...

And damn your leprechauns... my bigfoots have been at war with them for centuries... (or would that be bigfeet? bigfi? Oh hell... sasquatch!)

Being a Christian is not the same as a bible thumper. But look at what you say to me... they want to force thier version of morality on us, so your point has no validity.

Believe it or not, the gays were already there. As a matter of fact, I'd be willing to bet there's gays in pretty much every country in the world. Sucks to be you.

Yeah, this is headed for an all out P&N flamewar any minute now.

Should be enough flames for some BBQ though. 😀

Edit: And isn't this thread a repost from yesterday anyway?

Yeah, even though I'm not for them getting married, I really don't feel that way about gay people...

But guys, he lives in Quebec, the French part of Canada. They're... "different" anyway.
